Review on Panasonic X2000 4K Professional Camcorder: 24x Optical Zoom, WiFi HD Live Streaming, 3G SDI Output, HC-X2000 (USA Black) by Brian Piecuch

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Promising compact camcorder

First, the camera delivers excellent image quality in both 4K and FHD. Its compact size and features make it perfect for those on the go when you need to take your camera with you and shoot with minimal setup time. I think with the increase of online broadcasting, especially for places of worship, this camera will suit many single cameras. I bought it for its compact size, SDI output and hoping the low light capability would work in the environment I'm shooting in most of the time (inside a building with not very good lighting). I give the camera 4 stars because it is compact and packed with features. It was just right for both of my setup needs, but the part that didn't work so well was the low-light capability part. Low light ability is really bad. If you are using the device in a location where you cannot control the lighting and the lighting is not ideal, you may get dark or grainy images if you increase the gain to compensate. Otherwise, if you're shooting in very bright environments, like outdoors, or in a controlled environment where you can control the lighting, this is a perfect fit. Before you buy, think about what is important to you and your setup and where you have to compromise. Unfortunately I came back and left with the Sony PXW-Z90V. For a few bucks, you get amazing low-light performance with the same features.
