Summary: I love it

Comment: This is one of the most versatile cams I ever owned. Eventhough
it is big and probably this is the problem with most people
whoe like small and easily carried cams, it is better than any cam I have ever worked with and I won more than 4. It is stable,
it has plenty of goodies to go along, a very nice zoom for its
age and costs much less than similar handy cams. I bouight in
USA when I studied there and my only problem is that I need
now to change NTSC formats to PAL (I am in Europe now) but the
quality of sound and image is superb.

Summary: Impressive Video Camera

Comment: The Hitachi VM7500LA VHS Camcorder is extremely impressive. It's easy to use, not very expensive, has lots of cool features & gives a clear, crisp picture. My only complaint is that the battery doesn't last very long, so you have to plug it into the wall. Overall though, I love it!!
