Digital camera reviews of Hello Kitty Digital Camera - 3MPDigital camera Review: Best specs, less than impressive performance Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased this unit for my daughter who loves taking pictures, and actually frames them nicely with my own camera. Because all the other "kids cameras" have *aweful* specs. (e.g. 640x480) and even worse reviews (image quality, battery life, etc), this one seemed like the best of the bunch -- a "real camera" she could grow into (not just a toy).
Despite the wonderful specs, I agree with the last reviewer for the most part.
The good:
- Flash
- Self-focusing
- Pretty style and strap
- Built-in rechargable battery last a long time!
- "real camera" functions including a self-timer, white balance and more
- Expandable -- has an SD card
- Decent MegaPix (3 MP)
- Big 2" color display
The bad:
- Even in brigh indoor lighting, subjects are dark and difficult to
site in regular-to-bright indoor lighting.
- Flash does seem to wash images
- Flash defaults to *off* every time the camera is turned on, instead
of remembering the last setting
- Pix generally look blurry, but this could be due to poor handling
of low light
- The GUI to preview and the take pix is very poor, although my 4 YO
daughter did figure it out very quickly
- The "OK" (shutter) button is difficult to press, which causes extra
camera shake when taking pictures.
The fixable:
- take pix in high light conditions to avoid disappointment
- Poor color "bluish hugh" in "auto" setting is poor, but setting it
to "sunlight" setting fixes up most color issues of this type
Sad indeed -- there just may not *be* any good camera choices for young and talented children photographers at this time... just the toy ones that make believe they're usable, but which will fall short of kids' expectations when they see blurry unprintable images.
Digital camera Review: Cool camera but.. Summary: 4 Stars
It is a great looking camera, very light and stylish but the lcd screen is not good at night... so it is better to use at daylight.
Digital camera Review: Good at first, but... Summary: 2 Stars
I quickly found that its resolution was not spectacular and its flash is erratic, at best. The only way to get decent pictures is to depend on natural light, or else it'll be too bright or too dark. Most pictures end up being pixelated at even the highest resolution, and a few months after I started using it, I found I had to reset it each time I wanted to turn it on. Not very reliable, but maybe a good starter camera for someone else.
Digital camera Review: Good little entry camera Summary: 4 Stars
It's a good little digital camera espcially for the price I paid ($39)
My daughter loves it.
Digital camera Review: Great camera! Summary: 4 Stars
I have had this camera for a year and I love it! I am an adult Hello Kitty fan and this camera is not just for kids. It takes beautiful pictures and is very easy to use. The software is very fun. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is because it needs a lot of light to take indoor pictures which can be kind of annoying, but for the price it is a steal!
