New Kodak Pocket Flip Style "HD" Camcorder With EXTERNAL MIC JACK $179.00 AND Why You Should Care!

There's a new review out on this new "Flip" style camcorder. "HD" quality in these small devices is nothing new as the FLIP Mino HD has been out for a while now.....I own one and love it:

What is so spectacular about this new Kodak Zi8 is it's the first truly pocket cam with an EXTERNAL Mic Jack (Yes, I know about Aiptek). Up until now, the FLIP style camcorder has RULED the landscape because of it's superior builtin mic quality. However, high quality video requires high quality sound and that's something most of these have a challenge with - the FLIP having the highest quality sound without a built in External Mic Jack.

Why Should You As A Real Estate Professional Care? Well, if you use video in your online marketing or on your website(s), video interviews of local professionals is helpful to the audience base you're trying to build. Here's an example below of Jeremy interviewing Virginia Real Estate Appraiser, Leslie Frantz, on the changes within the Appraisal Industry (Nov 1 2008). While the interview is creative (a good idea), when they sit down and begin talking the sound quality is not, making me almost not want to watch the entire video. This is why a small HD camcorder (good quality) with a built in external mic jack would produce a better quality sounding video that viewers can actually hear well and want to watch all the way through.
