The Kodak Zi8 is a great pocket cam. The Zi8 takes great video for such a small device and blows the Flip out of the water. I did a lot of on-line research and comparison with all the mini cams out there and think the Zi8 is the top cam out there right now. Vanns.com was also the cheapest price any where and I saved about $25.00 even with priority shipping compared to the discount retailer I was going to buy it from. Thanks Vanns.com!

I bought this camera to do some cheap promo work for my job and its done o.k. so far. The quality is certainly much better than the throwaway camcorder I was using and its certainly excellent for the price. I wish the image stabilization was better, but I really can't complain for the money I spent.
