About this product

Product Information

Combining two robust formats, DVD and 8 GB HDD, for storage simultaneously in a hybrid design, the Hitachi DZ-HS300A camcorder simplifies and integrates recording, storing, and sharing functions within the unit, all without the need of a PC. The Hitachi hybrid DVD/HDD camcorder weighs 0.9 lbs; has physical dimensions of 3.6 inches in height, 2.4 inches in width, and 5.3 inches in depth; and runs on Lithium-ion batteries, recording up to 110 minutes of video on a single charge. The 1-Second Quick Start from standby mode ensures that the user is ready to shoot almost immediately, and the integrated 8 GB HDD on the hybrid digital camcorder enables almost 6 hours of recording time. The user can directly transfer the contents to a DVD with a single button or edit videos using the thumbnail interface. Moreover, the Multiformat+ drive on the hybrid digital camcorder burns various DVD formats. The Hitachi hybrid DVD/HDD camcorder allows the user to convert any selected frame from the recording into a still digital photograph by simply selecting the frame and saving it as a JPEG image on the SD memory card. Other key features on the Hitachi DZ-HS300A camcorder are a 2.7-inch wide-screen format LCD that records in true 16:9 widescreen, drop-proof Zero G sensor to protect the HDD, 25x optical zoom, 1200x digital zoom, 680k pixel CCD image sensors, MPEG2 encoding, and two-channel Dolby digital audio recording. The Hitachi DZ-HS300A camcorder has a USB 2.0 port for high-speed Internet connectivity to transfer and share video files.

    I love the image quality but a couple of problems

    I like everything about the camcorder except three things. The mini disk aspect doesn't work. I have had the same model of the item before and it did work so I think it's just this one. Every now and then it tells me it needs to repair the data and I lose some stuff I shot. It's very easy ( too easy) to turn the thing off when your filming. But I generally really like it and wold buy another. The battery power last a long time.

  • Read the fine line!

    The Camera is great, but feels more like a toy. It shouldn't for that price. It actually uses minDVDs, not DVDs like it's described by Hitachi. I bought it for that reason because the mini only holds from 30 to 60 mins at the highest quality depending on if you buy the dual layered. If you're going to record at anything less than the highest quality, GOOD LUCK! It doesn't have the night vision mode (I thought every camera had it now so I didn't think to check). Audio recording in the video is not that great. MAKE SURE you buy the WIDE ANGLE lens as they help improve the video quality. Also, this camera is not designed that well for taking still pictures (640X480). Overall, its a great design, but it still feels like a toy. UltraVision my BUTT!!!

  • Good Product- emphasis on Good, Not Excellent, Not Avg.

    This product has some excellent features, particularly the hybrid mode. Though I haven't used the mini-DVD yet, I like the idea of being able to make one for friends on the fly. I'm hooked on the Hard Drive function. Be prepared to suck up some hard drive space on your PC, though. Works really well outside and reasonably well inside. Think LIGHTING (like all camcorders). Some drawbacks are no input (so you can record from another source like DVD player, another camcorder, satellite, etc.) and no remote control (these features come with the HS330A) and worth the extra bucks. It can take still pictures but I've been spoiled with my digital camera and will likely take both with me (get a big enough camcorder bag to hold both) since I like stills better than movies. ...

  • Great camcorder fro the price.

    This camcorder is great for the price. The main feature I love is the ability to dub DVD's straight from the hard drive. Pros: Flexible (DVD and HDD), great close-ups, great zoom, good color reproduction, better low light quality than I expected at this price. Cons: None really but the picture quality is good+ but not great. Picture is really no better or worse than most camcorders in this price range. Also menu is a bit complicated. Most low to mid-priced camcorders have low quality stills, as does this. All in all I am very happy with this camcorder.

  • A Camcorder For All Seasons

    When I was looking for a new camcorder, I suppose I wanted the best of everything - all the pro features, lightweight, cheap to run and uncomplicated to operate. I also wanted somethingthat wouldn't cost a fortune to buy. With the Hitachi DZ HS300A UltraVision I found it! One of the new generation of hybrid Camcorders, the Hitachi combines the convenience of using 8cm Cd-Rw discs a s rcording medium with an on-board 8Gb hard drive for instant useability. This means that, even if you run out of Cds, you can still record acouple of hours-worth of film using the camera alone. What's more, you can actually write Cds in the camera from the hard drive, making it easy to save and store film if you are away from home. It's easily used by any member of the family, being small and lightweight - ...
