The editors didn't like
Software could be much better
No light! Not so great for nightlife
Volume changing is too incremented
Regular buttons may be better
Easy to accidentally turn on or off
No option to expand memory
I’d like to thank Flip Video for making this review possible.
Small LCD screen
No HD output.
No mic or earphone jack
Toosimple editing software
Tough to shoot steady video consistently
Poor automatic white balance
No HD playback directly from camcorder
White balance doesnt seem to be that good under fluorescent lights
Frame rate slow for some fast speed recording
Only 4GB of memory
No expansion slot
1 hour of record time and is overly priced.
Small screen. Memory isnt expandable.
No image stabilization. No sound input.
Still no memory card slot or digital still capability
Tiny LCD screen
Composite video output
No removable storage or battery.
Not quite up to the quality of larger cameras
Not up to quality of larger cameras
Can’t expand memory
No HDMI. Only 30fps. 1.5inch screen makes playback annoying. Internal Liion battery gives half as much shoottime as standard Mino. 2x digital zoom results in a picture that's noisier than a Jackson Pollack. Frontside red recording light is still antisteal
Somewhat pricey
No SD/MMC card expansion slot
Rechargeable battery isnt removable or replaceable
Cant output HD to HDTVs.
Needs stabilization and HDMI port.
NONE!
Video tends toward yellow when shot with typical indoor lighting
