Flip UltraHD and the Sanyo Xacti VPC E2 camcorders are presently the best syndication compact video cameras in the market. They both have a similar price range but big divergences when it comes to features. Here is a quick comparison amongst these two models.

Winner: Flip UltraHD Camcorder (120 Minutes) Design: The Flip weighs at 6.1 ounces (4.25 x 2.19 x 1.17 inches) while the Sanyo camcorder weighs at 8.43 ounces (2.77 x 1.59 x 4.39 inches). The Flip is just a little littler than the Sanyo model but the divergences are closely negligible. The UltraHD has a rectangle shape and looks very much like a regular digital camera. The Sanyo one has a more sleek design, with stylish metallic exteriors and smooth curves. Personally, I think that the Sanyo model looks much better. Winner: Draw.

Winner: Sanyo Xacti VPC-E2 Digital Camcorder Still Photo Captures:Both models may capture still images. The manufacturers of the Flip UltraHD camcorder do not state the solution of the still images, but from the quality, I am estimating that they are at regarding 3-4 mega-pixels. The Sanyo camcorder on the other hand takes still images with up to 8 mega-pixels in resolution. It also comes with face acknowledgement and an auto-stabilization mode. Winner: Sanyo Xacti VPC-E2 Digital Camcorder Connectivity: One of the greatest merchandising factor for the Flip camcorder is it is connectivity.

The extra $20 that you compensate may be the best 20 bucks that you will ever spend as it will buy you a large total of further and added features on the Sanyo camcorder. Compared to Flip's tiny 2" display, the Sanyo has a 2.5" rotating LCD display that makes life much having little impact while capturing videos. It is also waterproof and may take videos/photos at up to a depth of 5 feet. Overall Winner: Sanyo Xacti VPC-E2 Digital Camcorder |
