Digital camera reviews of Flip Mino Video Camera - Black, 2 GB,1 Hour (1st Generation) OLD MODEL
Digital camera Review: Crafty little camera
Summary: 4 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Let me start by saying that this camera exceeded my expectations. I was really skeptic about the image quality and functionality, but the marks on these aspects are pretty high. Besides the good image, the camera provides a decent zoom and ease of use. Charging the battery and transferring video to a PC is a breeze thanks for the pull-out USB connector.
The only difficulty I had was when trying to use the included software to post the videos on youtube, since this site was not allowing me to upload videos longer than 10 minutes. If the software include with the camera would allow for automatically preparing the videos in segments to post them online I would have given it the maximum rating. Nevertheless, this is a product that I recommend with no qualms.
Digital camera Review: Cute small very basic camcorder
Summary: 5 Stars
It's real small which is great, fits in a pocket. Takes clear pictures (I haven't taken any closeups yet). I have to get used to the idea that it's moving pictures (I'm used to still cameras) so my pictures all start out focusing on my feet or floor or something (have to edit that part out). I love the fact that the USB connection is built in; I can just plug it into my computer and not only upload the video but also charge the camera while I'm fooling around on the computer, don't have to keep track of where the cord it or anything (that built in jazz is brilliant). I'm not a good cinematographer and my vids aren't going to be interesting or breathtakingly well shot, I don't expect them to be. I just want to take short shots of people and places and things that interest me. The "software" that comes [in?] the camera allows you to upload the vid in a tighter format for easier emailing out, squeezes down the size vastly so your recipients' emailboxes don't get overwhelmed. It's just a nifty, handy little camcorder that can be tucked in a pocket or purse, whipped out when you need it. I think it's worth the money. No memory card needed or battery replacements. Maybe now my pictures won't come out so blurry because they will be moving pictures for sure.Digital camera Review: DO NOT BUY
Summary: 1 Stars
Do not buy this product and do not buy from this seller (PC Micro Store). Yesterday (12/10/2009) this product was advertised for a much cheaper price and all orders were cancelled and it is now for sale for a much higher price. Dishonesty, a lack of integrity, and possible human error are all associated with this seller/product. Don't waste your time. Buy from somewhere else.Digital camera Review: Disappointed that item was &25.00 cheaper at KMART the day I received item from Amazon .com
Summary: 4 Stars
Item is user friendly and quality for size is fine.
Price is questionable in my opinion.Kmart selling
it cheaper.
Flip Mino Camcorder.
Digital camera Review: Do not buy
Summary: 1 Stars
It was a great little cam and I enjoyed it while it worked.
There is a reason that the warranty is only 90 days, because the battery fails after 5 months, even if used very little, and refuses to hold a charge now. I've attempted to reset it with a pin in the bottom and holding the button countless times, it's dead.
A 90-day warranty on a built-in non-replacable battery is a very bad idea, and an even worse product. Do not buy this unless you plan on purchasing a second within 6 months.
