At Nile Cruises 4u we’ve just upgraded to the Flip Mino HD Digital Camera and this video shows the set up that we use to create our Nile Cruise Podcast.

I mentioned in an earlier post how brilliant the Flip Digital Video Camera is.  Well a week or two ago I re-sold our original Flip Mino Digital Video camera on Amazon.co.uk for almost the same price as we had bought it for a few months earlier.

We sold it using the Amazon “Sell Yours” facility which is just brilliant.  In fact I bought the original Flip Mino from the proceeds of selling various books I had.  After I had sold about 15 books I had enough to buy the Flip Mino, which I was really pleased with.

But…almost as soon as I’d bought it I found out that Flip were just bringing out a High Definition version.  I then saw some of the results of the HD version and realised that I just had to have one.  So, after selling the original Flip Mino and a few more books I had enough to buy the new High Definition version.

And I’m really chuffed with it.

Here is a first attempt at using it for the blog.  It’s just a quick video I made describing the equipment I use to create the Nile Cruise Podcast.

It’s a brilliant piece of kit and as it’s the size of a mobile phone its’ something you can carry around with you in your pocket to make sure you dont’ miss videoing anything that catches your eye.

I bought mine to be able to take with me on our various trips so that I could record footage to add to the Nile Cruise website and here on the blog and also to start a “Nile Cruise Video Offer Of The Week” were one of us appears here on the blog in a weekly video telling readers about the best Nile Cruise deals we have available.

Well, I havent’ quite started the “Nile Cruise Video Offer Of The Week“, but I have just bought the new Flip HD (High Definition) Digital Video Camera, which I’m dying to use.

I read about the new Flip HD camera almost as soon as I had bought the Flip Mino but it wasnt’ available here in the UK till last month. So what I did was “resell” my Flip Mino on Amazon.co.uk for a great price and added the rest to it and ordered the new High Definition version

I’ve already seen some great results online from others who have been using the new HD version, (see Robert Scoble’s Blog) and I cant’ wait to get started using mine.

As soon as I receive it I’m going to definitely start the “Nile Cruise Video Offer Of The Week” feature so watch out…
