Digital Cameras for Kids - Four Popular Kids Digital Cameras - Including Disney, Little Tikes, VTech and Fisher Price Digital Cameras
Digital Cameras for Kids
When choosing a digital camera for your child, keep in mind several things. First, you need to look for one that is durable. Most children’s digital cameras are designed for those as young as three years old and have a hard, plastic case. They are meant to be dropped and banged around. Some digital cameras that are made for kids are even waterproof.
The print quality of the photos will be low. The digital photos taken with a child’s digital camera are either best viewed on the camera itself, on the television, or on a computer.
VTech Kidizoom Camera
VTech Kidizoom Camera is not only a digital camera but a video camera and a gaming console featuring three built-in games. Your kids might already be familiar with the family digital camera, so you will have to give them one that is comparable, at least in some regards, for them to be interested in using it. The Kidizoom has an LCD screen that is 1.8 inches. Most kids want to see the picture they have just taken. The bigger the LCD screen, the easier it is to view pictures taken with the digital camera. The Kidizoom also features large, colorful buttons, extra faceplates, and a dual viewfinder. It’s also very easy for small hands to grasp. The Kidizoom has 16 MB of internal memory that will hold up to 200 still photos or 5 minutes of video. You can add a SD card to increase its storage capabilities.
