What’s in the Box?
The Hitachi DZ-BD7HA ships with the following items:

-DZ-BP14S Battery Pack
-DZ-ACS3 AC Adapter/Charger
-DC Power Cord -DZ-RM4W Remote Control
-CR2032 Lithium Battery
-Power Cable
-AV/S Cable
-Component Cable
-Software CD-ROM (Pixela Image Mixer 3 HD Edition)
-USB Cable
-Disc Cleaning Cloth
-8 cm BD-RE Single Sided Disc

The only items worth purchasing after you first unsheathe the DZ-BD7HA are an HDMI cable and a couple backup batteries. Other than that, Hitachi paves the way right out of the box.

Other Features (2.0)
Backlight Compensation (BLC)- When a subject is underexposed within a bright background, Backlight Compensation adjusts the overall exposure so the subject is brought into more even light.

Quick Start- Much like Canon’s Quick Start, Hitachi’s version powers the camcorder on with all saved settings in approximately one second from Standby mode.

Dubbing - The Hitachi DZ-BD7HA is able to transfer video from the HDD onto a blank DVD, entirely within the camcorder.
