Flip Video Camera

The Flip Cam is one of the easiest video cameras that I have ever used. The software it comes with is easy to learn and can do some fun simple editing that kids and adults can work, without the hassles of larger media studios.

Easy to use and great software, May 5, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I think people that rate the Flip negatively need to realize its target audience. I mean, if you want lots of features and professional quality, you shouldn't even be looking at the Flip. Spend your $1000 and buy a nice Canon HD camcorder. Then lug the thing around.

But, if you want a simple to use, good quality HD camcorder(and yes 720p is HD...just ask ABC TV), with very easy to use software, then buy this.

I did, for my wife, and she loves it. Where as our nice Sony camcorder just sits in the closet, she will actually carry this Flip around with her.
