Overview

The Panasonic HC-X2 4K Camcorder is a 4K professional camcorder with high mobility, 4K 60p/50p 10bit recording, HLG and 13-stop V-Log for HDR and HD live streaming capabilities.

Professional All-in-one 4K 60p Camcorder
With its 1.0-type (1.0-inch) sensor, the X2 provides powerful support in event shootings and more with its optical performance that reliably captures the subject and the mobility that only a handheld camera with an integrated lens can offer.

Wide 24.5mm and Optical 20x Zoom Lens
The lens covers the range from 24.5mm wide-angle to 490mm tele with a 20x zoom. i.ZOOM achieves 24x zoom with 4K resolution, and 32x zoom with FHD.

Versatile Recording Mode
Supports a high bit rate of 200 Mbps for 59.94p/50p video recording with HEVC (LongGOP/10 bit 4:2:0/MOV) codec. The Super Slow-motion function supports 10-bit recording in FHD at 120/100fps and 4K (UHD) VFR from 2 to 60fps for over-cranked and under-cranked shots to allow for highly creative video expression.

4K High-Precision AF
Face Detection precisely captures subjects on-site free from out of focus problems and insufficient exposure. Also, by adding color recognition, tracking subjects is improved, without interruption, when the face moves to either side.

5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S.+
In both UHD/FHD modes, in addition to Optical Image Stabilization, Electronic Image Stabilization detects and corrects handshake in the 5-axis direction. The Ball O.I.S. System reduces friction in the drive section, especially improving the correction of small-amplitude blurring.

4:2:2 10-bit Internal Recording
Records a 4:2:2 10-bit color profile of up to LongGOP UHD 29.97p/25p (150 Mbps), or FHD 59.94p/50p (100 Mbps) with SD cards. Outputs 10-bit UHD 59.94p/50p images via HDMI.

HLG/13-stop V-Log for HDR Video Production
The X2 is equipped with HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) shooting mode, one of the standards related to HDR. In addition, it supports V-Log, which is also available on the Panasonic VARICAM cinema camera and LUMIX mirrorless cameras, providing 13 stops of latitude. When combined with a V-Log compatible camera, color grading provides a uniform image in post-production.

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.
