One more off the christmas list

[ssim]

So my sister shows up yesterday all excited. She had been out shopping and had managed to strike one more person off her Christmas list. She bought a digital camera. I was really perplexed as I usually get roped into helping anyone in the family when it comes time buying anything photographically.

So she hands me this thing and asks me for my opinion. Did I mention it was for one of her granddaughters and made by Fisher Price.

2MP with a built in memory card that says it will hold approx 60 shots. The smallest and crappiest lcd I've seen in my life.

No zoom. A rather rudimentary focus but it did have a built in flash that was good for (are you ready for this) a whole whopping 7 feet.

It does have a slot for an SD card but you have to remove screws to put it in. I guess its in for good. So much for trying a card reader.

Oh, I could just go on forever......

Of course you know, this is all tongue in cheek.:D;):):rolleyes:

Anyone here got the bal**s to walk around town with this round their neck?

Could do with a POTN strap though... :-)

Fisher Price makes cameras?? She could just have bought my old IXUS 300. It's 2mp.

I was looking at the boys version of this for my little one and i thought about it and fared that im better spending the money on a proper camera for him.

What does it retail for?

My wife bought me my first digital camera a few years ago, Fuji Finepix 2.1 MP. $400.

$56 for the pink, $79 for the blue. :) Yep, I think I'll sue.

Maybe the blue one is Full-Frame and comes with 'L' glass?

[SuzyView]

Don't know why. My son, he's 7, wanted the blue one. I already bought him a Canon A530 and he's wanting a toy. Kids. Marketing is everything.

Abby wouldn't go for that in a million years.. I wouldn't even try... but, the baby... Kaed is two and a half that would be about right for her.... did you take any photos with it?.

So when are we going to see Bi-optic technology used in SLR's?
The whole useing 1 eye thing is terriably out dated.

oh I agree!! I mean why shouldn't we have preview screens to hold the camera a foot in front of us... seriously, DSLR's are not up with the times... :p :p :p

A long time ago I had a Fisher Price video camera. It recorded onto regular old audio cassettes.

Isn't that a red "L" line around the box? :-)
