While users are still undecided as to what will be their preferred next generation of high definition video disc format, Hitachi had already revealed its champion by creating the first Blu-ray Disc camcorder, the DZ-BD7HA. The imager of the DZ-BD7HA is a single 1/2.8 CMOS sensor. It shoots Full HD at 1920x1080 pixels in MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format, to the hard drive or to a staggering array of removable media, including 8cm Blu-ray Disc (BD-RE, BD-R) and 8cm standard-definition DVD discs (DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, DVD-R). According to the reviewer, the main bonus with using a Blu-ray disc is the amount of time it gives you to record videos. The capacity of a mini Blu-ray Disc is 7.5 gigabytes, compared to 1.4 gigabytes for a regular mini DVD-R. This allows you to record far more high-definition footage to one disc. And with Blu-ray players starting to make their way into more and more people’s living room, you get to deliver HD video a whole lot easier. The addition of Blu-ray disc in the lineup of the many options available, it gives the consumer more recording time and more disc format options for delivery.
