 Not bad for a kids camera! May 29, 2008
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
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!

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! May 16, 2008

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!

Both my son (3) and daughter(4 1/2) love using my digital camera and have both taken good pictures, so when I saw this camera I thought they would love it too. i was very wrong, bought them 1 each for christmas and it rarely gets used (unlike my camera and mobile phone camera) As with the other reviews, the LED screen is slow, ok if you are taking a picture of still object. Haven't even attempted to print any off. buy a real camera. Dont waste your money on this.
Excellent for any budding photographer January 14, 2008

We bought this for our daughter for xmas and she has had so much fun with it - i can't rate it highly enough! She took 300 photos on xmas day ( we had to wipe the memory half way through the day to do this) - we had a great laugh looking at the results on the telly. No they aren't top quality but what do you expect from a kid's toy - I would say most young children would be more than happy with the results. It also takes video and you can play games on it too. My daughter enjoys taking pictures of her friends and we take it out when we go for walks and she takes pictures of anything and everything. I would agree that 60 is alot of money and didn't pay that but got it whilst on offer on Amazon for 40. Don't expect an adult camera in kids packaging and I would imagine most children will love this. We have only replaced the batteries once since xmas day and it's been used every day and she has never lost any pictures.
