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.

purchased this camera for my ten year old granddaughter and she loves it and it isn't complicated so it is easy for her to use.

This camera is terrible. First of all, the batteries last about 5 minutes before you have to change them. The batteries have cost me more than the camera did. Secondly, any shot you take has to be completely still. If the subject is moving even a tiny bit, the whole picture blurs. This is a huge waste of money. I expected more out of a Polaroid.

This camera is simply awful. I bought the camera for my 8-year old and she had fun with it for only a limited time because the batteries needed to be changed constantly....shame on Polaroid for this poorly constructed battery HOG. Makes one not consider any Polaroid products in the future.

I got this camera for my 10 year old son. It is everything I'd hoped and more so far! He loves it, and it's really easy to use. The only negative seems to be that it goes through batteries rather quickly. However, they're easy batteries to buy...AAA. The pictures are decent quality. Overall, very happy!

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.
