Hitachi DZ-GX20A

Conclusion

At well over $700 ($799), the Hitachi DZ-GX20A is hard to recommend.  With uneven video quality, poorer than poor stills and a manual only the authors could love, this one is a loser.  That said, it makes my job simple:  Just don't buy it.

Pros

• Compact, lightweight package
• Records on DVD-RAM and DVD-R
• Quality LCD screen in dim and bright light

Cons

• Bad video quality
• Pathetic 2MP stills
• Poor documentation
