Digital camera reviews of Flip UltraHD Camcorder, 120 Minutes (Black)
Digital camera Review: Great little camcorder
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased the Flip UltraHD to document the birth of our first grandchild. My wife and I are extremely pleased with the results. It's easy to use and easy to download the videos to my laptop. The results were amazing for such a small camcorder. True, there's no image stabilization, but for the most part, it didn't matter if you're standing still while recording. If, however, you video things while walking or in a moving car, you should look at a camera with image stabilization.
The Flip has a built-in USB connector. The only issue I had was I had to place a magazine under my laptop so the port and connector would line up, reducing stress on the connection. Download was easy. Each video file is displayed on the PC while still in the camera. You can download the videos to any specified folder on your PC and rename them as you desire. The included software lets you combine individual clips to a single movie. (Every time you press the "stop" button, it saves the file to the camera. Pressing "record" starts a new file.) The software also lets you add music (as background where volume is lowered while the video sounds play [not low enough, in my opinion], or music only - eliminating any recorded sound.) The software comes with some music, but you can add your own MP3's. [careful about copyright laws!]
I have not found any problems with battery charging as reported by a few other reviewers. One selling point for me was that, if the rechargeable battery ran low, I can use AA batteries as a substitute.
We took videos in the hospital and in my daughter's home with no problems with lighting.
Overall, the size and convenience of the Flip has exceeded our expectations and has allowed us to document our daughter's day as they left for the hospital, in the hospital with our granddaughter, and returning home. Videos we will cherish for life.
Next, my oldest daughter is due today. The Flip is all charged and will be there as well.
