Features & Specs - RCA Small Wonder EZ3100
Weight (lbs.) This is measured in pounds and includes the recording media. Weight (lbs.)	0.2
Size While camcorders are generally getting smaller they do range in size. Overall camcorders are typically much more compact than those from years ago. Instead of recording to tape or DVD, camcorders nowadays use either a compact hard-disk drive or flash memory. The smallest models use flash memory. Models which are considered "compact" fit in a typical shirt or pants pocket. Size	Compact
Optical zoom Allows the camcorder to fill the frame with far-away objects at the touch of a button. An optical zoom rated at 5x means the camcorder can magnify the image up to 5 times the normal size. Optical zoom	No
LCD size (in.) This is the size of the image displayed on the LCD. Measured diagonally, it typically ranges from approximately 2 to 3 inches. With some models, the image does not fill the whole screen when recording. For these models, this number is smaller than the physical size of the screen. LCD size (in.)	2
Built-in light Provides illumination for close-ups when the image would otherwise be too dark, but it's no substitute for a well-lit room. Pocket camcorders which have this feature may be a simple On/Off function or an automatic setting for turning the light on. Built-in light	No
HDMI output Has High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) output for direct digital-audio and video connection -- via a single cable -- to digital TVs with HDMI input. Can output 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and for some models, 1080p video signals. Standard-definition video is referred to 480i; progressive-scan or "enhanced definition" is 480p; high-definition consists of the 720p and 1080i signals, where 1080i also may be referred to as "full HD". 1080p is a progressive-scan HD format, found on some HD camcorders and on all Blu-ray players. HDMI output	Yes
AV output This connection allows you to send video and audio to a VCR or TV's composite video input. AV output	No
Microphone input Jack for an external microphone to improve sound quality and prevent picking up noise from the camcorder. An alternative to using the built-in mike. Microphone input	No
Headphone out An output for connecting a pair of headphones to the camcorder. Headphone out	No
Digital still capable Some camcorders can take snapshots, much like a digital camera (though not necessarily of the same quality). The camcorder can then be plugged into a computer and the images downloaded from the memory. Using a removable memory card (such as MemoryStick, Compact Flash, or SD Card) you can transfer stills to a computer without having to connect the camcorder, but you need proper card-reader hardware. Digital still capable	No
3D effect 3D-capable camcorders are capable of recording and playing back while in 3D mode its video rendering a 3D experience. The 3D video may be played back on a 3D TV. 3D effect	No
