Manual exposure, gain : 6 - 17dB
Timeline - 30fps, no grading.
OIS+Hybrid IS : Off
Profile : Still, Dynamic Range Stretch - Off
(other similar models in the family - HC-X1500, AG-CX7, AG-CX8 & AG-CX10)
Audio track : Dream Escape # The Tides
nice!
Very eye catching images , very good! Thank you! If this was a 1" bottom chip, it would be perfect!
The quality is quite good considering its wide 16:9 chip (where most 1" aren't). Also, at this price point, I don't think we have many choices that shoots 4K 60p and 422 options.
Birds seemed to enjoy the rain a lot 😄
Lately, it’s been raining almost every day lol
Can you do touch screen manual focus ? Very nice video!!
I am afraid it doesn't. I use the the manual focus ring most of the time. It does support Face AF in Auto mode.
Sorry, I am correcting my earlier reply, as I just noticed that touch AF is available in Auto mode.
So beautiful, I will buy this camcorder definitely
Hi, thank you and I hope my videos help and make this camcorder into your shopping list.
Did you have a rain cover for the camera? I have been careful not to use my camera in bad weather conditions.
Hi, I don’t have rain cover at the moment. But I have been using the camera under very light rain condition. So far, it’s still ok, but not recommended. A rain cover is still preferred.
Thanks for that, yes I would agree a rain cover is a necessity. During bad weather days I use my GH5 for filming. Have to say though the HC-x2000 is a great camera as I shoot in a news /documentary style so not a lot of time to set up shots . I have really appreciated the auto features of this camera and so far it has not let me down. Just one more quick question I read in one of your other posts that you have filmed in 10-bit, I edit on a Mac with premier Pro would 10-bit be too much for my system?
Hi, I think it really depends on the type of projects that you work on. If your project requires advanced color grading, then 10-bit is a bonus. As for hardware, if those h264/h265 clips are transcoded into easier to compute Pro-Res (albeit much larger in filesize), it shouldn’t be a problem for more recent Macs, say newer than 2016. However, editing native h264/h265 files can be very cpu intensive and it requires hardware that support acceleration to decode/encode them. Those small projects that I did in 10-bit, were edited in FCP running on a 13” MacBook Pro with intel 8th gen CPU. The experience wasn’t very pleasant but doable. I have recently switched over to M1 based Macs and will be trying it out soon. Sorry, I am not able to comment on Premiere running under OSX since I have stopped using this program 10 years ago.
@@yk3550 Thanks very much for your answers/advice.
You’re welcome.
Hi could i ask for your advice? I'm undecided between getting Sony AX700 or Panasonic HC X1500, what is your opinion regarding this matter? I mainly shoot travel video with a few documentary / interview style video on the side.
Hi Azri, the X1500 has the reach, 4K 60fps, 10-bit colour for better grading, but the AX700 has a more sensitive sensor and HLG. I suggest the latter which suits you better based on the use cases you mentioned. Both have optional XLR adaptors should you need to have better audio input in the future.
@@yk3550 hi yk, thank you for the unbiased opinion. Over the time that you have been using the Panasonic HC-X2000 to record outdoor activities, have there ever be a time where you are left wanting bigger sensor on it? The crazy zoom on the Panasonic really does make it hard for me to make a decision.
@@azriramli6939 Hi Azri, referring back to your requirement (documentary / interview), I think sensitivity is slightly more important, especially if you are conducting interview indoor under poor lighting condition. The larger 1" sensor will give you cleaner footage. And I suppose you won't be doing much grading. It's actually not quite easy to compare them apple to apple since the Panasonic has a wider 25mm focal length vs the Sony at 29mm, which comes handy shooting in tight spaces and their difference in terms of sensitivity may not be that much of a diff. since the former starts at f1.8 vs the latter at f2.8 (almost 2 stops brighter lens vs 2 stops more sensitive 1" sensor).
And I forget to mention, being able to shoot at 4K 60fps comes handy - smoother slow mo 4K 30p, or down convert to 1080 60p. However, you lose the option to shoot in HLG which the Sony delivers.
@@yk3550 Hi yk, thank you so much for you detailed explanation. I will take all the info given and mull it over. Hopefully ill come with a suitable conclusion for my need.
@@azriramli6939 Hi, you're welcome. Happy shopping and filming!
it's realy greate camera for you?
Hi, yes, especially when I need long zoom in a small package during travel and nature exploration. It’s also useful for live streaming events.
