The quality of the recording in anything other than bright daylight is abysmal and cannot be called high definition. It seems to have lines throughout the image, as if there was some kind of interference/static. 2. The camera takes an eternity to focus on the desired object; a blurry image appears instead. That is especially true when the camera is turned on and when using the zoom. 3. The manual says that by pressing the button “BLC” when filming someone indoors against bright light will fix the darkness problem, but it doesn’t work (the person filmed is still completely dark, and the person’s face can’t even be seen). Overall, the camera does NOT seem to be functioning as a high definition – full HD – quality camera. My 1080i Sony Camcorder that was bought over one year ago has much better image quality.

I waited months for it to become available. My disappointment with its performance was immediate. Very poor image quality indoors, and almost impossible to operate in low light. I quickly returned the camera and will try others.

Van” (Alabama) – See all my reviews    This review is from: Hitachi DZ-BD7HA BluRay 5.3MP DVD Hybrid High Definition Camcorder with 30GB Hard Drive & 10x Optical Zoom (Electronics) As a first in any product, you might expect flaws, but this one is fatally flawed. Video quality is poor. Very poor. I recommend looking elsewhere for much cheaper. This product is not worth your money. Look at Sony or Panasonic.
