Has anyone used this camera?

I hope I put this in the right place....

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has bought/used this camera:

Disney Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Pix Jr. Digital Camera | Disney Store

I was thinking of getting the princess one for DD to take her own pictures on our trip, but I'd like some opinions if anyone has any experience w/ it.
TIA!

My DD was given the Hannah Montana camera and it takes horrible pictures. I found some Disney disposable cameras last year and DD used them to take her pictures. They worked great! I would try a disposable and not waste $50 on this camera.

I've heard nothing but horrible things about the Disney clickpix lines, except for the bundled software which many believe is worth buying the camera for just to have

Well, that's a shame. I was thinking the software that adds to your pics might be fun for her but I don't want terrible pictures.....any recommendations for a kid-friendly digital camera? (DD is 5)

My son has this one..its 3 mp...you can put the stamps of various characters on the pictures before you take them. The quality is not great but he LOVES it and has so much fun posing family and friends to kiss Tinkerbell or pose like POOH Bear. We got it last year at toys R Us.

BTW I think they had something girly too...maybe Hannah Montana??? A few different buttons to push but probably if you showed her once or twice it would be OK...kids are so smart with these things...LOL!

My experience with "souvenir" cameras like this pretty much mirror the above sentiments. Actually I had much more choice words in mind. They're usually low-grade molded plastic lens with tiny, low density sensors, proprietary interfaces and non-upgradable memory. Let's face it, Disney souvenir quality generally stinks. For a few bucks more you can get a fully functional, higher resolution and better quality P&S (as opposed to POS) at your local Wally World or Best Buy. Insignia is Best Buy's house label. I've seen good review on them. If you have to have the Disney stuff on it pick up some stickers in the kids book or card sections.

Just my two cents
Craig

When DD was 5 we went with disposables because we were still concerned with dropping and loss and didn't want to risk an investment in a real camera.
It wasn't until she was about 9 that we decided she kept track of her stuff enough that I knew I wouldn't always be running a camera census. Then we kept our eyes out for a good deal and bought one on a Black Friday sale.
