FLIP Camcorders

Van Wylen Library recently purchased four new Flip UltraHD video cameras, which are available for checkout at the Media Services desk on the second floor. These hand-sized camcorders digitally record up to two hours of video with the push of a button. Any member of the Hope community can use one of these camcorders, though they are intended primarily for student academic projects. The camcorders can be checked out for three days at a time and have a $5 per day overdue fine for late returns. The cameras are available on a first come, first served basis, and they cannot be reserved.

Flip camcorders come with pre-installed Flip software that easily allows you to edit your video as needed after recording. For a demonstration of how to use the camera and software, check out the video below. TechLab students are also available to help during regular TechLab hours.
