Flip Video Ultra Series 120 Minutes Camcorder, Black - U1120B - Buy.com. No I am not talking about the Flip Video Camera you can buy cheap now at Buy.com. Normally, $149, these little guys store over an hour of high quality video, and can now be had for a lot less. I have one in my drawer that I never use anymore, because my new Droid, in addition to replacing my GPS and my still digital camera, is now my principal video camera. In the film camera days, I had a fully functioning Color darkroom, and processed my own E-6 slides, and made great big 16 X 20 Cibachrome prints. I dabbled in black and white as well. However, I now shoot the good stuff with a Canon 40D, which uses all of my old expensive lenses, and weighs, with my lenses, enough that a shooting becomes an expedition. However, point and shoot is now neatly contained in my little Droid, which takes video on 16 GB micro SD cards that can be replaced by taking off the back cover. High quality video in the phone? Check. You can't do that with the iPhone. Remove the back cover and add as much storage as you want? Check. You can't do that with the iPhone. Remover the back cover and add a battery for long video shoots? Check. You can't do that with the iPhone. Pointing out the deficiencies in the iPhone? Priceless.
