Panasonic HC-V785, black

Beautiful images, even in low light

Reproduce even darker scenes with the beauty of the high-sensitivity BSI sensor. This helps capture emotional, unique events.



Highly sensitive sensor

The 1/2.3-type (1/2.3 inch) back-illumination sensor has a large effective area and 34% larger pixels compared to a typical use 1/5.8-type (1/5.8 inch) sensor, suppressing noise when shooting at places with little light, such as indoors or at night. The images are astonishingly beautiful down to the smallest details.



20x optical zoom with 4-drive lens system

The lens system drives the four lens groups separately, reducing the drive distance. This ensures top quality images, motorized zooming, and a compact camera body. This keeps the housing compact, even at a 20x optical zoom.



Stable, level recordings and less distortion

The HYBRID OIS + (Optical Image Stabilizer) uses 5-axis stabilization to suppress distortion well from wide angle to beautiful zoom shots. The level recording function automatically detects and corrects the tilt of captured image.



Slow Motion Video

Smooth slow-motion video allows you to capture the emotionality of everyday scenes.



Microphone with noise reduction

Special damping material is provided in the space between the microphone and the microphone net to suppress wind noise for clear recordings at all times.



Clear images with excellent details

Enjoy clearer videos thanks to the HDR movie function. This function combines two images with different exposures to suppress overexposed areas and dense shadows. Even in difficult shooting situations such as backlight, you can easily capture natural videos with excellent gradation. A dedicated HDR button allows quick switching between modes when needed.



Use your smartphone as a second camera

By using your smartphone with Wi-Fi as a second camera, you can record from two angles at the same time. Since you're working with several cameras, you can use one from a distance, or at any angle you want. This results in several Picture in Picture recordings.
