Digital camera reviews of Flip MinoHD Video Camera - Black, 4 GB, 1 Hour (1st Generation) OLD MODEL
Digital camera Review: 2 stars for its limitations that really bothered me
Summary: 2 Stars
- I purchased the flip minoHd and the Canon vixia hf100 to compare. After a week, I returned the flip minoHD and kept the Canon hf100.
- There were only 2 advantages of flip minoHD over Canon hf100, they both are cosmetic issues.
1) Flip minoHD is light, slim, and small
2) Very easy to use
- However, there were many limitations of flip minoHD that really bothered me. These limitations were not with Canon vixia hf100
1) No way to connect the minoHD to HDTV to play the recorded films. People tend to let you connect the camcorder to the HDTV (via hdmi) rather than to their PC/MAC to play the films. They worry more about personal, sensitive files on their PC/MAC to hand the PC/MAC to you
2) Only 1 hour recording space with minoHD. No way to put in additional flash card for more space
3) Limited battery time. No way to swap in the back up battery
4) No full HD (1080p) recording
5) No optical zoom and only 2x digital zoom.
6) No image stabilization
With the above limitations of minoHD, I felt handcuffed when compared to the Canon vixia hf100. More importantly, I only paid about $300 more to have the Canon (I paid $540 for Canon vixia hf100 + 16GB SDHC + mini hdmi cable)
The only negative of Canon vixia hf100 when compare to minoHD was the size and weight. However, its size was the can of soda. I have numerous of cargo pants and shorts so I'm fine with the Canon in my cargo pockets.
