Summary

Relatively inexpensive video camcorders like the Flip Mino provide the opportunity for faculty to film in the classroom. In this video I look at three video camcorders (the Creative Labs Vado HD 720p, Flip Mino and Kodak Zi6) and suggest which device is best to use. I also cover some of tripod options to consider.

Rick Salisbury (IDD) has also put together some recommendations for filming with the Flip.
