Should I buy this cheaper camcorder or a flip ultra/mino!?
Alright so two different options:
http://www.target.com/Aiptek-High-Definition-Digital-Camcorder-Silver/dp/B001GXR03A/ref=sc_pd_gwvub_2_qi
or
http://www.target.com/Flip-Generation-Memory-Digital-Camcorder/dp/B001O94GNS/ref=sc_qi_detailbutton
The first link is a regular camcorder for 100 dollars, the second link is a flip ultra which is smaller for 150 dollars. I cant really tell which camcorder is better in terms of quality (cant understand the features) But in terms of purely video recording, which camcorder is better? (not the compact portableness but the actual quality of the video)
I purchased the Aiptek camera over a year ago and was very disappointing. I would recommend not buying the Aiptek camera as the quality of video is bad, the camera is very easy to break, and you can easily have simple technical difficulties with it. The Flip camera is much better; not just in simplicity but, also is quality. Much much better in quality.
So let me restate this as; buy the Flip! The 50 dollars is nothing compared to the great video you will capture using it.

I would recommend you buying Flip Ultra Camcorder

I have an UltraHD (received as a gift) and like the Flip’s in general, it’s not as good as the Kodak Zi8 or the VadoHD. You may want to check those out first. They have the highest user ratings of all pocket cams currently on the market.
I think the best choice for you is Flip UltraHD Camcorder, 120 Minutes http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00280M1FM?ie=UTF8&tag=digitsy-marina-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00280M1FM
