VTech Kidizoom Action Cam 180

We are very happy with this kids camera. My daughter is 6 and loves going on adventures and taking pictures. This winter she is going to be going on a big trip and we wanted something she could bring with.Went ahead and got this now because then she is use to it and if it was going to have problems we would know.The picture resolution isn't the best, but it's better than my old cell phone did. :DMy daughter is VERY happy with it. She can go in and delete pictures she didn't like right away, knows how to add frames to the pictures already, and enjoys flipping through what shes taken. Wasn't too fond of the games, but we didn't get it for the games anyways.She is still getting use to not moving a ton while she takes pictures, but has already filled up the storage once a day. (Yup, about 600 pictures a day for the last few days) transfering them to my computer was super easy, and was able to delete them from the camera right after I transfered them.We haven't tried the waterproof case yet so if we have trouble with it later on I will update.I have absolutely no complaints with this camera. It is very kid friendly and I can't wait to see what she does with it from here on out.I've attached a few pictures my daughter took so you can see the quality of the pics. One of them is blurry, this is because she couldn't stop jumping while taking it. (She is autistic and holding still can be a challenge, but this is helping her learn to do so!)

Picture quality is surprisingly good, durability is great, the waterproof case got a few small drops in it and/or clouded up after over an hour of use in and out of water on a super hot, sunny day. But otherwise, I couldn't be happier.I'm noticing some purchasers are having problems finding a working memory card. I was lucky to have accidentally bought a microSDHC and microSDXC at the same time, so I noticed that the microSDHC formatted with no problem while the microSDXC wouldn't format at all. It's my assumption that the newer microSDXC is not backwards compatible with this camera model. We found that the 32GB microSDHC was beyond adequate for our needs. We played with the camera for about three hours, the battery held up wonderfully, and apart from the case being just a little temperamental in hot conditions in and out of water, we are thrilled with the quality of the images and the fun--especially for this price.

This camera actually has some fun features. For my 4 year olds it was a good choice in the sense that it isn’t fragile and it does take pictures and videos. However, I quickly became very frustrated by the games which turned out to be the only thing my kids wanted to use after they discovered it. There is no way to disable the games. We try to avoid screen time. I was going to return them but my kids were devastated, so I relented and even bought sd cards so the memory wouldn’t fill up so fast. Today we used them in the pool for the first time and the “waterproof” cases immediately filled with water. If I’d been smart I would have tried it empty in the sink first. Neither camera is working now. Im outside the return window ☹️ I have not yet checked to see if there’s a way to contact the manufacturer directly. Edit: I’m upgrading this to four stars because I believe in being fair and actually I was a moron and left the cords on when I put the cameras in the cases. Do not do this!!!!!!!!

Best purchase ever! Ideal for children 3 - 9 years old. I got one for my daughter when she because she always wanted my phone to take pictures. She constantly uses her camera now, so I got this one for my son. He loves it! Great camera for little kids. The quality is not the greatest unless you stand still, but for young kids this is perfect. They love making movies and taking pictures. They also like the games. I have them take these cameras along when we travel. They take pictures in the pool (most definitely water proof!), and when looking around parks. It is also a great way to interest kids in museums, taking hikes, and going to gardens. They love taking their own pictures. I can then download them to my computer and delete the pictures off the camera so they can take more.

My 4 year old son hasn't stopped playing with this since we bought it months ago. The battery lasts a long time and so far he hasn't broken it, though he has dropped it on more than one occasion, so it seems pretty durable. The pictures are very poor quality, so probably not even worth printing (I haven't tried), but it doesn't stop him from having a great time taking pictures and making "movies". I kind of wish they hadn't put games on it, really he's 4, he doesn't need to play video games, but I will say he does like them on the occasions we let him play them. Also we did try the waterproof case in shallow water and it didn't leak and the bike attachment was easy to add to his bike.

We bought this for our 9 year old who is really into making stop-motion animation. We thought it would be cool because he could position camera angles and clip it on his desk. We bought it specifically for this feature. You CAN do stop motion with it but it cannot be edited in any way, so if you make a mistake you can't back up and are stuck with it. Weak sauce. Battery power isn't particularly good in our experience. With that being said, it does take decent pics for a kids camera and is quite durable.
