Review on π₯ Black Panasonic HC-VXF990 Video Camera by Keiko Yapon α
I'm happy with it, the price and the quality, I recommend to buy it.
If there is no money or opportunity to buy a Sony FDR-AX700 (about 150), then take this camera or its analogue Sony FDR-AXP55 (about 60) I wanted to take the Sony FDR-AXP55, but there was not enough money. Now I'm saving up for the Sony FDR-AX700. In general, the camera is good, but as the manufacturer says "Support for 4K video", it is only "support" - good 4K is obtained only with ideal lighting, as soon as you go into the shade, "blurry" or noise appears. If you shoot in 4K, then this is only in order to mount video with less loss and subsequent scaling to FullHD. The camera was bought from an official partner of Panasonic.
Pros
- Lots of slow and fast motion functions, good optics, easy to hold in hand, good and smooth optical zoom, VERY good optical stabilization, suitable for amateur video on vacation. It is possible to connect from one to three video sources for picture-in-picture recording, video sources can be like Wi-Fi cameras, but I used a mobile phone - it turns out cool. Only the mobile phone should be with a good vidyuhi. After training and buying a lens on Alik to increase the viewing angle, you can shoot cool videos.
Cons
- During a sunny day, it is difficult to see the picture on the screen; in low light, there is a lot of noise. When turned on, the camera "warms up" for a few seconds and at this moment the record button is blocked, so quick shooting, such as "saw-shot-on-the-run", will not work.
