How To Use The Panasonic HC-X1200E Camcorder

Record 4K Video Anywhere

The Panasonic HC-X1200E Camcorder provides enthusiasts and professionals with high-quality video and seamless operability. Equipped with a 1/2.5-inch 8.29 megapixel MOS sensor and Venus engine, the HC-X1200E combines fast processing, suppressed rolling shutter distortion and reduced noise to deliver high-quality video. Built to record up to 4K 60p Full HD 4:2:0 10-bit and FHD 120p slow motion, it meets a range of video needs whether you’re filming for your hobbies, content, or events. The palm-style camcorder is exceptionally lightweight at just 800g (excluding the lens hood, battery, and SD card), allowing you to shoot comfortably for long periods.

Capture Smooth, Sharp Footage On the Move

With a high-performance lens, precision AF and robust hybrid image stabilisation, the Panasonic HC-X1200E Camcorder ensures high-quality footage when on the move. The wide-angle 25mm f1.8-4.0 lens provides high resolution and contrast, rendering sharp, crisp images with excellent detail and shading. With 24x optical zoom, it has the highest zoom available in semi-professional palm-style camcorders, allowing you to get closer to your subject and capture finer details.

Alongside the lens, fast, high-precision face-detection AF ensures your intended subject is always captured in sharp clarity. Ball O.I.S and 5-axis Hybrid O.I.S also compensate for excess movement when shooting handheld or zoomed-in, supporting smooth, shake-free results in any scenario to give your footage that high-end edge.

Monitor Simultaneously With the High-Resolution LCD Display and EVF

The Panasonic HC-X1200E Camcorder’s 3.5-inch LCD 2,760K-dot monitor and 1,770K-dot OLED viewfinder provide excellent clarity and user-friendly functionality. With impressive resolution, the LCD monitor offers high visibility even in bright sunlight and highly responsive touchscreen operation for easy navigation through menus and quick focusing. The monitor rotates up to 270 degrees to help you achieve optimal positioning for monitoring regardless of your shooting angle. The OLED EVF also has a tiltable design with a large eyecup for easier viewing. The HC-X1200E supports simultaneous output of the LCD and EVF, enabling you to view both. The image will be constantly displayed on the LCD even if you are viewing your shot through the EVF, providing clear and flexible viewing options.

Enjoy a Seamless, Professional Workflow

The Panasonic HC-X1200E Camcorder offers creators, videographers, and filmmakers various features to support smooth operation and seamless workflows. The HC-X1200E Camcorder has two manual rings with improved response for precise control over zoom, focus, and iris. You can vary the zoom speed by applying pressure to the zoom seesaw switch on the body. ND filters are built into the lens to minimise the amount of incident light hitting the camera’s sensor. You can choose these filters (1/4, 1/16, 1/64, or CLEAR) to match your shooting environment or use them to select a slow shutter speed in bright daylight for various creative effects suited to your project.

The HC-X1200E also has other professional video production features that support your filming process. One feature is camera image adjustment functions for in-camera editing, such as 8-Mode Gamma and 16-Axis Independent Colour Correction. Professional assist functions such as waveform monitor display/vector shape, Zebra pattern, flash band correction, and more provide options for enhanced control over your camera’s output. There is also a Shockless Auto White Balance feature for smooth transitions when switching white balance modes and USB PD via the camera’s USB-C port for power supply and charging when the camera is off.
