My daugther has been bugging me for months now for a camera. I didn't expect a whole lot from this camera but it was even worse than I could have imagined. It should be a crime to sell this thing. Pictures were very blurry, grainy, totally unusable. It won't even work in low light condition or indoors for that matter. But when you take photos outside, the light parts of the photo are totally WHITED OUT.

This piece of junk it going back to the store right now. If I could give it less than one star I would!

I had it with 35mm cameras for my daughter. They are just toys and the sadness in her face when the film would get caught inside was not worth it at all. I thought that a digital camera would be the best way to go. She asked for the Barbie digital camera and I thought how bad could it be? WELL! I didn't pay full price which is a good thing but it still amazes me that they put low functional items on the market.

If there isn't natural light in the picture, you may as well forget the picture was taken. The quality of the pictures taken outside weren't bad. They were bright. Anything taken in the house was awful.

Just about any picture I tried to take in the house received two beeps telling me that I couldn't take the picture!

DON'T waste your time and/or money on this camera. I will be looking for a reasonable, "real" digital camera (with a flash) for my daughter to take pictures. Even the cheapest 35mm camera has a flash on the camera!

I bought this camera for my four year old, but I would have been better off with a toy camera instead. The only thing you can take a picture of is a light bulb or fixture. It requires very bright lights to take a picture. It is the worst product I have ever bought.

Don't waste your money on this camera; it is a total waste of currency. I ordered this camera for my daughter's 4th birthday and once you discover that this piece of junk does not work, and as one of the other reviewer's wrote, "the look of disappointment on the child's face is not worth it." The only thing that she was able to take a picture of was the sun (requires very bright light). Please do not put yourself through buying this piece of junk to only have to return it. As I stated above, giving this product one star is too much, this is the worst product on the market.

I bought this for my 5yr old niece when she came to visit me. She was beyond excited. We installed batteries and she walked around taking pictures and loving every moment of it. Then came trying to get the pictures off the camera... the software that came with the camera is awful. I tried installing it on 3 different computers and a laptop and it didn't work on any, and even caused a 'blue screen' on one of them (which is pretty rare with Windows XP in my experience).

I've worked with dozens of digital cameras over the years and never experienced any trouble getting the computer to recognize the device. If your are going to spend $35 on a toy digital camera for your child, I recommend spending a few dollars more and getting an inexpensive 'real' digital camera. The look of dissapointment from the child's face is not worth it.

not user friendly for the kids. The review could have been more informational. This camera is functional, only when there is enough light on the subject and mainly sunlight. Otherwise, the camera does not function. The displays are cryptic and it is hard for the kids to be understand.

In nutshell, the kids will loose interest after some try in using this camera and it will be lying in a corner as a show piece.

Omigod! this is the worst product ever! I got it for my birthday and after having it for one day, ONE DAY!, it broke! Please don't waste your money on this! Spend it on something that will last more than 24 hours!

Do not waste your money on this terrible product. The picture quality (if you can get it to take a pictures) is as lousy as you can get. It will only take a picture in the brightest of light. The software does not load without following complicated directions and even then the camera connects only about 10% of the time. Barbie should be ashamed to have her name on this piece of junk.

Very disappointing. At the time I ordered the camera in October there was nothing but positive feedback. After receiving and trying to use (yet to be able to take a picture) the reviews have turned to the complete oppposte. What happened to the camera? We have put two sets of batteries in the camera and w/i 2 minutes the batteries are drained and no picture has been taken. My next disappointment has come when I try to return a non-working product to Amazon after 30 days and they will only refund me 50% of the cost for a product they sell and does not work. Don't expect my business any longer....

As my title says this camera is a piece of JUNK! My daughter got this item for christmas. Have not used it once because it does not work AT ALL. Biggest waste of money. Please be aware- just go out and spend a little bit more money and get them the real deal.
