Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Flip Video Camcorder: 60-Minutes (White)Customer Review: Great pocket sized video camera! Summary: 5 Stars
This is an awesome little camera for capturing those "oh I wish I had a video camera!" moments. Not for recording once-in-a-lifetime occasions like a wedding or anything, but for everyday use you can't beat it.
Cons: Not great in low light or indoors under regular room lighting; Audio quality not the best; Memory capacity not expandable; No video light; USB arm can be a bit difficult to fit just right in PC.
Pros: Super small, one-handed size - fits in pocket or purse; Buttons so easy a child can operate it with no problem; Software is on camera - no loading a cd - just plug the camera in to your computer - it loads the software automatically and checks for web updates; Easy viewing of videos on camera and easy deletion; Plug the camera into your computer when you have videos on it, and it automatically loads them to the software; Easy to view videos within software, save them to hard drive, email, edit, delete, or upload to a website; Ability to save still snapshots within a video - great for those action shots; With software you can create special themed "movie mixes" automatically, like "playdate" - it adds cute music and cartoon characters running across the screen, or "vintage" - adds old timey music and makes the video sepia colored with the little crackly black spots like you see on old movies, as well as several other themes to choose from - really cool; You can choose to add your own music to a video; Ability to email themed "cards" that look like picture frames with your video playing in the frame; Ability to go to certain stores like CVS Pharmacy, plug your Flip into a special machine, and directly create a DVD of your videos; Comes with a cord to plug directly into a TV to view your videos on TV.
As you can see, for my part anyway, the pros well outweigh the cons. I've always left my video camera at home when going on vacation because I didn't want to lug around a separate camera case, even with my small mini-dv camera. However, the Flip will definitely be accompanying me on every trip from this point on! And who needs more than an hour of video anyway - just get the good stuff! :-)
