The Panasonic 4K Camcorder you've described appears to be a feature-rich recording device, providing high-quality video capturing capabilities with the added benefit of 4K resolution. It's designed for users needing a potent combination of advanced features and high-resolution recording. It's capable of recording ultra-high-definition 4K video at 30 frames per second in the MP4 format, which is ideal for capturing clear, detailed footage with higher resolution than Full HD. As with the FHD model, this camcorder is capable of taking high-resolution 25.9MP still photos presumably using the same kind of sensor. The 1/2.5" 8.57MP Back Side Illuminated sensor provides better low-light performance, which is a particularly useful feature when combined with the 4K video capabilities.

A large 24x optical zoom range and 48x digital iZoom paired with a wide and bright maximum aperture of f/1.8 allows for significant versatility in various lighting conditions and when trying to capture distant subjects. The 25mm wide-angle lens makes it possible to capture expansive scenes, which is great for landscapes, group shots, and ensuring you can record in tight spaces. The fast F1.8 lens aperture allows more light to hit the sensor, achieving better low-light performance and allowing a shallower depth of field. A smart 4K 32x intelligent zoom feature that allows you to go beyond the optical zoom range with minimal loss of quality when recording in 4K.

The camcorder provides 5-axis stabilization enhances the steadiness of handheld shooting by compensating for camera shake across five different axes, critical for maintaining smooth and clear video. A convenient, 3.0" LCD touchscreen for easy operation, focusing, and quick playback review and in-camera editing saved to 2K allows you to perform basic editing tasks directly in the camcorder and downscale 4K footage to 2K within the camera. A 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi provides wireless control and file transfer capabilities, making it easy to manage your footage and control the camcorder remotely.

Auto and manual focus gives the user the option to rely on the camcorder's autofocus system or switch to manual focus for more precise control. The USB-C 2.0 and micro-HDMI ports ensures versatile connectivity for data transfer and video output, with USB-C offering a modern standard and fast connection. A feature that can embed the date and time into the video footage, which can be useful for documentation or archival purposes. It offers flexibility in video formats, with Dolby Audio ensuring high-quality sound recording. The inclusion of an audio input allows for the connection of external microphones for enhanced audio quality, while the remote port enables remote operation convenience.


Product Features in Detail

 

An Easy Way to Record Memories and Moments That Last
The F1.8 lens and large MOS sensor let you preserve your memories in vivid 4K images. In addition to the stable shooting when zooming, the 4K cropping function offers desired results. There are also various shooting settings such as 2K for a longer period of time with a smaller capacity.


Brilliant 4K Image Quality
Take great 4K footage with a stunning Wide-Angle 25mm*, Optical 24x Zoom. The large MOS sensor and bright F1.8 lens deliver excellent low-light performance.
* 35mm camera equivalent. Available only with 4K 25p/24p and 2K 24p mode.


Accurately Capture the Moment
Get clear action shots with state-of-the-art high-precision AF and Hybrid O.I.S. The high-definition, 1,555k-dot LCD monitor has an electrostatic touch panel for easy menu selection.


Shoot in 4K and Edit Later
Edit videos shot in 4K with just the camera without a PC and save them in 2K. The footage can be edited after they are shot by zooming in, correcting camera shake, chasing the main subject, etc.


4K Premium Image Quality
High-definition 4K shooting gives you highly natural, realistic images. The 4K lens covers the range from 25mm* wide-angle to 600mm tele with a 24x zoom achieved by the 4-Drive Lens System. The large 1/2.5-type (1/2.5-inch) sensor and bright F1.8 lens offer exceptional low-light performance. You get uncompromising picture quality at all times.
* 35mm camera equivalent. Available only with 4K 25p/24p and 2K 24p mode.


Ideally Designed for Video Shooting
Whether taking zoom shots or wide-angle shooting, you can capture footage without the need to change lenses by simply turning the power on. The ergonomically designed grip fits snugly in the hand, allowing comfortable shooting for long periods of time without tiring yourself out, even with one hand.


5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S. +
Uses five-axis correction to thoroughly suppress blurring all the way from wide-angle to powerful zoom shots. Ball O.I.S. system reduces wear on the drive section, and greatly improves correction for small-amplitude hand-shake.


4K Cropping to Create Better Footage in 2K
When zooming takes your subjects out of the frame, or causes hand-shake, 4K Cropping solves the problem. Cutouts with 2K quality from 4K images can be easily done using only the camera, entirely after shooting.
