Digital camera reviews of RCA EZ201 Small Wonder 60 Minute Point-and-Shoot Camcorder (White)
Digital camera Review: RCA Small Wonder is big on convenience
Summary: 4 Stars
I really like this camcorder. It is easy to use and you can use it quickly. No big bulky camcorder to fiddle with, this RCA fits in a pocket or glove compartment. Easily hooks to computer with software already on the machine itself. Can quickly upload videos to share. More advanced models are now on the market - so these can be had for a great price. Has a slot for an SD card for extra record time.Digital camera Review: RCA Small Wonder vs. Flip Ultra
Summary: 4 Stars
I recently purchased both cameras in November. I tried them both indoors and out. Here is my experience. Both cameras are extremely easy to use and upload videos to web sites like Youtube. The Flip Ultra seemed to take better indoor videos due to lower light settings. They are still grainy like the RCA just a tad better. Outdoors both seemed to do fine. After taking about 10 different videos, in different settings with both cameras, I found the Ultra to make a tiny bit better quality video. However, I ended up keeping the RCA because it was ALOT cheaper (Flip was $149 on sale and the RCA was $89 on sale), has the upgradable SD card slot and flip out screen. Keep in mind though that these are not camcorder quality cameras. These are meant to take close distance, well lit subject videos to easily email or upload to Youtube using the built in software.Digital camera Review: Small I Wonder why they didn't do this sooner
Summary: 4 Stars
This product is great for those times when you don't want to drag out the expensive video camera. The only advice I would offer is that you always use it in the HQ mode. The LP mode tends to be a bit blurry.Digital camera Review: Small Wonder
Summary: 4 Stars
The Small Wonder delivers everything that it claims. Easy to use, handy, convenient, computer interface, etc are all great features. Movie resolution is pretty good at highest resolution. The additional memory chip is great for storing additional movies. Downsides-screen is hard to see in bright sun light and distance shots are not practical. Definitely best in the close up world of candid movies--kids parties, family get-togethers and the like. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase.Digital camera Review: Small Wonder Great for Webvideos
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased a small wonder just to take on vacation for short little videos that could be sent to family members or on websites. We let the kids use it to video whatever they felt was fun and important. It handled everything pretty well.
Pros - easy to use, quick, simple to operate, videos are good enough for e-mailing and website. Files are in AVI format, so they can be viewed by Quicktime or Windows Media Player (with the right audio/video codec installed).
Cons - Fairly low quality (ok on a pc/mac). Software on PC doesn't always appear, so you have to copy the files off the device manually. NO Mac software or support.
