Upside...
Superior High definition video quality. Very easy to run. Easy-to-use video-management computer software. Built-in FlipPort for optional add-ons including microphones, projectors. Micro-HDMI port.
Downside...
Cumbersome. Little 2-inch LCD. 8GB storage is absolutely not expandable. Virtually no analog microphone input jack. No macro mode or still image capture.
In A Nutshell
If you are seeking a dead-simple user experience and good-quality video in a pocket-size camcorder-rather than frills or a fancy design-the latest-gen Flip Ultra HD delivers.
