PANASONIC 4K 60P HC-X2000E CAMCORDER WITH VW-HU1 HANDLE & LED LIGHT
SMALLEST AND LIGHTEST 4K 60P PROFESSIONAL CAMCORDERS WITH WIDE-ANGLE 25MM LENS AND 24X OPTICAL ZOOM
Packed
into a compact body to offer the mobility and portability demanded by
professionals, the new models enable high-quality 4K 60p recording and
achieve high-spec optical performance with a Wide-Angle 25mm Lens and
32x i.ZOOM (4K recording). are packed with professional functions, such
as Two Manual Rings, an ND Filter, a Built-in LED Video Light, and
24-bit High Resolution Linear PCM Audio Recording. In addition,
Panasonic's exclusive high-precision AF provides high-speed, accurate
focusing for both 4K and Full-HD shooting. For video recording, the
models support 4:2:2 10bit Internal Recording and the new,
high-efficiency HEVC codec. Various recording formats can also be
selected, and built-in Wi-Fi supports HD Live Streaming using just the
camcorder
OPTICAL PERFORMANCE FOR PRECISE SHOOTING
The
integrated lens offers a remarkably powerful, optical 24x zoom that
ranges from 25mm wide angle to 600mm tele. i.ZOOM achieves 32x at 4K
resolution, and 48x at FHD. The 4-Drive Lens System drives the four lens
groups independently, thus achieving the optical 24x zoom in a compact
body size.
With a LEICA
Dicomar Lens that has cleared the stringent inspection criteria of Leica
Camera AG in terms of lens resolution, contrast, etc., stunningly
beautiful images are produced while suppressing flaring and ghosts. Two
Manual Rings are provided, one for focusing and the other for zoom or
iris operation. The Manual Rings are designed with different sizes so
the appropriate ring can be controlled without error. ND Filters can be
selected from 1/4, 1/16, 1/64, and Clear, while glass is newly used as a
countermeasure against scorching from sunlight condensation.
HIGH-SPEED, HIGH-PRECISION AUTOFOCUS
Superior
focusing speed, stability and tracking performance for both 4K and
Full-HD is achieved thanks to Face Detection AF/AE together with the
precise focus lens drive. Face Detection AF/AE provides precise focusing
and sufficient exposure for subjects. In addition, subject tracking
with colour recognition can be activated by just touching the LCD panel.
5-AXIS HYBRID O.I.S.
For
both UHD and FHD modes, in addition to O.I.S. (Optical Image
Stabilization), Electronic Image Stabilization operates to detect and
correct handshake in 5 axes, including rotational blurring. This
provides strong correction under unstable conditions, such as low-angle
and high-angle shooting. The Ball O.I.S. System reduces friction on the
drive section, achieving delicate correction even for small-amplitude
handshake. This produces beautiful images with suppressed handshake even
at high, 24x optical zoom.
COMPACT BODY WITH HEAT-DISPERSING DESIGN
A
heat-dispersing design including a thin, newly-developed fan has
enabled the design of the industry's smallest and lightest camcorder
with integrated lens capable of 4K 60p recording. By pulling in air from
the rear panel of the camera and efficiently dispersing heat from the
front panel, reliable, extended shooting is achieved.
HIGH-QUALITY RECORDING WITH VERSATILE MODES
The
Venus Engine, which contains technologies accumulated with LUMIX, is
newly incorporated in these camcorders. This enables 4:2:2 10-bit
internal recording with maximum 29.97p in UHD, and maximum 59.94p in
FHD.
When set for 10-bit
recording, the camcorder delivers 4K 60p 4:2:2 10-bit HDMI output,
enabling high-quality image capture with an external recorder. New,
highly-efficient HEVC recording (LongGOP/10-bit 4:2:0/MOV) is also
supported for recording 59.97p at a high bit rate of 200 Mbps. As for
file formats, in addition to MOV, MP4, and AVCHD, the AG-CX10 also
supports the ideal P2 MXF for the editing system for broadcast stations,
and recording by the AVC-Intra/AVC-LongG codecs is supported.
In
FHD mode, slow-motion recording at 120 fps (for 59.94 Hz)/100 fps (for
50 Hz) is possible. 10-bit recording is supported, and full-frame images
with the image area uncropped are obtained even at high frame rates.
Auto focus can also be used even during Super Slow-motion Recording.
FUNCTIONAL DESIGN TO SUPPORT PROFESSIONAL WORK
For
shooting in dim lighting, a bright video light controlled by an
adjustable dimmer dial is built into the handle, allowing brightness to
be adjusted from 30% to 100%.
The
3.5-inch monitor has 2,760K-dots of resolution, twice as much as the
conventional monitor making it approximately 2x brighter and providing
higher legibility even under bright sunlight. An electrostatic touch
panel has also improved the operating ease when selecting menu items.
Since the 1,555K-dot tiltable viewfinder and LCD output simultaneously,
the image being recorded can also be confirmed in the LCD monitor while
viewing it on the EVF, thus improving work efficiency. Also, to support
fast, accurate manual focusing, Focus Assist functions are equipped,
including Expand, Peaking and One-push AF.
The
included battery does not protrude when attached and enables
approximately 4.5 hours of continual operation, while the Handle Unit
(VW-HU1) is added as an accessory, It is easily detached and equipped
with a 2-channel XLR Audio Input, audio control, and LED light.
Operation of the zoom lever attached to the Handle Unit maintains a
constant zoom speed, which can be set in 7 steps from the menu.
VERSATILE NETWORK FUNCTIONS EXPAND WORKFLOW
A
Wi-Fi module is built-in, so there is no need for a separate wireless
LAN module, and Wi-Fi connection is possible with only the camcorder.
Using a tablet application HC ROP, wireless remote control, including
camera settings and lens control, can be set.
RTSP/RTP/RTMP/RTMPS-Compatible HD Streaming allows direct connection and
streaming over Facebook, YouTube, etc., of concerts, sports events, and
news flashes.
