2. Introduction
• There's nothing like popping in an old
home movie and reliving great memories.
• True, you could probably do without some of
the memories. But if such milestones must go
on record, don't you think that Kodak moment
of you falling down the stairs on the first day
of high school would look so much better in
high definition? High-definition (HD)
camcorders make that possible.
3. Comparing High-definition Digital
Video Cameras
• Like standard digital video cameras, high-
definition digital video cameras (or
camcorders) come in many sizes, price
ranges and capabilities.
4. More High-definition Camcorder
Features
• Advancements in technology never cease to
amaze, and the newest HD camcorders are no
exception. With options that can fit in your
pocket and take professional quality still
photos, you may find yourself ditching your
still camera altogether.
5. Editing and Playing High-definition
Camcorder Footage
• There's nothing like reliving life's greatest
moments in high definition. Before you can
watch your life in astonishing detail on that
giant screen, you'll want to transfer the video
from the camcorder to your television or your
HDTV.
6. • If you're not into editing but still want to make
minor changes to your videos, like combining
or deleting scenes, some cameras, like the
Hitachi DZ-BD7HA, allow you to perform these
minor edits directly on the device. This
particular Hitachi model can record directly to
a Blu-ray disc, which you can instantly play on
a regular Blu-ray player.
