Type of review

Total junk. Firstly, this camera has clearly been used, returned and repackaged. There are obvious scratches on the front cover and lines, dust and scratches on the LCD. Secondly, the battery cover can hardly be opened. It's lighter than a pack of matches and leaves you wondering if there's anything inside the camera body. The overall build quality is very cheap, unfinished and inferior to a Chinese toy.

Pros
  • Uses 2 AAA batteries (included) and stores photos and videos on a micro SD card (not included)
Cons
  • Zero

Polaroid IS048 Camera WARNING, no onboard memory or batteries included

Gave this to my 6 year old granddaughter for her birthday today. She hoped to use it at her birthday party. This was a big disappointment as there is no internal storage and photos cannot be stored without storage. So I bought a micro SD card to make it work. The instructions state that the camera can handle cards level 4 and above and up to 32GB. So I bought a 32GB fast card locally but after numerous attempts the Polaroid IS048 didn't recognize the SD card. We tried the USB stick in anotherโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for underwater photography, fully submersible to 10ft
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was

Low cost but takes some work to get decent shots

Looking for a cheap camera, you found it. A pair of AAA batteries and a micro SD card are required for operation. The quick start guide is useless except to give you a complete camera manual which is also full of errors but helps a lot. The buttons aren't obvious, but the manual controls help, the screen isn't too bad, the camera doesn't quite match the documentation. After playing around with different settings I find the image quality to be okay, but you need to work on it a bit to get itโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great first camera for kids with enough features for beginners of all ages
Cons
  • No instructions

I got this camera anyway , because at the time I wanted something for them 10-year-olds who have expressed an interest in photography. Since the interest is likely to be fleeting, I didn't want to spend a lot. Polaroid has been a fixture in my life since the '70s, but oh boy, this camera changed that. Impossible to get a decent picture. I've tried repeatedly with different settings; My tech savvy husband spent almost 2 hours just getting a decent picture - no bueno. Leadership is NOTโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Take high-quality 16MP photos and HD video with the easy-to-use point-and-shoot camera with 2.4" preview screen
Cons
  • Slightly torn
