At the Bench with the Panasonic HPX370

Today Panasonic has announced their latest camera, the HPX370. This is an updated version of the HPX300 with some major improvements to the sensor block. The body and functionality of the HPX370 builds on that of the HPX300 (view my video here), with a new 3MOS U.L.T. imager that has reduced noise, higher sensitivity, and reduced skew. With these improvements and AVC-Intra 100 recording on board, this camera will prove to be a real winner. I had a chance to play with the camera and shoot some tests, see my video above, and was very impressed with the image quality and low noise. The HPX370 will be available this month at a list price of $11,700.

@videogamer24385 for sports 50/50, not good, not bad, i will buy Red scarlet and will have 120 fps 720p with 14000$ with EF mount adapter+64-128GB SSD cards(i have many Canon L lenses), HPX370 body is 9000$, P2 64GB is 1000$, you need minimum 4 cards, and with shot gun micr-1000$, HPX370/374 is 13000-14000$ , same price you will get 2-3,4 time more quality if buy Red scarlet, 16bit video, audio 24 bit, 120fps720p.... Panasonic sells the stupid name, Red sells the quality...

Thank you for this review. I just got this cam and I love it. It's definitely a whole lot of cam and others considering it should really learn to use a prosumer cam well first. There is a big learning curve. This NOT your basic point and shoot cam. It can deliver very high quality images or it can give you the creative ability to completely make your shots look like crap! Another point this is an all manual cam. Nothing is automatic. Nothing. I prefer that. Others may not. It depends on what yo

This is camera for broadcasting, for TV programs, for NEWS, not for CINEMA or film making.... you can shoot concert, video clip(sometime), advertising, weddings, conferense, reportage, but not film...for film u can use Canon 7D, 5D mark 2, RED one MX, EPIC, scarlet, and may be AF101

@appleu32i its probably the white balance.

@imperatorMher it does not record to sd cards ,only p2

[JacanaProductions]

Noise shoot needs to be reversed? HPX300 looks cleaner. You can use youtube's annotations to fix it!

[imperatorMher]

can this camera record on SDHC card, like AF101?
