IN LIGHT OF MY EARLIER POST on the Flip and Kodak Zi8 mini cams, an email from reader Darryl Musick:

I have both the Flip and the Kodak Zi8 cams. I like the external mic of the Kodak but not the jerky zoom. The Flip seems more substantial and just a bit easier to use. One big difference is that the Kodak makes files that are about 30% smaller than the Flip and seems to have better color saturation. Below are links to two videos, the first one was made with the Flip, the second with the Kodak…you can compare the differences. Both used the built-in mics. Beware, they may make you thirsty!

See for yourself.
