4.0 out of 5 stars Good for young kids, January 19, 2008

This review is from: Dora Digital Camera (Electronics)

Both of the other reviews I see on this page are dead on, yet I have to give this camera 4 out of 5 stars. Indeed, it takes horrible pictures, the flash is too bright and often saturates the picture into complete whiteness, you can't zoom at all, you can't turn the flash off, it's hard to delete the pictures in memory. (If your kid is like mine they take the 79 pictures that this camera holds in about 10 minutes).

BUT, my daughter loved this camera. It's got a neck band so she can't drop it unless she tries, and even then I'm prtty sure it would be okay, though I haven't tested this by any means. I can put the pictures on my computer and they look all right there, not great by any stretch of the imagination, but easily good enough for a pree-kindergarten kid to admire. She can see the picture for a moment after she takes it in the preview screen, or go back and look at them later. It makes Dora noises which she loves. And, perhaps best of all, it gets her to stop asking to use my much better camera. We can both take pictures at the same time now and double our fun.

1.0 out of 5 stars really bad camera, September 30, 2009

I was excited to see this camera on clearence at Target for twenty five dollars. Looked great and my child was very happy with the color and design (she likes everything Dora). Got it home, opened the packaging which was really tough. Took about 10-15 minutes putting the batteries in since the base needs to be unscrewed.

Once set up I realized that the picture taking setting were not as easy as my old 2.2MP Kodak DX3500 from 1999, additionally the picture quality was extremely poor, the photos it takes are unusable to make cards or email, they're worse than an old cell phones camera. Very very bad. Even for the price I paid it's going back. I cannot believe it is so expensive on amazon.

I gave my child my old camera which she likes and we can use the photos if she makes cards etc.

4.0 out of 5 stars Dora Digital Camera, April 22, 2009

This review is from: Dora Digital Camera (Electronics)

My Grandaughter is enthralled with Dora (she is 2 years old) and also with cameras, so what is better than a Dora Digital Camera? I googled it and found the one from Memorex. I read the reviews which were not very favorable. But for a 2 year old what would you expect? When she opened the box and saw the talking Dora camera she was thrilled. After putting in the batteries she could not stop taking pictures. They were somewhat grainy, you do have to be pretty close up ( the Zoo pics did not come out) but for her it was and is perfect. She is learning how to take care of a camera, how to hold it steady, how to focus on the picture she wants which was our goal in the first place. Oh, and it is VERY sturdy, she has dropped it numerous times and even spilled a Smoothie on it and it is still working. Hope this review helps. If somebody you know Loves Dora and Cameras it is the perfect answer.
