Flip Ultra HD vs Kodak Zi8 - Which One Is Better?

http://RapidVideoBlogging.com

I've been getting a lot of people asking me which camera to use for online video. So I decided to do a quick Flip UltraHD vs Kodak Zi8 review - my two favorite low cost online video cameras.

Inside the video, I go through the pro's and cons of each camera the way I see it.

Remember, that I am biased, and I mainly use these little cameras for online video and YouTube. So, I'm not saying these two cameras are the best out of ALL cameras - they are simply the best in my view for this particular purpose!

Make sure you leave your comment below... I'd love to hear your thoughts about each of these cameras for the Flip UltraHD vs. Kodak Zi8.

Talk soon!

Why would you perfer AA batteries?? ... You would spend so much money on buying more and replacing them.

[GideonShalwick]

@michellescorner Hey Michelle - rechargeable AA batteries work out quite cheaply :)

Is it still worth buying the Zi8 now or are there newer "good value" pocket cancorders out today?

[GideonShalwick]

@Kiasko Zi8 still great, but apparently the new Kodak is even better - I have not tested it though so I cant say for sure.

[ejtiprost]

how much did the flip pay you ?

[GideonShalwick]

@ejtiprost Flip paid me nothing. But maybe they should have, given all the flack I am getting for having them as my personal preference lol!

this guy really loves the flip..I think the kodak is soo much better.

[unspecialfish]

This is a ridiculous review. The reviewer's opinion on the cameras seems biased to the point where it could be considered trolling. Having more options than four buttons can be "confusing?" Many of the categories were clearly weighed in the direction of the Flip camera even when the Kodak was clearly better. This removed all credibility and made him look like a dumbass.

What camera did you use to record this video?

[pcfix411]

Having to make an extra step to edit in vegas knocks the kodak down a notch.

[ILostTobin]

Just thought I would let you know: Sony Vegas will read these files, as long as you have Quicktime installed on your computer (giving you the codecs that are required).

I also feel like the audio wasn't stressed enough. That is what REALLY sold the Zi8 for me. These tips are for people with a small budget, and so recommending that you buy an external voice recorder dosen't make a lot of sense. I was able to pick up a good Sony stereo mic for under $5 and drastically improve the sound.
