Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Flip Ultra Video Camera - White, 4 GB, 2 Hours (2nd Generation) OLD MODEL
Customer Review: Great camera, image somewhat shaky
Summary: 5 Stars
I love the convenience. The camera is completely user-friendly, anyone can use it, perhaps even without reading the manual. Connecting it to the computer is also easy, as well as downloading videos and e-mailing them. I'm not technologically savvy, so, if I can use it, anyone can. The only drawback is - no matter how much you stabilize the camera, the image will still appear shaky. You don't see it on the camera screen, but you certainly see it on the computer monitor. However, you still can't beat the convenience of filming something interesting and e-mailing it to your friends on that same day.Customer Review: Nice, but a few wrinkles..
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this a while back, and it is what it advertises itself to be. I have no problem with the product. The one caveat that I would mention is this... on my PC I use a wireless USB module. It seems as though the USB connection to the FLIP conflicts with that. It usually requires that I reboot the PC and my wireless router (with the FLIP unplugged) in order to get my wireless internet working again. It's just a toy, and it's fun. Just be aware that it may cause some conflicts and be ready to deal with it. Otherwise, the product is rock solid - I've dropped it twice and it still works!Customer Review: Nice. Easy. Cool.
Summary: 4 Stars
The Flip is easy to use and quite portable. It isn't as small as then newer ones, but it is easy enough to carry with you most of the time. Video quality is excellent - I don't know why you'd require HD, but if you do - pick something else. But if you just want very good video - this will be great. Microphone is a little weak, but reasonable. Only negative - I found that I really didn't like the Flip software for editing videos, but no matter - I just use iMovie. However, the videos don't REQUIRE editing - just a personal thing. You can upload them straight to the web as is.Customer Review: Excellent little camera!
Summary: 5 Stars
Does exactly what it says:
-- very easy to use: one button turn on, another button to start recording
-- the video is great quality: when the light is not that great, the video is actually better than what I see with a naked eye. Quite amazing!
-- The two little batteries last a looong time. In fact, I haven't managed to use them up yet
The only problem is that my dog stops doing whatever cute thing he is doing as soon as the camera comes out, and only wants to sit and stare. But that's not really the camera's fault...
Customer Review: Amazing fun.

I bought the Flip Ultra for my two granddaughters who are 11 and 13 to use. They had been borrowing my Kodak camera to make videos, quite frequently. Just girls fooling around, making a funny video with friends, and wanting to play it back. The ease of the Flip has made this much easier, and they can show it back right on the television. We all get to see the minimovies they are making. I love this product and would recommend it highly. Quality is fantastic, and the price is worth every penny. The Flip will help with making memories for a long time.
