Zoom Q3HD is Here! (an awesome flip-style camcorder)
Okay, so this new flip style camcorder has me tingling all over (it’s brand new and highly underrated). This is because by their very nature, flip-style camcorders are supposed to be simple, portable, and cost effective, which is exactly what the Q3HD has achieved. Sure, you can buy the Kodak Zi8 because it has an audio jack or better light correcting technology, and purchase a separate external mic, but you’ll be spending the same amount of money (if not more), and you will be carrying around two devices instead of one.
The original Q3 shot in standard definition (SD), the quality was mediocre, and I still loved it. This new one is high definition, meaning you can achieve 720p at 60 fps or 1080p at 30 fps.
Both Q3 camcorders come with a built-in USB cord.
Side note: Movies are built around scripts not images. The Q3 is unique because it has dual studio-quality condenser mics that can capture every sound from the board room to a concert hall.
For more information on the Q3, read my post on the original Zoom Q3.
