    I have the HD ultra flip. Before I ordered this on Amazon I was fortunate to get to play with various tripods at a store display and talk to a sales person who showed me that, while some of the cheaper ones were just fine in a pinch or if you wish to save some cash, this model required less "work" in getting the flip to be positioned correctly for shooting. Some of the others required a bit more adjustment to get it to hold the weight of the flip correctly and be stable.

    That said, if you are pinching pennies...you can search for cheaper tripods on Amazon that can work fine...they just require a bit more adjusting and fiddling with the legs.

    If you ever plan to be in a shot at a family gathering, during a spontaneous funny scene, to document the mutual admiration between your dog and you, or your kids and you, or your spouse and you...let's face facts, you need a tripod so you can walk away from the camcorder and be in the scene. And the legs allow you to get your camera ready to go just about anywhere, even if you need to do some tripod leg bends.

    It's made for the Flip so it works great with it, in my opinion...even after I played with a few others to convince myself prior to ordering.

    It is great for those moments when you have no one to hold the camera. I used it during Christmas while my husband was deployed. Since our daughter was still a little to young to open presents by herself, she need my help to open the Christmas presents. So I put the flip video camera on the and helped her open presents, and then I was able send the videos to my husband was deployed in Iraq.

    This tripod does the trick. Because it is flexible, yet sturdy, pictures and videos can be taken from multiple angles. My new husband and I used it on our honeymoon and were thrilled not to have to ask people to snap our photo every time we wanted our picture taken. Great deal.

    This is a little goofy looking but fun anyway. It isn't very big but is sturdy so you don't have to worry about it tipping over, plus the flip I use it with is not that heavy. The legs are plenty strong and will adjust to grasp anything it can wrap around. Definitely a handy little deal for videoing yourself or some other group picture like a discussion or something. Glad I bought it and happy that it met my need and expectations.

    I got this item with the camcorder for my birthday. It was the best birthday I ever had. The mini tripod is a nifty gadget for all flip camcorders. It keeps the image still and you can do things without holding it. The only problem is you cannot back up or see very much space without a cameraman. I do think this would be very helpful for people making movies or important videos.
