Well worth the price... November 29, 2008
I bought this camera to take video of a new puppy.
PROS:
- Small. Not any bigger than a pack of cards.
- Cheap. I don't worry too much about damaging it.
- Takes two AA batteries. Easy to change. No battery pack, etc.
- Memory can be upgraded and cards are cheap now.
- Audio sensitivity is OK
- Auto power off after a few minutes.
- No moving parts; no worries about maintenance or things getting knocked out of alignment.
- Easily concealed for candid shots. In a pinch, and at the internet quality setting (longer recording time), it could probably even be used for el cheapo surveillance.
CONS:
- Limited zoom. Only 2x.
- Image looses focus and is fuzzy at extreme zoom. Better to move closer to whatever you're shooting rather than use the zoom, which is pretty much worthless anyway.
- Batteries don't last long, but they're cheap.
- I wish I could turn off the audio alert the camera makes when powering up; it has wrecked a few candid shots I wanted to get of my German Shep pup, who reacted to the tone when it sounded...
- Lack of an optical viewfinder means its hard to view things in the viewfinder in bright sunlight, but thats pretty much a fault for all LCD screens.
- Poor quality when recording at the extended time (think of the older tape-based units).
All in all, I LIKE it. The software is easy to install and use. Has a little carrying case and an offer to purchase custom skins if you're into that sort of thing. Is it a camera I would buy to take video of new babies or the trip to England and meeting with Queen Elizabeth? No, but for the price, it serves it's purpose well...
 Great item, gets you the shot quickly November 28, 2008
I purchased this camera from Amazon on the 13 of November, did my research beforehand. After receiving this camcorder I started playing with it. It's easy to learn, fun to use. It allows me to quickly get those little snippets of life that we have and wished we had a picture of it. Well, now I do. For sharing these snippets with the family this is so great, upload them to the internet and they can share things too. Sound isn't that great but this wasn't meant to be as great a camcorder as something you pay $300 to $500 for, but it's also not as heavy, quick to start, etc. I find the picture quality very good for this type of camera. I'm very pleased with it. Those that order it thinking they are getting top of the line product should do their research first. It's a fun gadget, grabs the quick shot and downloads are easy.
Love this little camera October 15, 2008

RCA EZ205 Small Wonder Digital Camcorder with 2 Hour Recording and 1GB Included Memory
I considered first a Flip video camera, but when I saw the RCA Small Wonder, I decided to give it a try.
I am so pleased with my choice. I have taken it to my son's soccer games and am looking forward to his karate tournaments. What a wonderful way to record and share his special childhood moments. Note:I would suggest including a mini tripod in your purchase, it just gives you more flexibility if you are recording yourself, for You Tube.
Great Buy!
Great Little Video Camera October 7, 2008

I bought this camera to video my grandson as he is doing little things during the day. I really like the quality of this camera. Video quality is great, and sound quality is great. It picked up conversation from across the room. I Like the way you can also add more memory to this camera and not have to hook up the camera to you computer to download the videos. Software that comes with it is also good quality.
Excellent Upgrade October 5, 2008

I had the first model & it's obvious they understood the few problems with that one when they designed this model. Very easy to use & pretty decent quality video, considering its small size. I like the new snapshot feature.
