The iPhone may have gained its own camcorder, but that doesn’t mean the mini camcorder market is dying. There are many people who rather spend $200-300 on a HD new camcorder rather than locking themselves in a multiple year contract with AT&T. There are plenty of cool mini camcorders available that give you decent video quality and more bang for you buck than your iPhone. If you are looking for a high quality mini camcorder for the road, here are 4 mini camcorders you should try:

Flip SlideHD Camcorder: the latest generation Flip camcorder that can take HD 720p (1280 x 720) at 30 frames per seconds. It lets you shoot and show your videos to others on your camcorder’s screen.
