Product Description
Digital picture quality is largely dependent upon the number of pixels used to capture an image. Like a digital still camera, the CCD pixel count is essential for creating a vibrant life-like picture. Hitachi's exclusive oversampling technology uses up to six times the pixels of conventional DVD camcorders to capture more detail and resolution than ever possible before. These CCD chips produce images of an even greater resolution than DVD requires, and the resulting video quality gives movies unmatched dimension and clarity. Hitachi oversampling technology captures significantly more image information, which gives the advanced processor more data for optimal picture performance. The breakthrough DZGX3300A is able to record images that are six times the number of pixels required for DVD. The processor can then reference six pixels for every one it creates for the final image. The result is more crisp and sharp life-like images for both captured video and still images.

This camcorder is amazing for its picture quality and ease of use. Our family is already enjoying the many features at a fairly reasonable price for home use.
 Never been more disappointed in my life April 28, 2007

I bought this item as a gift for my husband. After 2 1/2 months, we thought we finally had it figured out. But just this evening, it erased the latest disc when my husband plugged it in to try and finalize it. It just displayed "Disc Access" for several minutes before shutting itself off. When he was finally able to get it to come back up, everything on it (our sons' track finals and talent show) was gone. I definitely would not recommend this product as it is too tempermental and difficult to use, not to mention the heartache caused by losing precious moments such as the ones we lost today.
Stay away from HItachi DVDCams May 8, 2007

I own a previous model Hitachi DVDCam. I have had several of my DVD's become corrupt and unreadable after I had recorded (and viewed) several videos on them. I called Hitachi and after a LONG phone call was basically told that I had bad luck and they were sorry. It is a porblem with the DVD itself and they do not stand behind the DVD's (because they are from a different manufacturer). My only option is to contact a data recovery service to get back my hours of lost video. Looks like that will cost me about $200-400 for two discs.
I understand that they do not make the DVD's, but their cameras use them. If I can record my videos on to them, I should be able to see those videos again. The only way to use their DVDCams are to record onto DVD's! Save your money and frustration and don't risk losing your precious family memories!
Disk errors = No video of daughter first birthday April 28, 2007

After 4 months of light use the Hitachi DZ-GX3200A (a camera that appears to share many components with the 3300) it decided to start giving disk errors, resulting in the loss of all video of my daughters first birthday. It will format and start to use the disks, only to show a disk error sometime during the recording. I have be unable to recover ANY data from the disks after an error occurs.
I live in Houston, TX and the closest repair facility is about an 1.5 hour round trip. And because only parts are covered by the cheep-o warranty, it would cost me $75 in labor just to have an estimate done (applied to the cost of fixing it if I go forward). So now I have to decide: Is it worth driving 3 hours (drop off and pick up) and spending at least $75 to fix a camara that broke after just 4 months? Am I willing to trust it to film my daughters 2nd birthday? Guess I've got me a $400 paper weight, because I'll be buying another brand.
