So I got my very own Flip Mino HD video camera this morning for Christmas. Here’s my very first HD video for you to enjoy. So far, it’s beautiful and true 720p footage. I will experiment tomorrow with my Flip Ultra as well as my Flip Mino HD side by side so we can see the difference.
Merry Christmas everyone… and my 3g iPhone is on its way! SO EXCITED!
Make sure you click on “View in HD” in order to see full HD footage.
Well it’s been an interesting week for technology news and Google’s YouTube definitely topped the cake. YouTube, the world’s largest video sharing site, has officially gone HD.
According to Techcrunch, “After teasing us for a year with the option to watch “higher quality” videos that weren’t quite high-def, it appears that YouTube is making the switch to HD, at least for some videos that have been uploaded in that quality. Earlier this month, there were reports of YouTube testing this feature, but this morning it seems to be more widespread. (This comes after YouTube adopted a widescreen format for all of its videos last week).”
Bravo to YouTube for doing this. Some bloggers (just recently today) have even gone so far to say the quality of the 720p videos on YouTube look better than Vimeo’s HD service. Wow.
This just goes to show that Santa needs to bring me my new Flip Mino HD now!
