 Not ready for prime time December 5, 2007

I sent it back. Video camera is very good if you want to shoot 60 minutes of video and then delete it to shoot some more. However, the camera's self-contained software (including their "updated" software from online) to transfer even the shortest video to any of my three different computers and operating systems and/or e-mail failed due to "error" with the only instruction given: "Try again later." I read all the bad reviews, all the fixes offered by experts, and tried. Pure Digital offered to replace the camera, maybe, someday, after I send them serial numbers, etc. But, that might be too late to then get my Amazon refund if software still defective. Believe what you read about this camera not working.
 Great gift for new parents! December 5, 2007

We have a 5 month old son and got the flip video as a baby gift. We had been debating about buying one of the more expensive camcorders and did alot of research, but were concerned that we'd spend all that money and never use it. We LOVE the flip and use it all the time. It's super light, simple to use, sticks easily in a diaper bag, and turns on so quick we never miss any moments. Plus, all you have to do to get the video onto your computer is click one button to open up the USB port connector and stick it into your USB port. The software automatically runs and you can either upload the video to a site, email it to your friends or save it to your computer. I am a HUGE fan and highly recommend it!
Too many errors December 5, 2007

I bought the iFlip 30 minutes as an impulse buy the day after Thanksgiving because I wanted a cheap video camera to carry in my diaper bag for taking quick videos of my twins. After finding that the software associated with the camera was not very compatible with my mother-in-law's pc with Vista, I followed the "Read Me" directions and was able to copy the files straight to the hard drive. The problem is that only the first video (of 3 short videos would copy) would copy. The others would play from the camera, but whenever I tried to copy them to the machine it would stall. Thinking it was a vista problem, I decided to just quit trying and wait until I got back home from the holiday to try it on my MacBook Pro. I deleted those 3 videos and started over. This time I tried one video. It worked. But then I took another video and when I tried uploading that it stalled again.
I returned this iFlip to Walmart, hoping it was a defective unit. And then I ordered the 60 minute iFlip from Amazon.com. But I had the same problems! If I have more than 1 video to upload from the camera it stalls out during the file transfer and the only thing I can do is unplug it mid-transfer which of course isn't good for the data.
-The picture was decent (about as good as you can expect from a very cheap camera).
-The zoom was worthless (but that is okay, because I could have done without it).
-The price was right.
BUT what good does it do me if I can only record one video at a time?? I can record a video on my digital camera and immediately upload it to my computer, I don't need a second electronic device for that. So, sadly, we are returning this one too. :(
great for the price December 5, 2007

i bought an aiptek digital camcorder last year. it was only about $20 less than the flip video 60 min camcorder. the difference is amazing. shooting indoors with the aiptek was pretty worthless. the image was very dim, no matter how bright it was inside. the very first video i shot with the flip video was indoors and the difference was remarkable. i am very happy with the flip video so far. (thought i've only had it a few days so far.) it's a great camcorder to keep in your pocket or purse for those spur of the moment videos.
NICE CAMERA! December 5, 2007

Great and very easy to use.
Practical and perfect for short fun videos on the go.
Put away that bulky old tank you call a video camera and get a flip!
