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!
