Flip HD Video

Just spotted this for half price at £89.99 and am thinking about purchasing one as I never take videos any more and would like to start doing some more for fun!

Is it a good camera for the price?

Will be interested to see the comments on this since I had been thinking of getting one too

They are pretty reasonable cameras. Mrs runs a few for her school department. Dead easy to use and upload, reasonable video footage in good light, sound can be a bit limited.

AIUI the company was discontinued last year/ 18mths ago so not sure where that leaves you with warranty.

I've had one for 3+ years with no problems, good little video recorder. Sis in Law has a Kodak one (Z something), the quality of the recordings on the flip in my opinion is better. IIR the company was bought by Cisco, who then discontinued it.
