First I will admit that my 4yo daughter loves this camera. The smile on her face while she's taking pictures is worth the price to me. But seriously, this camera is a piece of junk. The picture quality is so bad. I just don't understand it. It's like Fisher Price figured "hey, it's for kids, so why bother making it decent". Shame on them and shame on all those who go along with it posting comments like "what do you want for a kids camera".

I don't have unrealistic expectations and am not expecting a kids camera to take the same quality photographs as my Nikon D200. I expect less when I pay less. But this thing isn't that cheap. For nearly 1/2 the price you can get a Kodak with 5mp and zoom that will take much, much,...much better pictures. So where's the extra cost coming from? Don't tell me the durable camera body. Really folks, this is a $10 digital camera in a $90 plastic and rubber case.

My five year old loves to take pictures with our "grownup" camera and, amazingly, sometimes the pictures come out really well. Because of that, her grandmother bought her this camera since it seemed like it would be easier to use and more durable. You could probably drop this thing from the Space Shuttle and it would survive the impact, but it produces such awful pictures that it's not worth saving any of the photos taken with it.

Of course the kids love this camera because they don't know any better and it is, admittedly, a lot of fun to play around with but it is honestly one of the most disappointing toys I have ever seen. I would hate to reward Fisher Price for producing something that, while fun, is such a piece of junk otherwise.

My daughter received this camera for her fifth birthday and loves it. At her party, all the other kids were clamoring to use it. It is colorful, easy to hold, and makes fun sounds with each function. The resolution of the photos is low, but most of these photos aren't keepers anyway (especially the ones of me at the computer in my pajamas). It is very sturdy and easy to use and understand. According to my research, this seems to be the best "kids" camera currently on the market.

I was quite disappointed when testing the camera prior to giving it to my four-year old daughter. The picture quality is terrible. I don't think we will be keeping many of the 480x640 pixel, grainy images. However, my daughter absolutely loves the camera; it has become her favorite toy and she loves taking pictures of everything! She isn't a critic of the quality, so maybe I shouldn't be, either.

We looked everywhere for this camera for my son last year for Christmas. We finally found one, but I wish we hadn't. It is a nice concept. I like the way it is built for kids with a double eye viewfinder and it is durable, but the picture quality is terrible. There is no reason why Fisher Price couldn't have made the camera to take decent pictures. These aren't even worth having printed. I wish we would have bought a regular digital camera instead. At least my son would have pictures to show and be proud of. Definitely not worth the [...] we paid for it!

My 4yr old daughter was set up for this toy. She was using everything she could get her hands on as a pretend camera including toy cell phones and anything that was remotely rectangular box shaped. When she opened this camera she was beyond excited. She used it at her own party and had the memory full within 15 minutes.

The Kid tough digital camera will store about 60 or so images at the default resolution. We haven't transferred any images to a pc yet, but on the screen they look poor. Maybe worse than the typical cell phone camera. That's ok though as that is not the main benefit of the camera anyway.

For the kids here's the deal. . .you have a viewfinder that you can keep both eyes open with, it makes a real shutter sound and makes an actual picture that you can review on the LCD screen. They don't care about the quality of the photos.

For the parent it is a great transition into early photography training, and using a PC. Digital is great. . .I wasn't allowed to use a camera until much later in life because of the costs of film.

It IS tough and seems to be able to hold up to my kid anyway. If your child has a bent toward cameras and taking photos this is a great toy.

My 6yr. old daughter was so excited to get her first real camera. She was ecstatic when she began to use it. However, she was smart enough to realize that the picture quality totally stunk! Yes, she got to push the buttons on her own and take her own shots, but she also wanted them on the computer to look at. The pictures were horrible. This would be more suitable if she was three and didn't understand that the pictures go somewhere after the camera. It's a lot of money to pay for just another "play" camera. The camera has definitely held up well and still works, but it is definitely not close to a real camera.

Do not waste your money. Sure, my daughter who is three was so excited to get her own cam and so was I until I looked at the pics. There is no reason why they at least cant be viewable. There is basically no point in even looking at the pics since you cant even make out any of them. Yes, the quality is that bad. This thing was not cheap and I just dont get it. She wanted to see her pics later and I showed them to her and her smile turned into a frown and she just kept asking to see her pics and I kept telling her over and over there they are!!!! She thought I had lost my mind. My cam phone takes pics 100 times better than this. Look if your kids are this age just give them one of your old digitals. My daughter has never dropped mine and if she does I dont really care since its my old cam. Otherwise go out and buy them a ton of those cheap disposables or a regualar digital one for half the price. Trust me on this one!

This camera is my 4 year old daughter's favorite thing to play with right now. It takes terrible pictures but she doesn't care. She absolutely loves running around and snapping pictures of everything she can find. It is very easy to use and she doesn't need our help at all. The picture quality is similar to a camera phone. You can certainly see what it's a picture of but they aren't framable quality. I would definitely recommend this camera because it is so much fun for kids.

I bought this for my almost 4 year old daughter. She loves taking pictures with our camera and I wanted her to have one of her own. It is very easy to use and I like that she can hold the camera and push the button with ease. If your child likes taking pictures (of everything and anything) I recommend this camera. A little pricey but worth it.
