Comments on: Flipping for The Flip http://www.johnchow.com/flipping-for-the-flip/ The Miscellaneous Ramblings of a Dot Com Mogul Sun, 12 Oct 2008 23:29:00 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: Brian Wong http://www.johnchow.com/flipping-for-the-flip/#comment-142271 Brian Wong Thu, 24 Apr 2008 03:52:12 +0000 http://www.johnchow.com/?p=4067#comment-142271 I've been using my old Canon Digital IXUS 800IS Camera as my video capture device for a while now. I bought a 2GB flash card for over 1hour of video and it can capture up to 60 fps. Movies are imported to iPhoto together with photos when I plug in the camera. When I launch iMovie, it autopmatically imports the new footage from iPhoto and can be edited easily using iMovies point and click tools. Best part is the one button upload to YouTube from iMovie, all the compression and resizing is done by iMovie. Then I just use the Viper Video plugin to add the YouTube video to my blog with a single line of code.

Had mine since Dec 07 and take it with me everywhere. The audio and visual quality is very good for a small camera. Works excellent with Windows Movie Maker and easy editing. I've made a lot of videos and make it a habit of putting video on my site. Cheryl The Flip Video Camera is awesome. Had mine since Dec 07 and take it with me everywhere.

I forgot that my Cybershot records vid. I have a full size recorder but get tired of mulitple devices and after hearing about the flip wanted something small. Went last night to check out smaller hand held recorders...flip in mind. Of course they didnt have it so I bought a new 160gb iPod to replace my 30gig. Was getting online today to find the flip but wanted to see video examples. My cyber has the same specs, limited to the size of my sd stick and has twice the size screen of the flip. Can't see the need now except I surf, wakeboard/skate and dive so the underwater case for the flip seems interesting though? Glad I read this.
