[CampKillYourself5432]

Sweet

[BlueSoda79]

Wow this sucks..

[Aaarrrggghhification]

Does the flip camera come with ANY wires what so ever? Somebody please answer!!

[shanselman]

@SnowboarderBoy15 yes

[mlbatera]

You should have uploaded this video in Youtube HD mode... so that we could see the quality of the video...

[shanselman]

@mlbatera When this video was added, 3 years ago, YouTube HD didn't exist.

[moniii9]

WOW 

[JJsmith761]

FAIL!!!! FAIL FAIL

[Paperhouse81]

Whats wrong with your face? LOL! It looks like you got hit with the ugly stick a thousand times!

[Nitro7676]

the sound is garbage

[TheHolyShitake]

Why are you reviewing a HD product and finalizing your video in 360p? Lmfao.. My webcam could do better video from the late 90's.. 

[shanselman]

@TheHolyShitake YouTube HD didn't exist when this video was made.

[1wetstick]

if its white its cause your gai 

[fjbutch]

Great camera, but unfortunately, I have to use a converter programme in order to use Windows DVD Maker...pain in the ass. Flip Mino was ok.....why did they change it Geeeez.....!

[MuffinPetal777]

haha pause at 00:04 HAHAHAH I LOLED

[follayart]

if you wanted to make a music video with it, could you?

[shanselman]

@follayart sure

[bakerboiz22]

can it takes pics. (the current version)

[shanselman]

@bakerboiz22 no

[Airsoftsniperfly2]

hey its almost christmas an i need to know is it realy worth it ima get the 150 dollar onee like i wanna make videos of me skating and maby airsoft/paintball wars with my freinds do you think it would be good? is it good sound and is it kinda hard to control and figure out?

[fjbutch]

@Airsoftsniperfly2 Get one mate,,,,I have made stacks of movies etc  and DVDs as well,.. using Windows DVD maker etc....Best to have a tripod attached so it fits in your hand with a bit of stability as it is a little sensitive....but their awesome......!

[mullizei]

is this 640x480 ? whit 4gb ?

[pokefan897]

would it be good for making videos on youtube

[ApPleDreAmAc]

@pokefan897 It's Very good for that use. Shane dawson and Ijustine own one.

[mariokartrokz]

can you record videos while it is charging?

[shanselman]

@mariokartrokz no

[JigsawDaMan]

can you watch the videos separately on the flip ?

[brettcravener]

@JigsawDaMan yes.

[shanselman]

@JigsawDaMan yes

[Rsaucido]

Is this good sounding. like would it be good for recording a video of electric guitar playing?

[shanselman]

@Rsaucido definitely not good for guitar playing. The mic is very low quality.

[mariokartrokz]

@Rsaucido i hope so thats what i plan to do when i get one IF i get one.

[97warlock]

what happens if yor batteries run low & you need to change them.......will u Lose your video thats on it? or will it somehow be saved when u finish putting new batteries in?

[shanselman]

@97warlock The videos are stored in flash. If you change the batteries, you'll need to stop the current video, but you won't lose anything.

[flipvideographer]

nice work of double mirror :3

[shanselman]

@flipvideographer Thanks!

[HALFNHALFSKITZ]

is the flip only used for blogging or can it be used for skits too

[shanselman]

@HALFNHALFSKITZ This would be great for skits.

[BerserkerLemon]

@HALFNHALFSKITZ i got one and im gonna get some friends together while we make a video

[saranghaeyo2326]

BIG ASS MIRROR FTW :D

[mobilewired]

This review sucks.

[ShamefulDisplay]

Wow, thanks for this. I know I'm a little late but this is a great review. Showed the lighting situations and everything. I want this now.

[Cheesetoon]

hey i was wondering if i should get the flip ultra, or the flip ultra hd. cuz i just watched an ultra hd review, and the guy said that there is some weird design on the bottom that doesnt allow it to stand up. so can someone plz tell me?

[gregrocks66]

stop recording me, lol, jk

[XxxTwiinkiiexxX]

i have the same thing i got it today as a present

[J5RoBo]

Your the dummiest white guy Ive ever seen

[NachoTheMacho]

waste of my time

[zonebellond123]

LOL

[neogeonsv]

thanks for the review but the best part is when your trying to show the red button, LMAO....!!!! pasmado !!!

[ggeek101]

when you record and stop and record again do you end up making a new video or does it add to the same video you recored preously? for if i want to muplod it o youtube but as to videos before i put the file on the computer to say a went for vacation

[AGforAG]

@ggeek101 Once you stop recording it makes different movies. Every time you begin recording and stop recording there are different clips but you can combine them using an editing software, but if you dont have one you can use the (crappy) FlipShare editing.

[shanselman]

@ggeek101 it makes a new video each time you start.

[atotalmess]

@ggeek101 Although it does make a new video each time, the software pre-installed on the flip device will allow you to go back and edit your videos, so you could cut out any long, boring spaces in your videos. (No longer needing to "pause" while recording.)

[ggeek101]

for the 60 min model is it just for one video or is it total storage on the camara?

[Addie52]

total storage

[shanselman]

@ggeek101 it's total storage. You can have dozens of videos.

[martygangsta625]

what is better this one or the hd one? cuz i heard the hd is very shakey

[kazful91]

How much are those? Please and thanks

[69whitt69]

@kazful91 about $149

[NOIRIST]

Thanks for filming with the actual camera. I think I'm gonna get it in yellow. ^_^

[strickmans]

wat qulaity good

[atktennisplayer]

is there a place for a tripod mount??

[shanselman]

yes, there's a standard mount point.

[NOIRIST]

Yes, and you can buy one for about £12 on amazon :)

[RPKGameVids]

Do you have any problems with low audio when playing back the videos on your computer?

I do on mine and I have to find ways of increasing the volume with video editing, not sure if all Flip Ultra's are like this or whether mine has a problem.

[astoniz]

wait its have a zoom ??

[hamicks]

ya you have to press up on th silver button

[astoniz]

i want to know its have a Camera Picture ??

[hamicks]

no it doesnt

[astoniz]

ok thanks :-)

[hamicks]

your welcome

[shanselman]

It's a digital zoom.

[skillz139]

theres only 1 setting and the setting is awsome lol i like that

[joshjimjoe]

it seems that you can't get an impartial review by anyone because everyone that is reviewing it has bought it for their own personal use and no one likes to admit they made a bad purchase. Why doesn't anyone speak about the bad audio quality or the lack of mic input and sd chip input. Why is there nothing said about the horrid or next to nothing customer support.

All the reviews only speak about why they thought their investment was good. They should not call it a REVIEW.

[slammarbyhammer]

because its not a professonal video recorder, its a handy easy interface for making short vid or blogs, hell even vacations for youtube, its not suposed to be super advanced you douch bag its for fun

[bribri0786]

big ass mirror...lol

[FeLLoNeY]

@bribri0786 But HE HAS A BIG ASS HOUSE TOO !!!! Look at video with the kids !!

[buggylover520]

@bribri0786 Actually,not lol,BAD language

[jaselynnlove]

:O!! were do u get thattt~! i need that vediooooooooooooooooooooo cam!! :O

[kevinisonfirehelp]

Hey Can you edit the videos from that with windows movie maker msg me back ty .

[InderpendantTV]

This camera records in .MP4 format, so it is not compatible with WMM, but you can easily find other Windows PC based editing software that supports .MP4 , or you can convert to .AVI / .WMV etc for WMM.

[White530]

@InderpendantTV

WMM definately allows the usage of mp4. i just tested it out.

[MrItellYou]

yes it is, i have one and all u do is when u put it in go to the driver that it is in, press ir, then clic kthe name, then click 100cannon or whatever urs is called, then you can put that in a different folder then put it in the wmm

[MrItellYou]

yup

[MrPyroEnthusiast]

Can you plug into a TV with AV cables to record gameplay?

[chiknturky]

theres only one setting and it is awesome, lol

[REALSWAGGA]

DOESS iT HAVE ZOOM

[Smiley10112]

[xxCrazyKid]

[MetallicaFan1997]

[Sionific]

[mathiasaa1]

It has zoom but it sucks!

[zantairio]

it has 2x zoom , but its very bad it just incresses the pixel sizes.

[123456789114]

yes it does

[qqqssseeefff]

is there anyway on the flipshare editing thing to cut out pieces in the middle of the videos

[XmetalmikeX]

how many mega pixels is it?>

[shanselman]

It records in "DVD quality" which is 640x480 at a 4:3 ratio.

[XmetalmikeX]

Huh?

How many megapixels..?

Like 6 MP? 8?

[animalCOP76]

[didandeh]

[smeek458]

[jacobjac001]

[SaintYishai]

This video made me laugh. The whole messing with the mirror. And "This camera has no settings. It has only one setting, and that setting is 'awesome'."

[artard1456]

[adidas22205]

Why would you want to do that?

[artard1456]

[adidas22205]

Do you want to use the camera as a media player?

[72rammer72]

[Norcalp8ntballar]

[halla1993]

download the update from windows, it adds quality to the camera's settings, the update you want is "flip 3.7" trust me, you will want to make out with your flip after you see the difference in vids and audio!

[heil114]

[xsimonerx]

yup

[fattyskate]

[6Bony9]
