 Needs image stabilization September 6, 2010
Shopperholic (Copiague, NY United States)
I am not sure why these cameras are so popular. I'm not tossing it in the Goodwill box, but I would not buy another.
Biggest con, no stabilization. I found the video to be waaaaay too jumpy.
But even when I'm not trying to use it on a boat, I love the fact that you can use regular AA batteries when the battery goes dead. This pro, however, is somewhat canceled out by lack of removable storage. If I could swap out batteries and memory cards I wouldn't be tied to my laptop so much. I would like the ability to record in non-hd to maximize storage but if that's an option I can't find it.
And while the large lens looks great, the fact that it protrudes so much makes it a fingerprint magnet.
The included Flip-share software is pretty cool, I wish it had the capability to view and share video from other devices.
 Battery does not charge September 6, 2010
Pickypicky (Massachusetts, USA)
I would like to weigh in on the battery charging capability. I bought a Flip Video HD camera last December (so I have owned it about 8 months), and I have never managed to successfully charge the original battery pack through the USB connector attached to a computer, as it is supposed to do. For a while I resorted to using AA batteries all the time. Then recently I purchased the flip video power adapter. After hooking up the video camera to the power adapter and leaving it to charge overnight, the rechargeable battery pack still did not charge. I'm still trying to figure out which part of the equipment is faulty - whether it's the battery or the camera. This has been a significant source of frustration and has caused me to avoid using the camera. I think it is too late for me to return it (though I think I will look at the manufacturer's warranty now), but I would like to advise anyone else who has this charging issue straight out of the box to return the product for a refund.
 Filming Review September 6, 2010
Willy
This camera is great for filming a show if you want to put it on the internet or your family if you want to remember a fun day or even a road trip. It is one of the easiest cameras I have been exposed to. You push a button to turn it on and you point it at the thing you want to film and press another button to film. That's it! And transferring it to your computer is super easy too. Just make sure to transfer the video into another folder before renaming it. Tip! If you need a cheap, easy-to-use camera, get this one.
looks cheap, display too small, barely any zoom function September 6, 2010
Inga (San Diego, CA United States)
i sent this cam back for a refund.
the video on my iphone 4 is by far superior
you can hardly zoom in
it looks really cheesy
display is way too small
very simple to use though, maybe suitable for young kids or the elderly
invest in a flash cam or a good smartphone instead
Not as good as I'd hoped September 5, 2010
Ele (North Carolina)
I decided on this based on other reviews. I wasn't looking for fabulous playback, but didn't expect the poor results I got. Playback is fuzzy in both high and low lighting environments - in fact, my digital camera takes better movies. The only redeeming quality to this is the software that allows you to pull stills out and save them as photos. You can get some very nice pictures this way. Not high quality, but still nice.
