Flip software won't convert videos [Posted on 2008-09-02] I've enjoyed using this recorder, but I've run into a problem you need to be aware of. I taped a 4 minute video recently, with the intent to use the enclosed software to convert it for email and send it to family. The software would not convert the video. And after many seemingly "canned" responses from tech support that didn't address the problem, I was finally told that 4 minutes was too long to convert and that I should make my videos shorter. WHAT??
So please be aware that you had better not plan on making a vid more than a couple of minutes long if you want to send it to youtube or by email - the software won't convert it. And tech support was very unhelpful.
love my flip video [Posted on 2008-09-03] This camera is great for those with little ones. I am able to quickly capture first rolls, first smiles, first laughs and post them for family immediately. Dropped the camera on the floor (blame it on Mommy-brain) & it wouldn't turn on. I was disappointed thinking I had ruined it, but took the batteries out and put them back in and it works perfectly again. This was a great purchase!
oh so easy! [Posted on 2008-09-03] great deal for a portable digital camera when you're on the go and don't have much space. No need to find outlets, or worry if the battery's dead, or finding a blank tape. instant gratification! Especially with easy/fast download to computer. love that you can delete clips separately. wish it had more of a zoom but hey, it was a great deal at $126.
Love it!!! [Posted on 2008-09-04] Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R191B3T3G41LBG this is a movie mix i did of my son- it was sooo easy.
I'm happy that I got it. [Posted on 2008-09-05] I bought this camera because I wanted one that I could carry everywhere without worrying that it could get lost or stolen. The quality is lower than a regular video cam, but much better than a cellphone or photo cam. The only weak point of this cam is that the image is poor when you move as you film. Slow moves and firm grip will give you quality shots. Otherwise, it is a great camera, I recommend it. Also, I am woking on editing my vacation on Apple iMovie, and so far it is working just fine.
