Flip Video Ultra Series Camcorder, 60-Minutes (Black)
What fun to use; small & easy to carry for on-the-spot video. Plugs into usb port so you can edit and email video clip wave files to friends,family, websites. Great quality video; excellent sound & super value.

It would have been cool to do a video review of this product, but I couldn't quite figure out how to manage it. Besides that, like so many of the reviews I've tried to do with the camera, it probably would have gotten deleted through no fault of my own. The camera is easy to use, but perhaps that ease is part of the problem. With the touch of a button, you can record things for up to sixty minutes in the camera's memory. However, with the ACCIDENTAL touch of a button, you can also delete everything you recorded in a flash, and have no way of getting it back again. Seriously, a single brush of a thumb against that delete button is all it takes to lose everything. It's quite vexing, and if I hadn't gotten the camera for free, I would have gotten my money back for it. That freaking delete button should be placed far away from the rest of the buttons to avoid these types of catastrophes, and it should be the kind of button that has to be held down for several seconds before it takes effect. I have already lost TONS of videos, not to mention the heart to ever use the camera when I don't have my computer handy so that I can IMMEDIATELY transfer the videos to my hard drive before they get deleted.
Okay, so that's the reason in a nutshell that I've taken three stars away from this disappointing product. The two stars that remain reflect the ease with which anyone can use this camera, and the ease with which one can use it to upload videos online. Indeed, that is really the only reason to own this camera at ALL. If you're the kind of person who constantly films themselves for YouTube and/or wants to do tons of Amazon reviews, this is the camera for you. It makes uploading videos to those websites fast and easy. However, if you're planning to make films or capture important family moments or do anything of real value on this camera that you want to keep on a more permanent basis, DON'T BUY THIS. It would be a total waste of your money -- and once those videos you worked so hard on get deleted, you'll find that it's been a total waste of your time as well.

I gave this to my 10 year old son for Christmas--he's been wanting to make movies and I've been unwilling to let him use my $600+ video camera, so I was intrigued when I saw the Flip and bought it based on all the positive reviews, which are pretty accurate. Without reading any manuals (a dislike he inherited from his dad, naturally) he's been able to make movies and view them on our tv. I regret not buying one for my 8 year old daughter--we got her a Kodak digital camera but I suspect Santa will be delivering the Flip to her next Christmas.

Was uncertain about the image quality for this product after all I had heard, but was not dissappointed. Picture quality was superb, and it couldn't have been easier to use. The ultra series is worth the investment and this device can fit in your pocket to be ready to use in an instant. Buy it.

I originally got this under the impression that it took pictures as well as recordings but...it doesn't. So, other than that little glitch, it works very well.
