Mind-boggling deal on Creative Vado HD camcorder ($130 @ Amazon)

If you’re familiar with the Flip line of camcorders, the Vado is Creative’s answer to the Flip. The Vado HD bests Flip’s Mino HD in a couple of key areas. It has an HDMI output and comes with an HDMI cable for easy connection to an HDTV; the Mino HD does not have HDMI. It also doubles the storage of the Mino HD from 4GB to 8GB giving you two hours at 720p resolution. I bought one of these camcorders just before Christmas, and I have been really impressed with it. It takes fantastic video for the price.

Chris Pirillo wrote a roundup of the three hottest cameras in this space: the Mino HD, the Kodak Zi6, and the Vado HD. He favored the Vado over the others.

This week’s upcoming episode of raddevon video was shot with the camcorder. That will be released on Friday, but, until then, there are video samples available elsewhere.
