REVIEW: Panasonic DVX200 Camcorder

Sourced through Scoop.it from: www.creativeplanetnetwork.com

PANASONIC DVX200 is a 4k beast, with a Leica Dicomar 12.8–167mm, f/2.8–4.5 fixed lens and a ‘four thirds’ sensor. The camera records to SDHC or SDXC cards in a variety of formats, from 4096×2160 24fps down to 1920/1080 at 120fps. The CODEC used is generally H.264, packaged as MOV or MP4, but there is an option for AVCHD, and internal recording is always 8-bit 4:2:0. It is possible to record 4:2:2 externally, either 8-bit or 10-bit, though selecting the latter prevents simultaneous internal recording.
