The HC-X2 and the HC-X20 offer greater resolution than earlier Panasonic AG and HC models beacuse of the inclusion of a 1.0″-type, 15MP sensor. They also feature the ability to record in V-Log and they have professional interfaces such as interfaces like SDI and LAN. This allows them to be integrated into live productions along with other cameras. The RJ45 GbE (Gigabit Ethernet) port can provide a network connection using a router and the USB port can be linked to your smartphone or tablet for tethering.
An integrated Wi-Fi module on the X2 and the X20 offers both camera control and livestreaming at resolutions up to 1080p60 using a separately available mobile router. Use your tablet with the downloadable HC ROP app for wireless control of up to eight cameras.
The HC-X2 also features a BNC timecode in/out and it can output SDI and HDMI simultaneously. It is important to note that only the EVF or the LCD screen will work when outputting SDI and HDMI simultaneously. They both can’t be used.
Both cameras feature dual card slots and the option to relay, or simultaneous record to two cards at once. With the X2 you can do dual codec recording where footage can be recorded simultaneously in UHD 4K and full HD (50 Mb/s) or full HD (100 Mb/s or higher).
The HC-X2 and HC-X20 can both record in HDR and HLG and Panasonic claims they have a dynamic range of 13 stops when using V-log.
Autofocus (AF) is available in all resolutions and frame rates and there is improved Face Detection AF and tracking. The in-built lens on both models features individual focus, iris, and zoom rings. The focus can also be set to Nonlinear, Linear, and Set modes. Nonlinear matches the focus movement to the speed with which you rotate the focus ring. Linear adjusts the focus at a constant speed and you can use Set for selecting a focus when in Linear mode. There is also face detection AF, color peaking, and 1-touch AF when using manual mode.
5-axis Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) and Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) are also available. The three available modes available: Normal (standard), Stable (for fixed frame shots), and Pan/Tilt.
As you would expect, both cameras feature built-in clear and three ND filters (1/4, 1/16, 1/64).
Both cameras feature a 3. 5″ touchscreen LCD monitor and a color OLED viewfinder.
Built-in video assist tools include a waveform, vectorscope, zebra, a horizon level, adjustable luminance levels, and flash-band correction.
As far as audio is concerned, there are dual XLR audio inputs with selectable 48v phantom power/mic/line options, 24-bit linear PCM recording, and independent level control for each channel, onscreen display levels, and a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack
There is also an IR mode you can use that can be assigned to a user button. This allows you to shoot in very dark conditions where there is almost no light.
According to Panasonic, you can get around 7.5 hours of recording time with the X2 and 9 hours for the X20 when using the 86Wh AG-VBR118 battery.
The HC-X2 retails for $3,199.99 and it is now available to pre-order. The HC-X20 retails for $2,599.99 USD.

It supports HLG/V-log (13 stops) and HDR shooting and provides images without cropping in all modes. , the X2 features an Ethernet and a Wi-Fi connection for LAN streaming and wireless camera control. It supports RTMP (Real Time Messaging Protocol), the protocol used when streaming with Adobe Flash, and it is RTSP/RTP/RTMP/RTMPS compatible using H.264/MPEG-4 AVC/AAC-LC compression. It supports streaming distribution of RTMP-compatible content, such as live video distribution services, and it records (with modes below FHD) onto SD cards in the camera is also possible while streaming. HDR is an image display technology that provides a wider brightness range (dynamic range) than conventional SDR. The X2 supports V-Log/V-Gamut, which is also equipped in Panasonic cinema cameras VARICAM and LUMIX. It can work in USB or wired/wireless LAN tethering mode to use a computer for live streaming to applications such as YouTube or Facebook for live streaming. A 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi module is built-in, so there is no need to purchase a separate wireless LAN module. Wi-Fi connection is possible using only the main unit. The 4-Drive Lens System simultaneously and independently drives 4 lens groups (group 2, iris, group 3, group 4). The lens size and drive range for each of the 4 groups can be efficiently suppressed to optimize image quality and zoom power, maintaining a compact body. In addition to Optical Image Stabilization (O.I.S.), Electronic Image Stabilization operates to detect and correct handshake in the 5-axis direction, including rotational blurring. This provides powerful correction in unstable situations, such as low-angle and high-angle shooting.
There are three modes to choose from: NORMAL (standard), STABLE (effective for fixed-frame shooting) and PAN/TILT (effective in panning and tilting). HDMI outputs up to 3840 x 2160 UHD 4K 4:2:2 10-bit and 3G-SDI outputs 1920 x 1080 FHD 4:2:2 10-bit, high image quality output, compatible with various applications and recorders.
The X2 supports timecode in/out so it can easily fit into multi-camera productions. Provided with Face Detection to precisely capture subjects onsite free from out of focus problems and insufficient exposure. Auto Focus is easily possible with just a touch on the LCD panel. You can also change this to Auto Iris and Brightness Display on the screen. Measures brightness at the center and displays numerical data. The contours of subjects in focus are colored for display emphasis. By One Press AF, This function temporarily activates Auto Focus when shooting in Manual mode. ND filters are built into the lens to suppress the amount of incident light and filters can be selected (1/4, 1/16, 1/64, or Clear) to match the shooting environment.
The optical 20x zoom lens features an optical zoom of 20x, a 24x maximum digital i.Zoom range in UHD 4K, and a maximum 32x digital i.Zoom in 1080p. HD mode achieves a super-slow-motion effect with a maximum 120 fps or 100 fps. It supports high-quality 10-bit recording in FHD mode. Two XLR inputs with switchable 48V phantom power supply/MIC/LINE. In MOV mode, 24-bit linear PCM recording delivers high resolution sound quality. When the filter is turned OFF, commercially available IR lights can be used for shooting in dark places The 3.5mm LCD touchscreen monitor can be constantly displayed even when viewing the tiltable EVF.
The camera features multiple professional assist functions such as Waveform monitor, Vector scope, Zebra, Flash Band detection and correction, Luminance level adjustment, Level gauge and many more other functions.
