I upgraded to this camera from the GH4 and it is amazing! I know I'm a little behind on camera models, but I purchased the GH4 in 2017 and it has been my workhorse for video ever since. I decided to go with this camera because of it's features and price. The video quality and features surpass most other cameras in this price range.

I bought the 881 for a research trip to New Zealand. After 5 weeks of using it I had tried most of it's features and found the camera to be amazing. For my run-and-gun style it was light weight and versatile, though I found the night time imagery very grainy and generally unusable without adequate lighting. It did, however, catch the images in almost total darkness outdoors - good for documentation but not so good for final video shows. The camera is difficult to hold still, compared to my Panasonic HVX 200, that weighed in at around 7 lbs with lens extension, because it is so light. It requires good technique and/or a tripod to get professional video out of it. I find I use my post-shoot stabilization filter in FCP7 a lot. The biggest issue was with my previous camera was the lack of an eye-piece for capturing fast moving subjects. I just couldn't see enough with just the screen, especially in strong daylight. My new camera, the HC-WXF991 has the essential view finder and I have had much less of a problem following and framing my subjects now. I also have an issue with the manual zoom location - can't reach it with my big hands, but the on-screen zoom is awesome. On all other scores, it is a remarkable camera. The video is beautifully sharp and the response to various lighting and atmospheric conditions is very good - capturing good color and exposure in most instances. I got my 35 hours of research video in New Zealand and am looking forward to using my new 991 in the near future for more of the same.

Professional video files

Great audio and clarity. Easy to mount to any professional video camera, very pleased!

This camera while not breaking the bank, yields professional video quality with clean HDMI and unlimited recording capability. The kit lens gives me enough depth of field to make the desired depth of field that distinguishes the amateur from the aspiring filmmaker. Will buy a couple more for my podcast studio. I wish, however, that I had known the price had jumped by $300.00 for the basic kit. Hope it comes back down to the 697.00 that I paid for the first two units.. Highly recommend it if you are on a budget..
