Not bad for a kids camera!
I bought this camera for my three year old nieces just before christmas. They don't take fascinating photos with it but they do take a lot of photos! When I bought the camera I wasn't expecting the quality to be like an adults camera so I wasn't disappointed. To be honest they have just as much fun on the games and other things but they do like looking back at there photos and showing them to everyone, even if its just a picture of some grass!
Fun fun fun in the sun!
I bought this camera for my 4year old daughter just before our summer holiday to Greece. I was not sure that a digital camera for children would be very good in terms of design and picture quality, but I was proven wrong in a number of way. The Kidizoom has many great features, which kept my daughter occupied for hours. She loved editing her photos with frames and stamps, which mainly made her mother and me look silly. She said it made her feel really grown up. I think the design of this camera is very good, with chunky handles that my daughter could grip onto easily. Also the double viewfinder helped her to locate exactly what she wanted in her shot.
Overall I would say this camera is a good present for children over 3, it is not too expensive and has a funky and modern design unlike some other examples I found in shops. I would definitely buy more products from VTech.
Terrible picture quality. Just buy a real camera!
My five year old daughter is a dab hand at taking photos with our camera and mobile phone. She was very keen on a camera of her own for Christmas and so we picked the Kidizoom and are ever so disappointed with it.
The picture quality is just appalling. Shots are all blurred and tiled. We tried the camera out ourselves but fared no better than our daughter. The cheapest of disposable cameras takes a better picture than this. We have never considered it worth while printing a picture and our daughter has lost interest in the camera.
We contacted V Tech to complain about it and (after two e-mails)they wrote back and said "the camera is not intended to provide the same quality pictures as a commercial digital camera". It is rated at .3 megapixels compared to 5.0 - 8.0 on an adult camera. The point of this camera is its durability. To be fair, V-Tech did offer that we could return the product and obtain credit against another VTech toy.
The price of this camera wasn't that of a cheap junky toy. We expected this camera to actually take photos worth having. Would it cost VTech so much extra to manufacture this camera in such a way that it could take a proper photograph?
And a final minor gripe, although it is called "kidizoom" it has no zoom feature.
A friend's child had a Fisher Price kids camera and its photos are equally poor, so the message has to be to buy the child a real camera when they are old enough not to drop it!
