1 out of 5 stars I WILL NOT BUY ANY HITACHI BRAND ANYMORE   July 30, 2006
I bought Hitachi DZ-MV350A(NTSC). It does show errors a lot for any reason and we couldn't watch on our dvd player after finalized. It wasn't easy to operate and and copy to another dvd-r. I did go crazy to understand how to operate and what to do (even after reading the manual several times).


5 out of 5 stars An extra digital camera not necessary with this baby   December 4, 2005
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

While I admit the processing software was slightly annoying initially, we've been completely satified since installation. Being able to store it all on the computer as a secondary back up to the disks is a relief too as disks are too delicate for my tastes as the only means of holding precious keepsake photos and videos.

We've had no software glitches or disk/card initializing problems.

I do not understand why so many other reviewers also have a digital camera. With my Hitachi I can, with a flick of my thumb, change from video to photo without jiggling the camcorder in the slightest. The photo feature allows the user to take up to 3,500 "fine" quality pictures on a single 512mb card. I have stood on the lake bank taking pictures with my Hitachi 200-300 feet out, zoomed in on the boat, and caught a close up still of my 4 year old grandson reeling in one of his first fish in such fantistic detail to where you can even see the fishing line! Why would anyone want to have to lug around an extra digital camera when this one does it all? Beyond me.



5 out of 5 stars IT is a Great Camera   July 17, 2005
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I already paid for a sony dvd camera but when I tested it and gave it some beating with the functions,it was so bad.Then the salesman gave me this HITACHI dvd camera.I tried it and tested it.It was awesome and gave it some test too. It was clear and stable.It was worth every penny.Though,some folks still find the brand name Hitachi to be unpopular.If you look at the products of this company it may be considered as high end compared with the more mass or consumer famous brands.I will give this camera a grade of 5. I did not regret returning the sony and paying more for this camera. It was very worth it.
One drawback though, I am using mac.This media or Hitachi dvd cam is not compatible with Mac.My only wish is that someone be able to make a software that will make this camera compatible with Mac. I hope HITACHI will make that effort to create a software for Mac.
Someone was complaining about sticking with analog and unable to play this on some player.Well,part of the reason why they are complaining is ingnorance.Read the manual first and play around with your camera. Teach yourself on how to be part of a new generation.Probably once you fully comprehend how it works, you will appreciate it even more.Consider it like a new trick for an old dog.This camera is worth every penny.



3 out of 5 stars Don't buy this   July 1, 2005
 2 out of 3 found this review helpful

I was swayed by the promise of playing a burned DVD right out of camera. and now I wish I had stuck to my old analog Video (Hitachi) which never gave me any trouble.
It's the DVDs that are full of errors. I went to Europe with this camera and out of 8 disks , 6 could not be read!! Worst still they can not be played straight on DVD.
Do not waste your money on this, instead buy a cheaper miniDV camera.



4 out of 5 stars 5* for Camera, 1* for the Software.   May 4, 2005
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

I bought the camera in January '05 for a trip abroad. Filmed 5 DVD-RAM disks over the following 3 weeks and absolutely loved the camera. The picture is very good, the sound sensitivity is excellent and the low light capability is fine. Definitely plan to have 2 batteries... this may even not be sufficient for several hours of intensive use.

The problems arose when I came home and tried to edit the recordings... I ran into initial issues with the supplied software, so bought DVD editing and recording software to use in lieu of that which came with the camera.

In short, the camera uses a USB cable to transfer video to the HDD, and ALL the software I tried is incompatible with this process. In all, I successively bought Easy Media Creator 7.0, Nero 6, MyDVD 6 and Sony... not one of which could I get to support my video transfer. And even worse, once installed, each of these packages then blocks your capability to use the originally provided editing software, as it then can't access the camera!

Now, I have uninstalled all of the purchased software and have reconcilled myself to using the provided materials. It is certainly OK, but frustrating. Further, I never found any mention in the literature, on the support pages, or otherwise, of the incompatibality between camera and commercial software. In fact, some software specifically says it supports USB transfer, but only later do you discover the software only supports still picture transfer by USB... hardly of value with a video camera.

So... the camera is really nice but plan to use the supplied software...
