Description of Camcorder Panasonic HC-X1 black

4K 60p/50p video recordingSuperior image quality and high sensitivity with 1.0" (inch) large sensor in 4K resolution Large 1.0" (inch) sensor (approx. 9.46 megapixels at 4K24p and 8.79 megapixels at UHD, FHD) balanced in depth of field, picture quality and sensitivity, allowing for 4K24p, UHD 60p/50p and FHD 60p/50p multi-format recording. New LEICA DICOMAR 4K lens In addition to the widest 24mm angle on the market, models with 1.0" (inch) sensors are equipped with the world''s first 20x optical zoom. Thanks to the use of a 4-drive optical system that independently controls each of the four lens groups , we managed to achieve a 20x optical zoom while maintaining a compact body. Professional Shooting and High Mobility Despite a wealth of professional features such as a triple manual ring, ND filter, XLR terminals, and dual SD card slot, this compact camera allows for steady handheld shooting. Ideal for field work where mobility is a must. Smart Autofocus (AF) Since focusing is critical when shooting in 4K resolution, we have achieved high-speed, accurate and stable autofocus performance by using a micro focus motor module. Autofocus AF settings can also be adjusted to suit the appropriate speed, tracking sensitivity, and focus area width. In this way, the camera can meet the specific needs of the user for autofocus performance, depending on the subject being photographed and the application. Advanced stabilization system O.I.S. The correction area has been expanded to 900% of the normal area to achieve powerful correction for low- and high-angle shots. In FHD mode, the 5-axis HYBRID O.I.S.+ image stabilizer, which adds electronic image stabilization to optical stabilization, recognizes and corrects 5-axis movements.

Good value for money, I recommend it.

In general, a good camera, I shot a star behind the screen. The screen is really disappointing. The photo shows the camera itself, the camera screen and the view through the viewfinder of the eye - this photo was hard to take, so its quality is not very good.

Pros
  • Very light camera, many settings, including white balance can be manually adjusted completely in Kelvin. Good sensor sensitivity. Cheap media.
Cons
  • The main drawback of this camera is the screen. In sunny weather or in strong light, it is very faded, it is impossible to shoot and you have to shoot through the viewfinder. And also the font of information inscriptions on it is very small and thin. The screen is poorly distinguishable, which is extremely inconvenient when working with the camera. In the viewfinder, however, all the inscriptions are clearly visible.

I definitely recommend buying, I didnt notice any disadvantages.

A good camera for amateur and reportage shooting without difficult conditions. It is quite possible to create suitable content with its help. You can stream via hdmi. I could not find a suitable wifi whistle in 2022, but my native one is expensive. I definitely liked the grip of the camera, it is convenient to work, the picture is pleasant and allows you to edit. A tolerable stabilizer, but again, without miracles and will not allow you to exclude picture shaking when walking, for example. It…

Pros
  • Good picture for further processing. Intra-chamber 8-bit, which will not let you run away, but it’s not to say that it’s difficult to work with them. A sharp lens on all fr, a hood with a built-in "closer". The built-in nd filter is difficult to surprise in this format, but it is there and does its job perfectly without changing the color of the picture. Two memory cards in different modes, good "pre" for two microphones. The included battery is not the most capacious, but I have enough for 4 hours of shooting. Battery included with fast charging. Charging unit for two batteries. The camera is not too heavy, but it's a matter of taste and preparation, nevertheless. The stabilizer is both positive and negative. Without magic, but allows you to shoot handheld at a large focal length. There is a macro mode, and it is quite working.
Cons
  • 4k is not working in my opinion. I shoot in 60x uhd mode, mostly. Inconvenient switching at 120x, and in general, camera control raises questions and disputes. The focal length control is very sensitive and pulls the picture at the slightest touch. The built-in microphone is both a plus and a minus, without miracles, but it writes clearly. There is no sdi, unlike the twin brother ux180. Obscenely expensive native batteries and accessories. Blind built-in monitor. Focusing is still slow and sometimes “leaves”, but in general it does not cause disgust.
