VTech KidiZoom Camera Pix

First given to one of my kids at 4-years-old and became an instant hit. Has a great animation studio and some simple games. Extremely durable. After a couple of years, it took one too many drops and/or spills and finally stopped working at which point we immediately purchased another. Totally worth it. Been a staple toy (tool?) for over 4 years now. Intuitive for the kids and very durable. The only thing I wish it had was a way to mount it to a tripod. When my eldest wanted to make more serious stop motion videos, there was no way to easily secure the camera.

Got this as a big-brother gift for my 3 1/2 yr-old son when our second child was born. When I ordered this camera, the older version was still available but marked as discontinued and this one had no reviews. The old model had great reviews, so I figured going with the new one was a safe bet. My son really enjoys the camera and used it heavily when he first opened it. So the batteries ran out quickly, but I hope as his use levels out then the battery use won't be quite so heavy. He takes pictures of all kinds of things, often moving the camera before the picture is done resulting in blurs or dark pictures. Anyway, he still enjoys it. He especially enjoys watching the video he and daddy took when they were playing together. My impressions: -Batteries are in the handles, which is an efficient use of space and easy to access with a fingernail (no screws). The battery doors open from the side of the handles (not from the bottom like the old model). -Contrary to the Amazon description, my camera did NOT include the 4 AA batteries. -On startup you set language, date, and time. -The buttons and menus are intuitive and the camera is very easy to use. A couple times pushing buttons the press didn't register. -I noticed they moved the "take picture" button to the front compared to the old model that had it on top. The location feels natural when taking pictures. -When taking a picture, you can use the dual-eye view finder or the screen. -After taking a picture, it shows briefly on screen then goes away. You'd go to the playback option in the menu to see it again. -When editing a photo, the original photo is preserved and your edited version is a new, separate photo. -The picture quality is on the lower end and there's no flash, but I think the point is this is a real camera that a little kid can use and is their very own. I think that is plenty cool. If your child is a bit older and taking an interest in photography, then get an inexpensive adult digital camera instead of this one. -The outside is rubbery and seems durable so far. -There's a strap included that you can attach to the camera. -The camera will automatically turn off after a few minutes of being idle. -There are sounds when navigating around the menus, including a cute "spring" sound when the camera can't do what you're asking. When you take a picture, there's a "camera" sound. I turned the volume down a bit because I thought the default was a little loud. -No USB cable is included, but it's supposed to be a standard micro USB which we have plenty of already.

This camera has served my first born, my second born, my third born who lost the caps for the batteries on both sides, and will likely serve my 7 month old daughter when shes old enough. It's a fun little camera. Highly recommend. Perfect for kids

This is a neat camera/toy. I was expecting a simple, kid-friendly camera. I didn't expect any games to be on it. They are fairly simple, like a bunny game that plays like an easier, shorter Frogger, plus like 2-3 other games. Very simple, unremarkable games, but when my son first used this camera, he would play that bunny game often. You're able to apply fun filters to the pics, which I thought was cute. Actually had a bit of fun using them. Of course, as this is a kid's camera that handles a smaller-sized SD card, don't expect quality from these photos. It's simply memories your child is able to take on their own, on an item that that is claimed as their very own. It is bulky, but is still light-weight and easy to grasp in hands of all sizes. My biggest gripe with this camera is the fact there is a significant delay between pressing the button and actually taking a picture. My son cannot yet understand that there's some technological delay, so he continues to press the button, and immediately lose focus of what he was capturing to beam with absolute pride that he took a picture. There are just so many photos of blur, the floor, and other junk not worth keeping because of this. There are a few nice photos that he was able to take, which we will look at. & I have had this for a few months now. I've noticed that my son will periodically bring it out to use (we leave it in a drawer he can easily access). I think it's cute that he will randomly take out his camera to take pictures every now and then. Inserting the SD card was quick, easy, and in a location difficult to accidentally slip out. This is a good product if you want your little one to share in the memory-capturing moments.

This is so fun for my kids. Can take photos and there’s some games and like frames to use on there. Has some memory itself but you can put a memory card in it as well if you want.

子供は大喜びで遊んでますが、電池の蓋が簡単に外れすぎです。小さな子供が遊ぶ物なので、色んなところに多少ぶつけたり、落としたりしても大丈夫な様に出来てないと、すぐ壊れてしまうと思います。

毎日楽しく使ってくれてました。 次の子も同じように使ってます！ 長く使えて、お値段以上

Ne peut évaluer pour l’instant cadeau de. Noel,mais correspond à l’image très belle caméra

My kids love this and it's very children friendly. The design makes it very easy to hold and use

My 3 year old son was so excited to receive this gift on his birthday. He loves to take pictures himself and view it on the camera. Although the picture quality is not great and there tends to be camera shake in many pictures taken by my son, he jus loves clicking pictures and it gives him a lot of satisfaction. He dropped the camera a couple of times but it still worked absolutely fine as it seems to be sturdy. The battery compartment does not have screws and hence, it could be opened by the child easily which could be a drawback. I encourage him to take pictures of puzzles that he has completed and so on which he feels good about..
