[flamingbassdude]

i like my old flip ultra a lot, it has amazing sound and quality that compares to the kodak zi6 even though its not HD. i have both cameras. an advantage to kodak zi6 which i love is that you can record while its plugged into the tv, so you can see yourself that way. :)

[MooseOfReason]

Well, if you're looking down at the camera's lens, there is a good chance your face won't be in the shot.

[ricjam1]

I have this camera and love it. I do agree with the inside regular lighting

[VelimirIlic]

OMFG - kids!!!

Instead to go to their restroom for a shit, they keep on bloggin !

[AzeriIsGod]

tell me about it. there are so many fucking kids making shit blogs>!

[sprucepanther]

dude i thought it was summer by the way you were dressed then boom! you turned the zi6 around and it was cold as hell

[Fivaldo]

what program do you use to edit

[watkinskevan]

ok the only reason i thought this was better than the ultra HD but it isnt at all it is still shaky as hell so ultra HD beats it easy

[soxfan647]

good camera, but the mic sucks. mono sound and way too sensitive. you can hear your hands on the camera. also same deal if its on a tripod.

[enxthegreat]

Sweet

[Lewmazing]

the scenry is beautiful,

it looks like that here in the winter i love it..

ps; thanks you helped me out alot

im gonna get this is september =]

[5pedorro7]

lol, blah blah blah.....

[ferref117]

wuoo all that movement kinda make me dizzy hehe

[denniski]

which one is better, this or the aiptek ahd z200?, they're both sold at exactly the same price here in oz at the moment (au$179) thinking of getting one for my kid

[Mydnytefantasy89]

I wanna live wherever you live. Nice and cold and icy! Probably bad for longboarding though

[HawaiiancamHD]

Do you use Adobe premiere CS 3 or final cut for your videos

[kennyJRT]

i think Zi6 is the best!

[Mydnytefantasy89]

Compared to most of the Flips that have a messed up pixel coding? Oh yeah

[thesmartpod]

Nice video.

You and your viewers may want to visit The Smart Pod channel to check out a versatile camera and video mount accessory that attaches anywhere and holds any camera position. It works well with all video cameras. Please check it out. Thanks.

[Ganbareg]

love my kodak, ive had the creative and sold it on as it shows to much yellow in frame kodak 60fps hd cant go wrong, when i watchs tuff back it's like digital film like in 28days cod4 even way cool.

[Ganbareg]

youtube hd plugin is poor, fix it please.

[SwordPengy8]

am i the only one noticing how it like skips frames

[KimDonesia]

That's just because you should let the whole video load first.

[jmwooldrid]

Dude. The Camera is doing great. The indore light is not the same color (temp) as sunlight. That is why it liiks different. if you have a white balance option use it....

[951tony]

shouldn't it have auto adjust?

[idlerzunited]

Hey guys... what's better?

Insignia® - 5.0MP High-Definition Digital Camcorder with 3" Swivel LCD Screen

Flip Mino HD

or this?

[joel222booyeah]

zi6 is the best because 720p, shoots good on the dark, and 60fps

what is bad about it is digital zoom degrades the quality so ya.

i have it and use it a lot with no problems

[Kyoslicer]

Good review. I wish it snowed like that here in Florida.

[GeorgeLock123]

how long is battery life?

[professionalblogger]

haven't used it enough to figure that out. but seems pretty good w/ rechargeable batteries. throw regular double a's in there though and you'll be lookin at 10 minutes tops lol

[davet247]

The battery usually lasts longer than a 4GB memory card will, don't know about the 34GB one though.

[Billy4269]

I think the insignia is a little better

[professionalblogger]

how much does it cost?

[Billy4269]

i think 99$ and the quality is much better

[professionalblogger]

interesting. thanks for the info

[Billy4269]

Type in Insignia Hd camera test durring day and click watch in hd thats the camera

[cococrispys]

What tripod do you use for this camera?

[professionalblogger]

some weak 10 dollar one from walmart lol

[cococrispys]

in your opinion, does it work well, or is it awful?

[professionalblogger]

I like it. I think it's a great camera.

[hhhhhwhat]

pretty impressive outdoor shots... really captured the "Artic Blast" 2008 of Oregon lol.

[professionalblogger]

lol no doubt huh? lol

[mattieeboy123]

i think indoor doesn't actually look too bad xD

[professionalblogger]

:| lol

[ZacRidesScooters]

Would you recomend it?

[professionalblogger]

Definitely. For what it's worth it's a great camera. Don't expect to get super quality while filming indoors or when the camera is shaking / moving.

I mean, it is what it is. What you saw in this video is what you will get. For sure. :)

[ZacRidesScooters]

Thanks aloy do you think it will be good for fast moving action like down skateparks etc

[professionalblogger]

It may be a little blurry but I don't know

[ZacRidesScooters]

Okay thanks i just reserved it instore and am going to go pick in up soon xD SO EXCITED :D

[Alacoque3030]

i bet, its 60fps lol

[MooseOfReason]

I don't know. You only showed one small part of your room for about five seconds.

And his face looked yellow because he was right next to the bulb.

[professionalblogger]

I do know. Before this video I filmed a 10 minute video just in my room light. It sucked lol

[MooseOfReason]

Well, then upload a ten minute video and make it private, because that would be just as helpful as this one.

[professionalblogger]

Why not just take my word for it? I'm not going to go make a 10 minute video just because you don't believe me. Look it up on Youtube. Look at some of my other recent videos. Some aren't "yellow" but they do have reduced quality.

Next time if you want me to do something, simply ask. Don't just tell me to do it. Otherwise, I could really careless.

[shandor04]

this was a really helpful video thanks mate for filming both indoor and outdoor footage. I'm going to get one of these i think.

[professionalblogger]

No problem. It's a good camera. Just don't expect amazing quality. Again, it's good for what it's worth.

PS: Don't buy at Best Buy. They have a 15% restocking fee.

[Alacoque3030]

i bet it will be amazing for me, im used to a sony handycam, the one that used the little dvds

[baalpeteor]

One question. Do you think the mino would be alot better in recording in low light? I could use a camera to record in low lighting like in the club or at bars where some of the artist I dj for perform. I almost got this HD one that had a light on it but it was only 30 fps :(

[professionalblogger]

I really don't think any camera does well in low light. But I can't really say I am an expert... :(

[baalpeteor]

hmm.. yeah to get that kind I will probably need hollywood type cameras.. or a thousand dollar camcorder or so. Get one of those girls gone wild cameras they take in the club lol

[professionalblogger]

Lol. I think it's still proper that you get good lighting, but you're probably right. Those cameras they use on GGW would probably work quite well.

[Zomfsm]

hav u heard of the flip mino hd, i use tht! jw

[professionalblogger]

Yes. But I didn't get it because it only allows internal memory. :(

[baalpeteor]

Kodak owns the mino hd by far. The flip only can use its 4 gb internal... and to get vids off you would have to connect it to a pc anytime you want to get anything off it. and once its full you cant just switch cards and keep going. Also it has internal batteries so once its dead you have to go home and charge it instead of popping new batteries. Also the mino hd only records @ 30 fps, as the kodak can do 30 AND 60, along with vga. Kodak is also the leader in color Technlology.

[baalpeteor]

also the mino hd zoom sux compared to the kodak. I've seen them both zoom in and the mino was all blurry, as the kodak kept its good look.

[ZalfoW]

it isn't as bad indoors as you may think. The camera just doesn't like light reflected off of snow, it took me like a week to figure this out, lol

[professionalblogger]

Huh? Dude. I tried this camera in my room without snow and the quality sucked. You need good lighting if you're inside or you need natural lighting from outside.

[raydvd]

good review there m8

the living room quality is still good but there is a loss with lower light

But for the price of the camera quality is superb !

[professionalblogger]

Exactly. But like you said, for the price, it's still a good deal.

[Rob0wns]

good review, I think ill treat myself to this with my Christmas money.

[professionalblogger]

Thanks. Thanks for watching. Also, be sure to get proper lighting. Otherwise the camera sucks. lol

[woohoohockey]

do u live in portland?

[professionalblogger]

Salem. We just got pounded with another few inches of snow last night.

[woohoohockey]

we have 14 inches in west linn, just 25 minutes away from downtown portland

[professionalblogger]

Dang man. Yeah it's been a crazy winter.
