  • Powerful 20x optical zoom, 4K/UHD shooting, Greatquality video outdoors, Mic input/headphone output, WiFi smartphone pairing for twin camera setup
  • Only one SD card slot, Card slot on camera's underside, No wideangle, Slightly cheap plastic casing given the price
  • The VX870 is a good 4K camcorder in terms of video quality, especially outside. However, its powerful zoom is undermined by there being no wide-angle. It's a shame viewing is not more comfortable (no viewfinder and only so-so screen), and that the plastic...

  • Excellent 4K UHD video quality, Great connectivity and WiFi controls, Easy to use physical controls, twin camera function for documentary style shooting, Highly affordable, compact
  • lacks more robust lens controls, HDR mode doesn't work on 4K video, Weak battery, Chunky video transfer bitrate
  • The bottom line for the Panasonic HC-WX970 is that it is an absolutely excellent choice for consumer and some prosumer 4K video recording buffs. A mix of excellent photo and video quality combines with highly flexible usability to create on fine little 4...

  • Abstract:  The HC-WX970 sounds like just another camera, but it's not, it is the top of this line of cameras and full of features. Panasonic seems to quietly make their noise about cameras, and they have plenty of new ones during this year's CES. The features Panaso...

  • Puissant zoom optique 20x, Format 4K/UHD, Bonne qualité d'image en extérieur, Entrée micro/sortie casque, Connexion Wi-Fi à un smartphone pour double caméra
  • Un seul logement pour carte SD, Logement pour carte sous le boîtier, Pas de grand-angle, Finition plastique un peu cheap pour le prix
  • Le VX870 est un bon caméscope 4K en termes de qualité d'image, notamment en extérieur. Son zoom puissant est néanmoins sapé par l'absence de grand-angle. On regrette aussi un manque de confort de visionnage (pas de viseur et écran moyen) et une finition p...
