Hitachi has announced that it is planning on releasing camcorders that will record full HD images (1,920 x 1,080 pixels) on to a 3″ Blu-Ray disc.
Each of the discs will be able to hold 7 GB of MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 video.
The cameras in the image are non-functioning models, but Hitachi claims that they will feature a new 8cm drive and have a 5.3 megapixel CMOS sensor.
No price has yet been announced for the devices, but they are expected to be in high-street shops by late autumn.
I particularly like the look of the camera in the
foreground on the image, it reminds me a little of the old Bolex 16mm film cameras.

I do rather like that, but damn it’s going to be expensive.
I’d prefer a camera that records to a hard drive in the camera. I just don’t trust removable media. You could always burn it to Blu-Ray disc from a PC.
Are there any consumer hard drive based camcorders?
JVC and Sony both have HDD based camcorders (HD and SD), most of them have 20 or 30GB Drives built in, but the top of the line JVC uses microdrives (or normal compact flash presumably) so you can keep swaping drives and batteries all day.
This comcorder camera is very so this swaping drives and batteries all day.
So can keep swaping drives and batteries al day.
This site is very nice and this camcorder is very heardwork do it for me wish he all the best.
