I like this video because it’s honest. It shows the pluses and minuses of choosing a Flip. As you might have figured I am a Flip fan, but you need to use the camera to its’ strengths.
As I’ve said before I use the Flip because it’s hassle free and I can take it everywhere, no clip on batteries or big bags required. I wouldn’t bother lugging a bigger camcorder around (especially as I am already weighed down with a laptop on the tube or a bag full of Kid Stuff at the weekend). I’d rather capture the moments than miss them whilst my super all singing and dancing, tea making camcorder sits at home.
If I was going to shoot a sports day or school play from a distance I wouldn’t rely on the Flip and shoot on something else, it’s zoom wouldn’t get me close enough but for the buzz afterwards, it’s great.
Until you own a Flip it’s hard to get why they are so cool and convenient but this video will give you a clue.
