Product Description

From the Manufacturer

You can start shooting the minute you pull the a544 by Polaroid out of the box. That's how easy it is to use the five megapixel camera. It comes complete with point-and-shoot features like a 2.4-inch LCD color screen so you can preview images before you shoot. It even takes video clips. The auto-flash has a red-eye reduction feature that prevents annoying red eyes, and it has an electronic self-timer so you can finally be in that family portrait. The a544 includes a USB cable for PC or Mac connections, and two "AAA" batteries.

I will admit that I didn't research this product thoroughly before I bought it. I wanted a cheap digital camera for my 1st grader and thought the kid cameras were too "babyish" looking for him. I thought he'd like the sleek blue grown-up look. And he did. But between opening it yesterday morning and when he went to bed, we changed the batteries 3 times. Kind of annoying. The camera also got stuck once in some kind of busy loop, and I had to restart it by popping out the batteries. Of course the Polaroid support site is useless for trouble-shooting problems. The pictures were easy enough to download to my Mac and iPhoto. Not sure positively about the picture quality: I'm fairly sure my son got off of auto focus at some point. The viewfinder's picture is somewhat grainy, so it's hard to tell if the resulting picture is a good one or not.

All in all, my son loves this camera and it is easy enough to use. That is all I wanted from it, and that's all I got.

Folks, spend some extra cash and get something decent. I purchased this useless piece of 'tat' to take some hoilday snaps whilst on a visit to the Caribbean. In 5 megapixel mode, the camera can store..wait for it...TWO IMAGES. Utterly, utterly, utterly devoid of purpose. DO NOT BUY.
