  • Awesome

  • 41 (pounds) on ebay! ^^

  • 79.00 at target :D

  • Will the ultra burn to disc

  • This is the worst camera I have ever encountered, I bought it a year ago, and I barely decided to use it today, I try to turn it on and nothing happens, I contacted their support and they will do nothing about it since it's out of warranty, it's ridiculous how I have never used this product and it does not work.

  • I need some true feedback! Some people commenting are saying it sucks and others are saying it's good...I need to know what is true because Im deciding whether or not I should get this or the 3DS with my birthday money.

  • @SlyCoopersGuitar neither... get some drum mics and send em to me

  • My iPod Touch 4G gets better quality than this.

  • I want one to upload to youtube. Now with this can i still put a description in my video later?? And put a title on it later from my computer?? And where can i get it for the cheapest price. Which flip video do you reccomend. Ill never be recording 2 hour long vids.

  • the screen are too small ):

  • Its MIN O not Mi No

  • I hate the flip for so many reasons.

  • Flip Mino HD 8GB/2HR Camcorder AND Tripod (Half price with offer) comes to £157.48 from Argos UK Offer ends July 29th...

    £149.99 In Argos (cheapest in UK from retail)

  • I dunno why these are so popular. Cause they're small?

    Seems like the video is worse than my older cellphones (720p and I could still upload straight from the phone. You can definitely get a way better digicam or camcorder for the same price or less.

  • @Holyman007 exactly.

  • Dude you just explained the unexplainable of this video!

  • I´ve won that at pepsi.com :)

    Can i listen to mp3 with that? xD?

  • how much

  • canon sd940

    good video editing, 720p video, 12.1 mp, better sound, i have both, and removable mem.

    and is a usb cable so hard to find?

    and here's the kicker, the sd940 is HALF the price

  • hate to break it too you guys but i have purchased this camera and it really sucks the touch screen does not work very well software on the computer is horrid and its really zoomed it already i cant get everything in the frame without backing up like 50ft so i advise you to purchase something worht your money because this so not worth it

  • @originallycara I feel bad that you got fooled into buying such a bad camera...hope you can get a better one ;)

  • dongle???

  • my digital camera gets HD, 14 MP pictures, OPTICAL zoom, good sound, the battery recharges more than 600 times, there's a replacable memory card, it's the same size, and it's a hell of a lot cheaper!!

  • @4evaFanFuruba dosn't shay use the ULTRA flip HD ?

  • @4evaFanFuruba

    Good information

  • iPod nano is WAY SMALLER!! AND IT COMES WITH 16 EFFECTS!!!!!!!!!!

  • How is the battery charged?

  • can you combine all the clips in the camera into one whole video?

  • nice quality but...not hd...

  • can you pause it?

  • Can this record TV screens good?

  • @ASneezyJewJew The Enova camcorder records tv screens good & it;s cheaper than this & probably just as good quality, if not better! Check out my video off a tv screen that i shot with the Enova, it's titled Basshunter Live p[erormance on BBLB!

  • Hey i got my Flip HD today and when i uploaded a video its not hd how do i make it hd?

  • Cool, but what is the fps

  • @Wawaweewaj Frame Per Second or gaming first person shooter

  • @lildrida wow thats a dumb question the flip is only a camcorder obviously frames per second!?!?!?

  • can u pause with this ???????

  • ok i got the flip video camcorder and it has hd right. well anyways i droped it down my staircase and it now wont turn on. i switched batteries and charged it, but it wont turn on still. mesage me if you might know the problem

  • @mrbigbacondude I think i know the problem. It could be broken because you dropped it like ten feet down. Probably the wires are loose or the attachments are loose. Next time, don't throw it from the stairs.

  • so if it is 2 hours of video what happens when its filled? can u erase videos making more space? or are you totaly done? also, when u upload a video in 2 lets say youtube and then erase the video from your flip does that make more space?

  • hehe he said dongle haha

  • i use a flip video for my comedy series

    :D

  • IS the sound high quality? Would this be useful if I wanted to make decent guitar/singing videos for youtube?

  • @GuillermoSmyser

    'Yes it is.

  • cool but does it take pics?

  • Comment removed

  • can you take photos with it too?

  • i have the first one, all my vids are filmed on it, it is not in HD but great quality

  • How much does it cost

  • Anyone know how to get songs from itunes into the movies your making this is ridiculos how long its taking me

  • @PublicAwkwardness

    well i just get the music file in a folder and drag the music file into the audio and there but thats just how i do ig =)

  • does it let you pause the video and record where you left off

  • this camcorder is so coooooooolllllllllllllllllllll­llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­llllllllllllll!

  • 3 questions. 1, can u delete videos when u want to? 2, can it take pics and vids? 3, can u buy colored skin type things to put on it? sorry for somany questions,it's just that i'm thinking about buying one.

  • @CommuterColin0906 yes you can delte vids, it only takes vids, yes you can, from their website.

  • can you edit videos in movie maker when you put files onto the computer or no?

  • @rokkakubeatJet No you can not edit in W.M.M. U will have to convert from MP4 to edit .

  • @rokkakubeatJet  it depends if the type of the video is supported by the editor you will use...

  • I just got this camera

    Its great at recording sound in video's

    Its very good picture

    but uploading video's from the camera to youtube is slightly harder than i thought. One 2 min video would take 3 days to upload :(

  • @YepImTheBest that has to do with your internet connection more than it has to do with the camera

  • @YepImTheBest This obviously, depends on your computer. And your internet.

  • @YepImTheBest maybe its your comp or internet connection

  • does it take photos?

  • Do you guys think this will work good for recording my metal band? does it have good audio recording?

  • I got it and I love it!

  • Dude, this is better than a real camera!

  • haha...

    You are joking!!!??? xD

  • No, I have a sony camcorder I compared the quality with each other flip and sony cam and the flip was better!

  • have you changed settings in sony camcoder?

  • Yes, I have both cameras on 720p with the lighing similar I have just been playing around with them both, but the Flip Ultra HD is the best one :) You should also try a Kodak Z18 they are also very good :)

  • Ok maybe in video (for youtube...)

    But in sound sony are better.

  • @Nintendo2D

    yes it is better than a real camcorder!

  • @Nintendo2D how it is better then a real camera and my $500 is better then that

  • @Nintendo2D is it really. i wanna get a camera but i want one with a big lens.. is the big lens a big deal or not?

  • @FrogDaBarber without the lense, you can't see anything, so, I think that means the lense is a big deal...and the lense is shit on the flip

  • @Nintendo2D please explain to me how...

  • How times have changed! I'm 21 years old - when I was a baby my parents would take home movies of me with a camcorder large enough to hold an entire VHS tape (forget VHS-C!) Then my parents would mail the tape down to my grandparents in Florida for them to see.

  • Help! I want to record and then put it on a DVD and project it on the wall 7' by '' with music. Last time a created a video on a PC it kept stopping when in the 'regular' DVD player. I was told it needed to be 'finished.' Can I do this? How

  • aznpandafood I want to reply to your reply to my post. They were great and sent a new one back. They do have great customer service. I did sell it though. I think the internal mic is great and the picture quality is super, but I got the Kodak Zi8 mainly because I can add a mic to it. Not super hi end but I really like that option. I love the flip too. I actual would like to have one of each, Kodak Zi8 and a flip mino hd Great mic! The zi8 just has a few more options.

  • thnkyou so much :)

  • The Flip Mino model has a built-in rechargable battery that charges while it is connected to your computer.

  • i got one for Christmas i was sooooooo happpy!!!;)

  • @brithdaygirl1 I got one too, I've never heard of them before.

  • Although I do not have the same modal, I have had the Flip Ultra 1st generation for about 1 year and 8 months. I use this thing near every day and am still loving it. Very reliable and great for recording of any kind!

  • im getting one for my bday to do youtube videos

  • Im going to buy one. Should I get a mino or an ultra?

  • It depends. First I would like to say that hands down, the quality is way up there and for a very affordable price. Now it depends, if you just want a camcorder for random here and there videos, maybe get the Ultra. If you actually do something with your videos such as share them on YT or use videos to make movies, maybe invest in a Mino.

  • i have the same model and everything is the same exept mine dosent say mino hd it jusy says mino... what does that mean?

  • its not hd

  • yours doesnt have hd is what that means

  • There are two models made. One is a Flip Mino and a Flip Mino HD. One does not shoot HD quality while the other does shoot HD quality. Since yours does not say HD, your Mino does not shoot HD quality. But being a Flip Mino, it should be slightly improved in all aspects versus a Flip Ultra.

  • this thing is the stupidest ,gayest shit ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • let me guess, you have one of the crappy nock offs.... or the old one, right?

  • nah nigga,i dnt even want this shit

  • im white......

  • alright

  • this on is WAY better than the old one!

  • Whoo!!! Im getting it on Xmas!! cant wait. I want it soo bad.! if you wanna reacord like xbox games can you?

  • The only way I am aware of is to point the camcorder at the screen the Xbox is playing on and record. If you want literal recording of the screen, I believe there may be a video capture car you can buy (totally unrelated to the Flip).

  • can you edit with adobe premiere? and if so, how would you do it?

  • Like Albert said, once you stick the Mino into your computer, it opens it just like a memory stick. Just drag and drop the video from yoru Mino to your computer (I personally wouldn't want to leave the camcorder plugged in while editing) and edit the video like any other video.

  • wow

    i will buy this my dad says that it cant be that good , but i got a question,it can record a video just for 1 hour i meaan i get that the battery can be used more time but does it only have memory for an hour or can be longer?

  • Not to disrespect your father but I have been a proud user of a Dlip camcorder and I tell you, it is well worth your money. As to your question, to the best of my knowledge, the Flip Mino comes with a 60 min. internal memory to record, but the Flip Mino HD comes in a 60 min. and a 120 min. record time.

  • the mino has an internal battery.

  • those r so damn nice!

  • is there no mic ?!

  • Comment removed

  • All Flip products have a port where sound is recorded. Albert's test videos were not the best examples but all Flip products record sound and sound is picked up very well.

  • i ♥ Mineee :D

  • i got the flip f260, i think im going to buy this. i can tape myslef eating corn bread in HD ? im definitely buying one of these

  • why did they have to make the screen so damn small do i want to go blind

  • there's the mino II HD in 120minutes, which has a 2" diagonal display screen

  • dats definitively going on my Christmas list

  • this and the vado are the same but the vado comes with a bit more features which makes it better than this

  • which is better the ultra hd or the mino hd?

  • Both claim to record HD quality. Just keep in mind that the Mino model is a more recent model then the Ultra, and with all new things, there is a good chance there were some improvements. Besides that, the Flip Ultra will be slightly bigger (and weight slightly heavier) then the Mino while the Mino is smaller and lighter.

  • thats sorta retaded if it can make videos it should take pictures

  • While it does not actually have a camera feature, it has built in software where when its connected, you can isolate any part of a video you have taken and create an image from the selected time slot and save that image as a picture.

  • The video at the end did not have audio. I want to know what the audio sounds like.

  • Although I do not have a Flip Mino HD (I own the Flip Ultra 1st Gen), it picks up sound very well. It's just for some reason, Albert didn't include audio while editing his videos into this video.

  • Does it have good focus? Someone please reply as soon as possible. :D Thanks

  • I have not payed much focus to the focus but (owning only a Flip Ultra 1st Gen), there were never any remarkable problems with focus, or something enough for me to remmeber. So I believe that if my model has no problem, neither should this improved model. Just don't asume though that it has some sort of macro feature like a camera.

  • Can it take pictures??

  • nope its just a camcorder

  • Although this (or any other current Flip model) does not take pictures, there is a built-in software that when you plug in your Flip, there is a feature within the software that allows you to select any part in a video and save the shown image as a picture.

  • can u record with sound

  • yupp!

  • For some reason, Albert uploaded a mute video. All Flip products record sound, and they record it quite nicely.

  • Small question, I know you can trim videos but can I drag the videos I have into windows movie maker and then cut sections that are in the middle of a video?

  • Yes. When you plug in your Flip Mino into your computer, your computer reconizes your Flip Mino as a simple "memory stick" if you were to put it. All you do is simply place your videos from your Flip onto your computer (not required), and open up your WMM and select your video like any other.

  • i would recommend the ultra hd flip it has alot better Quality

  • i need that to become a yts

  • hey anyone....i need a really good camcorder for recording drumming...i need something with a good picture quality and sound quality...i need some suggestions...anyone?...i really need this help...thanks, really

  • uhh how about the flip ultra hd?

  • I highly reocmmend this Flip, or any Flip, product. Although I personally do not know, I think Flip started the portable camcorder craze. Although I own a Flip Ultra 1st Gen, I heavly use it to record videos as delicate as vlogs. My younger brother has also borrowed my Flip to record his drumming as well. It pickes up video and sound very nicely. This Flip Mino should be even better it being a newer model them mine.

  • is it compatibal to windows movie maker

  • Videos taken by Flip Mino should be compatable with WMM. Some videos taken by Flip Ultras in the past had a few complications with compatibility issues with WMM but Mino was made to hopefully get rid of that problem.

  • can you pause

  • I own a Flip Ultra 1st Gen so I can't speak for a Flip Mino but on mine, while viewing videos that I have recorded on my Flip, you can not pause, rewind, fast-forward things like that. Flip camcorders were built to be amazingly simple to use and as such, a feature like pausing on the camcorder has not been implimanted (well not yet anywats).

  • i just ordered th 2cn generation 2 day. it should be coming thanks giving wek or before if u want me to let u know if u should buy it message me.

  • I'm comparing this to the Sony Webbie HD Camcorder.

    The Sony Webbie HD has 5X OPTICAL Zoom...and 1080 quality.

    Can someone tell me which one would give me better quality videos?

  • The Sony Webbie HD Camcorder would by far give you the best HD video quality, this Flip Mino Camcorder is only 720P.

  • I'm now comparing the Sony Webbie HD Camcorder to Real Camcorders that have 70X Zoom and 60GB HD's...

    The price difference isn't that much more.
