Perfect for my 2.5 year old who is obsessed with photography. The camera itself is very solid and still holds up great. I haven't uploaded the camera photos yet to give the best quality rating but from what I can see on screen they are amazing for a kids camera. It contains many shocking photos. My son immediately figured out how to use it and even learned how to use the selfie feature. I even love the little clip he wears it around his neck so he always has it with him on the go. The battery life is also impressive. The most important thing is to see the world through his eyes. It is valuable and definitely something to keep in mind as a gift.
