This might not be the right forum but I want to buy my grandson his first camcorder for Christmas and as it is a minefied I wonderd if any members might offer some pointers. Thanks.

Here’s a very simple You-Tube movie I put together with the camera, its editing software and its supplied music. One of my previous aeroplane group members off for a flight.

I don’t claim to be a whiz, and this was done with no thought or pre-planning – so be kind.

It would seem mr moggys one is a generation ahead of mine 🙁

This is the one I have, films 60 minutes of 720 hd film and takes AA batteries – The new ones look slick, I might have to invest!

Thanks, both!

It comes with a rechargeable pack.
Spare rechargeable packs are not expensive. I keep one in the camera and one spare and have never bought an AA for it

Yes, I thought you might. Nothing to be forced to be kind about. A delightful little film which has pretty much done the job of selling it to me. That and the reviews on Amazon. It seems to be exactly what should be in his Christmas Stocking!:)

Forgot to mention, though you may have guessed. I have one.

He is just 9 and already deftly uses the video camera on the iPhone. Many thanks for that lead.

The Flip HD is a great bit of kit. You don’t say how old the Grandson is, but it is simple to operate, robust, yet turns out high quality video simply, aided by the inbuilt video editing software.
