Video Camera 2017

What is the best camera for video recording in 2017?

2 new cameras were introduced at the start of the year.

I highly recommend them, based on specifications, for now.

The Announcement

Panasonic introduced the release of several digital cameras.

Out of these many new gadgets, are two that suits our needs.

Videographers will love the Panasonic GH5 and the FZ2500.

The #1 Feature: No 30-minute limit

They can record video continuously beyond the 30-minute limit.

Yes, that limit that is built into all mirrorless and DSLR cameras.

And yes, the 2 new Panasonics are mirrorless “Photography” cameras.

That means we can now shoot great videos and photos in one device.

The Panasonic LUMIX GH5

Here are the top 3 features that I like about the GH5.

  1. 4K video recording uncropped
  2. Large sensor: Micro four thirds
  3. Interchangeable lens

Here are the top 3 features that I like about the FZ2500.

  1. 4K video recording (though cropped)
  2. Large sensor: 1 inch
  3. 20x zoom lens

Which one would you choose?

Reply to this post with your choice and your reasons.

It all depends on your needs: What are you shooting? Who will be watching?

For me, I shoot mostly events and seminars, that will be played over the internet.

  • I need to react fast to live situations so I have little time to change lens.
  • I need to zoom into the stage while standing behind a seminar hall.

So for me, it’s the Panasonic FZ2500 with the fixed 20x zoom lens.

Look out for my upcoming video camera and video editing course… http://www.videolane.com/courses/basic-videography/
