I bought the flip a few days prior to birth of my first child. We used in while my wife was in labor and it worked out great. Since all our immediate family came, but they could not all be in the delivery room, we were able within minutes of the delivery to share the video with them.

It works easy, just like it says. The only other comment is that my laptop USB plugs are not at the same height as the USB plug on the flip, so I end up propping up my laptop about 1/3 of an inch so that they line up better.

I absolutely love my Flip Ultra Camcorder! I highly recommend it! I am one of those people who just wants something handy for those special moments that just jump up and demand video. I hate lugging anything big around and this fits in my purse perfectly. I don't expect to make movies like DeMille or Spielberg, I just want to record family and fun and this fits the bill! I've taken my recorder to the river (highly recommend the aquapac), to Disneyland, weddings, sledding in the snow with the grandkids and videotaping just how darn cute they are! My grandkids are always asking me to videotape them now and make a movie-they think they are stars! I also have to tell you that customer service is great! I originally had a problem with my flip video and sent it in to be fixed. They said they couldn't fix it so they sent me back a new one! No hassle customer service. In summary, good customer service, the price is right, easily downloads and shares, and the sound and picture quality is much better than I had expected. All around this was a great purchase for me!

I love my little Flip video, I take it everywhere and am ready to video anytime. It's easy to download and has a zoom. I recommend this product, what a blast!

For the price, there is no zoom, no ease in taking the video and downloading is a chore. Get extra memory, get another camera!

Great little camera, compact, light, easy to use, good night and low light picture, and overall a great picture.
