Side-by-side comparison with the Flip Ultra. This was shot with the Kodak. Not the tighter field of view. The Flip's field of view is equivalent to a 35mm lens; the Zi6's field of view is equivalent to a 50mm.

    I think the side-by-side confirms that the Zi6 does a good job with white balance and saturation in daylight. Not to mention overall crispness. The Flip may be better in low light, though.

  • I was going to buy one of these Zi6 pocket cams & then saw footage when moving it around. Pretty rough!

    Not a fair comparison! Need to see the results when the camera is panning. Also a better sound comparison. (My Flip died after I walked into the ocean with it in my pocket have yet to decide on replacement).

    Is it me, or does the Zi6 have a green cast to it. The Flip seems warmer.

    the Zi6 has very nice video quality. Does it have tripod mount? (I'm think that the Zi6 and my Monopod would be an awersome combination!!!)

    I want to get one of these for my Mom. Perfect "Soccer Mom" camera! I wouldn't mind having one myself just for convenience. A little Sony Vegas filtering and it's good as gold.

    Awesome quality and all but the only thing that bothers me is the zi6 seems to drop frames causing choppy pauses when filming motion...because of that, I decided to go with the Flip MinoHD, the quality is only slightly less.

    Thanks for these comparisons. But what I'd really like to see is a side by side comparison of the Zi6 next to the Mino Flip HD and the new Creative Vado HD. Let's put all these pocket HD cameras together for a test.

    I've had a Flip Ultra for two years. I just bought the Zi6 yesterday. I did update the firmware (YAY to being able to turn off the chimes!) & have learned how to use Sony Vegas Plat 8 to render. BUT...out of curiosity...now that you've had your Kodak for 6 months, which pocketcam do you use the most?

    Zi6 may be equal to Mino HD n video quality, but Zi6 also use standard replaceable batterys (2xAA) Mino don't, (it make it unusabe in a year or less), Zi6 use standard cheap SD memory, (you may travel for weeks and not need to upload to a PC every hour of video records like Mino HD). Zi6 won by far.....
