The Hitachi Hybrid Camcorder is the ultimate combination of capacity and convenience. Shoot video longer with the hard drive and share DVDs even faster using just the camcorder. No host PC or additional DVD burning hardware is required. The Hybrid features an 8GB internal Hitachi Hard Disk Drive and support for Multi-Format+ DVD-RAM/-R/ -RW/+RW burning.

Hitachi's own 8GB Hard Disk Drive delivers outstanding recording time and unbeatable reliability. Whatever you're filming, there's always the chance that the media you're using will run out at just the wrong moment. But the Hybrid Camcorder's built-in 8GB hard drive lets you record up to 6 hours without having to stop and change tapes or discs. And the hard disk is designed to withstand drops and shocks to protect your precious video data.

Quickly and easily burn video from the hard drive to DVD with our Hybrid Camcorders. Make as many copies as you have discs, right on the spot and right when you need to, without the need for a PC or external DVD burning hardware.

PictureMaster™ is Hitachi's exclusive video processing technology. It uses a high quality image processing LSI and an MPEG-2 LSI to deliver vibrant colors and captivating detail.

Life doesn't wait to be filmed. That's why our Hybrid Camcorders feature 1-Second Quick Start from standby -- the fastest start-up time of any camcorder on the market. You'll never have to worry about missing those precious moments again.
