 Best in Price January 7, 2008

I LOVE this little camcorder. Really easy to use, light weight and small enough to carry in your purse or pocket. The only draw back I've found with this camcorder is that it's only good for near shots. This is not the camera for shooting your kid's school play. Great for Christmas and Birthdays.
 J - U - N - K In a little package January 7, 2008

Waisted a lot of my time with this thing. The files get really big on the device, 20 minute videos may be 400mb in size. The problem was that we couldn't get them off of the camera. I used 4 different PC's, two with XP and two with Vista and still had the same problems. I had to go back out and re-shoot all the videos we took because of this problem. Small files would come off but not the big ones. Perhaps if it was on a removeable disk we could have gotten them off. We set for hours and hours working with this thing. Enjoy your trip back...
Great new camera for research January 7, 2008

This is the greatest little camera to add along with my digital camera for researching and documentation of family events. It is so small and it is alwyas in my purse to use when unexpected events take place. After I finally worked my way through the intros and instructions it is so easy. It is impossible to really put into words how much I have enjoyed using it. At 70+ years, I don't take to new gadgets right off the bat, and have to work my way through the process. It is highly recommended by me for any who love to document family and other events on a short notice.
 Good hardware - software buggy and weak.... January 6, 2008
5 out of 7 found this review helpful
The Flip is extremely easy to shoot video on. Picture quality and audio is quite good for such a small package (smaller than a typical digital camera).
Where the product totally lets down is in the on-board software. Neither my Mac nor PC could run the software without program errors. I loaded the firmware update as well and it was no better.
If you want to shoot simple videos and then save on your hard drive for editing by a different program, you should be pleased. But do not rely on the software that is installed on the camera - you will be frustrated and disappointed.
All-in-all, Pure Digital Technologies released this product too soon and without the proper software. I have tried support which promises to return an email within 4 hours during their stated hours. They don't.
This product's intended users in my household were my kids. They have fun shooting the video but doing anything constructive or creative with their videos is impossible. Thus, it sits unused.
The best! January 6, 2008

I bought the Flip as a Christmas present for myself. I have elderly parents and hope to include their story in the Story Project. The Flip allows me to gather bits at a time impromptu, is easy to use, and I'm able to take it anywhere. The recording button can be problematic in that you can press and press and it still doesn't record. It seems to get easier when you turn on the camera and wait a minute or two. The tripod accessory is invaluable for my purposes, freeing me up from the camera. Register your product for firmware updates. Forget the pouch, buy a universal pouch for digital cameras--much better protection for those of us that has the Flip rattling around in the purse. Check whatever pouch you use for protection from rain and spilled yogurt!
