Conclusion

The Flip UltraHD (MSRP $199.99) provides the same easy user experience that is the standard of all Flip camcorders. Its lack of manual controls, menus, or special settings make it a very simple product to use and learn. The Flip UltraHD’s improved button design even makes it easier to handle than other Flip models, like the Flip Mino and MinoHD. If what you’re looking for is plain, old simplicity—the Flip UltraHD is your pleasure.

Deciding between the Flip UltraHD and Flip MinoHD probably won’t be too difficult for most people. If you want lighter and more compact, go with the MinoHD. If the extra storage space and improved video quality intrigue you, the UltraHD is yours. There isn’t too much else that sets these camcorders apart.

The real question you need to ask yourself is whether or not the Flip UltraHD is too simple for your needs. Are there enough controls and features to keep you satisfied while you’re shooting? Are you going to want extra options or settings, like what’s available on the Sony MHS-CM1? Uploading video to YouTube with the Flip UltraHD is an easy, seamless experience. If that is as far as you’re planning to go with your camcorder, then it is probably the best choice for you. However, if you’re looking for just a little more versatility and features, there are other camcorders out there that can fit the bill.

    Canon Vixia HF G10

    With the Vixia HF G10 ($1499 MSRP), Canon's latest flagship camcorder, the company decided to use a completely different image sensor with a smaller amount of pixels.

    Panasonic HDC-TM900

    The Panasonic HDC-TM900 is the successor to the lauded HDC-TM700, our pick for Camcorder of the Year in 2010. The TM900 offers the same fantastic video performance as its predecessor, particularly with its widely-praised 1080/60p mode, but Panasonic didn't improve on much else. Read full 5-part review

    Panasonic HC-X900M

    The HC-X900M is the replacement for last year's HDC-TM900 flagship HD camcorder from Panasonic, but if you're looking for hot new features or exciting updates then you should prepare to be disappointed. Other than a few design alterations and some slight tweaks to the lens and sensor, the HC-X900 is identical to its predecessor. Read full 5-part review
