#6 - Flip Cameras Are Kinda Lame

*Recorded on a demo model of the new "Flip" cameras.

They're really nothing special though - I wouldn't waste your money. Unless you're a retarded monkey and "uploading to YouTube" is a hard task for you to execute without giving you brain cramps.

@MyMusicandBeauty - You said it wasn't "a Flip camera".

Except, it *was* a Flip camera. So, there goes your entire argument.

@buddyroach - Wow... you got told so hard all you could muster was some pathetically lame insults and some swears. Are you even old enough to swear? Hahah... idiot.

My 8 year old phone takes better video

Does it carve the images onto rocks?

@Z3kedog I know its a flip camera. Was just trying to insult it by using the Toaster joke

[Z3kedog]

@GeoffShouldWin Thats definately a flip, i can tell by the shitty picture quality. i paid 200 dollars for it now i would never pay 20.

[GeoffShouldWin]

You sure that's a Flip and not a toaster you're filming with?

It's funny how people still think that the Flip is great...you could buy a Canon Powershot for much less and can shoot in 1080p...

@MetalGamingz - No, it can't zoom. At all. I covered all of this in my review. Most people don't want a zoom? Bullshit. Everyone does/could use such a feature - and regardless of whether or not someone uses it - doesn't mean the camera is better than those that *do* have that feature.

Fact: It is not a good camera.

@JPizzle1122 You are not understanding the point. You can't just look at it from your side, you have to look at it from other sides as well. And check again, the camera can zoom, just not by much. Most people might now want to have that feature because they don't plan on doing things that you did back in the old days and now. Look at it from others point of view, that is all I'm asking. Nothing more, nothing less.

[JPizzle1122]

@MetalGamingz - The camera isn't being made anymore. Why would I want to waste my money on a discontinued, over-priced video-only camera that can't even zoom? -- Especially when there are dozens of better alternatives available at lower price points.

@JPizzle1122 I do see that, but if you done some research, like i thought you would, the flip was suppose to be a better version of those record once and throw away from cvs. They then decided to change the name to flip in 2007. Now I will admit there, back then, it wasn't so good quality, but coming from a long way, I think you might want to try giving a second opinion on it.
