What's the age group for this camera

Our grandson is 6, is very bright (reads chapter books with ease), and within minutes was showing us what the camera was able to do without any instruction. Kids todays seem to "take" to electronics. This has delighted him for months now, a really good choice.

I bought it for a 4 year old. There is a little pause between the time he pushes the button to take the picture and when the camera actually takes the picture - so he had to learn to hold the camera still a little longer.

It is truly a great camera. However, my 3 year old still wants to and is able to use my digital camera. LOL

It's really friendly for an 8 y-o kid, specially if you think how fast are children learning how to use this kind of devices. Camera comes with the charger.

I bought it for my 4 year old. Ages 3-8 would be best suited for this drum.

Moderate though not as long as one might wish. The picture quality is a little below what we've come to expect from digital but if you're realistic about it you won't be too dissatisfied. I bought it for a five-year-old, as a first video camera and she had fun with it but as you might expect the idea of taking care of it and not dropping it that I tried to inculcate into her didn't take and she broke it after about a month. I think I will try again when she's a little older. It's decent enough as a kind of introductory camera or if you only want to record events in a very basic way and aren't looking for pristine images. I don't think it is the most sturdy camera in the world, which means you have to take care with it.

My daughter had it when she was two. She liked trying to take pictures & didn't care if it was of nothing but blur. She plays with it even more since she turned four, and still now that she's turning six. I don't regret getting it for her that early. It's super durable & she has loved it for many years. I'm on here because I want to get one for my son, but was considering blue... My daughter never let's him try to play the games. ;)

Camera too new and no idea as to battery. I would think it is relatively simple since it is marketed for younger users.

Butch here, a 71-year-old non-camera person. Although I do not profess to know all of the bells and whistles the camera has to offer, for basic point and shoot requirements it is terribly easy to manage, even for someone like myself. Admittedly, I have not used it in a great many varying conditions and demands, but for what I generally use a camera, it seems to be doing just great. I highly recommend it. butch

According to the manufacturer, it's best for ages 3-8. I'd say that's about right, too. In our house, it's a huge hit with the 4 and 6yos. This thing is tough and continues to work despite the multiple falls it's taken. By 8 they will be ready for a better camera.

I have given these cameras to my grandkids (ages 8-10) and they've done very well. They not only shoot pictures, they love to make videos. This next trip has a 6 year old, but you'd be surprised what they can do with a simple point-and-shoot auto function. I would definitely recommend it for 8 and up (we'll see about the six year old).

I am still looking.... Actually I own the Canon PowerShot A720. This is a wonderful and inexpensive well built camera but .... The responding time is too long for taking picture of children. I use it to take picture of my littler daughter and most of the time I need to shoot several to get the best one.

My grandson is six years old and does well with it, not many great pictures yet but he loves to take them anyway

I bought this for my four year old grand daughter. My grand kids are already playing with the ipad and iphone...she loved the camera and is having fun taking pictures!!

I have a 5 year old and a 2.5 year old. Both love the camera! The 5 year old is able to do a little bit more with it (like make little "movies") and he takes better pictures, but the 2.5 year old loves having something that she can take pictures with! I think that in a few years my 5 year old will likely grow out of wanting to play with it, but since he is my oldest it is hard to say.

I gave my grandson the camera at age 31/2. He really had a lot of fun with it. He is now almost 5 and loves taking pictures. I am not sure a 2 year old can grasp what the camera if for.
