Quick Review Camcorders: Hitachi DZ-GX3300

Jaw-dropping video resolution and decent still resolution, - Good selection of ports, - Microphone jack

Very poor handling and a cheaply made body, - Despite the big 1/3" sensor, video quality is very disappointing., - More than any other camcorder this year, the DZ-GX3300 does not live up to its on-paper specs

Hitachi DZ-GX3300A Camcorder Review

 

The Hitachi DZ-GX3300A is Hitachi's top of the heap camcorder this year, and let me tell you, the heap is pretty low. The performance was disappointing and handling was simply abysmal. Hitachi adopted the design from last year's Panasonic DVD...

Easy to use, wide range of discs supported, decent video quality

Poor button layout, poor colour reproduction, still images disappointing

Hitachi DZ-GX3300E

 

This camera provides an acceptable image most consumers will be pleased with, but its strength is when it's coupled with DVD-RAM and able to record over and over again, with the convenience of accessing footage and stills instantly.

One-second recording from sleep mode ; Smart look and feel ; Nice LCD for playback

Average CCD ; Electronic image stabilisation ; No headphone jack and LCD covers speaker

Batteries are typically exhausted faster in these cameras. Using the LCD, standard quality recording continuously would be 105 minutes, but in real life operation where the camera is stopped and started, battery life would last only half that time at...
