Reasons Why The Flip Video Mino is the Best Pocket Camcorder
Pure Digital has just released the new Flip Mino miniature camcorder to join the other ultra-portable video cameras in their popular range of Flip Video camcorders. The pocket-sized Mino is a new camcorder design that is very compact and much slimmer than the Ultra models and the original Flip camcorder.
The whole concept behind these camcorders, and the factor that also allows for their miniature construction, is the fact that they use solid state internal flash memory to store the video recordings. Previously all camcorders used tapes or disks as the storage medium.
The 2 gb of flash memory in this diminutive video camera allows for 60 minutes of video recordings to be stored internally in the camcorder without the use of any other storage devices.
The sales promotions for the Flip Mino declare that these small devices are totally simple and totally fun. They have been designed specifically for ease of use and portability. You do not need any technical knowledge to use them and to start recording video you just press the touch sensitive record button and then just press it again to stop.
The batteries are integrated in to the device and can be recharged and ready to leave home with you at any time. Just take it with you in your pocket wherever you want and always be ready to snap some great video footage.
Connectivity to the internet, so you can easily transfer videos to YouTube, Facebook, Myspace and other video web sites, is also provided. Just use the clever USB connector to copy your video recordings on to your PC or laptop. All this can be done quickly and very simply using what is provided with the new Flip Mino.
The Flip Mino records video at 30 frames a second which is displayed at a 640 x 480 VGA resolution on a new 1.4″ screen that has been designed to reduce glare. If you have a Mac computer you will be happy to know that the Mino is compatible and can also be connected direct to your television for instant playback.
Currently there is nothing on the market that can match the Flip Mino for simplicity and portability. It sells at a great price which makes it easy for anyone to afford. And it is so much fun! Just pick it up, put it in your pocket and record videos whenever you want.
