The Flip Video Camcorder is a nice piece of electronics. For many people this may be the only camcorder that they will ever need. However, while this version is pretty good - I would recommend considering the newer models (see video review).
Pros-
- Handy little camera - easy to carry around
- Decent movie quality - while it is not great it is certainly good enough for YouTube
- Included software is pretty intuitive
- Competitively priced
- Holds a full 60 minutes of video
Areas to improve-
- Like all of the Flip Video camcorders the video can be a bit jerky/shaky
- This model requires Double-A batteries and is not rechargeable
- Cheaper finish and look compared to the Flip Video Minis
- Nearly twice the size of the Flip Video Minis
- I had some quality problems when turning it on (it didn't always come on).
