lebanonmommy says "Use it more than I thought I would!" about FLIP Video Camcorder by Pure Digital Technologies

I bought this item thinking "I'll use it all the time." I've thought this before about other products and then they end up deep in my closet somewhere. Surprisingly enough, I AM using my Flip Ultra a lot. It is light and portable so I keep it in my purse with me all the time just in case a cute moment comes up. The on-board software makes making movies and transferring them to DVD or online a breeze. There is no light on the camera, but so far I have not found that to be a problem. It only has 2x zoom, so shooting from across the room can be a bit difficult if you want close-up shots.

Flip Ultra's are available in 30 and 60 minute recording length versions. I opted for the 60 minute one and found it for $116 on Amazon.com. The camera case that comes with it worried me a bit in its ability to protect it from other hazards in my purse so I quickly purchased another one. The real difference between the Flip Ultra and the Flip Mino is the type of battery in it. I have used...

My husband gave me the challenge of choosing a sweet 16 birthday gift for his daughter. I myself was interested in purchasing a Flip Ultra video camera to carry in my purse to catch video of fun times with family. I loved the small, portable design and the trendy colors. I loved that it uses 2 double A batteries instead of a rechargable battery. I also appreciate the USB arm that flips out of the side for easy connection to my computer. I use a Mac and have no problems creating great quality video in Imovie. The picture quality is stunning, I have an old analog video camera and it does'nt even compare! I bought it for my step-daugher's birthday and she is so happy with it. I even bought one for myself!!! I love the underwater camera case- it is the perfect accesory for me since we love going to the beach. It stayed completely dry and no sand got on the camera. This is definitely something I recommend.

I bought the Flip for my 11 year old daughter for Christmas since she wanted a video camera. She loves the fact that she has her own, and I love the idea that I can keep it in my purse and we can have it with us always. it is rare to find one that is compatible with IBM and Apple with ease in both places. No downsides to this!

Matt says "The Flip Video Camera is beautifully simple and easy to use" about FLIP Video Camcorder by Pure Digital Technologies

Based on the positive reviews in the press and on Viewpoints I bought a Flip Video Camera this weekend at Best Buy. I purchased the newer model that is smaller and rechargeable. The hall mark of the Flip is that it is incredibly easy to use. Within minutes of taking it out of the box I was creating shooting fun simple videos of my kids. It is so simple that my young kids two of whom are 9 and 7 figured it out instantly.

I plugged it into our iMac and my Dell Laptop and in both cases I was able to install the software and download the videos within minutes. The software allowed me to save the video in a variety of formats and combine clips in different ways. It also had the option of saving the video in a WMV file so that I could e-mail it to someone.

I used the included cords to plug the video directly into our television and it worked like a charm. Video and audio came through perfectly. The quality is just OK and the zoom range is limited. However, if you want a...

I recently purchased the Flip Video Mino. It's the newest in the line of Flip Video Camcorders. I have to say that I am totally impressed! This thing is so small, and easy to use, it's unreal! The video quality is great as well! I would highly recommend this to anyone who loves to capture digital video at the drop of a hat. I take more video than i ever did with this, just because it's so compact and easy to use. It has built in software to let you edit your videos, and add cool effects too. The price is really reasonable, too. I found mine-brand new for $148 on buy.com!
On a side note: This newer version (THE MINO) doesn't use double A batteries! It charges by USB port, which is REALLY handy!

Damaris81 says "Very Handy" about FLIP Video Camcorder by Pure Digital Technologies

Damaris81 — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 00:02:08 GMT

This camera was given to us as a Christmas present. It is very handy, easy to plug into your computer, and a good size. But, the quality is not that great, and I would like it if it had more options and a bigger view screen....

mkipf says "Sweet" about FLIP Video Camcorder by Pure Digital Technologies

mkipf — Wed, 28 May 2008 13:57:20 GMT

Great little simple camera. I've had it about a month and still on the original set of batteries (2 AAs). Easy to use, easy to view, and easy to transfer to the computer. Great price from Amazon. One button to record, one button to playback, and one button to delete. The USB port "flips" out the side, plugs into the computer, and the software installs automagically. It comes with a cord to connect directly to a TV, but I have not tried it yet. So far, everything else has been great, so I expect the same when I do get a chance to connect to a TV set....

Commanderzoom says "Small enough to carry anywhere!" about FLIP Video Camcorder by Pure Digital Technologies

Commanderzoom — Tue, 20 May 2008 12:58:49 GMT

The Flip Video is great because you can carry it anywhere. I've been carrying mine around my purse and capturing random video of my kids. I love it because of it's side, it's built-in memory, built-in USB adaptor, and that fact that it's idiot proof.

The only thing that I don't love is that you can't add more memory. My only record 30 minutes at a time.

This is the perfect little camera to tuck in your bag and keep with you - you'll never miss anything!! The sound and video quality are great for the price, and the ultra portability is awesome. Plus, it has a USB that pops out, and the video editing software is right there, so there's very little fuss involved. I'm very happy with my camera, and I've been using it for about 4 months....

The FLIP Ulta video is awesome! I bought a set to use in my library and for technology club . There are so many other uses. They are so easy to use , just point and shoot. Downloading to your compter top is so easy, I have kids doing it. I chose the black one, but they come in pink, green, orange.

The FLIP can be used with both MACs and PCS. This makes it unique.You can hook the camera to the TV , make movies on your computer, and share!!!!
