    Why does the color or brightness change on my Panasonic HC-VX870 Camcorder, or why do I see horizontal bars?
    • A
      Anna AdamsSep 2, 2025
      Color or brightness changes and horizontal bars may appear when recording under fluorescent, mercury, or sodium light. This isn't a malfunction. In Motion Picture Recording Mode, use Intelligent Auto Mode/Intelligent Auto Plus Mode, or set the shutter speed to 1/100 in 50 Hz areas, or 1/125 in 60 Hz areas. This will not affect the recorded image in Still Picture Recording Mode. In FULL HD Slow Motion Mode, setting the shutter speed to 1/100 seconds reduces the intensity of the problem.

    What to do if my Panasonic Camcorder displays the error message “ERROR OCCURRED. PLEASE TURN UNIT OFF, THEN TURN ON AGAIN.”?

      Angela SanchezSep 7, 2025
      This message indicates that the Panasonic Camcorder has detected an error. Try restarting the unit by turning it off and then on again. If the error message continues to appear after restarting, the device likely requires repair. Detach the power and consult the dealer from whom you purchased the unit. Do not attempt to repair it yourself.

    What to do if my Panasonic HC-VX870 Camcorder unit is turned off automatically?

      Kelsey PerezSep 13, 2025
      If your Panasonic Camcorder turns off automatically when you turn off the TV using the TV remote, it may be due to the VIERA Link function. If you are not using VIERA Link, disable it by setting [VIERA Link] to [OFF].

    Why is the battery indicator inaccurate on my Panasonic HC-VX870 Camcorder?
    • R
      robertthomasAug 30, 2025
      If the remaining battery indication on your Panasonic Camcorder isn't displaying correctly, it's because the indication is an approximation. To recalibrate, fully charge the battery, then fully discharge it, and then charge it again.
