Panasonic HC-X2000 - CineD color grading test - XRite Color Checker, Davinci Resolve
Video clips I recorded with the Panasonic HC-X2000 camcorder in 4K60 10-bit 4:2:0 at 200mbps in HEVC LongGOP format, CineD profile, DRS off, no in-camera sharpening nor noise reduction (NR Control set to -7). All shots taken handheld with Hybrid O.I.S. enabled and most shots using "stable" mode and some using "normal" mode. A few clips like the shot of the bee, I used additional stabilization in post. Edited the clips on a 2.7K timeline in Davinci Resolve Studio 16 at a 2.35 aspect ratio. Manually exposed all shots using waveform monitor for assistance, prioritizing the gain as low as possible and manually using the ND filters for the most open aperture (iris) as possible; used the back adjustment ring for iris and the tiny knob ring for gain. Most clips were taken using autofocus, although on some I used manual focus. Minimum focusing distance at 600mm is around 4 feet or so which is very good, and from 25mm to 200mm it is about 3 or 4 inches which is great. White balance set to 5600K and not changed during the entire shooting session despite clouds and sunny weather, 10-bit video allows for more adjustment in post if needed with less potential for banding and colors falling apart, but your white balance should always be as close as possible to correct in camera of course. The camera has an "ATW" lock which is essentially locking your auto white balance which is interesting. Shot the X-Rite Color Checker Passport Video in the end at 5600K as well, and did a minor white balance temperature and tint adjust using the vectorscope, and used Hue vs Hue to get the colors looking a bit more neutral. Reduced highlights, added some sharpening, highlight bloom, vignette, and that's about it! Nothing too crazy here. Built in microphone used on the camera set to auto (I didn't take the handle out with me on this session). Overall, very impressed with how good this camcorder is, it gives the best quality I've seen out of such a small sensor :) Once the project is mostly done, I begin the "Color Output" Fusion "user mode" caching in Resolve. Resolve pre-renders the clips to the cache stored on my NVME drive in an HDR 4:4:4 format (pretty much lossless quality to be safe), then I use the option "Use render cached images" when rendering to HEVC / H.265 on the Deliver page using NVIDIA encoder. The final render goes by much faster because of this. But even if you don't use a render cache, Resolve is still very fast. GPU I use on the computer I built for video editing is: MSI RTX 3070, CPU is AMD 5950X. Similar Panasonic camcorders: HC-X1500, AG-CX10
