Kids Digital Camera Photos and Videos Creating Photo Frame and Fun -Birthday Gift Camera

Buying guide for Best Kids’ Digital Cameras
Kids’ digital cameras give young children a fun, easy-to-use camera for real photography. These cameras provide a great introduction to photography that’s not too serious, complicated, or expensive.

Some kids’ digital cameras are more like toys than cameras. These cameras are aimed at preschoolers and young kids. Other digital cameras work nicely for older children and pre-teens.

Digital cameras for children share some features and components with adult digital cameras, but there are some key differences, too.

For especially young children, a kids’ digital camera with two handles and two viewfinders is easier and more natural to use.
Key considerations
Before buying a kids’ digital camera, it helps to understand some of the terminology associated with digital photography.

Image sensor
The image sensor is the chip that records the digital photo. Most kids’ cameras have tiny image sensors, measuring 1/2.3, 1/2.7, or 1/3 inches. An advanced camera’s sensor may be one inch or bigger. Larger image sensors create higher-quality photos.

Megapixels
Each digital photo is made up of a series of tiny dots, referred to as pixels. Each camera’s image sensor can record a maximum number of pixels. This number is measured in megapixels. Children’s cameras often record between 0.3 megapixels and two megapixels. On the other hand, adult cameras may capture 20 megapixels. A photo with more megapixels is sharper and has more detail.

LCD screen
The LCD screen on the back of the camera allows you to see your photos immediately. Larger LCD screens are desirable, but they’re also more expensive.

Memory card
The memory card is a tiny storage card that’s inserted into the camera. A kids’ digital camera will require a certain style of memory card, such as microSD or SD. Each card can store several hundred photos at a minimum.

Viewfinder
The viewfinder is the tiny window on the back of the camera that you look through to frame the photo. Some kids’ cameras allow you to use either the viewfinder or a live image of the scene on the LCD screen to frame the photo. Others only allow you to use the viewfinder. Some kids’ cameras have two viewfinders, so your child can keep both eyes open when using the camera.

Zoom
The ability to magnify the scene is called the zoom. With an inexpensive kids’ camera, you’ll usually be limited to digital zoom. This uses software to magnify the scene, which causes a loss of image sharpness. A more advanced camera may use optical zoom, which adjusts the lens to magnify the scene, maintaining image sharpness.
