Flip Ultra Camcorder Demo
Follow up my demo of the Flip camcorder a few months ago, this is the same scene with the new Flip Ultra. The big improvement is the tripod attachment point on the camera. This scene was recorded with the camera on a tripod. The audio narration was added separately.
NOTE ADDED Feb 09: If you like trains, check out my other videos. Most of the train videos are captured with the Flip Ultra Camcorder.

Wow man that video …
Wow man that video looks really good! I have been looking everywhere for a camcorder to use for my kayak and boating trips. Currently I am using a miniDVD corder and its too much of a hassal to convert the videos just to edit in movie maker then finally post on youtube. Tired of fooling around with the miniDVDs too. Glad I seen your vid of scenery, I am getting one of these tomorrow. I was wondering how well it would work with scenery and this vid answers my question.

Hi, thank you for …
Hi, thank you for the questions. The short answer on both is no. It records in VGA quality with a 4:3 ratio and it can’t take still pictures. The Flip MinoHD (see another comment below) will record in widescreen but I have not tried it out.

Hi, thanks for …
Hi, thanks for watching and the nice comment. As for the price, I see the Ultra is on Amazon for about $115. The MinoHD is about $191. Reviews and comments I’ve read say there isn’t that much difference between Ultra and Mino picture quality. For the price, I think the Ultra is a great deal.

An excellent question. With a full, fresh charge, I have found it good enough to last for 60+ minutes, which will accomodate the maximum file size. The battery, as all batteries will, loses capacity over time if it is not used, so I’ve found it important to do a fresh charge before an important video session. Thank you for the question.
