(review)


The Flip Video Ultra Camcorder is extremely handy. I have other camcorders, that give me greater flexibility in terms of settings, but none is more convenient. I literally carry my Flip around with me now everywhere I go -- so I never have a situation where I want to film something and don't have my camcorder with me.

For outdoors shots, or indoor shots with decent light, the image quality is even comparable with what I get on a much more expensive camcorder -- especially if I only plan to show it on a television or the web. Even the sound is pretty good.

This quick video review was made using the Flip Video Ultra Camcorder and the Web Cam that comes built in to my Mac Book Pro laptop, and then I edited the footage using iMovie. On my Mac I don't bother to use the built in software -- although there is built in software for Mac on the camcorder -- I just plug it in and the camcorder creates a hard drive icon on my desktop. I can import the MPEG-4 files that Flip Video Ultra creates directly on to my desktop or into a project on iMovie. It is as easy to use as a thumb drive: just flip it open and plug it in.

An ideal camcorder for:
1. Anyone. No purse should not have one of these, and it fits nicely in pockets.
2. Parents. No silly or stupid or endearing moment should go unrecorded.
3. Kids. This camera is so easy to use there is no excuse for your child not to aspire to Spielberg.
4. Amateur filmmakers. The way to learn to make movies is by making lots of them. No need to get bogged down in technical details with this one -- just learn to tell stories.
5. Writers and reporters. I bought a fairly expensive Olympus digital voice recorder for use in interviews a while back, and I can honestly say that this records voice at medium range better than that did. The price ($120) was almost the same. Record your thoughts, interview on the fly.
6. Documentary and independent filmmakers. With handy devices like this, you can be a guerrila filmmaker -- and go unnoticed by those who might shut down a more conspicuous shoot.
7. Did I say anybody? Enjoy!

How to pick a good memory card and camera?




Kat


So I think I'm going to buy either the Samsung SL30 or the Kodak EasyShare M1063,I still don't know which one to pick and I am so confused with all these types of memory cards that both can apparently take.
I just don't know the difference between a Multimedia Card,SD Memory Card,SD HC Memory Card and Multimedia CardPlus. I want to get something that can store a lot of photos and that could also hold some videos.
Any help?
Thank you!!!



Answer
Really it doesn't matter, truthfully SD cards are the most common next to CF (Compact Flash)

SD HC stands for HIGH capacity and i believe they are more than 2 gigs, but it might be the 4 or 8 gig range it changed over.

ANYHOW your camera will have a usb port and you won't ever pull out your card if its big enough to store all your photos.

I looked up your cameras and both use the same card. SD or SD HC

at 10 mega pixels on my NIKON d60 with the max settings (jpg format wise) i can have 1200 or more pictures on my 8gig card.

Don't waist money on a super fast memmory card, that is for the big daddy camera's and camcorders, just go for above the bottom of the barrel card. in numbers i'd go with 66x or so speed (i use around there and haven't had problems with my nikon d60 which shoots 3fps for ever) (speeds are from 33x to 66x to 80x to 133x to 200x) the only thing this will effect is how long it takes to load the pictures from your cam to your computer, and you won't care anyhow just set it to store and go get a snack for 3 mins, and come back

the kodak camera has 2 advantages in my view,
1. easyshare has a nice little docking station printer thing which is neat
2. the kodak has a 1fps burst mode(up to 3 pictures) which is faster than the Samsung which has no burst mode, this means you can rapid fire a couple pictures of your kids playing and will not miss the moment correctly

if those don't matter save money and get the samsung. (otherwise amazon a few review's and see if people hate either one consistently) thats how i judge what i want to buy


If you can afford it go with a Nikon d40. you will never look back. but they are 4-500 dollars. (they are in a class named "DSLR")
they are a tad bigger than point and shoots, but you will never regret buying one.
