Simly The Perfect Digital Camcorder

The Flip Ultra, the second and improved version of the original Flip digital camcorder from Pure Digital hit the market by storm. With its ease of use, great video quality, and their small size, the Flip Ultra digital camcorder can be doubled as camera "simply perfect" digital.

Comparative characteristics:

Unlike the Sony Handycam series screen of the Ultra Flip is tiny (1.5 inches) and does not turn to self-portraits.

No still shots. Unlike other digital camcorders traditional, like the Canon DC there are no settings, menu buttons, no light, no lens cap and no memory card.

Unlike the GRD-250 Canon boasts a wide range optical zoom, the Flip has no optical zoom, only 2 x digital zoom.

And while Sony Handycam digital camcorders have been created to be compact looks like a tank compared to the pocket sized Flip Ultra.

Unlike the complicated menu of buttons on the GRD-250 Canon, the Flip Ultra digital camcorder has three buttons, play, stop and trash. Not even battery, it works with AA batteries.

While other digital camcorders, including Sony and Canon use different media for storage recordings such as DVDs, flash drives or MiniDV cassettes, Flip Ultra has no tapes or disks, all footage is downloaded via USB attached, which appears at 90 degrees to the camera body.

That the USB plugs into a computer and sequences is then downloaded to the PC, which can be read, copied to a hard drive and burned onto DVD, and of course adapted to publishing programs the more standard. There is also a special cable to connect the TV and watch the film directly.

The filming process:

Press the red button once to record and once to stop. Press PLAY to see the video. Press trashcan to delete scenes. That's it! With this ease of use the Flip Ultra digital camcorder is ideal for the more novice users.

Size Does Matter:

Unlike conventional digital camcorders, and even the most compact models, such as the Sony Handycam, the Flip Ultra can go anywhere and everywhere, like a purse, beach bag, or pocket. It is very robust so you can take it skiing, the playground, while playing a sport and almost everywhere you might need to shoot some clips. There is even a case of accessory acrylic that lets you take it underwater!

Quality Video:

With all this simplicity and a minimum sale price of under $ 150, the Flip Ultra digital camcorder offers incredible picture quality, comparable to that of its more sophisticated counterparts, such as models from Sony and Canon. It has TV resolution (640 x 480 pixels, 30 frames per second).

The most striking feature of the Flip Ultra, especially given its simplicity compared to more traditional brands and digital camcorder sophisticated, the capacity is low light, which prevails even the most expensive digital camcorders. Not only is the video grain free, but recorded dim scenes actually see more clearly that they looked to the naked eye.
