From the Manufacturer
Hitachi introduces three DVD camcorders for its fifth generation product line-up. The latest models offer a host of improvements, including a new imaging engine for a 20 percent improvement in noise reduction and 20 percent longer battery life. A new DVD drive has also reduced the product size by 15 percent and a bare DVD load creates a sleeker, more compact design overall. The new Hitachi UltraVision DZ-GX20A, DZ-MV750A, and DZ-MV780A DVD camcorders are designed to meet different consumer needs and all feature a 50 percent faster start time and improvements in overall image quality.
The wide-screen 16:9 format presents a larger field of view than the standard 4:3 format.

In addition to the numerous technical enhancements based on the new imaging engine and DVD drive, the DZ-GX20A, DZ-MV750A, and DZ-MV780A feature an SD or MMC memory card to make sharing still photos even easier with other electronic devices, such as photo printers, digital print stations and SD-compatible PCs, TVs and DVD recorders. All of the 2005 Hitachi DVD Camcorder models also feature a dedicated photo button for ease of use, as well as a 'ready-when-you-are' record start time of only seven seconds. This is an improvement of more than 50 percent over previous generation products from Hitachi, enabling consumers to always be ready to record.
Hitachi was the first to manufacture a DVD camcorder, anticipating the market trends and the needs of our customers. We continue that dedication to users by constantly improving our products based on their feedback and the latest engineering innovations. This commitment is clearly demonstrated in the new 2005 Hitachi DVD Camcorders--a more precise picture, more intuitive functions, longer battery--the ultimate in design and versatility for today's user.
There are several ways to connect the Hitachi DZ-MV780 to your home theater and computer.
