The Flip Video Camera. I learned about them at RTNDA. The Flip Video Ultra is the one I got. Just $150 (I need to quit spending my economic stimulus before I get it!) and you can shoot an hour of 640 x 480 video on to 2 Gigs of flash memory. There are no moving parts. No zoom. No traditional hard drive. So the two AA batteries supposedly last for hours. We will see!
So, I put this little video together last night. It was also my first experience with iMovie 08. Imagine my disappointment when iMovie woudln’t import the .avi movie files from the Flip! After much reading online, I downloaded iMovie HD 06 and use that to convert the video files into something iMovie 08 can use, and there you go. Seems like Macs aren’t immune to these types of frustrations!
So here is the movie. Hopefully future projects will be a lot better!
