Panasonic HC-X2000E 4K 60p Camcorder

OVERVIEW
The HC-X2000 is the industrys smallest and lightest 4K/60p camcorder, making it perfect for professional shooting on the go. It features advanced functions and a low power consumption, thanks to a new ultrathin fan that disperses heat. The lens offers a wide-angle of 25mm and a 24x optical zoom, with the ability to achieve 32x zoom in 4K and 48x zoom in FHD. The camera also has high-precision autofocus and 5-axis HYBRID image stabilization for smooth and clear footage.

Additionally, the HC-X2000 supports 4:2:2 10-bit internal recording, allowing for more color information to be captured. It also has the capability for full HD live streaming and wireless control from a tablet or smartphone. The built-in LED video light provides reliable shooting in low light situations, with the ability to adjust the brightness from 30% to 100% using the dimming dial on the handle.

About The Panasonic HC-X2000E 4K 60p Camcorder
Industry’s Smallest and Lightest 4K/60p Camcorder

Professional shooting everywhere: HC-X2000 packs advanced functions in a well-balanced body to excel both in functionality and mobility. A new ultrathin fan disperses the heat to allow the construction of the industry’s smallest and lightest 4K/60p-camcorder and a very low power consumption.

Flexible Framing with 25mm* Wide-Angle and 24x Optical Zoom

The lens covers the range from 25mm wide-angle to 600mm tele with a 24x zoom. i.ZOOM achieves 32x zoom with 4K resolution, and 48x zoom with FHD.

* 35mm camera equivalent.

High-Precision AF

Face detection helps you keeping the focus on your main subject – even when it is turned sideways to the camera. Distance and exposure are being tracked precicely incorporating the live data read-out from the sensor and sophisticated colour recognition.

5-axis HYBRID Image Stabilisation

In addition to the Optical Image Stabilisation in the lens, Electronic Image Stabilisation detects and corrects camera shake. The lens O.I.S. System incorporates balls to drive the motor, which reduces friction and improves the correction of blurring caused through natural hand held camera shake.

4:2:2 10-bit Internal Recording

Allowing you to capture more colour information in 4:2:2 10-bit, the HC-X2000 supports 10-bit Full HD in 59.94p/50p (100 Mbps) and 4K-recording in 29.97p/25p (200 Mbps) on SD-card. Via HDMI-output, you can record 4K/10-bit files even in 59.94p/50p.

Full-HD Live Streaming

RTSP/RTP/RTMP/RTMPS-compatible HD streaming enables direct connection and distribution of relays for concerts, sports events, and news flashes to Facebook, YouTube, etc.

Wireless Control from a Tablet or Smartphone

A Wi-Fi module is built-in, so Wi-Fi connection of only the body is possible. Using a tablet or smartphone app HC ROP, wireless camera settings, and lens control are also possible.

Built-in LED Video Light

The video light is extremely bright (70 lux at 1 meter) for reliable shooting in dimly lit places. The Dimming Dial on the handle can be used to easily dim the brightness from 30%-100%.
