RCA announces EZ209HD, their slimmest Small Wonder camcorder ever

We are loving just how prevalent small HD cams are becoming, and the RCA EZ209HD looks to be an impressive unit when it comes to that category. This is the company’s slimmest and “sexiest” (their word, not mine) Small Wonder camcorder ever, and captures high definition video while sporting a 2-inch display. Even better, though, unlike some of the other handheld HD flash camcorders we’ve seen, the EZ209HD even has an HDMI port, so you can plug directly into a television to watch your home movies. The rechargeable battery lasts for two hours, which is also nice, and the camera even supports a 60fps Sports Mode for fast action. Once your recordings are done, you can easily upload them to YouTube and Box.net. You’ll be able to get your hands on an RCA EZ209HD by the end of this quarter, and it’ll sell for $119.99.

Full press release available after the break, which includes details on the EZ207 as well.

Options for YouTube, Box.net and E-mail Sharing Add Connectivity and Simplify Use

LAS VEGAS – January 7, 2009 – International CES, Booth 11006-10506, Audiovox

“Today’s camcorders need to deliver much more than just good pictures and video,” said Tom

The RCA Small Wonder camcorder’s ease of use starts with Memory Manager Software that
requires no CD-ROM because it’s embedded in the camcorder and launches automatically with
the first USB PC connection. In addition to the Small Wonder’s built-in picture button, users can
also capture an image from the recorded video using the Memory Manager software’s EZGrab™
feature frame-by-frame accuracy. Memory Manager also makes video editing easy, using the
“Trim & Join” feature that lets users become a video maker who can customize a clip’s start and
end points to keep only desirable segments. Users have total control to click and drag images
and arrange (or rearrange) video segment exactly as desired to create a custom movie. The
editing is achieved easily with software that guides the user from start to finish. After completing
the video production, the user can save it to PC for sharing on YouTube™, Box.net or via e-mail.

The company plans to bring three RCA Small Wonder Camcorders to market during the first
quarter of 2009, led by the HD models, EZ300HD and EZ209HD.
