Hitachi DZ-GZ3300A

CNET has a review of the Hitachi DZ-GX3300A and writes, “Similar to last year’s DZ-GX20A, the Hitachi DZ-GX3300A’s video quality is about what you’d expect from a midpriced MiniDV camcorder. At low compression, video was sharp with some motion artifacts and edge crawl, along with a bit of blooming. At higher compression levels, banding showed up more often in areas with significant gradations in brightness. Overall, the DZ-GX3300A, with its higher megapixel count, was a touch sharper than its siblings, the Hitachi DZ-GX3200A and the Hitachi DZ-GX3100A. Colors, though accurate, were sometimes oversaturated. … The Hitachi DZ-GX3300A’s still images were impressive for a camcorder, though the auto white balance produced extremely warm results with our lab’s tungsten lights.”
