RCA's CC9373 makes it easy to capture precious family moments. The camcorder features a 10x optical (400x digital) zoom lens and includes image stabilization for steady shooting. Footage is captured by a 680,000 pixel CCD sensor and recorded at 520 lines of resolution--the MiniDV standard. The camera comes with a 3-inch LCD for framing your shots, or, for a more traditional shooting posture and longer battery life, you can choose to use the electronic viewfinder (EVF). The camcorder also doubles as a digital still camera, letting you capture snapshots and store them on the included 16 MB MultiMediaCard.

In addition to the usual connections for hooking your camcorder up to your television, the CC9373 comes with both USB and IEEE 1394 ports. The IEEE 1394 (FireWire) port is used to transfer video to a computer for editing, while the USB connection facilitates the transfer of still images. Most Macs now include an IEEE 1394 port, but if you're a PC user, you'll probably need to add an IEEE 1394 port to your computer.

The camera also features a built-in spotlight for improved color in low-light situations. The package includes a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, plus a USB cable and software for manipulating still photos. The unit is compatible with RCA universal remotes.
