Unless you’ve just emerged from a ten year stretch in the Martian branch of the head-up-your-backside correctional facility, you’ll know that Flip camcorders have been a global smash. Operated by just a few buttons, these idiot-proof point-and-shoot moviemakers feature a flip-out USB arm and built-in software that makes uploading, editing and sending high quality vids a doddle.
Proving size isn’t everything (as Mrs Firebox continually assures us) these amazing camcorders produce incredibly vibrant (1280×720) HD video that totally belies their pocket-friendly dimensions.
First up, meet the MinoHD. This 4GB moment-snatcher holds up to 60 minutes of video; ample time to produce an HD classic starring Action Man and the cat. Powered by an internal rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery, making it super-slim, the Mino also boasts touch-sensitive controls and a 1.5” screen. Even cooler, it’s now available in a gleaming chrome effect finish, so as well as looking all liquid Terminator-ish, it allows you to see your reflection and frame yourself whilst you film. Vain, moi?
Next, say ‘loving your work’ to the UltraHD. Thanks to a meaty 8GB memory this big hitter can record up to 2 hours of video, so shooting an HD epic featuring alarming close ups of your left nostril is a doddle. Better still you can review your efforts on the fly via its 2” screen. Powered by a rechargeable AA battery pack the UltraHD is the ideal Flip for wannabe Tarantinos or would-be Winners (well, you never know). You can even hook it up to your telly via HDMI.
Price: £159.99 from Firebox
