IMHO, the ViviCam 8690 is the better camera. It has 8.1 Megapixels (5.1 on the 5018), larger preview screen. The 5.1 has 8x digital zoom and the 8690 only has 4x. Everything else pretty much compares.

Does the vivitar 5018 charge via usb

No. The Vivicam 5018 uses standard AA batteries. You may use either disposable or rechargeable batteries, but if you use rechargeables then you must charge them using a separate charger.

Manual for vivitar 8690

Hi,
Please go here and follow the prompts. Have the camera with you - because they ask for the serial number and some other questions before they give you the information you want.
It is the VIVITAR website.
