I take a look at the 4k Panasonic vx-870 camcorder and shoot some test footage to see how well this camcorder will do for youtube. Ultimate vlog setup? Instagram: buck_creek
My only problem with this cam is it keeps shutting down when recording. It blames it on the SD card. I have purchased different high-end SD cards and it still shuts down. Any solutions?
I’m not certain what would cause that. If you have used multiple high quality and cards and it continues to do this it may be that the card reader is faulty. If it were me I would try a factory reset if that doesn’t work call whomever you purchased it from.
the two products i was looking at the Pelican catch 100 and this camera you did reviews on ... great reviews by the way...so i need to watch going forward... thanks again!!
What is the record length on them before it splits the recording into two? It feels like it always stops when the one part is about4.7 GBs and I want to be able to override that since I record really long takes for a convention
I have this camera, Shure when it splits the video you loose a little moment of your audio. that is sad. Anyways i use external recorder to add to the video later in edition to avoid that lapse.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! That is definitely a helpful feature I've gotten to the point where I use an external mic on another camera and upload the voice track from it.
Does the light automatically come on when it gets dark? Can you turn the light off in auto mode? Thinking about hunting low light and I don’t want a light to come on and scare a deer.
@@BuckcreekTV awesome to hear! Do you still have this camera ? Any chance you can post new footage ? I’m thinking about buying one but I already own the Panasonic 785k which is only 1080p. Thank you
I won't be posting another video specifically on this camera with 4k footage. That being said, all of my hunting videos over the past 2-3 years do contain 4k footage from this camera if you would like to see that.
@@I_like_science I still have the camera and love it although I do wish the color profile was a bit more rich for me specific taste. I should clarify that I was able to start posting in 4k 2-3 years ago is the reason I suggested that time frame.
Awesome review with video samples.
You can set the volume in the menu setting. Three settings, AGC, Level + AGC or Level - AGC.

I'm happy I could help my friend. If you have any question on anything don't hesitate to leave a comment.

Yes it is, I was using it just this past weekend

I’m not certain off the top of my head, I usually only make clips that are a few minutes long

Hello, the rode videomic go is working fine with this camcorder? You dont have any noise problem ?
Nope, it works great
Nice video review. You can adjust the mic input on the camera when using an external mic. I had to use that feature when I recorded live music

You can turn the light on and off.
thank you ! looking at buying this camcorder used for $480 on ebay, is there wide lens you can put on it?
I can not say for certain whether there is or not. However, for 480 it is an excellent buy
review is very well done
Thanks brother and awesome bream! I hope they begin to spawn on this next full moon.
@@BuckcreekTV up north here were looking at may-june... some great fishing before that
C'est bien gentil mais votre video youtube n'est pas visible en 4K

What was the wide angle lens you bought?
I believe a Vivitar
how much do these run?
I got mine used for about $450
Brother in Christ, you own a 4k camcorder PLEASE upload in 4k.
At the time my computer could not handle editing 4k video. Fortunately, I have upgraded to a new system that allows me to do so.

@@BuckcreekTV is it because you no longer have the camera ? If so why did you decide to replace it ? I’m going to binge watch your videos.
