I bought this for my dd's 6th birthday - I set it so that it only took a few pictures, that were supposed to be Higher Resolution. Seems to have worked fine - I didnt' download the enclosed software - as many of the other reviews (blue camera) mentioned problems with the software either crashing their computer or not working properly. For 4-6 yo's - it seems to be a fine camera - but any older - get a cheap Fuji digital and let them have a flash, and decent pictures.

I was debating between a film camera and an inexpensive digital camera for my toddler thinking that the wait time for film to be developed would make the camera less fun. But this digital camera doesn't have a screen on the back where you can show your child the picture they just took - an immeditate gratification thing. I had to go to other websites to see other views of this camera to find this out.

My kids LOVE using the camera.
We were thrilled at the comcept of a kids digital Camera.
I would give THIS product a 0 or half star rating if I could.
The pictures absolutly SUCK!!!!!
And It is a horrible painful process to try and upload them on the computer!!!!!!
We didnt even try the software as the pictures were so crappy!!!
I hope to find a better digital camera for my kids. They keep wanting to use their camera.

I just spent the first 3 hours with my son and his new B-day present. I still can't get this thing to work, what a piece of crap. low density, high density high resolution low resolution. how bout just letting a kid click a shutter and have a picture. and forget trying to get the pictures on your computer. I'll be heading back to the store for a refund.

I purchased two of these for my daughters. I ended upsending them both back after they stopped working. To say they stopped working is being polite as they did not workworth beans in the first place. The pictures are bad and look like your are taking them through a fishbowl. This product should be removed from the market.

I give this camera an educational value of three stars because my daughter learned that sometimes you really do get what you pay for. She's leaving for a summer camp tomorrow, and was torn between a disposable camera and this hunk of plastic. She made what her mother and I believed to be a wise choice at the time and went with the digital camera - I've used four with GREAT success and thought, "this should be a breeze". Oh my, was I wrong.
1 - No instruction manual, but I did find one on the internet.
2 - Camera won't take a picture. I didn't loose them, they weren't out of focus, and the resolution wasn't bad. I couldn't freakin' take a sigle picture.
3 - It's about as brittle as a potato chip shaved into halves. IF you get one to work, carry a pillow underneath it at all times.

If my message and intent is lost in the sarcasm listed above, let me make this perfectly clear - DO NOT allow your kids, wives, husbands, grandparents, or friends to waste their money on this thing. If you want to get your child their first camera, keep getting them the regular disposable type until they are trustworthy enough to dump some real money into a decent digital camera.

I bought 2 of these for my kids and it takes the worst pictures EVER!!!! Don't waste your money. We ended up giving them our first digital camera from 5 years ago and it works 100x better.

We bought this camera for our daughter for Christmas so she could learn how to use a digital camera. Bad mistake. The pictures turned out just awful. She used it once or twice, now it is another dust catcher on the desk.

My son used this camera for one day. It was the biggest waste of money. You are better off buying a disposable camera and getting the pictures put on a cd for your child to edit.

My son received this for his birthday and was very excited at first. However, with no screen on the camera we didn't know what he was getting pictures of. Also, the different settings for high/low density and resolution were very confusing, and we couldn't figure out what setting we were on or how many more pictures we could take. When we downloaded his pictures we discovered most of the pictures had somehow been erased! After a while the camera stopped working altogether. We did return this for a refund. Don't waste your money or time on this "camera"!
