Cool Accessories For Mini Digital Camcorders Like The Flip Mino

Ranked #17,843 in Computers & Electronics, #354,911 overall

By now you should have heard of mini digital camcorders like the Flip Mino. There are several others on the market too. They are small, easy to carry and easy to upload your videos to YouTube.

I was sold and bought my black Flip Mino a few weeks ago. I love it!

Over the years I have learned that one good gadget deserves several new accessories to go with it. So after purchasing my Mino I set out to see what else I could buy to go with it.

I found some accessories that are total must haves like the three USB cords. I never like my flip hanging in mid air off the side of my laptop to recharge or download the videos. Now it can sit on the table and be connected by a cord.

    Hi Eunice

    I did some research and I found this site where the guy hacks his flip to be a wide angle.
    http://www.bikecommuters.com/2008/09/08/hack-your-flip/

    He did it on a Flip Ultra so I don't know for sure if it can be done the same on a mino.

    He has several videos that will help too.

    The supplies can be found at Best Buy, Amazon etc.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi,

    Just stopping by from Natural Networkers to check out your first squidoo. I bought a flip camera a few months ago and really love how easy it is to use. BUT, I've heard there's a wide angle lense you can buy but can't find it anywhere. Ideas? I've looked on Amazon, where I originally bought it, and the recommended lens is not available to buy. Hope you can help!

    Great first lens, by the way.
