20x Optical Zoom with 4-Drive Lens System for Premium Quality

The Panasonic HC-V770 camcorder utilizes a 20x optical zoom with 4-drive lens system for premium picture quality. By driving each lens group separately, drive ranges are reduced to deliver high-image quality and high-powered zooming. It also keeps the body compact, even with a 20x optical zoom.

HDR (High Dynamic Range) Movie Suppresses Blown Highlights

Featuring HDR Movie function, the HC-V770 captures clear shots with excellent detail in both bright and dark areas. By combining two images taken with different exposure times, the HDR Movie function suppresses blown highlights and blocked shadows for crisper, clearer videos. Even in difficult shooting situations, such as backlighting, you can easily record true-to-life videos with excellent gradation.

Wireless Twin Camera Uses Your Smartphone as a Sub Camera

Using your smartphone's Wi-Fi, you can shoot from two angles at the same time. And because you're shooting with two different cameras, you shoot from any distance or angle you choose for a variety of Picture-in-Picture images.

BSI Sensor Minimizes Image Noise

The BSI (Back Side Illumination Sensor) of the HC-V770 has a large effective area with 6.03M effective pixels, suppressing noise even when shooting in dimly lit conditions, such as indoor scenes or nightscapes. It delivers stunningly beautiful images even down to the tiniest details.

    Very good product at a good price, but not perfect
    4 Stars
    Very good product at a good price, but not perfect
    I only used the camera for 2 days but here is my first opinion: the video quality is extremely good. I took some video sample by using all the available recording formats and in my opinion it records best in avchd mode, 1080p. You can use 5.1 sound only with this video format. Recording in mp4 only allows 2ch sound. If there is quiet in the room, you will here a background noise (some kind of white noise, like a fan) but when you record actual sound that background noise is gone. Compression is very good in avchd mode: 1 minute of video is about 90 mb (1080p). In mp4 is about 350 mb. When you take pictures while recording, the maximum size of the picture will be 12megapixels but when switching to photo mode you can take pictures at 24megapixels. Picture quality is awesome. I noticed a problem with the focus when moving the camera to fast but you get a warning on the screen that you are moving too fast. In low light conditions, if you record a screen, it changes the colors (example: purple is recorded as blue) - i used auto mode all the time. Also, when using the zoom, if you go to the max value, everything will be blurry and you will have to zoom out a little bit to have the subject clear again. All my tests where in good light conditions. I tried shooting outside during the night but i did not get great results. Because I only tried for 2 minutes during the night i cannot provide an educated opinion yet. You cannot use the menu with the buttons of the camera, only by touching the lcd screen. I am satisfied with the purchase. I will try to shoot some videos soon and upload them on youtube. If any future customer is intersted in seeing some video samples just leave a message and I will provide you with the link.Later edit: after using the camera for a few days i found out some issues. First of all, night pictures aree terrible. I tried taking a picture of seattle at night and in automode the grain is terrible. There is a setting to turn off the light but it keeps turning on in both auto and manual modes. This flash light is not in sync with the camera button, more exactly, you press the button, the light turns on for a fraction of a second, it turns off then the camera takes the picture. So the flashlight is useless in this case, even if it starts after it was turned off completely. I know this is a video cam but if you include still pictures capabilities i will review them.Also, try to check the price regularly. It fluctuates a lot, even with $100 up or down.
