Spotted after Chelsea FC regained the Premier League title from Manchester United. Striker Didier Drogba got his black Flip Ultra out to film the celebrations. Looks like the Ultra HD version to me!
See what happens when a Flip Fan attaches their Flip Mino HD onto a kite! Ok so it’s unsteady but what struck me was the level of detail in the snowscape and the excellent exposure for an auto camera.
Being so light (the Mino is just 4.1 oz) and inexpensive means people are willing to put their Flips in unusual places to get some winning shots. You can see the potential for fixing it on your light aircraft, glider or sailing mast should you be mad enough.
I'm a TV Director/Cameraman by profession making Reality and Entertainment TV for channels like BBC1, Channel 4 and MTV. I often self-shoot entire broadcast TV shows myself on high end cameras.
I first bought a Flip camera 2 years ago and it just clicked. I use my Flip Video for all my home, Web and holiday videos. The Flip is economic, shoots high quality footage and is light to carry. Of course there are bigger, more expensive options but as the saying goes: "The best camera in the world is the one you have with you".
Got a question about the Flip? Need help deciding which model to buy? I respond to every question I'm sent!
