4 out of 5 stars My Kidi Loves this   July 26, 2010
T. Wahaid (Nottingham, UK)
My daughter has been asking for a camera for a long time, but the main problem that made me cautious about buying one is that she doesn't have a very good track record when it comes to looking after her toys - always dropping them, leaving them on the floor to be stood on, or forgetting to bring them in for outside. When I saw an advert on TV featuring this Kidizoom camera being chucked about by a toddler, I decided that perhaps this might be good for my daughter.

It came in one of those annoying plastic packets that require scissors to open, and along with the camera, there was also a disk to install software, an A/V cable and a USB cable, and the instructions and warranty .

The camera requires 4 AA batteries, which were included mand already installed - I was relived as the compartments for the batteries (one on either side of the camera) require one of those tiny little cross headed screwdrivers that I know I own but can never find.

Don't worry about the cables and the disk - they're not important until later . And actually, the instructions are not that important either - although clear and well written, the camera itself is so simple, and laid out in such a common sense manner, that my daughter was taking photos and shooting movies within minutes with a minimul amount of help from me .

The design of the camera is very good - the slight rubberising of the outer handles and their curved nature makes this easy to keep a good grip on, and the buttons and dials are large and clear, and don't feel loose or fragile . I particularly liked the spinning dial used to change modes . The camera has two choices for viewing what you are photographing - two little eye holes at the top, or alternatively on the little 1.8" TFT screen on the camera itself.

At 2 Megapixels, this isn't going to set the world alight with brilliant photographs, but actually I found they do come out really clear, and quite detailed. Sure, there are a few blurs where my daughter has tried to capture something that is moving, but overall the photos are good enough for my daughter to be very impressed with them - especially as she can add borders, stamps, and other special effectts. She was very chuffed with her kaleidescope photo of the guinea pigs, and laughed her head off when she managed to put mummy in prison . I'm pleased that the camera has an inbuilt flash, which helps in darker environments. Video shooting was just as easy, with the camera easily picking up movement and recording sound .

The camera has 16mb or internal memory, which I found got full quite quickly as my daughter really enjoyed shooting movies . However, this wasn't a problem, as once the software for the camera was installed on my computer (an easy and painless process) data could be easily trasferred to my PC via the USB cable and stored there, so she never loses her photographs or videos .

There are also some games on the camera - making it great for taking on holiday to keep her amused on otherwise boring game journeys. She loves having her own games console, and particularly enjoyes one of the games that is very similar to dance dance revolution .

Overall, my daughter has been very happy with this camera - and if my daughter is happy, then I'm happy . She's dropped it no end of times, and it shows no signs of wear or tear, barring a small dent in the rubber on one side. Perhaps my one criticism of this camera is that for those families with more than one child, who may wish their children to share a camera, there is no unisex colour scheme .

A great toy for my daughter, decent enough pictures and a sturdy toy . 4 stars



5 out of 5 stars Brilliant concept   July 21, 2010

I bought this as a present for my 4 year old grand daughter. She loves it - the photographs are fun and she is having so much fun with it. Robust, it does everything it says. I couldn't be more pleased with it.


5 out of 5 stars Children's camera   July 10, 2010

Nice and chunky. Easy to use with a little help from an adult. The dual view finder is a brilliant idea for little ones. My daughter got this for her birthday and, as with many toys, the novelty soon wore off but it looks like it will last for years, so, there is plenty of time for her to regain her interest in it.


4 out of 5 stars Indestructable!   June 5, 2010
Marcus Allgood (Jersey)
The camera is easy to use and very strong - it has withstood being thrown and bounced and dropped and fought over(and I even fished it out of the sink recently and it appears to be OK...it was only in the water for a matter of seconds but it might have been disasterous in something not as strong! I WOULDN'T recommend dropping the camera in water on purpose though)
It can take lots of photos without the need for an extra memory card - I have seen up to 800 on it so far and think it might store more than this. The games are good fun and the camera is pretty easy to use by even quite young children. Some three year olds we had over recently found it easy to master within minutes of picking it up.
The photos can be edited and enhanced relatively easily and the quality of the photos is really not too bad. As for the price - well, I think it is well worth the money. It does use up batteries quite quickly but the life of the batteries can be extended by turning off the sound and effects when reviewing pictures.

I purchased this camera for my 5 year old daughter, who absolutely loves it! Very easy to use, a fantastic first camera. The only downfall is it takes 4 AA batteries, she uses the camera every day and the batteries only last about 3 weeks.
