Here’s Your First Look at the Large-Sensor Panasonic DVX200 Camera1 min read

For many of us 20 and 30-something filmmakers, Panasonic’s DVX and HVX camcorders were our first foray into digital filmmaking. Those cameras were some of the first to enable filmmakers to achieve somewhat cinematic images with a digital camera, and for that reason, there’s a nostalgia that goes along with them. Panasonic is perhaps trying to capitalize on the nostalgia with their latest camera, the DVX200, a completely refreshed version of the original, complete with modern features like a large sensor and internal 4K recording.

Richard Payne of Holdan Limited (the UK distributer of this camera) recently shared a fairly in-depth video featuring a first look at the DVX200, and it gives plenty of reasons to be excited.

Just in case you need a refresher, here are the basic specs of this camera:

Panasonic DVX200
Single 4/3 MOS Sensor with 12 Stops DR
DCI 4K 24P, UHD 4K Up to 60p
Variable Frame Rate Up to 120 FPS in FHD

Integrated Leica 13x f/2.8 – f/4.5 Lens
3 x Individual Lens Control Rings
2 x SD Cards Slots (U3 Compatible)
HDMI 2.0, 3G-SDI Output

I have a passion for motion picture; which in that is the magic of make believe. New technologies that change the way we acquire content is what excites me. I enjoy cooking and cycling outside of work =)
