Palmcorder Hire | Panasonic HC-W580K

Palmcorder Hire from Cam-A-Lot Rentals. If you need a small camera to do some basic filming this might be the option for you. While it is very basic, it does have some impressive features. It is important to note this is not a professional camera, it does not have professional inputs or output options. It does however have an amazing 50x zoom range and a 90x digital zoom. It is stabilised with a 5 axis hybrid optical image stabiliser which also features level shot technology. This all means your hand-held filming is surprisingly smooth and watchable. The screen is a touchscreen to navigate the controls.

Another interesting feature is the twin camera function. Apart from the primary camera there is a second lens on the LCD which can film a second image. This is then inserted as a picture in picture frame. Now you can film the main event and also get reaction shots as well.

With built in Wi-Fi this Palmcorder can connect to a smart phone and even stream directly to Ustream. With its small form factor, flip around LCD and wi-fi it is well suited to vlogging videos.

You can have a look at our full range of cameras for hire here. Here is what Panasonic have to say about their camera.

"Small twin camera for twice as much fun it. Fits perfectly in the palm of your hand and is highly powerful for filming fun footage. Twin camera and wireless Multi Camera give you more creative options. And the high zoom pulls in the distant objects for added dynamics. With HDR Movie, you get crisp detail in both bright and dark areas."
