  • Key Specs
    • Effective Pixels: 8.29 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
    • Standardized Video Resolution: 4K (2160p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)
  • General
    • Brand: Panasonic
    • Model Number: HC-X1500
    • Product Name: HC-X1500 4k60p Premium Camcorder
    • Color: Black
  • Imaging
    • Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
    • Digital Zoom: 10x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
    • Optical Zoom: 24x (The optical zoom uses a combination of lenses that magnify the image prior to it being registered at high resolution by the imaging sensor.)
    • Image Stabilization: Hybrid (This feature helps reduce image/video blur or distortion that may occur from unsteady motion.)
    • Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
    • Image File Format(s): JPEG (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
  • Focus
    • Auto/Manual Focus: Automatic, Manual
    • Focus Modes: Automatic/manual
  • Exposure Control
    • Minimum Aperture: f/1.8 (The smallest opening of a lens, typically expressed in f-numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture and the less light that can enter the lens. A smaller aperture creates a larger depth of field, which keeps both foreground and background in focus.)
    • Maximum Aperture: f/4 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
    • Maximum Focal Length: 98.9 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
    • White Balance Modes: 3200K, 5600K, 2000K - 15000K (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
    • Effective Pixels: 8.29 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
  • Lens
    • Minimum Focal Length: 4.12 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
  • Display
    • Display Type: LCD
    • Screen Size: 3.5 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
    • Aspect Ratio: 16:9 (The measurement of the width of a screen compared to the height of a screen, expressed as a ratio.)
    • Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
  • Video
    • Standardized Video Resolution: 4K (2160p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)
    • Maximum Video Frame Rate: Up to 60 fps (The maximum frequency at which consecutive images can be captured by a video recording device.)
    • Slow Motion Recording: true
    • Video Encoding Formats: AVCHD, MOV (The process of preparing the video for output, where the digital video is encoded to meet proper formats and specifications for recording and playback with the use of a compatible device.)
  • Storage
    • Number of Memory Card Slots: 2
  • Compatibility
    • Memory Card Compatibility: Secure Digital Extended Capacity (SDXC), Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC) (The type of memory card(s) recommended for use with the product.)
  • Features
    • Face Detection: true (A function that automatically detects human faces and then sets focus and appropriate exposure to capture them.)
    • Integrated Speaker(s): true
    • Night Recording: true (The ability to capture and record video in low-light conditions, typically via infrared light or intensifier tubes that amplify existing light to illuminate the scene.)
  • Connectivity
    • Wireless Connectivity: WiFi (The manner in which a device sends data to another device over a short distance without the use of wires or cables.)

Q: My understanding is that during playback of a recorded video you can tap the little camera icon on the lcd screen and it will make a duplicate of that one frame so that you can have your still shot, and it can be done more than once?

A: Hi, Alan! One frame of the recorded video can be recorded as a still image. If you touch the camera icon or press the multi-dial, the scene will be recorded as a still image when played back. Also, the number of pixels of the still image to be recorded is the same as the number of pixels of the recorded video. This can be done more than once. [INVALID] will be displayed when the still image cannot be recorded in cases such as there is not enough remaining recording capacity in the memory card. Hope this helps! -C
