Customer Review: Small Wonder is a very good name for it.
Summary: 5 Stars
I didn't want to lug my old bulky VHS-C camcorder on our Disney trip so I bought a Sony MiniDV HCR-62 and was so disappointed with the picture quality that I returned it. While shopping I saw the RCA Small Wonder and I really don't know why I bought it, I figured it's just a toy and I'll probably be very disappointed with it, sorry I wasted money on it. But, boy, was I wrong. I am extremely happy with it. I still can't get over how amazing this thing is.
Before I start remember- it is not a camcorder. Do not expect it to do what a camcorder does. That being said it takes very good quality video even under low light conditions. And it does it with amazing convenience and versatility.
It's the size of a pack of cigarettes-
No moving parts-
A flip screen so you can record yourself-
Works on easily obtainable AA batteries-
Playback your video on the screen-
Play your video on any TV, DVD player or VCR with an audio/video input (cable included)-
Plug it in to your computer and save and watch your video (connector and software included and built in)-
Record a half hour of quality video on it's internal memory-
Insert a 2GB memory card and record another 2 hours of quality video-
Use as many memory cards as you need-
Easy to use-
2X digital zoom-
I brought my old camcorder to Disney with us but I still took 5 hours of video on the RCA Small Wonder because it was so easy to use and we're very satisfied with the results. I even used it on Test Track with good results. Fireworks displays come out very good with good color. Some camcorders record fireworks as white, the RCA Small Wonder showed the colors with no problem.
When we got home I downloaded all the videos into my computer where I can e-mail them to family or friends if I want with the included software. I also recorded them onto regular VHS tape for regular TV viewing. You could also record onto a DVD if you prefer. The RCA Small wonder is also sold with a special DVD recorder. I didn't know about it before I bought mine. Wish I had know about it before, I would have bought it.
Of course nothing is perfect. The viewfinder/screen is hard to see in bright sunlight. It's easy to accidentally turn it on in your pocket (play mode only, not record mode so it's not a problem really). The digital zoom is grainy and not really useful. Recording time with alkaline batteries was only fair but excellent with Lithium batteries (I got way over 4 hours with Lithium batteries).
If you are recording special events like a new baby you want to use a quality camcorder but if you want to have fun making family memories or need an easy way to create simple video projects for work or school this is the video recorder to use. We love this thing and everyone I show it to is planning on getting one.
