Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Flip Video Mino Series Camcorder, 60 Minutes (Black)
Customer Review: Great little product
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great little camera. Obviously some features are somewhat limited, like to zoom and telephoto lens, but what do you expect for the price. Highly recommended.Customer Review: Tiny and good quality
Summary: 5 Stars
I was not sure this small camera would cut it. It's so simpl my 6 year old son could work it without directions.
The video quality is very good. Not as good as a $800-$1000 camcorder, but this think goes in your pocket. I think I will use this more than my "normal" camcorder. Software loads FROM the Camera. Simple
Get one you will love this.
5 Stars for sure.

Customer Review: cool and simple device
Summary: 4 Stars
Very easy to use and fun. Would be nice if you could hook it up to your computer (via USB cord) to be a web cam. Otherwise, cool video device.Customer Review: Flip Mino Series Camcorder
Summary: 5 Stars
This camera is very easy to use and so compact. I bought this for my husbands birthday. He is a hunter, not a shutterbug...until now. He takes his Flip everywhere he goes. It does very well in low light situations. First video was at night of a skunk crossing the road and approaching the truck. It was a short clip but it was very clear. My only concern is the rechargeable battery. If it goes bad it must be changed by professionals. We shall see how well this design feature works. Everyone should have at least one! Customer Review: Little Marvel!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my second Flip. The first Mino stopped working after 2 days. It just suddenly wouldn't power up. Amazon was great with the exchange.
I've had this second Mino for 3 weeks and have used it indoors and out including a 4 yr old birthday party and various outdoor activities including farm visit, amusement park, etc. I've shoot interior scenes pointing to bright sunlight, fast motion and have been impressed with the overall quality of the videos. Transitions between dark and light was quick and good. Video playback on a 37" HD screen was quite acceptable. The camera will not provide super high quality images but for everyday personal use, it's great.
Some reviews have complained about sound pick up. I think considering the price and size, sound is fine. Both outdoors and indoors, I've been able to hear most everything. Unlike another reviewer, when I turned up the volume during playback or directly on the laptop/tv, sound was plenty loud.
File transfer has been easy and seamless on 3 laptops and 2 desktops. I've also had no problem using the Youtube feature. Have only used the editing features slightly but so far it's good and easy! That's really a major feature... everything about the Flip is easy... you can figure out how to do anything without downtime. It's so easy that I would highly recommend it for any technophobes.
