Editorial Reviews: With the RCA EZ201 SmallWonder, there is no easier way to share and save the moments worth remembering. Whether a scenic vacation destination, a child’s basketball game or just a simple backyard barbeque with your family, this easy-to-use digital camcorder is ready whenever and wherever. Play, pause, delete, rewind, and fast forward clips on the color 1.5-inch LCD screen, which also flips out 180 degrees. The EZ201 offers up to an hour of recording with its on-board flash memory, which can be expanded up to five hours with the addition of an SD memory card (sold separately) that will slide easily into the unit's memory slot. Two standard AA batteries provide up to two hours of continuous use (or more than seven hours with optional lithium batteries), making the EZ201 ideal for vacations and travel. The EZ Grab feature also enables the user to select a paused frame in any video and save it as a single image.
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Junk Comment: Out of the box this item did not work. I returned for a refund, I went to NewEgg and bought another brand. This item was sold by and outside company NOT Amazon, also, there service was not good and I think this is an off shore seller, when I called to report the item did not work the person I spoke to was no American very hard to understand. Watch out who you buy from with Amazon, I have started to move my business to other sellers. Customer Rating: Summary: But it doesn't work with Vista OS! Comment: I read a review on here that says the EZ201 works with Windows Vista, but it does not. I bought it and I like the way it works, but I cannot install Memory Manager on my computer from the device, nor from the files, nor from Audiovox/RCA web site - they don't offer a download for 201 because it's supposed to come from the camcorder, and they don't have a patch for it either. I called the service center and they said it is not compatible with Vista. Now they didn't sound like the sharpest tools in the box, but if it was compatible or if there was a patch, it would be on the RCA Small Wonder web site and it is not. Now I have to contact Discount Jungle to find out how to return it. What a pain in the neck. I guess the moral of the story is beware older models of technology as they might not be compatible with newer Windows OS. I guess it's worth paying the extra $ to get something that is not already outdated. I know that Amazon doesn't take any responsibility for what its vendors sell through their web site, but you'd think someone would let the consumer know that this EZ201 does not work with Vista. Boo. Customer Rating: Summary: Pretty happy with this Comment: We chose to get an older model camera for our 8 year old, with good cnet reviews, to save some money. We're pretty happy with this camera, except for the fact that because it is an older model, the software does not work with our computer with Windows Vista. That is dissapointing to me, but my daughter doesn't know the difference. She's having a great time with it and we've found a different way to edit and store her videos. I really wish this camera had a still photo option though. Customer Rating: Summary: Cute, Easy, and Cheap! Comment: I don't know why so many people expect this camera to be like an HD camera or something. It's cheap, small, and just plain FUN! I make all of my youtube videos with this camera. If you turn on a lamp...it helps a lot! I highly recommend this for someone looking for something quick & easy! Customer Rating: Summary: Turns off when bumped. Comment: Buddy & I mounted this to a hang glider to film his flight. His landing was a bit of an event and we were eager to see the playback. However, we received a "File error" message & no video. Subsequent experimentation yielded the discovery that the camera would turn off when in the "record" mode if bumped by a rap of the knuckles. If you plan to mount this cam as a "sport camera" (on a bike or motorcycle, e.g.) you may want to test it first. Striking the bottom portion of the camera (as in knocking on a door) was more likely to cause a power off situation. More Reviews
