NEWARK, N.J., Oct. 28, 2024 - Panasonic is pleased to announce two new camcorders, the HC-VX3 with 4K recording capabilities and premium picture quality, and the HC-V900 with 2K recording capabilities and stunning picture quality.
The two models feature superb optical performance such as a wide-angle 25mm in 4K for VX3, and 28.9mm in 2K for both VX3 and V900, 24x optical zoom lens and achieve quick and accurate focusing to enhance the AF function critical in video capture.
The optical image stabilizer has HYBRID O.I.S., featuring 5-Axis correction with the Ball O.I.S. System for added smoothness to reduce the blur caused by camera shake during zooming. The Active Contrast optimizes the contrast under minimal lighting conditions, capturing enhanced images with clarity.
To meet the latest standards, both HC-VX3 and HC-V900 come with USB-C terminal, remote control port, and an LCD with higher resolution and electrostatic touchscreen which all improve the operability from the previous models (VX1 and V800 which were released in 2018). Moreover, HC-VX3 is equipped with Timestamp recordability and Audio LINE-IN which will increase the usage in professional scenarios.
Panasonic continues to offer camcorders to respond to the needs of all users ranging from family users who want to record happy moments in impressive images to video enthusiasts who pursue full-fledged 4K video quality.
Both camcorders will be available for purchase at the end of November 2024 at valued channel partners. The HC-VX3 for $899.99 and the HC-V900 for $699.99.
