KODAK Printomatic Full-Color Instant Print Digital Camera - Colorful Photos On Zink 2x3" Sticky-Back Photo Paper - 5MP, Portable, Creative Fun Gift for Birthday, Christmas, Holiday - Blue

This is an inexpensive printer that uses ZINK paper - which means, no ink, no mess, no worries. The zink images are relatively small, but when the paper is peeled of of the back they become stickers. Shop for a good price on the zink paper and it is rather cost effective. With your smart phones for capturing those crystal clear huge megapixel pictures, this camera is a refreshing change, producing good quality images that you or your children can hold in their hands. Decide which type camera you want and if it is a simple, fun camera, that prints nice little photos, which can double as stickers, this may be just for you!

Loved this camera. Bought it for our first cruise trip to have ever lasting memories. Only down fall it sometimes just prints out blank and I’m unsure why but other than that, I really am glad I purchased it.

I obviously should've done more research outside of the Amazon page itself, but I feel like in this day and age if you call something a digital camera then you're implying that is going to have a digital led screen to preview the pictures you take, that way you can choose the best photos to print instead of wasting paper on every shot in the dark hoping to get a decent photo. This especially sucks because I bought 2 of them as gifts. At this price point it's insane not to have a screen. I could've gotten much better digital cameras for half the price and simply printed them myself. These essentially amount to a very expensive child's toy. I used to trust Kodak as a brand, but it felt like this was intentionally left out of any descriptions or product photos to trick people into purchasing them at this insane price. I don't think I'll be buying from Kodak again after this experience.

I wanted to love this! I got it for my 6 year old for christmas and while she loves it, it is very cheaply made for the price you pay. For $80 I could have gotten her a fuji film camera kit with the photo paper, photo albums, and scrapbook stickers/kit. For $80 with this camera I received a cheap plastic camera with 1 pack of photo paper that only had 4 sheets in it.The print speed is fast, the photo quality is okay. It's easy to transport. Not as durable as I would like. But it is easy for a child to use.

Was excited to use this at the wedding but it crapped out too soon

The "pressure plate" or "platen" (metal piece in first image) should be attached to the back cover and presses against the paper to keep it aligned with the roller/feed mechanism. Upon opening it the first time, this platen fell out b/c it either wasn't attached sufficiently or the places it connects weren't molded well. I was able to put it back together and get a few usable prints out, but it fell apart each time I opened it. A small wire that helps hold the platen to the "door" came loose and was lost. The interface design is most frustrating. Referring to the second image, note the placement of the power button in proximity to the exposure button. Several times after shooting, then turning the camera to where the print exits, my finger would accidentally hit the power button & start the entire process over before the print made it out, losing the original because it stopped mid-process, then waiting for the accidental one to process & exit, losing yet another print. The buttons should be placed separate from each other, or recessed. The exit slot runs across roughly 80% of the entire camera height, creating another spacing problem should your finger happen to be covering part of it due to trying to hold the camera in an area that isn't going to cause the button(s) to be pressed again. The SD slot & USB connection is on the bottom. The "charged" light came on, but it actually only had enough charge for about 3 prints . . . SO, keep it plugged in if possible, and be constantly aware of where you're holding it. I have yet to open the replacement, but I found no instructions in the first one, except the placement notation that the blue conditioner-sheet that comes with the paper packs. Cramming a quality dye-sub printer & camera together is quite a feat, and worth it if you keep these tips in mind while using it.

Love it!! It works great!!

Got this for our daughters birthday. She is 4. She loves to take pictures with this as it gives her some understanding that she has a finite set of pictures she can take and they should be important when she clicks the button. She has gone through a few picture packets and has taken some really cool pictures. The picture quality is good for this device and you can make out most of the detail but don't expect it be super detailed. Who cares it's a kids camera and it's durable, looks and feels cool, easy to learn and operate by a 4 year old and when she is playing with it she really does not need a lot of adult supervision. So far this device works great and she loves it!
