Panasonic HC-X1500E 4K Camcorder – Ultra-Compact Professional Video Camera

Description

The Panasonic HC-X1500E is the smallest and lightest professional 4K 60p camcorder in its class—perfect for on-the-go videographers, journalists, content creators, and live event shooters. Despite its compact size, the HC-X1500E packs a punch with UHD 4K 60p recording, 10-bit 4:2:2 internal recording (up to 30p), and powerful 24x optical zoom.

Equipped with a 1/2.5-inch MOS sensor and Leica Dicomar lens, it delivers sharp, vibrant footage with excellent low-light performance. The 5-Axis Hybrid O.I.S.+ ensures stable handheld shots, and its dual SD card slots, ND filter wheel, and Wi-Fi streaming support make it ideal for field work and fast-paced productions.

Unlike the HC-X2000 or X1600, the HC-X1500E omits the XLR handle unit, but retains all other professional functionality—making it a lightweight yet powerful tool for solo shooters and travel creators.
