I just received mine this weekend and I’m going to shoot some footage because when I did my research your video was the only one I found that showed me amazing graded video. Shout out to you for selling me on this camera
Thanks for the beautiful footage on a very nice camcorder, i think. Finaly just pictures and no endless technical blabla makes it so much worth for me to make a decision. Keep on the good work. 💯👍
Great film! How much gain did you use? How is the Vlog footage when using it in lower light condition and extra gain added? Isn't it too noisy? I have a CX350 and it gets very noisy in Vlog mode. Thanks!
❤ Martin great video, I just got my XF605 and this is my first fall with it. Your video gave me some great ideas. As they say it’s not the wand its the wizard well done. Mike
Some people can be given a freaking potato camera and they will still manage to make gold out of it! these shots were insane for the amount of features and price point of this camera :)
That's also because camera itself performs *well above* its price point. It's just a shame that the few other examples currently online are shot by people who seem to be particularly hopeless at using a camera of any kind. Makes me wonder if the rival brands have been giving this camera as a free gift to anyone who can submit the worst possible footage using it. 😂
The colors look great! Which of the "scene files" have you used? And can you please detail what other settings were used to get such a great dynamic range and beautiful colors? Thanks!
I recently bought this camera and noticed the banding that happens when shooting in v-log. Was wondering if this happens to you also. Thought my camera was broken but checked out another one at store and it was doing the same thing.
Have you upgraded the firmware? Version 1.1 is the latest I think. I have no banding problems on mine. Martin's video here was also shot with VLOG and no obvious sign of banding, although UA-cam processing could be making it difficult to see. Could be a QC issue perhaps. Just ideas. Good luck getting it sorted.
dreamy...poetic...all it could need is Morgan Freeman's voice...so this camera or the Canon XF605? how do they compare? I wish I could see a side by side comparison...but this video looks great!
I returned to your video after hours of extensive checking the footage of many different camcorders and brands here on YT. And I am somewhat puzzled: My first impression of your video (3 month ago) was great because of the colors and the cinematic approach you took. Now, I am quite disapointed by the lack of the details that I would expect from a true 4K camcorder. Am I wrong, or did you blurr the footage a bit to create amore creamy look for cinematic reasons?
Hi, now in 2023... so many cameras are coming out... I see you got the one I been looking at... And I see your work is really outstanding" wow! I like to ask you that been working with both mirrorless and now this one... How shall one best compare for example a bit cheaper camera from the same company, the Panasonic AG-CX10 to the newer HC-X2, like what can one do that the other cannot? Please advice me what the main things to consider would be as you see it.. is a huge price difference but many things happens in 2023... I want to live-send from protest and make small documentaries as well as short films... I am not good at all the tech stuff but I am good at directing, creating ideas and working with people... I want a camera that I can go out with and that is professional so that I can make money by it as well as do vlogs at home or make short films with actors as well... Most people tell me to stay away from camcorders.. and instead get a Black Magic 4k or the newer Sigma FP... The Sigma FP looks really cool, and they seem to listen to their users which I totally like! I love the cinema look but I also love to catch things quickly that happens around town when I am out n' about.... I of course understand setting up light and mics at home or on a rented location with actors and follow a scene schedule is a totally different work day than following a protest on the street or making a vlog to UA-cam when out with my bike in the country side... But, I cannot afford right now to buy all kinds of different cameras and a studio, but I still want to make actors look great in short films as well as have a fairly easy access to a camera when interesting events happens around town.. so, what do you that worked with both mirrorless and camcorders think about all this? and Panasonic AG-CX10 vs HC-x2, what are the pros and cons except for the big price difference between them? do I need HC-x2 in 2023 and forward on, and if so why? do all of the CX and HC cameras live broadcast the same way? thanks for a great channel and hope to here your thoughts on the topic° Kind regards from Sweden :)
Aweseome! Why do I carry around my bulky S1H any longer? alone an external Zacuto EVF is close to the price of this camcorder - need to completely rethink my whole equipment strategy -:) BTW, was the footage shot handeld or on trypod?
@@sardanapalos Sorry, overlooked it. Aweseome stabilization. Which dou YOU like more: the V-Log or HLG? I am wondering what to prefer on my S1H (V-Log over HLG).
Hey quick question for you! Does the autofocus work well? And does it work while shooting in UHD V-Log? The Canon XF605 apparently doesn't support autofocus when using CLOG3.
The HC-X2 allows vlog and autofocus at the same time. The AF can be configured for responsiveness (10 settings) and speed (10 settings) including when using vlog. It is seriously under valued. camera. Panasonic's best kept secret for some reason that only their marketing department knows :)
how's she hold up in low lighting situations...I have the ux180 im looking to sell to update to something else. It just works but not blown away with it..especially when lighting is challenging. Plus the image quality on UX is alright for what it is but I'm needing a little more ooomph.
Not one shot of zooming in onto a subject or even zooming out, whoever shot this video needs to learn where the zoom lever? I will give you a clue! try looking on the top, there are two of them. A nice close up of the Moon would have been nice?
yeah...I'm looking for a new camera to for the music videos I work on, lots of movement from multiple sources in the same scene, whipping the camera around quickly, etc., haven't found a single video yet that shows autofocus, movement, anything dynamic with this camera.
I think, and I say this as a professionell cameraman, you are the one, who is wrong. Only amateurs zoom in and zoom out. professionals rather seldom do. this is a wonderful filmed video. Zooms would have disturbed the silence of the pictures and the landscape.
You have a great eye. The shot of the clouds reflected in the water is lovely.
Wow very beautiful footage 🎉❤
Amazing images, super quality and of course the human eyes behind this technology. BRAVO !
Thank you Martin! I have been waiting to see some footage examples from the HC-X2. Beautifully shot.
Matthew
Superb! Finally someone who knows how to showcase the camera´s potential with LOG and tasteful grading.
This looks so good. The shot of the clouds reflection in the water is amazing
Estos, son los videos por los que sigue valiendo la pena entrar a UA-cam, muchas gracias
I just received mine this weekend and I’m going to shoot some footage because when I did my research your video was the only one I found that showed me amazing graded video. Shout out to you for selling me on this camera
Best images I've seen out of this camera from UA-cam. Thanks for this
Thanks for the beautiful footage on a very nice camcorder, i think. Finaly just pictures and no endless technical blabla makes it so much worth for me to make a decision.
Keep on the good work. 💯👍
Such well composed shots! Beautiful
Необыкновенно красивое видео и невероятно красивые пейзажи 😍.
Very nice footage. The grade is gorgeous also, love that Portra 400 look. It seems to work pretty well with the V-Log.
Beautiful shots. That grade is fantastic.
More footage with this camera please! Amazing quality!
Stunning
HC-X2remely nice shots. Beautiful!
very well shot footage and IQ from this camera
Beautiful!
Very nice footage! X2 seems like a good choice
Great film! How much gain did you use? How is the Vlog footage when using it in lower light condition and extra gain added? Isn't it too noisy? I have a CX350 and it gets very noisy in Vlog mode.

Nice work!

Thank you for sharing.
What inspires you to use a camcorder instead of your GH5? Is it the usefulness of the built in super zoom and ND filters?
The colors look great! Which of the "scene files" have you used? And can you please detail what other settings were used to get such a great dynamic range and beautiful colors? Thanks!
how's the rolling shutter?
In Filmconvert pro, which Panasonic camera profile did you use?
amazing ❤

Very nice 👍🏼
If you can please teach me how to record on Vlog with the HC -X2
I am thinking to pick one of these camcorders up. Could I download a couple of ungraded vlog video files from you just for testing purposes?
Thanks for the video. Is it possible to film in complete automatic modus?
I'm curious how skintones look on this camera with similar camera settings. How Cinematic can it look?
dreamy...poetic...all it could need is Morgan Freeman's voice...so this camera or the Canon XF605? how do they compare? I wish I could see a side by side comparison...but this video looks great!
Awesome footage Martin, thanks for sharing. Any chance to share a single raw vlog footage file? (please?)
Beautiful video. What sort of editing equipment did you use?
I returned to your video after hours of extensive checking the footage of many different camcorders and brands here on YT.

Please advice me what the main things to consider would be as you see it..
is a huge price difference but many things happens in 2023...
I want to live-send from protest and make small documentaries as well as short films...
I am not good at all the tech stuff but I am good at directing, creating ideas and working

I of course understand setting up light and mics at home or on a rented location
with actors and follow a scene schedule is a totally different work day than
following a protest on the street or making a vlog to UA-cam when out with my bike in the country side...
But, I cannot afford right now to buy all kinds of different cameras and a studio,
but I still want to make actors look great in short films as well as have a fairly easy access
to a camera when interesting events happens around town..
so, what do you that worked with both mirrorless and camcorders think about all this?
and Panasonic AG-CX10 vs HC-x2, what are the pros and cons except for the big price difference between them?
do I need HC-x2 in 2023 and forward on, and if so why?
do all of the CX and HC cameras live broadcast the same way?
thanks for a great channel and hope to here your thoughts on the topic°
Kind regards from Sweden :)
Aweseome! Why do I carry around my bulky S1H any longer? alone an external Zacuto EVF is close to the price of this camcorder - need to completely rethink my whole equipment strategy -:)
BTW, was the footage shot handeld or on trypod?
read description
@@sardanapalos Sorry, overlooked it. Aweseome stabilization.
Which dou YOU like more: the V-Log or HLG? I am wondering what to prefer on my S1H (V-Log over HLG).
Can I do this sort of grading with the XC-X20 or does it require the extra log? Your footage is stunning!
Nice. I am thinking about getting this camera.
Nice. Thank you. Do you "White balance" every shots?
Hey quick question for you! Does the autofocus work well? And does it work while shooting in UHD V-Log? The Canon XF605 apparently doesn't support autofocus when using CLOG3.

Wow I thought those all shot with tripod.
wow, this was great. Trying to figure what camera to get for filming and this is by far number 1 for me right now. Awesome footage!
how many fps?
is this in ukraine? where is this sir?
I thought the HC-X2 had not V-LOG?? Only the more expensive HC-X20 has it...
found it. It's the opposite.
Not one shot of zooming in onto a subject or even zooming out, whoever
shot this video needs to learn where the zoom lever?
I will give you a clue! try looking on the top, there are two of them.
A nice close up of the Moon would have been nice?

loool zoom is subjective? stop being rude for nothing and enjoy the imagery :)
I think, and I say this as a professionell cameraman, you are the one, who is wrong. Only amateurs zoom in and zoom out. professionals rather seldom do. this is a wonderful filmed video. Zooms would have disturbed the silence of the pictures and the landscape.
Why Panasonic lenses instead of Leica? The very strong colors and contrast I don't like, but this is great footage.
