Title: Hitachi DZMV780A
Pros: Good video quality for a miniDVD camcorder. Saves still images on SD media card. Easy to use.
Cons: MiniDVD-RAM format not compatible with all DVD hardware. Color is sometimes oversaturated. Pricey.
Verdict: The Hitachi DZMV780A is an easy-to-use camcorder that provides good to very good quality in normal light. Disc-compatibility issues hold it back, though.

Title: Hitachi DZ-GX3100A
Pros: Decent low-light video quality; impressive battery life; in-camera editing.
Cons: Hidden touch-sensitive controls; low-res stills.
Verdict: If you're looking for an inexpensive DVD camcorder and you don't care about stills, Hitachi's DZ-GX3100A is worth a look.
Summary: As the little sibling of Hitachi's DZ-GX3300A and DZ-GX3200A, the DZ-GX3100A serves up an almost identical feature set, as well as pleasing performance and better than average image quality when shooting in low light. The main difference between the three

Title: Hitachi DZ-HS300E
Pros: One-touch dubbing from hard drive to DVD; supports a wide variety of DVD formats
Cons: Poor video and photo quality; easy to accidentally turn power off and switch modes
Verdict: Hitachi had a good idea -- put both a hard disk drive and a DVD in a camcorder -- but implements it poorly in the DZ-HS300E
Summary: Hitachi's DZ-HS300E is a budget hybrid HDD/DVD-based camcorder, ideal if you want the stability of hard drive recording with the easy playback and distribution of a DVD. It's not a bad performer, but the image quality is far from perfect

Title: Hitachi DZ-HS500
Pros: 30GB hard disk; one-touch video transfer to DVD
Cons: Long start-up and mode switching times; soft video quality
Verdict: The Hitachi DZ-HS500's performance is uninspired, but the hybrid storage function that allows you to edit footage on the 30GB hard and share it on 8cm DVDs is still impressive -- especially at this price.
Summary: The Hitachi DZ-HS500 combines two different formats in one with hybrid technology. With DVD and hard drive choices, it sidesteps the problems of picking one storage method, making the camera more user-friendly. With plenty of space for top quality video,

Summary: The format war is over and with Blu-ray victorious, the Hitachi DZ-BD70E attempts to claim the spoils as the first Blu-ray camcorder on the market. Recording 'Full HD' footage on to Blu-ray discs, this shooter also provides plenty of features, plus an int

Title: Hitachi DZ-BD7HE
Pros: >Hybrid technology,, Backwards compatibility for DVD ,
Cons: Design Shaky movies Shocking lowlight performance
