Flip Mino HD 8Gb AMAZING Camera – Get Amazing Experience With TOP QUALITY Camera

Just as I’d written a comparison between the Flip MinoHD 8gb plus the Flip UltraHD 8gb, Cisco released a brand spanking new Flip MinoHD 8gb with Ultra like features!

My initial conclusion was the Ultra wins over the Mino on numerous fronts. But now with the new Flip Mino camera they’re a great deal closer.

So if, like numerous individuals I have spoken to, you discover yourself stuck, here’s the vital info:

Both the UltraHD and MinoHD 120′s have:

* nice anti-glare 2in screens.
* HDMI out.
* rechargeable Lithium batteries. You’ll be able to use a power adaptor or charge via USB on your PC.
* 128 x 720 pixels resolution.
* the exact same sensor.

The UltraHD 120 mins:

* has 2.5 hours of use between charges (Mino has 2 hours).
* is heavier, weighing in at 6.0 oz (Mino is 4.1 oz).
* has a removable AA battery pack which means should you have 2 battery packs you can maintain shooting whilst one charges. (The Mino HD may also charge via USB or a power adaptor but this ties the camera up whenever you charge).
* is cheaper than the Mino (£50 less inside the UK / $29 less inside the US)

The Flip MinoHD 120 mins:

* can focus closer (0.8m) compared to UltraHD (1.5m).
* could be customised with designer graphics and your own design at Flip store (US only).
* is out there in brushed silver!

So where does this leave you if faced with these 2 alternatives? It’s in fact straightforward.

Buy the Flip UltraHD 120 mins:

* If you’re short of cash.
* If you’re shooting loads of footage and want to change batteries often / have longer battery life.
* If you aren’t worried about size.

Acquire the Flip MinoHD 8gb 120 mins:

* If you like funky.
* If cashflow is no difficulty.
* Should you want a slimmer, lighter camera to put inside your slimline pocket.
* In case you want to customise it with company/blog/family branding (via US Flip store, not UK). As an example, put a photo of your Kid or pet dog on it or add your countries flag for the World Cup.

Personally? I’d go for the Ultra HD, I’m not worried about it being a small chunkier, it feels additional robust. It’s substantially cheaper, has greater battery choices and identical picture quality to the Mino. A fast straw pole of my followers also confirms this view.visit:http://www.flipminohd8gb.com
