I purchased this camera for my grandaughter for Christmas. This camera is not Kid Friendly and is not easy to use. The LED light is only usefull as a prop. Features are diffucult to use and despite all our efforts all the pictures are VERY DARK and unusable even in well lighted situations. Upon trying to connect this camera to our PC (High End Dell XPS with XP Pro) we discovered that the driver necessary for the camera is not included in the software. MGA refers the purchaser to Arcsoft the software supplier for support. There is no support apparent. Emails to the company produce a response indicating that the driver is not available on the net with a promise to mail it to us. There is no camera support on the software site and only ads for other products. This camera is does not funtion properly and support is poor. Picture taking capability is very bad. Don't waste your money on this product and dissapoint a child as we inadvertantly did.

Please do not disappoint a child with this toy if they are hoping for a working video camera. The video is horrible. Even in a well lit room video and photos are too dark to view. The video camera and still camera are difficult to operate for an adult, much less a child. Makes a great paper weight. Other than that...it serves no purpose.

when i read about this camera, it made it sound like it came with some cords. this camera was regularly $79 on sale for $29. it did not even come with batteries. it's just a plastic wrapper with nothing else. no cords, no batteries, nothing. it was for my granddaughter to take pics of her puppy and she was so disappointed she just cried. unfortunately they threw away the box so i can't return it for a refund. i will never purchase from amazon again.
