4.0 out of 5 stars Great Camcorder, May 13, 2001

The size of this camcorder makes it very convenient and it is very user-friendly. You are able to record and view what you have recorded. With a simple attachment you are able to view it on TV. For the price it is a great value because you are getting the basics of what you really need without all the extras that you will not use a whole lot and it is not too complicated to figure out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Camera!!!!!!, October 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: RCA PRO854 Hi8 Camcorder (Electronics)

I wasn't expecting much from this camera especially from the low price. I was very pleasantly surprised to find the quality of this camera. The zoom feature at 16x is excellent and the picture comes out good. You can use either alkaline AA batteries or the Ni-Cad battery pack or if you have an outlet nearby you can connect to any AC outlet! This camera even works in the dark due to the AE(Auto Exposure) feature. This a great buy!!!!

I have had this RCA pro 8x zoom auto focus for about two weeks and it has been a joy doing the basic things with it, it shows a very good picture and it is very light weight, I would like to learn more about it, but I do not have the manual, can you PLEASE help me by getting me a manual, If you need more information about the camcorder just let me know and I will send it to you. Thank you in advance Sylvester Bingham
