Amazon has a deal going on right now where if you purchase the Flip MinoHD the Flip Tripod comes for free (just make sure you add it to the cart). As of now the price is $234.99. It shoots HD video and stores up to 60 minutes, which is just like the past iterations of the Flip but in HD

I’ve seen numerous bloggers use the Flip for video blog posts and I’ve decided to do the same. I also want to use this for snowboarding as well. Because it uses flash based memory it would be less likely to break it if I fell hard in the snowboard park or something. In any case, I’ll post impressions of the camera once it comes in next week. I find it funny that for how long I’ve been making Halo videos I’ve never owned a camera but then again I’ve always used a capture card for that.

What do you think? Will you pick up the Flip Mino HD? If you already own one of the other versions is the addition of HD film capture worth it to upgrade?
