 Your child will love it. September 18, 2008
nice camera,your child will love it. I gave it to my grandson for his 3rd birthday. He runs around taking pictures of everyone's legs since he will not let go of the camera to let us show him how to use it.
One of the best gifts ever... July 23, 2008

I bought this camera after comparing ratings on other children's digital cameras. It's too bad that nobody seems to be putting a kid-proof case onto a better camera; I actually considered buying a used adult model, figuring that the photo quality would be much better for the same money--but then considered that my kids would likely demolish the thing with a single drop.
The VTech was given to my daughter for her 6th birthday a month ago, and has been in her hands almost constantly ever since, while privileged siblings have been allowed short periods of use when she felt particularly generous (they're begging for one of their own in the meantime). To be honest, I suspect she likes the games as much as the camera function, but she still uses the camera very frequently. There are a selection of fun "stamps" that can be added to the photos as they're taken--a favorite is the pig nose.
Battery life is amazing: I outfitted it with rechargeable AA's and have only had to charge them once a week or so. Remember that she has hardly put the thing down!
Ditto what other reviewers have said about the SD card used as the default for storage. Buy one, or (as I did) use the dinky one that came with your own camera--the advantage of low-res is that pics take hardly any disk space.
Considering the low resolution of the photos (big enough for an e-mail but little else) they are surprisingly clear. The flash is very helpful, given my long years of experience with kids taking photos without flash. Videos are fun to take and watch on the camera screen, but pretty bad quality when watched on a TV screen. The AV cable is included, along with a USB cable.
Durability seems excellent; I'm sure it's been dropped a number of times, and the screen is getting scratched somewhat, but otherwise no problems.
We have not yet used the software that came with the camera; thus far she's content to just take photos and then delete them and take more.
Overall, I'd highly recommend this camera, at least until somebody wakes up and decides to make one that will take "real" photos and passable video.
Best Children's Digital Camera July 21, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
My daughter received two digital cameras for her birthday. Both were the two that I had researched and found to be decent. This one and the Fisher Price one. The FP is garbage.. it is difficult to use and the screen resolution is awful! This Vtech one is far more durable and easy to use and takes beautiful pictures by comparison. The FP one the child has to stay absolutely still to take the picture otherwise it blurs, but this one takes pictures of moving objects aswell. Of course it is a childrens camera so it is not pristine quality but it is the best camera for a pre-schooler by far! It also has cute face covers and fun software and camera case. Great gift!

My 3 year old is able to work this camera! It is great and durable and withstanding my 2 year old also. We love the pictures that they capture and display them on the tv. The fun frames spark their imagination and creativity. Just a great camera and toy.
Survived being held under running water! July 10, 2008

My son (he'll be 4 in Aug) has had this camera since Christmas of 2008. He LOVES it. He's always taking pictures and looking at the screen. He's even figured out how to record his voice. He gets such a kick out of that.
A couple of nights ago, I heard the water running. I went downstairs and he was holding the camera under running water. I explained that he can't do this and that the camera is probably broken now. So my husband took the camera apart and we let it dry to see if it could be saved. To our surprise - IT STILL WORKS. We had to let it dry out all night but when my husband put it back together it works just fine!
I wouldn't recommend putting the camera in water (maybe we just got lucky) but I can say that this camera appears to be kid-proof and we are VERY VERY happy with this purchase!
