PANASONIC HC-VX981K

4K CAMCORDER

This is a written tutorial on how to use the Panasonic HC-VX981 4K Camcorder. If you have not

watched our video tutorial on it, this document will teach you the basics of how to use the

device. This is not a video on filming fundamentals…only how to operate the camera…as well

as a few other more advanced things you can do to help heighten your filming experience.

BASIC OPERATIONS

The Panasonic HC can be turned on by opening the flap on the side here and pressing the power

button. The camera roughly has a 2-3 hour battery life, but this can vary depending on how much

of the functions you use as well as how long it is running. It is recommended that when you are

not using the Panasonic to turn it off to conserve battery life. This can be done by closing the

flap, or pressing the power button in the same manner to turn it on.

The side panel has various buttons on it that do different things. The power button is first located

there. The Wi-Fi button will take you the Wi-Fi menu on the Panasonic. The HDR button on the

side is a function used primarily if you have the Panasonic hooked into a compatible High Depth

TV. This function is disabled in 4K mode on the Panasonic…we will be talking later on how to

turn this off and on. The top button with the camera and arrow box will take you the SD card

storage mode…where you can see all photos and videos taken on the Panasonic. The inputs at

the bottom of the Panasonic is where you will connect the various cords to connect to the devices

listed. For example, the HDMI slot is where you would hook in the cord to connect the

Panasonic to an HDMI…A/V is where you would connect in an A/V slot, etc, etc. All the cords

are available to rent.

The camera function wheel is located on the bottom left of the camera; which will allow you to

manually make adjustments to various parts of the camera…such as contrast and brightness.

However…you can also make adjustments on the touchscreen itself…which I find far easier to

do.

On the back and top of the camera, there is the Camera, Record, and zoom in functions. The

camera button at the top is where you will take pictures from, as well switches the camera from

video to photo mode. Please keep that in mind: this button is only for taking pictures. The button

directly on the 5 o clock from it is the video button. This does the opposite of what I mentioned:

it turns on the video camera, as well as switches the Panasonic from photo to video mode. Press

the button once in video mode to turn on recording…press it again to turn off the recording. The

W and T slider at the top controls zoom in, and microphone volume. Push it to the right and left

to make the adjustments.

On the other side of where the main panel is, you will find the power input for the Panasonic.

Plug the AC adapter into it to recharge the Panasonic. We ask that when you are done with your

recordings, that you plug it into the socket. On the lower right hand corner, you will see an

attachment to plug in a pair of headphones to the Panasonic…so you can better hear the volume

as you record.

The bottom area holds the area where the SD card is installed in. You can take this SD card out

by pushing up on it and then retrieving it from there. There is also the area of where you can

screw in the Pansonic into the tripod that will out and available for use.

The front part of the Panasonic features where the lens is, as well as where you install the wind

shield for outside productions. At this time, there is no plans to allow the equipment to be rented

out of the library, so you will more than likely not need this attachment. However, should this

change, this will protect the Panasonic from wind damage.

Attaching the wind shield is very simple. Simply hold the wind shield so the Unlock and Lock

parts are facing the top part of the camera. Then, push it in. You can check to be certain that the

Wind shield is facing the right direction by making sure hole where the backlight should be

shining is not obscured.

TOUCHSCREEN MENUS

Most of the functions of the Panasonic are controlled from the touchscreen. Some of the icons

shown on the Panasonic is merely relevant data you may need to refer to when conducting a

recording, such as battery, date/time codes, format you are recording in, etc. The information

displayed on screen will not be shown during a recording or photo, so don’t be concerned too

much on that. In the lower right hand of the screen, you can swap between video and photo mode

with a press on the touchscreen.

The left side of the screen is where all the video and photo functions can be found to tweak video

recordings/photo mode. Pressing the arrows on the bottom left corner will bring up the first

round of menus. The menus have different options depending on whether you are in Photo or

Video mode. There are a total of 5 different menus to go through on this tab. We’ll go through

these menus individually.

The first menu will feature screens similar to that of the top buttons on the Panasonic. These

screens adjust the Panasonic’s Zoom in fuctions on the touchscreen, as well as let you record

from there as well.

VIDEO MODE SIDE MENU OPTIONS

MENU 1

T and W: Adjusts the volume of the microphone and the zoom in options, except on the

touchscreen

This red dot on the touchscreen turns on the recording as if you pressed the

video record button.

MENU 2

Hand Waving Option: This menu turns off and on the O.I.S (Optical Image Setting)

setting for video recording. This reduces small shakes and other possible interruptions

when using the camera. There is no reason to not have this on.

Finger Point Option: This turns on and off the AF tracking on the camera. This is used

to lock the camera on a specific subject and let it try and keep its tracking on the subject

as best as possible.

Hand Option: This option allows you to touch a subject in specific in order to select

what area the camera is supposed to focus on.

MENU 3

Menu 3 is different than the other menus shown here. Menu Three can be customized with

various options that will be showcased when we talk about the Setup Menu of the Panasonic. For

the moment, these are the options that we have left on the Panasonic as default. You may when

using it customize them how you see fit.

White rectangle box with arrow on left: This option lets you turn off and on the fading

options. With this selected, the video will fade from and to black when doing recordings.

Sun Symbol: This symbol turns off and on the Backlight compensation options. It will

increase the backlight when this is selected based on needs of the area.

Line box symbol: This will turn on the gridlines so you can better analyze shots on

where to level the camera and such.

MENU 4 AND THE VIDEO MODE ICON

Before we go into the fourth menu on the option menu to the left, we need to go into the Menu 4

will vary from time to time depending on what recording setting you have the camera in. In some

cases with these video options, the fourth menu will not even appear if there is no need for it to

be there. The camera has various recording settings that can be adjusted on the touch screen

menu.

These video options are different than the menus shown earlier. To access these video settings,

press the button shown here

Once you press this button, this menu should appear. We will go into what each menu option

does
