We are pleased to announce the arrival of our Flip Video Cameras! These tiny little cameras are my new favorite item at Small Dog. They are about the size of a cell phone and very simple to use. To get started, you only need to click a total of about three buttons to film your video and plug into your Mac!
The USB cable is built right into the camera so it literally plugs directly in. Then, you can use the Flip software, FlipShare, to edit and watch your movies (you and also import into iPhoto or iMovie). Since I don’t qualify for any graduation, Mother’s Day or Father’s Day gifts, I decided I had to make up my own Katie Day and buy myself the MinoHD, Flip Video’s High Definition camera. It takes a pretty decent shot, has great sound and is ultra portable.
I also recommend getting the $14.99 tripod for the Flip; it makes life a bit easier and it makes your videos look much better (and stable!). You can see the Flip in action here when I recorded Seabass outside of our South Burlington location doing a TimBuk2 Review.
