3.0 out of 5 stars Fun Camera, VERY POOR QUALITY FLASH, September 15, 2008

I purchased this camera instead of the "Kid Tough" Fisher Price camera, because my 4 yr old son was having a Donald/Mickey birthday party and I thought it would be fun for him and the kids to run around taking pics of each other especially with the added feature of adding the disney images into the pics. That part was a hit! But quality is a big factor. When the flash is used or the sun is directly on the subject they get washed out, you can barely make out who the person is. Without the flash (if the lighting is descent) the photo quality is actually pretty good. For the price I would have expected a bit better quality even if it is a kids camera, some kids take really good pictures and with this camera, they don't turn out very good because of the flash or direct sun light!
Being able to add Disney characters is a really fun feature and the software has a lot of fun stuff to play with. Bad part is that once you download the pics to the software it deletes them from the camera so the kids can't look at the pics on the camera anymore. I had given my son my old SD card so he could keep all his photos on his camera and my computer wouldn't get bogged down with his pics, but everytime we load the camera to the software it saves them to the computer and deletes them off the camera. This may be something I need to change in the preferences, but it isn't a simple "figure it out" fix as I've been trying.
Over all Fun Camera for kids ***** Five stars, Flash * one star, 4x6 print quality ****.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works MUCH better than I feared it would, May 30, 2009

I've been looking for a camera for my three year old to indulge her interest in photography with and I haven't been satisfied by the reviews for any of the "little kid" cameras to pull the trigger on a purchase until I saw the reviews for this one. I'm very satisfied with my purchase for several reasons.

- She doesn't hold it perfectly still when she takes some of her pictures but it seems to focus pretty well and pretty quickly anyway. Just a little blur in some of the pictures and they're usually the ones where she was moving way too much while taking the picture.

- Substantial enough that you feel like you're holding something, but not so heavy that she can't carry it and use it for awhile. Nice grips on the sides, good button placement.

- Easy to use. She "got it" right away.

- The software is a little slow, but it works pretty well from what I've seen so far.

- Battery consumption is much better than I thought it would be. She's filled the camera three times and carried it all over the place and it's still showing full battery bars.

- The flash, however, is quite bright. It's easy to blow out stuff if the picture is taken too close to the subject of the picture. I covered about half the flash with a piece of black electrical tape and this seems to have helped a lot, YMMV.

Overall, I'm quite pleased and my daughter is over the moon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great camera for kids, January 16, 2009

I agree with the previous review regarding the flash being VERY bright, but as long as the child is not too close to the subject it is not a problem. My daughter, who is 6, just got this for Christmas and she LOVES it. VERY user-friendly, simple, easy to hold, etc. The software that comes with it is fantastic. After trying two other "kids" digital cameras, we think this is the best.
