HC-X1 Camcorders - Panasonic New Zealand

Features

4K 60p/50p Video

High Image Quality and Sensitivity with a 1.0-type (inch) 4K Sensor

An effective 1.0-type (inch) sensor (approx. 9.46 megapixels at 4K 24p and 8.79 megapixels at UHD, FHD) is balanced with depth of field, picture quality, and sensitivity. This enables multi-format 4K 24p, UHD 60p/50p and FHD 60p/50p recording.

Newly Developed LEICA DICOMAR 4K Lens

Industry's Widest 24mm* and Optical 20x Zoom

In addition to the industry's widest 24mm wide angle, models with the 1.0-type (inch) sensor feature the world's first** optical 20x zoom. Using a 4-Drive Lens System to drive each of four lens groups achieves both the optical 20x zoom and a compact body.

* 35mm equivalent. At 4K24p (aspect ratio 17:9). 25.4mm at UHD/FHD (aspect ratio 16:9).
** World's first camcorder with an integrated lens and a sensor larger than 1.0-type (inch). (As of July 2016)

Professional 4K Camcorder

Professional Imaging with High Mobility

In spite of its many professional functions, such as the Triple Manual Ring, ND Filter, XLR Terminals, and Dual SD Card Slot, this compact design enables stable, handheld shooting. Ideal for field work where mobility is a must.

Intelligent AF

High-Speed, High-Precision AF Technology in 4K

For critical 4K focusing, high-speed, precise, and stable AF performance is achieved by a Micro Drive Focus Unit. AF settings can also be customised to adjust speed, tracking sensitivity, and area width. This matches the user's intended AF operation to the subject and application.

Advanced O.I.S.

Clear, Blurless Results

The correction area was expanded to 900%* of the conventional area** to strongly correct low- and high-angle shots. In FHD mode, a 5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S. + that adds electronic image stabilisation to optical image stabilisation detects and corrects 5 axes.

* Except 4K 24p mode.
