Great overall, love the ease of recording sound, built-in ND filters, excellent 4K images. Only downside is a relative poor performance in lower light situations.

This seems to be a great entry level camera for my video production classes. We have not used it much so I cannot attest to its durability, but Panasonic cameras usually outlast some of the others I've used. Beautiful quality picture for the price.

I purchased this camera in May of 2017 and have spent that time primarily shooting aviation subjects of all varieties, from hanging out of a helicopter shooting air-to-air videos, being underneath helicopters enduring a barrage of rotor-wash, and shooting vintage WWII fighters, and also a little bit of landscape/scenery work and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this camera! I spent several months doing my research before pulling the trigger on this, and it was everything I had hoped it would be and better. There has definitely been a bit of a learning curve when it comes to finding perfect settings for each subject, but it has been well worth it. I especially love the time-lapse feature. I actually use that frequently and it's been great saving the shutter on my DSLR. I love the steadiness of the image stabilization, as that was a huge issue I had with my previous camera. My only concern has been the autofocus hunting while shooting aircraft. Whether it's an empty blue sky or trees and mountains in the background, it seems to have a tough time tracking moving objects right away. BUT, I figured out how to work around that early on, and is no longer an issue. Just be aware that it's there.

Perfect for the run and gun camcorder guy. Easy to use and features a great deal of perks including auto focus assist. Shoots to SD cards and shoots 4K...All in one choice.

The Panasonic HC-X1000 Surprised me at how crisp and clean the images are and how easy it is to set up and use. It is lightweight and compact. I recommend this camera to any level of user.

Good: Great during day light. Slightly weaker for indoor low light recording. Bad: No Remote. Product came with 3 Year Extended Warranty. Applied for it will all documentation but I have not received any confirmation even after 5+ months. Some part of Panasonic does not care. Summary: Overall, good value for money.

The camera is very easy to use and shoots great 4K video. I find the built in neutral density filter is very handy and easy to use. The audio section is very configurable when using external microphones. I like shooting video with this camera better than any of my DSLR's. Great camera.

I'm a TV news videographer and this is a perfect second camera to supplement my main camera, AG?HPX370. It's incredibly portable yet I get very high quality imaging - not only high resolution but great color handling. A must have in my video arsenal.

This is the 4th 4k cam i have purchased and I am insanely happy with this one; going to give two of the others to friends. The only thing that i have not been able to do is find the remote control start/stop/zoom switch for this, not a wireless one, and as i am disabled, this is the only drawback to this. Compatible with macbook for video editing and downloading, easy to handle, simple to use both in intelligent auto and manual. If you are a point and shoot person, this one might be a bit more complicated to use, but after practice you can achieve the look you want. Great low light shots possible. Where is that remote? thanks

I don't normally write reviews, but when you buy a product this outstanding it would be a sin not to. I've had this camera for around 6 months now and it is simply marvelous. The picture quality is amazing, it shoots beautifully in 24, 30, and 60 fps and even has great shots in pitch black darkness. I highly recommend this camera for anyone who wants to shoot 4K at 60 frames - what a bargain. I hope the creators of this camera get extra bonuses for creating such a spectacular device. 2 64 GB sticks last almost 2 hours at 60fps/150 Mbps. In addition, the manual controls on this camera allow you to capture the best picture possible given the available lighting conditions (auto settings work great as well). Shooting in daylight will bring tears to your eyes as the picture quality comes out so clear. I took this camera on multiple trips overseas and the shots it captured were stunning. It's easy to carry around as well and isn't too bulky given its size. I also shoot around 2 hours of video per day with it and have never run into any problems. It additionally supports some fancy features like remote shooting using a smartphone. Read the documentation available online - the list of features will have you pretty excited for the price. Very happy I bought this camera.

I love this camera. Takes 4k video beautifully.

The quality is outstanding, the captures are beautiful, and it's a dream to record with. 2 64 GB sticks get you around 2 hours of 60fps 4K capture at 150 Mbps and it's breathtaking. The manual options are similarly outstanding allowing you to get the best shot possible. The documentation is great and you can download as a PDF from the site. I highly recommend reading it for a full list of functionality to expect. It records 1080 beautifully as well since it captures in 4k and downsamples so the 1080 captures look much more detailed than standard 1080 camcorders I've used in the past. It's ultra silent as well and is fairly lightweight. Can shoot with one hand no problem. About the only complaint I would have is that it doesn't capture raw 4k and instead records directly to mp4. This, however, can be seen as a plus because you don't have to re-encode after, and the files are much smaller than raw would be. For the price, it's no problem.
