The Flip Ultra Camcorder – Is It For You?

The Flip Camcorder, designed by Pure Digital Technology is in the top 10 best-selling camcorders – you may know it as ‘The Flip’ as it is most commonly called.The Flip camcorder made by Pure Digital caused a fuss earlier this year by positioning itself in the market below the price point of traditional point and shoot camcorders.

The Flip Video Ultra Series is the newest member in Pure Digital’s popular Flip Video family of digital camcorders, the world’s first camcorders with on-board software to enable editing, organizing, and seamless video uploading to AOL, YouTube and other video sharing sites.

Pure Digital’s engineers worked with NYC-based Smart Design to develop the Flip Ultra camcorder, a minicam aimed at the YouTube generation.  Add some extra style and pizzazz to your flip ultra camcorder with a range of flip accessories including a soft pouch.

There is a pouch for your flip that offers protection and means you can attach it to you jeans, jacket or skirt.You may be surprised to find out that the pictures from this little camcorder are every bit as good as the ons taken by the bigger boys in the camcorder world such as Sony and Panasonic.The Ultra Flip (frequently termed The Silver) can deliver upto 60 minutes of VGA quality video with 2GB of inbuilt memory.

The price of the Flip is also pretty appealing, although the conventional tape camcorders are starting to fight back with their lower prices and solid specifications.So what we have is a camcorder that retails for less than $150 and is ultimately as good as those that sell for more than $600. This is one of the cheapest digital camcorders you will find.

No memory cards are required or no settings for light conditions, you just pick it up, point it and shoot away.Actually getting your precious videos on to your laptop is soooooo easy with there being no need to install extra software or drivers being.
