Setting the Record Straight (no pun intended) November 21, 2006

Ignore the September 17 review. It's sad to see individuals, who do not have the patience to study the instructions, offer such inappropriate criticism because of their unwarranted frustration. The key is to READ the manual before using the camcorder. The explanations are in the manual. DVD camcorders are not as simple as the older 8 mm and VHS-C versions. The problem is that inexperienced people will buy this state-of-the-art technology, push a button, and expect miracles.
Once you gain an understanding of this camcorder, it will work as advertised. I've had mine for 2 months now and have had no problems. The picture quality is top notch. It works well in low light, although you should not expect night vision results. Autofocus works fine, just don't pan too fast - and, in fact, if you are experienced at using camcorders you should not pan fast anyway (that's poor technique). Manual focus is there if you need it. And, yes, you must finalize the disc - not a big deal (read the manual). When you see the features this Hitachi 3200 camcorder has, you'll find that it is the best one going for the price - best value. It can accommodate nearly every recording format including DVD-RAM, and also will take 2.1 megapixel photos. Canon, Sony, and Panasonic can't match it on features vs. price. I researched this and this sold me on the Hitachi 3200. I am not disappointed. Hitachi pioneered this technology and it shows.
UPDATE: As of May 13, 2008, my Hitachi camcorder is still going strong - including trips to Antarctica and Armenia (in the Caucasus)!!! No problems. Again, read the manual to appreciate this technology and to use it properly.
Excellent buy for the money January 6, 2007

I was impressed by the picture quality this camera offers in the DVD class, the best thing I like is video in low light conditions. I would recommend to anyone who wants to buy a DVD camera for family activities
Christmas Fun January 16, 2007

I bought this camcorder for my kids for Christmas, they are having a lot of fun with it. They kept finding new capabilities/functions on it.
 Started good then faded January 18, 2007

Update 1/19/10 - This camera was great in the beginning but we started having problems with it about 6 months after we got it. Have now replaced it with a Sony. I wouldn't buy this if I had it to do again. On the bright side, when it's working the picture quality is still pretty high.
We got this camcorder just before Christmas so I've only had a couple of opportunities to use it. That being said, overall this camera has performed pretty well. My only complaint is that it doesn't do well in low light (maybe none of them do). It's very easy to use and gives you a good picture on playback. Compared to other camcorders, I think this one's a pretty good value.
