Digital Camcorders Reviews

The newest Flip HD Camcorder on the market is the Flip MinoHD Camcorder 2nd Generation. This sleek and upgraded camcorder is available just in time for the holidays and will make a great gift to give.

The Flip MinoHD 2nd Generation is a pocket-sized camcorder that is super thin so it can travel with you everywhere. You’ll never miss a shot as long as you have this camcorder in your pocket or in your purse at all times.

The brushed-metal front piece on the Flip MinoHD has nice rounded edges and is a huge improvement over the previous model. It’s not a fingerprint magnet and it feels heavier and sturdier. The built-in USB is redesigned and is entirely metal – no more plastic hinges.

The new Flip MinoHD has twice the storage space with 8GB instead of 4GB. It records up to 120 minutes of video. The anti-glare LCD screen is 2? wide instead of 1. 5? to give you better viewing ability.

The MinoHD gives you higher resolution videos that aren’t bouncy or shaky. To use the FlipShare Software just flip out the USB connector and plug it in to your PC or MAC. You’ll be able to download and playback videos, and freeze-frame shots to make photos. You can share your favorites with your friends by making fast uploads to Facebook, MySpace, YouTube, and others.

The newest Flip HD Camcorder for 2009, the Flip MinoHD 2nd Generation, is reasonably priced and delivers in quality. What a great gift for families, teenagers, and college students!

I’m looking to set myself up as a videographer for a junior sports association this summer. I’ve been looking into purchasing a decent camcorder because prosumer equipment, as much as I would like to own it, is out of my price range. I’ve researched up and down through the HDD flash and hard drive camcorders, and found just too many issues be it battery life or editing compatibility with Final Cut Pro. So after days of research, I’ve ended up where I started, looking at the Canon HV30 as my best option.

The issue for me is that my budget for a full package is in the range of $1500 CDN. A HV30 package will run me around $900. A mini jack mic or XLR adapter pushes me up to $1100 or so (+ a mic if I go the XLR adapter route. ) Then I need something to capture the DV tapes with, and a deck is not an option due to the price.

If I’m capturing HD footage shot on the HV30, do I need a camera equivalent to the HV30 to capture on? Or can I use a cheap standard def camcorder to capture with? (i. e. http://www. futureshop. ca/catalog/proddetail. asp?sku_id=0665000FS10103916&catid=10545&logon=&langid=EN) Will I lose resolution? Do I have other options?

(If not, can you recommend an HD camcorder with decent compatibility with Final Cut Pro?)

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,
Daniel
I would prefer not to use the HV30 to capture with for fear of wearing out the heads.
