- Wish it had worked
- I loved the camera itself--small, light, streamlined. Unfortunately I could not save video clips longer than a few minutes and editing using the flip video software was impossible. It crashed my Macbook and desktop Mac more times than I care to remember. I tried reinstalling the software but never was able to complete the editing process. A colleague has had similar problems with her Mac and the flip video ultra. Since all the reviews have been great, I'm assuming it works better with a PC. An additional drawback is that it has only a 2X zoom which means you need to be up close to get any kind of decent shot.

- Flip Video Ultra-the greatest invention since ice cream
- The flip video ultra is the best item I have ever purchased. The video camera is so small & easy to use. It doesn't even need instructions. The best part is the software installed on the camera that produces movies with music. It adds special effects automatically. I love it. Bought one for each of my children & have referred al least a dozen people who have also purchased it. It is very inexpensive ($149) for the 60 minute version on Amazon.

- A Rare Treat
- Every so often a product comes along that sets a standard.
iPod was one.
Flip is another.
It is the epitomé of an easy to use digital camcorder.
Sure, most compact digicams can take digital video, but not with the easy of Flip and rarely of the same quality. I got my white 60 Ultra about a month ago and I love using it. It is the perfect device to keep close at hand for that candid kid moments you want to share with family or just treasure forever. Turn it on and press a button and you are recording. Press the big red button again to turn it off. It is that simple.
I'm on a Mac and have no problems interfacing, downloading and veiwing the AVI files. I wish it had more options for file format and size, but I downloaded a few freeware programs that took care of those issues. The quality of the files is quite good and looks super on my TV as well as on my monitor. The sound quality isn't bad either.
Is Flip perfect? No, but it has no real glaring flaws that keep its PROs from shining.
This is a great little device that I'd recommend to almost anyone. - 2007-11-26, 27 of 27 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- A Mommy Must-Have
- I am so tickled with the Flip Ultra! It is truly a must-have for any mommy that has ever said, "Oh, I wish I had the video camera right now!" With the Flip, now you can have a high-quality video camera with you everywhere, all the time. It's small and light enough to go in your purse; I even carry it in my pocket when we go out so that I can whip it out at a moment's notice. It's also stylish, very easy to use, and the picture quality is outstanding. You will be so happy you have this!
Battery note: I always find it helpful when reviewers share their battery life experience, so here's mine. So far I have only used regular AA batteries, not rechargeable. A pair of Energizers lasted about an hour and 15 minutes - more than enough to fill the 60 minutes worth of memory before having to get fresh ones. - 2007-11-26, 15 of 15 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Great Video for Dummies
