The Best Video Camera

 

After 30 hours of research and testing, the Panasonic HC-V770K is the best video camera for those who want more than what their smartphone or DSLR has to offer.

For anyone who wants to capture better quality and more useful video of their family and friends, the way to go is the $600 Panasonic HC-V770K . Its 20x zoom, top-of-the-line stabilization, excellent sharpness, and deep, saturated colors put it not...

Panasonic HC-V770K Review

 

Although its image quality and features aren't quite up to par with our number one product, the Panasonic HC-X920, we think that the V770K is the best camera for most people. It offers great video quality, an intuitive and good-looking design and a...

The camcorder has excellent image quality.

It suffers from sluggish touchscreen performance.

The Panasonic HC-V770K is easy to use and produces clear and accurate video. At this price point, we really couldn’t ask for more out of an HD camcorder.

Panasonic HC-V770 Review

 

The HC-V770 is Panasonic's top HD-only camcorder. Its flagship models, the HC-VX870 and HC-WX970, have moved up to 4K. If you don't foresee your shooting shifting to the higher resolution anytime soon, however, the HC-V770 could be all you need. It's...

Good value Comprehensive manual settings with control dial Wi-Fi connectivity

No lens ring Small sensor compared to a DSLR No 4K shooting

If your budget doesn’t stretch to 4K, the Panasonic HC-V770 provides feature-rich and high-quality Full HD video that’s sure to impress.

I wish I would have never sold it.

 

" I purchased this camera in December of 2014. I unfortunately had to sell it in August 2015. I regret that decision. I'm a Panasonic only camera user. I own the GH3, GH4, and X920. Each has its place and purpose, and the v770 was perfect for high...

Excellent product, easy to use.

 

Microphone needs to be more sensitive and record at a greater volume. Operating it is easy and accurate. Video images are clear and detailed. Operating buttons inside of the viewer could be a little larger

HC-V770K - great intro-level videocam

 

" Mostly easy to use, nice screen features, zoom is pretty impressive. I use with a Zoom H5 audio recorder (meaning this item has added versatility) and it's great for a break-in indy news reporter, interviews, as well as wildlife recording. "

Inexpensive , Easy to use , comfortable shape , lightweight , shoe adapter (for light external audio etc.)

battery life could be a bit better (bring spare)

Very Good Camcorder !!!

 

I've had this camcorder for less than 2 weeks. I read a lot of reviews before purchasing it. I'm upgrading from my previous camcorder (Canon HG10), which I've had for many years and never failed me. However, after so many years, the zoom button blew a...
