Pocket Video Camera
The Flip Video is great for recording up to one hour worth of video. It is perfect for families who want to share videos. I found that the sound quality is ok. The zoom is adequate but not great. And the picture quality is good for its price. The better the lighting you have, the better the quality of the video taken. It even looks good when watched on a TV screen. No sense lugging around a camcorder when you can carry this small video camera. It is so easy to use that no instruction manual is n...

Buyer beware - puts their ad on videos and you cannot remove it!
There is nothing that makes me madder than to pay good money for something that proceeds to place an advertisement that cannot be removed at the end of a video! I thought this was a great little recorder until I uploaded my first video to Youtube - then found that an ad which is not visible when the video is viewed on my computer is created on Youtube at the end of the video . For shame, they had a good product, but what customer wants to be a walking advertisement for a product they paid for!!...

A handy, flexible camera
If you're still thinking about getting a video camera for home movies or amateur filmmaking, and are still confused about the various formats, and concerned about the cost, here's a simple solution. It's simple to use, rugged, and so cheap that it's almost (but not quite) disposable. It even loads its software for you on your home computer. Shoot some scenes, plug it in to the computer, and a few minutes later you're editing and overdubbing.
This little camera may not have the highe...

Good little camera
This little product is an amazing piece of technology. It does exactly what you want and with only a few problems.
Despite its tiny size and lens, it takes good quality video. Dim light isn't so good but normal indoor lighting and daylight shots are very good quality. The zoom is virtually nonexistent but thats not what its really for anyway. Just throw it in your pocket and carry it with you to the game or the party or wherever, whip it out, point and record movies.
I foun...

Tough and easy
I've had this camera about three months. While the picture quality isn't as good as my 3ccd camcorder the Flip suffices for TV displays. All the software for PC and Mac resides on the camera. The USB connector is part of the camera and flips (thus the name) out to plug into a computer port. It's so easy to use that's it's sort of the iPod of the camcorder business. My four year old grandson has taken some pretty good videos on it with minimal instruction. It fell twice off a four foot table to c...

No support Mac OS X Leopard
The camera itself is pretty nice, but for now there is no real support for Mac OS X Leopard. Here's the message I received when I inquired about why the Flip Video download program didn't work on my computer:
"The Flip Video camera does not support Mac OSX Leopard (OSX 10.5.x), so
we cannot guarantee that the Flip Video program will have full
functionality. However, you should still be able to access your videos
in order to play and save them.
We are working...

Great on-the-go camcorder!
My wife and I recently sold our previous camcorder, and had decided to get a smaller more portable unit, probably with an included hard drive to ease video transfers to and from the camera to our mac. I ran into the Flip Video Camcorder and it's just what we really needed. It's extremely small and portable and my wife never leaves the house without it. It's a bargain for the price, and the compact size allows it to be carried around with less care than an expensive device.
The quali...

I am CAMERA CHALLANGED but...
even I can operate this. I am the pack horse that carries all of the junk (cameras,batteries,tripod,lenses, etc)in addition to my own purse. I am usually so loaded down, it is impossible to set stuff down in a safe place long enough to get a camera out of the bag. All this said, I always felt like the PRESS with all of the cumbersome equipment and it was just a hassle taking pictures. NOT ANYMORE. . .
I have been liberated. I can now fit this light weight, small video camera in my purse ...

Flip Video, a must-have!
I purchased the Flip Video after reading about it in a local paper. It has been great fun taking video of life events we never would have captured if we had to carry our bigger camera. It is so small and light weight, it is easily carried in my purse. The video quality is remarkable, even in dimly-lit situations. The zoom takes some practice. Very good sound quality. I had no trouble downloading the clips to my Mac. The 60 minute version allows more video time away from a computer for down-lo...

Easy, fun, practical
OK how many people have video cameras that sit around, never get used becuase of batteries, tape, lugging it around etc, etc. Then IF they take videos they never watch them becuase it's too much trouble. Enter the flip. If you love your digital camera then you'll love this. I took my first video WITHOUT removing it from the package! That's how easy it is. It uses standard AA batteries and I've plugged it into 3 computers to play or download videos without any problems. All the software ...
