The Flip Video Power Adapter is a particularly handy option for travelers and others who are away from their computers for long periods of time.

If you are around your computer and have the USB connection handy then this isn’t really needed. However if you travel a lot, or can’t easily get to your computer port, or just will be out for the day and need to recharge your Flip camcorder part way through, then this might just be the answer you needed.

Doesn’t take long to get a full charge into the camcorder, you can plug your Mino or MinoHD straight into the Flip Video Power Adapter, but will want a battery pack with the Flip or FlipHD.

For those on the go all the time you may find the Essential Kit for the Pure Digital Flip Video UltraHD includes a Car and Wall Charger – Gomadic Brand w/ TipExchange Technology to be even more useful. This will allow you to charge your Flip Video between stops as you are travelling in the car, and then overnight to be ready for first thing in the morning.

This Telephoto Zoom Lens is compatible with all Canon EOS SLR cameras so will be a great addition to your Canon Rebel XS 10.1MP Digital SLR Camera if you are happy with the standard 18-55mm lens supplied with the Rebel.

To help you with framing your distance photo’s the addition of the extra zoom capability will delight you. It’s not the top of the range with zoom speed and doesn’t have automatic image stabilization like some of the more expensive lenses available, but as an interim lens, at a good price, to use and get quite good framing for distance shots it’s quite acceptable.
