Compelled to complain about this product.1
This "toy" costs £80!
1.3 Megapixels is not even a usable image in this day and age.

Anyone reading that statement may think that I should give the product a little slack, as it is a "kids" toy.
It has an adult price tag, so I'm going to treat it as such, and compare it with similarly priced camera products.

If the product was £20 I'd give it the benefit of the doubt.
£20 for rubbish photos, but it's giving my little girl hours of enjoyment.
That is fair enough: you can't put a price on your child's happiness.
But £80 for rubbish photos?

This camera offers an Interpolated 1.3 megapixel camera.
- You can get an adult's 7 megapixel camera for the same price with movie playback. 5 megapixel for £50. (Check amazon for yourself)

The camera also comes with 8MB worth of memory. Yep eight whole megabytes. By today's memory to price conversion that is about - if we're being generous - quarter of a penny worth of memory.

The mark-up on this product is extrordinary. It must be at least 10 times what it costs to produce.
Even selling this product for £40 would give Fisher Price a significant profit on every unit sold.

I'd recommend buying your child a cheap adult's camera and paint it pink.
If they smash it; just buy another. Smash that? Buy a third. Still cheaper... ...and better photos.

Kid Touch Digital Camera - Pink4
It's great to have a camera that is this tough. My daughter plays with hers all the time and just dumps it on the floor with the rest of her toys but it doesn't matter. It is easy to use even for a 3 year old. The LED screen is too small really but that's its only fault.

Much better than expected--makes a great gift!4
It is tough, easy to use, and actually looks much cooler than in the photo on Amazon. We actually like the looks of this model much better than the other, and it's cheaper.

It looks like Fisher Price must have updated the camera since originally listing it here because the colours on it are bolder and more fun.

As far as functionality, it is easy to use, though I wish it were easier to replace the batteries--you have to unscrew the hatch to put in the AA's. However, that does make it sturdier and eliminates the chance that the kids might accidentally remove the batteries or have them come out if it were dropped. It is certainly rugged!

The quality of the photos is as good as we expected. They are not pro quality, and not as good as 'adult' digital cameras, but what do you expect at this price. The photos are good enough to print 4x6's and for the kids to view on the computer.

Bottom line: this is a rugged, easy to use toy that let's the kids feel a part of the digital world.
