The Flip goes HD
Chances are, you've heard of the Flip. You know, the super-compact digital camcorder with the flip-out USB jack and pre-loaded software that let you seamlessly upload all your latest video to your computer or sites like YouTube or Facebook. But you might not have heard this: the Flip has gone high definition. That's right, the Flip MinoHD 120min records high definition 1280 x 720 resolution video, capturing all your spontaneous moments with exceptional detail and clarity. Complementing the HD recording capability, the MinoHD 120min also sports an HDMI output, allowing you to connect immediately to your HDTV for a big-screen debut of your latest footage. Go HD with the flip MinoHD 120min.
The mini Mino gets a makeover
What's about the size of an audio cassette case and weighs just a few ounces? Chances are, you weren't thinking of a high definition digital camera. Discover the MinoHD 120min camcorder from Flip, now with extended recording capability, and expanded viewscreen, and enhanced style. At just 1.97" W x 3.94" H x 0.66" D, the Flip MinoHD 120min continues to define portability — it fits easily in your pocket, purse, backpack, glove compartment, or briefcase. Now, with an expanded 8GB built-in flash-memory drive, the MinoHD 120min lets you record a full 120 minutes of HD video footage. Next, an enlarged 2.0" LCD viewscreen is great for composing all your video, offering up a clear, detailed image of your subject. Additionally, a new brushed-metal front adds style and durability. Next, for fast performance, the MinoHD 120min offers a speedy 3-sec power-up time, ensuring that you don't miss the moment. Finally, a built-in, rechargeable Lithium-ion battery offers superior power performance.
A pair of features that you'll, well, flip for
Sure, most digital camcorders offer a USB input, allowing you to connect to your computer. Well, that is, if you happen to have a USB cable with you. You see, your computer has a USB input, too, meaning you need a cable with two male connectors to link the two. As you might already imagine, the Flip MinoHD 120min is not like "most digital camcorders." Delivering fast, simple, universal connectivity to your computer, the MinoHD 120min sports a flip-out USB jack. Because the MinoHD 120min offers an output, or male, USB connector, all you need is the Flip camcorder itself, no cable is necessary. Okay, so the Flip MinoHD 120min is connected to your computer . . . now, here's where things really get fun: Using pre-loaded FlipShare software, the MinoHD 120min lets you accomplish a variety of tasks, all at the touch of only a couple buttons. Browse, play back, organize, or archive your videos. Instantly load them to Facebook, MySpace, YouTube, or other sharing sites. Create movies with video clips, music, and titles. Edit clips and create still shots from video. You can even email videos to friends and family. Go ahead, flip out.

This camera is not just ultra-portable and easy to set-up and use but the battery life and storage are also great. The best feature about this camera is that it has an HDMI output that directly connects it to your HDTV, by far one of the best HD cameras out there.

This is one of the coolest new tech gadgets to come out in a long time. I highly recommend this device. It is very easy to use and the picture quality will blow you away. The price point is well below what they could be charging. I am socked that more people do not know about this product. Pick one up today and have fun.

Some improvements could be seen in the Optical zoom - currently 2 or 3 - would be nice to see it at 5X.
Performs well, again greater optical zoom should have been an enhancement on this next-gen.
extremely easy to use...although have noticed some image stabilization is lacking and could be improved.
Overall, great product, good price and Id buy it again..unless I can see what the 5X zoom is really like on the Kodak product z8 or some other name. Never had the chance to test more than one of its products and then discovered that it needed a media card and thats when I made my decision to get this Flip!

A great, convenient, and excellent product. I took this to Rome with me and recorded a singer from about 15 to 20 feet away and got a crisp sound!! This camera is a very sophisticated piece of equipment for its size and price. The only thing I might have wished for would be a zoom lens. Other than that, no complaints!!
