Ages before 13
Durability may less important in a camera
for that age group, but it really depends on the kids. In our choices, we
supposed that you would be buying a camera for a child who has learnt that he
should not throw valuable things away; and all products we have chosen give
your kids a small room to develop automatically everything around if they are
more confident.

perhaps is not the most interesting in company’s product lines, but they always
provide simple operation and maintainable image quality that are accordant with
the price. PowerShot A1400 has a 16-megapixel CCD sensor hiding behind a
5x-zoom optical lens (equivalent to 28mm to 140mm), and it operates based on a
couple of AA batteries. That is considered as an additional feature for younger
photographers because they are not worried about charging or charging with a
battery inside, in addition battery slot is pretty large that is comfortable to
hold.

controls with A1400, you will find options of scene modes to add into their
flexibility as a dedicated low light mode, a long shutter mode, and an
automatic program mode. This camera also has some features like Instagram, for

While other cameras have a lot of small
parts and the parts can be considered risk of choking, this whole camera is
small enough to make choking danger itself. Children who want a ultra-pocketed
and ridiculously cute point-and-shoot camera will be able to like Coolpix S-01
which contains those things. It is outstanding with a 10-megapixel CCD sensor,
a 2.5-inch touchscreen, 3x zoom optical lens (equivalent to 29mm-87mm), digital
image stability, and 7.3GB internal memory.
ISO light sensitivity fluctuates from 80 to
1,600, the camera records 720p videos, but all basic technology specifications
are secondary because actually it is only bigger than lens cap of DSLR camera.

pockets and wallets, and in 96-gram weigh including both battery and memory
card, it is light enough to bring anywhere.
