Customer Reviews

Great picture at a great price2000-10-21
When I purchased this product I was looking primarily at Sonys, but the salesman suggested if I wasn't interested in digital at this time to give the Hitachi a look. I did. For the price the quality can't be beat. The picture is crystal clear and the zoom capabilties are incredible. This is a great camera to record the family outing and dub tapes for the rest of the family. I still am amazed at how clear this camera is, and easy to operate! Good choice.
