How is the Flip Camcorder. Does it have a competing product?

Stacey

Answer
I own a Flip UltraHD and it does pretty good recordings ( view some of my videos here - http://www.youtube.com/xmlspy )

The top competing cameras are:
Kodak Zi8
Creative Vado

As of right now the UltraHD might be the best for the price ($155 - http://bit.ly/au83Nf ) followed by the Kodak Zi8 ( $180 - http://bit.ly/afSudd )

The one camera that I'm waiting for is the Kodak Playsport, which is waterproof too.

Kodak Waterproof 3meters Camcorder play sport EIS >> iMovie?

amelia

So, I got a new video camera, and I'd like to import some videos without putting them through iPhoto first. When I click the button that brings up the "open camera import window", it automatically goes to my computer's camcorder and doesn't have the option to change it to my video camera. I've also tried going to file>import from camera on the top, but that doesn't work either. The video camera is a Kodak Waterproof 3meter, and I'm not very computer savvy, so please be specific(: Thanks so much.

Answer
As playsport captures video in mov format which belongs to container format. Sometimes it contains codec that other sotware could not be recognized. Read the following tutorial and evaluate by yourself.
