Panasonic announces UX180 and UX90 pricing & availability

Dumb question but.... these are .mp4 files straight from the camera, right? They imported and worked fine in CS6. The specs say it also records to .mov format.
The specs on the UX180 also say .mp4 and .mov.
I'm trying to determine if I will be able to import footage straight from the UX180 or HC X1 into CS6. I'm on PC, WIN 7 64

Yes these files are directly from the memory card. All I did was renamed them.
 
The UX90 was in fully automatic mode. Basically auto white balance, auto-focusing, auto gain, etc. I'd say the cameras was probably using around 10 to 13 db of gain and the shutter stayed at 60.

Video is in 4K 30p.
 
It's ridicules the price on the HC-X1 in Australia right now.
When the HC-X1000 first came out in the US it was $3200, like the HC-X1 will be. It has gradually gone down to $2500 for the sake of the new camera.
But in Aus the X1000 has stayed at Panasonic's price of $3999, so they are asking $4999 for the X1. :Drogar-Angry(DBG):

HCX1000 doesn't appear to be available now in Canada and HCX1 is down to $4199 Canadian dollars. Still not available though !
 
Thanks for posting. Looks better than the DVX-200 imho. This is just from watching examples, not using but the UX180 is not as heavy in the shadows like so many DVX200 shots I see. Still a bit there but a step in the right direction. This footage kind of has a "video-y" feel to it in parts, but pretty nice.

The Canadian and Australian dollar are basically at parity, so that is what the camera should come out at for us.
Shop's hate taking things off the market here, so maybe the price will drop once Panasonic "cease production" of the X1000.

Yes, it is a little bit like "shut up and take my money" already :)
Seriously, if anyone has an availability date for either of these cameras, give a shout.
 
Thanks! Those promos are better than what Panasonic usually does. Looking forward to hearing more once they hit the public
 
Until I will see & study the operation manual, I will never know about the full features or the possible limitations. Quality looks good (like Sony Z150 at the first videos), but I discover that it has horrible limitations (with top of that the 4K recording, output and LCD)

Terry Nixon, can you help us on this? (to find operation manuals of UX180 & HC-X1)
 
I'm checking on pdf copies of the owners manuals.

December release dates are hard on dealers in Texas since we have property taxes that are assessed on Dec 31.
 
And so far, the only "known" difference between the X1 and the UX180 is TC and the SDI ports.

Right?

Be well.
