Flip Camcorder Ultra Test in Concert

This is a video in order to show how the Flip Ultra Camcorder records in a concert. While the video is compressed for YouTube, it looks pretty decent, however, the sound isn't that great whenever the bass comes in. You can hear them very well when they're talking and the FlipCam even picks up people yelling in the audience, however, as soon as the bass comes in the volume decreases a lot.

This is a snipped of a video I took at the Tegan & Sara concert in Munich on March 7th, 2008 - this is the fantastic opening act Northern State promoting their CD "Can I Keep This Pen?"

Is the sound good for recording someone playing songs on electric guitar?

[Vivness]

@Rsaucido It's good unless there's a lot of bass (i.e. someone playing drums or bass guitar).

@lctm3 And we'd all be the happier for it. :)

umm dude can u tell me how u uploaded this video onto youtube? like did you save it onto a file or something before you uploaded it? Can you gimme the details? lol thx

[Vivness]

Ehm, how are you going to upload it if you don't have it as a file? Of course I saved it as a file. Then just enter the file destination and wait forever and tadaa, it's there.

You could also compress the video with Virtual Dub first.

Any more questions, please see the Help section of youtube...

they made the camera as simple as possible, but it's not suitable for serious musicians.

I meant for the flip camera that charges via USB power you can get an ipod charger or some other adaptor with a USB port for charging and then add a USB extension cable and you are good to go no worrying about finding a PC just plug it into an AC outlet. Sorry if I didnt make sense. that camera uses USB to charge. all you need is an iPod USB charger and the extension cable.
