DZHS500A News Release Summary:
LAS VEGAS (CES BOOTH 11906), Jan. 8, 2007 – Hitachi takes the
guess work out of having to choose a camcorder format by
combining the long recording times of hard disk drives and the
easy-to-share attributes of DVDs. Consumers can record up to 23
hours of home videos and then dub a highlight reel to a DVD disk
with a simple push of a button, bypassing the PC completely.
Hitachi America, Ltd. Ubiquitous Platform Systems Division’s
consumer group today unveiled a new generation of UltraVision®
camcorders that include the first two hybrid products capable of
recording video directly to either formats. The DZH500A model,
which was selected as an CES Innovations 2007 honoree in the
Portable Electronics: Audio/Video category and records onto a
wide array of DVD formats, including DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD-RAM and
DVD+RW, features a 30GB hard drive, 30X optical zoom, SD memory
card slot, and will be available in April for about $800.
Hitachi Hybrid Camcorders lets consumers shoot and capture many
hours of home movie memories directly to the built-in hard drive
without changing discs or tapes or running out of space. The
critical last step to enjoying and sharing these memories
however is to transfer those movies from the Hard Drive to
DVD’s, and the Hitachi Hybrid products are the only camcorders
in the world that allow consumers to record to Hard Drive then
transfer to DVD right in the camcorder with the push of a
button.
“The Hitachi Hybrid DVD+HDD camcorders provide customers with
the ultimate convenience of a single, affordable device capable
of supporting the two most popular video formats on the market
today,” said Jeff Fochtman, product manager for Hitachi America,
Ltd., Ubiquitous Platform Systems Division. “Customers who value
ease of use in a high-technology product are very excited about
the hybrid camcorder’s ability to dub multiple DVDs straight
from the camcorder’s hard drive.”
All new Hitachi models feature 1-Second Quick Start, providing
the fastest start-up time from standby of any device on the
market; and a One Touch Finalize Button feature to easily
accomplish that critical last step. Superior imaging is made
possible with Hitachi’s Cinema Res™ Advanced Image Processing
with high resolution capture, an exclusive technology that uses
the entire CCD to capture both video and still images before
converting to DVD format, utilizing the camcorder’s entire
capacity to create a sharper, more detailed picture.
ULTRAVISION® DZHS500A – LONG RECORDING TIMES,
EASY DVD DUBS
The DZHS500A hybrid model offers the flexible
capacity of an internal hard drive ideal for vacations when you
want to grab a lot of footage but not to carry DVD discs, or for
recording long events where you plan to produce highlight reels
from the footage. The internal hard drive also makes downloading
footage to a computer for editing a snap as well as performing
basic in-camera editing when no computer is available. The
1-Touch Easy Dubbing feature lets users quickly burn footage
stored on the hard disk drive to DVD for playback on most home
DVD players. Built to withstand the rigors of family outings,
the Hitachi hybrid camcorders offer a unique drop-proofing
system that automatically detect falls, suspends read/write
activity and cushions the hard drive for impact.
Hitachi’s top-of-the-line UltraVision® DZHS500A DVD Hybrid
Camcorder features a polished smoked-chrome finish and
aerodynamic design for a dramatically contemporary styling. This
model also includes Composite inputs. To learn more about the
