Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

RCA's CC9360 camcorder records and plays back video in a completely digital format, creating vibrant images and quality sound. With the 2.5-inch color LCD viewscreen you will be able to easily see what you are shooting or playing back. The camcorder's digital image stabilization removes those unwanted jitters caused by an unsteady hand from your videos.

The CC9360's optical 10x zoom can be enhanced digitally to up to 400 times, making sure you can catch almost any moment on tape. Being in a low-light environment is no problem either, in addition to the integrated autolight there is also a special night shooting function that enhances low-light sensitivity so you can still capture clear images at night in full color.

You can also connect the camcorder to a computer via the standard IEEE 1394 DV interface, making transferring DV recordings or digital photos to a computer fast and simple. Also included are an AC power adapter, rechargeable lithium-ion battery, shoulder strap, A/V cable, and lens cap.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not your fathers video camera...., February 7, 2002

By	K. Wilson "MySanDiegoVideo.com" (SAN DIEGO, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This little wonder shines like 100,000 new pennies. (that's a thousand dollars for the mathematically challenged). Besides being a true 'palmcorder' this lightweight phenom delivers all the digital bells & whistles of equipment 3 times it's 399.00 street price.

The 400X digital zoom may seem a little eccentric, but getting on the line of scrimmage when you're in the nosebleed section is now a possibility. Miss the play? Get down and dirty with the offensive line and relive the action up close and personal. The digital image stabilization is a technilogical feat of magic.

The firewire hookup is truly the most outstanding feature. Using the CC9360 and Sony's EZ Editor is truly 'plug & play' digital video editing. Controlling the camera right from the PC is an amazing feature. Grab your scenes, lay down some music, put it all back together and voila! you're a movie producer.

For the advanced user i.e. Adobe Premiere etc., you will be happy to know that this camera is fully supported and performs flawlessly. Creating a professional, studio quality finished product is fun and easy with the RCA CC9360.

My current project is making a MTV 'pop-up video' style music video from karaoke night!

This fun and affordable DV Camcorder gets a whopping 5 star endorsement out of 5 possible. Good job RCA!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Impressed!, February 20, 2002

By	Taylor (Salt Lake City, UT United States) - See all my reviews

This is my first video camera. I guess I don't have anything to compare it to, but so far I am quite impressed. I'll make this review simple by making a pros/cons list:

PROS:

- Very small, easily fits in one hand
- Price! It cost about as much as a decent 8mm camera
- Solidly built
- Controls are easy to use
- On screen menus actually make sense, unlike most electronics.
- Good quality Zoom
- Tons of nice editing features and transitions/fades
- Built in light for indoor filming

- High quality 680,000 pixel sensor, most other low price cameras have about 450,000 pixel sensors.
- Comparable in features to many cameras that cost twice as much

CONS:

- No Auxilary Video/Audio inputs. Not a big deal for the majority of home filmers.
- Tape loading is kinda weird in my opinion.
- Shoulder strap is situated in a strange place. It makes the camera hang uncomfortably.

All in all, the negative things are few compared to the postives, especially at this price! Why would you even consider an analog when you can get this digital camcorder for about the same price.

2.0 out of 5 stars Insert Head Cleaner message all the time, May 28, 2002

By A Customer

First 2 tapes came out fine, from there on I constantly receive the "Insert Head Cleaner" message no matter what I do to clean the heads! Turning the camera off and on again will clear the error message but now only 50% of footage is viewable. Wish I was within 90 day warranty period still!
