The shoot and share camcorder

Flip Video is a mini camcorder for digital video made by Pure Digital Technologies. The version I have got is the flip video mino.

I received this brilliant little digital camcorder as a gift . It looks like a simple mp3 player or mobile phone but is actually a great video recorder.

It is very simple to use and the quality of the picture output is not bad at all (The standard definition Flip camcorders captures video in 640x480 resolution at 30 frames per second). All you have to do is press the red record button to record and then press it again to stop recording. This one touch recording element makes it easily accesible to even the least technical of people. You can zoom in and out as well.

Once you have recorded you can instantly playback and see on screen what you have recorded or connect to Usb and view using the built in software on a pc or laptop. The videos can then be saved, organised and edited. There are also cables to allow you to watch the videos instantly on a television screen.

You can also snap still photos from the videos as well as make customised movies. The videos can be emailed and published online with the abilty to directly upload the videos to both myspace and youtube.

This particular version has a memory size of 2gb and for this you can shoot 60 minutes of video which is enough even for a documentary!

Summary: great little digital camcorder!
