 "FRUSTRATED" 2009-09-27

I purchased this camera as a gift for my grandson. It has not worked from the beginning. It may work for a few minutes but then will not stay on...it is not the battery! This would be an educational and fun activity but getting a gift that doesn't work is worse than no gift at all. I do not have original wrapping, so also I have wasted substantial money.

 "Appalling battery life - Camera will not stay on" 2009-03-28
By R. Mastrangelo
I purchased this camera in July 2008 and found that after taking just a few photos, the camera either would not turn on or, by pressing the power button multiple times, it might or might not turn on and then it might or might not quickly turn itself off. Taking out the batteries and putting them in a battery tester would show that the batteries still had a like-new charge. Putting the batteries back in or putting in another brand-new set of 4 AAA alkaline batteries might or might not temporarily help.



I tried using different brands of fresh and new alkaline batteries (Eveready, Duracell, Kodak, Panasonic, and Rayovac) and had precisely the same results. Given that the owner's manual only recommends alkaline batteries and specifically states "do not use rechargeable batteries", I did not bother to experiment with anything except alkalines.



Assuming that my camera was defective, I exchanged it on October 30, 2008 and I had precisely the same performance with the second sample.



I see that a number of the reviews here are noting my same problem. I cannot understand how ANY the reviewers here could give this camera more than 1 star unless their sample of the camera did not exhibit this problem. If that's the case, Fisher-Price has a major quality control problem and you should only purchase it only if you are willing to deal with the consequences of it not working properly.



Another issue is that Fisher-Price appears to sell two different cameras with exactly the same name - "Fisher-Price Kid-Tough digital camera". Mine is the one that typically sells for $60, is available in pink or powder blue, and has three molded-in stripes on the side hand-holds. The other version has a textured pebble finish on the side hand-holds. Maybe that other model performs better and the reviews are getting interchanged between the two models?? I don't know why, but Fisher-Price makes it hard to find a model number for my version. There's no number on the packaging. However, on the bottom of the camera, in very small type, it says M8071/M8072. On the back of the owner's manual, it says M8071a-0920. Neither of these is labeled as a model number.



It's a shame that this camera has the problem I describe. Otherwise, I think it's fantastic. Sure, the image quality is terrible, but, hey , it's just a toy and my kids (ages 3 and 6) absolutely love it when it works. For them, it's easy and fun to use. Plus, if you believe what it says on the packaging, it is "water proof!" and "BUILT TO SURVIVE DROP, AFTER DROP, AFTER DROP!" However, what's the point if you can't turn it on?
