Customer Review: So Easy An Eight-Year-Old Can Use It Effectively
Summary: 5 Stars

I recently purchased the Flip Video Camcorder for my eight-year-old nephew to use on a Jamaica vacation. He needed to complete a daily journal as a school assignment. I knew that a video would help him painlessly record detail to include in his writing and that commentary and interviews would provide stimulating support for his written journal summaries. From the moment we "took flight" he captured his experiences; he had no difficulty manipulating the easy to use Flip. Besides this ease of operation, the small size and weight for undemanding transportability recommend this camcorder for the young and the novice to capture experience and events.

Customer Review: SO FAR SO GOOD
Summary: 4 Stars

Received it today, and the hardest part was getting it out of the thick plastic clam shell. I have only taken a one minute video, while sitting at my desk, just to check on the quality of the picture, audio & lighting, to my surprise they were all above average to which I am very pleased, so it will be taken along on our cruise to the Panama Canal this Dec. For some reason it took me only a few minutes to install it on my wife's Dell 8200 kitchen computer, but over two hours to get it up and running on my Dell 9100 ?
Overall I think it is a good buy for the money and would recommend it to all my friends and family.

Customer Review: Surprisingly good
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this camera, thinking, rightfully so that 60 minutes of recording is good enough. I've only taken 3 minutes at a time, so this product is perfect for me. The video quality is surprisingly good.
The Bad? The zoom buttons are too close to the record button, so I have shut off recording accidently a couple of times now.

Saving the videos is simple, the software, which had to be updated but no problems, takes care of everything. It does take a minute on my computer, but it isn't a deal breaker for me.

All in all, for about a hundred and ten bucks, I'm VERY happy with my purchase.

Customer Review: WOW - so easy even I can use it!! LOL!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm not the most gifted person when it comes to technology, BUT I adore this little FLIP VIDEO. You take it out of the package and it's ready to go. The instruction booklet is super easy. Basically there are only a few buttons. PRESS A BUTTON - record. PRESS THE SAME BUTTON - stop. It's also very easy to delete. When you attach FLIP to your computer with the built-in USB attachment, it automatically walks you through the steps to download the videos. And it only uses ONE AA BATTERY. How cool is that? You can put it in your pocket and take it anywhere. I love this gadget! Elaine :)

Customer Review: Convenient product
Summary: 3 Stars

The Flip Video is perfect for recording quick bits of video. It's handy and easy to use. It definitely is not as good as a camcorder - the sound quality is not great and it doesn't zoom very far. It can record for about an hour and the picture quality is decent. Downloading the videos to a computer is simple and it keeps with some pre-loaded software which allows you to edit, email, save, and make photos from the videos. It's a good product and fun to play around with. It's very light - lighter than a camera and is about the size of a camera. It is very easy to send video clips with this product.
