I bought this camera to use in my classroom to record my students reading and giving current events; flip video folks claim that it will record up to 12' away. At twelve feet there was no sound at all and when I recorded from 3-4 feet I got some sound but the voices were garbled and distorted.
I would not recommend this camera to anyone, its really not a camera but a pretty shiny toy/

This is my first camcorder, recommended by an internet mentor, and I have used it for my first two attempts at videos for social media purposes (e.g., my blog, FaceBook, YouTube, etc.). So far I am far from adept and have not published my attempts, but the gadget is easy to use, compact to carry, and appears to produce good quality. My only problem so far has been creating a video that will not stop and start intermittently when I send it to myself (to test) via email. Flip Support has been quite attentive and tried to help me solve this problem, diagnosing it as not having the full 1GB of ram on my desktop (I have .99 GB). They have suggested I use a special link, found in the Flip software, to send my videos, have them compacted, and thus be able to send good copies. Haven't tried it yet. The only physical problem - and it's minor - is that when plugging the camcorder into the computer, desktop or laptop, it hangs at an angle and thus must be supported (with a book for my desktop). But overall so far I'm satisfied. I use it on a tripod, for steady pictures, and have only tried it in good daylight. Plan to test a few more things when I have time - e.g., indoor-with-lights.

First up - great service from Amazon. I returned 2 of these and was refunded. The first one to be returned had a bad pixel - and also had touch buttons that randomly worked. The astonishingly bad customer service folks at Pure Digital made me jump through hoops and send them multiple files which they claimed they could not read (...tested OK for me on both PCs and Mac when downloaded form THEIR customer support site). In the end they gave me a return authorization -- but tough luck if you are outside the US - they won't accept returns. I hope the Cisco Quality Management team send a rocket up these guys - from other reviews you don't want to have to deal with them. So Amazon did help which is GREAT and sent me a replacement. This one didn't have any bad pixels but was out of focus. Which gave me time to reconsider. The lack of image stabilization is a killer - you absolutely need this on an HD video image -- and iMovie 09 isn't going to save the day. In the end I bought a Lumix ZS3 which has a great lens and great image stabilized HD video. The Mino HD is a cheap toy. Buy Cheap - Pay Twice!

When I first received this camera I was thrilled and couldn't wait to take it on vacation with me. While on vacation it needed to be recharged, for the first time. I plugged it into the approved USB wall charger and the camera would not charge, even though it indicated it was. I could not use the camera on the rest of my vacation. When I got home I tried plugging it into my computer. Again, it would not charge. Flip did replace the camera but the replacement has the exact same issue. I have now read many reviews that indicate I am NOT the only one who has this issue. It is a major, major problem and Flip does not seem to be working on correcting this issue at all. A major disappointment.
