Customer Reviews

It made my daughter happy
After seeing this advertised I thought great idea, my daughter is two and is always trying to take photos with my digital camera. From the other negative reviews written here you'd think it was awful, but my daughter has never put it down. To see her little face when she is taking the photos is priceless. For the money I think it is worth it. Yes, the photo quality is not fantastic and the lens is not quite aligned but, hey, she's not quite David Bailey yet!

Avoid at all costs
My four year old son has just received this camera for Christmas. I thought what a great idea, a child friendly camera to get him interested photography.
Well, to say I was disappointed is an understatement.

The build quality seems very good, it has lasted so far and my son is heavy handed. The image quality is completely useless, at first I thought it might just be a poor lcd screen. The lcd screen is awful but the image quality is just as bad. He does enjoy using it but always deletes the images as they look rubbish.

I would rather advise to buy an older digital camera than this, even something from four or five years ago would give better results.

Great toy if you use your imagination
OK, I was sceptical buying this as I read the reviews before hand - and to be fair they are all relatively accurate.

Camera itself is well built as I'd expect from Fisher Price. The buttons are nicely placed and easy to use. The viewing screen is very poor, but it does the job. Its hard to see images on playback when the flash has operated as everything tends to turn 'white' if taken too close. The camera makes nice little noises and does everything it needs to for a child. The 2 eyed view is also decent enough to use. I havent bothered with a SD card as you can easily delete pictures and clear the memory very easily. No issues with camera battery use either.

I bought a blue one (£15 less than the same pink version) for my little girl (my son is following behind and hes not into pink it would seem LOL!) for £45 which does seem alot of money for a childs camera, however if I buy a cheap better picture quality camera I dont think it would last the pace so readily.

At the end of the day its a toy pretending to be a camera, but when you put it in the hands of a child its a great to see them taking pictures of the ceiling, their feet, chopping heads of etc. - I'm sure they wont win any awards with the pictures they take, but its more of learning experience as you can show them how to use it properly, how to download onto the PC, manipulate their pics, make things with what they take i.e. its about we as adults also using our imagination to make the toy the best it can be.

I think its been a great buy for a whole learning process, not as someone earlier mentioned to produce results ala David Bailey from a 3 yr old. I'm 37 and still cant do that LOL!!

I have an Olympus 510 which is low end dSLR, so I do appreciate what photography is about. A child should have fun with this camera, but only you can make it 'really fun' for them to use.
