I'm giving this FLIP 4/5 stars. The picture and sound quality are top notch, high definition with a super clear picture and crisp clean sound with no feedback of any sort. I used it at a Lady Gaga concert, and with most cameras I expected a lot of harsh extra noise, but surprisingly I could clearly hear every last note, and word. It's completely easy to use - with a touch interface. forward backward record, zoom and play button. Pretty elementary stuff. I shortened the stars when it came to battery life - The unit says full battery and 2 hours of video space left, but then the battery doesn't make it through the full 2 hours. I'm not sure if it's a flaw within my own camera, or if it's a Flip thing, but it definitely stinks when you need it to last. Overall it was worth $45. Aside from the Battery Life, and crappy zoom, it's a good little camera for what it is, and it's super easy to use and upload. Only other downfall is, you need to make sure you have the corresponding operating system on your pc/laptop. Cisco no long fixes, or does anything with FLIP which renders the item completely useless if it breaks, or won't upload to your system. do extra homework before purchasing!Read full review
I just purcahsed this Flip to take on an elk hunting trip and it work great. High def video looked great, the zoom is not to powerful but for anything within about 70yards you can see clear. The detail of the video is a little worse the farther you are away from what you are taping. I would give it a 8 out of 10 almost a 9 out of 10. The software downloads to your pc and laptop without any trouble and editing the clips is very easy to do. I played around with it for maybe a half hour and I figured out all I needed to know to save my video's and create movies. Worth the money. Would work great for graduation parties, reunions and school plays.
The camcorder itself gives out very good quality at it's price range. Recording at 720p at 30 frames per second, things look pretty good. Well, until you get into low light situations (Indoors, dark outside, etc.) The picture quality starts to degrade at that point, but not horribly (Well, unless its REALLY dark out). You get some "noise" at that point, the picture starts to become fuzzy and it's just not that pretty to look at. Another thing that you might want to be aware of is that it has no image stabilization. So if you have shaky hands (like me!) the video can be quite...well, shaky! Luckily, if you have a video editing program that has an image stabilization effect you can apply to your videos, it won't really be a problem. Otherwise, it would probably be a good idea to buy a small tripod for it! The software that comes INSIDE the camcorder (no CDs here!) is a very basic video editing software. It allows you to view, trim, snap a photo, email, create a DVD and upload your videos to the internet in a few clicks. It might be nice for people who want to quickly edit and upload their videos to youtube. The 2nd generation Mino HDs also have a mini-HDMI to HDMI port on the bottom. Unfortunately, it doesn't come with this cord, so you'll have to buy one on your own time. There are no cords that come with them either, you simply connect it from a USB connector from the top of the camcorder. It pops out like a switch-blade, I think it's pretty neat :) The controls on the back of the camera are touch sensitive and seem to be very responsive. Also, I'm not sure if this option comes with other Flip video cameras but you can choose to turn the recording light off on the 2nd Generation Mino HDs. I've heard some people complain about the light, so I thought I should throw that in there. All in all, I'd say the camera is pretty darn good. You may not get Hollywood type movies but it'll be pretty close!Read full review
this camera is awesome it's very simple to use it records very acceptable hd video battery lasts long and it's size is perfect i always forget thats in my pocket. The only thing i wish were better is image stabilization... also the software that comes with it works really good it's very useful and easy to use too.
This camera is very easy to use and the picture quality is pretty decent. There is only a 2X optical zoom so you can't really shoot something far away. This is really made for filming home movies of kids or video taping your bowling swing (which is what I bought it for). Taking the videos off the camera was a little bit confusing. First the USB connection wires that came in the package didn't recognize the device, so it just kept trying and trying to install the device drivers. Once the camera was plugged in directly to the computer the device was installed correctly. I still haven't figured out the FlipShare software that gets installed. It doesn't seem to function like a digital camera where you plug in the camera and it downloads the videos onto your computer.
