Customer Reviews

Good little camera, but...
My parents bought this camera for my six-year old niece, who is autistic and loves to take pictures and videos of herself playing (or have a family member do it) and watch them on the computer. This digital camera is ruggedly built and is ideal for little ones as it can be dropped many times and will still function. There is an attached wrist strap to minimize the likelihood of such accidents. There is a fold-out view screen that shows exactly what is being filmed which is great for kids or anyone else who hates to use the traditional monocular scope. I would definitely buy rechargeable batteries simply because it will be cheaper in the long run (get a battery charger, if you don't have one). The cover for the batteries is attached using screws, so it stays on during any unforeseen drop.

Alas, there is one big detractor. The camera has a slot that accommodates one SD card. This is a great feature as it expands greatly the amount of films that can be recorded and stored on the camera. The problem is that this slot is on the bottom of the camera and the cards can and do readily slip out and get lost. I am ordering the second SD card since this camera was purchased two weekes ago. To me, this seems to be an odd engineering/structural flaw. They design a digital camcorder for kids that can readily handle the abuse children can dish out on something like this, yet they provide a memory card slot that is in the most vulnerable place imaginable. Considering the price and the structrual integrity of the camera this seems to be a gross oversight.

My advice is to buy it for that young photographer/cinematographer in your life, but if you get an SD card for it, put some duct tape or other adhesive over the card slot and spare yourself the grief of looking for a lost SD card and/or the expense of buying new ones.
