Only me Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 My 11 year old son wants a small video camera for Christmas and this looks interesting. I don't know very much about it but it looks like it would be something he would really like. I would appreciate any feedback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangermom Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 We have really liked ours. It's very convenient and easy to use, and my kids do use it to make silly little movies. In fact that's what they've spent the last hour doing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarfoot Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 DS 14 and DD 11 both have one and they love them! They have a lot of fun with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Only me Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 Since you can only film for 60 minutes do you just copy everything on the computer and then start again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa in St Louis Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 My hubby has one and loves it! Heck, I even borrowed it once and uploaded and emailed the video to the Grandmas. Easy! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle T Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 We have the HD one, I think it holds up to two hours of film. DS loves making dumb videos with it, both on his own and with friends. It provides them with tons of entertainment. It also comes with editing software, so the resulting films can be doctored up and edited. Well worth the $199, IMHO. Incredibly easy to use, it is literally point-and-shoot. Michelle T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Only me Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 Did you buy your flip video camera at the flip website or somewhere else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicksMama-Zack's Mama Too Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Costco and SAMs Club are carrying or will be carrying them soon. Costco has a $30 off coupon in their latest coupon booklet for a Flip, but I'm not sure what model or what the cost is.... I order a Flip Ultra HD from Walmart.com with two accessories for $169 as my movie makers want HD. I think it's an online special. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=13072669 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Only me Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 ok, now I'm confused. What is the difference between the different flip video cameras? I'm assuming that HD is high definition but what is the difference between the ultra and the mino? I was really hoping to spend $150 or less. Would the cheaper one still work well or should I stick with the HD. I wonder if they will go on sale for cyber Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
