Summary

Review summaries for Hitachi DZ-HS300A from expert camcorder reviewers.

slippery power switch

Hitachi DZ-HS300A:CNet

The bottom line:
Hitachi had a good idea--put both a hard disk drive and a DVD in a camcorder--but implements it poorly in the DZ-HS300A.
"
Poor video and photo quality."
"
On the off chance that you don't care about the mediocre video, perhaps you'll find its design problems a bit more off-putting."
"
slippery power switch"
"
it performs reasonably well, with decent focus speed and accuracy."
"
The zoom switch is a tad sensitive"
"
The four-way switch that you use to navigate the menus--necessary if you want to choose from among the handful of scene modes and white-balance presets--feels stiff and is frequently nonresponsive if you move too quickly."

a convenient high-definition camcorder

DVD Camcorder Review: Hitachi DZHS300A Hybrid HDD/DVD:Videomaker

For a single chip camcorder, we're pleased to see such vibrant colors that appear natural in well-lit scenes. There's easy access to buttons and controls and the 2.7" wide screen format LCD was just the right size for this camcorder. *
"
Overall, we were very pleased with its operation"

mediocre video

Hitachi DZ-HS300A:CNet

It's too bad about the slippery power switch and poor video quality, because the idea of the Hitachi DZ-HS300A has great mass appeal. The zoom switch is a tad sensitive, but not too bad if you're not mainlining caffeine. *

ridiculous 1200x digital zoom"

chunky battery

Hitachi DZ-HS300A Camcorder Review:CamcorderInfo

The circular side-mounted menu control is gawky and awkward, and in fact deserves its own word: Gawkward. *
