Opinions from the Panasonic HC-VX1

Advantages:
Nice design, it fits well in the hand, a good stabilizer, good optical zoom (I have enough of it), there are both automatic and manual shooting modes, there are also additional features: slow motion, slow zoom, and so on. The main advantage is the charge from the power bank and there is WiFi for transferring data to the smartphone (very convenient especially when traveling for further publication on the social network). Pleasant enough touchscreen display, the set comes with blezma. Shooting in 4K, there is a night shooting mode, a good aperture. The camera survived being fired (the kids took off the tripod), but it's best not to experiment (this isn't a GoPro). There is hdr, good stereo sound, it is possible to connect an external microphone (3.5mm jack) You can shoot commercial projects or take with you on a trip.
Disadvantages:
There is no manual iso setting, inconvenient scrolling of footage in the camera (especially if you need to get ready to puff in the middle of a shot, it's easier to connect via a smartphone). The application sometimes hangs, you have to reboot, the same problem with the remote control via a smartphone, the manual is not entirely clear and it has a small print, I had to figure it out myself at random and YouTube to help. Slow motion is incomprehensible, you must hold the icon on the screen with your finger, otherwise you will not get this effect, as soon as you release it, the camera writes in normal mode (I would like to press and write, but this is not provided). The picture is noisy in the dark, but 4k partially corrects this. There is no wheel for adjusting the brightness of the manual mode, I will do everything on the screen, if you want to increase or decrease the shutter speed, then the aperture is reset to medium values, the white balance is not clear (setting, there are only presets and autotune), shutter speed only up to 1/50 (I wanted more, although 1/25 is already starting to slow down, I do not recommend it for dynamic scenes)
Comment:
I was pleased with the purchase, it will do for the first time. I use it for travel, commercial projects and personal photography. The price is true. The matrix is small, but large and cost a lot.
