Product Description
There's a budding moviemaker inside all of us. Let it out with an RCA VHS-C Camcorder. Capturing great video moments is easy with AutoShot, the built-in convenience feature that automatically focuses and adjusts to available light. Also features Scene Select AE (AutoExposure) Recording Dial with 9 Recording Modes: Sports, Frontlight, Haze, Shadow, Auto, Manual, Backlight, High-speed Shutter, and Sepia. And the VHS-C format assures full compatibility with your home VCR, while allowing a small, light, compact video system.The large, high-resolution 2.5" ColorView Screen provides for TV-like viewing while recording or during playback. The display screen rotates 270 degrees which allows for self-recording with the camcorder lens and display screen both facing you. Zoom beyond the conventional 16X optical system to digitally double the zoom range to 50X. The one-button power zoom operation produces smooth, professional looking transitions from wide-angle scenes to close-up shots. A variable speed zoom adds the flexibility of slow or fast zooming. Electronic Image Stabilization helps to minimize the unwanted jitters from your video by digitally stabilizing the picture, before recording it on the tape. Special recording modes allow you to select the right setting for your video recording desires. Choose from Sports, Shadow, Haze, Sepia, Hi-Speed, Negative/Positive, and Twilight. Don't let low light situations limit your recording. With light sensitivity of less than 1.0 Lux, the advanced image sensor can record viewable pictures in dimly lit conditions. Conveniently add one of eight quick titles stored in the camcorder memory to your recording. Choose among English, French, or Spanish versions of the following eight quick titles: Happy Birthday, Happy Holidays, Congratulations, Our Family, Someone Special, Vacation, Super Star, and First.

Top Quality... Hefty Price.......2003-01-21

I have a laptop with the TFT technology (as they all do) and i'll say that this monitor (the CRT type) is just as good. This seems a lot easier on your eyes because it seems more like a computer monitor then a TV type monitor. The TFT's seem so bright and pure that its like looking at a tv... (hence if you're too close it sort-of defeats the purpose).

I've used both types, and for the price i'd say that you should go for this technology. Also, I have the same type of monitor at home (but the Sony Trinitron Brand) and they are both identical in every way. Crispness is exactly the same.

The reason i'm only giving it 3 stars is because the price is quite hefty. I bought my Sony Trinitron for 520 almost 2 years ago. This compaq model is priced at about 500. You should expect Compaq's prices to be much lower (or Sony's to be much higher because of the name). I actually purchased a Compaq almost Identical in every way from this model (mine is the Compaq I910 Flat Screen 19" CRT Multimedia Monitor) and i paid only 219.00 for it online.

I would search far and wide to get the 200 dollar one instead of this one or instead of the Sony Trinitron. Like i said, i have both Sony, and Compaq models (one at work, and one at home) and they're performances are identical. But i paid 500 for sony, and 219 for compq.

Now remember that it says "Flat Screen" not "Flat Panel". The technologies are very different, although not 100% apparent, and the only technological difference (as seen by the human eye) is that one has a big box behind the screen, and the other is thin) Both are flat, and both are very good to look at. One just costs a lot more.

The CRT models are based still on tubes but different types of tubes. This type is far more advanced than the old types, and you'll notice a line about 2-1/2 inches from the top and bottom of the screen. This is normal. This is a wire going across the screen and is part of the technology. This is probably another slight difference that you won't see in the TFT.

If you can get the 219 dollar version (I910) go for it. Its a great buy. Same quality without the hefty price tag.
