Barbie x Kodak Printomatic Full-Color Instant Print Digital Camera + KODAK 2"x3" Premium Photo Paper (50 Sheets)

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!

Love this camera! It's very easy to use. It doesn't come charged, so if you're having trouble with it, plug it in (hold the power button to turn it on). There are three lights on the bottom left: battery, printing, and SD card. If the battery is white, it's fine to use, if printing is white, it's printing, and if SD card is red there's no micro SD (white means there is). The pictures it takes are super cute and very fun, but don't buy this if you're expecting iPhone or other camera quality pictures. They're different than polaroid prints, but are very similar quality to cameras from the early 2000s/2010s or so. You can see everything but it's not going to be super vivid and the color will be a little off. Also, try to take pictures in light, but as you can see in the last photo, the camera won't always adjust to super bright light like another camera would.I bought this as the used (like new description) and it was in perfect condition. The box had a slight mark but had never been opened. This product comes with 10 sheets of paper, but if you're looking to buy more, amazon has HP Zink 2x3 sticky back paper that is cheaper than the Kodak brand of the same exact thing, and works just as well. Really no difference, just a few dollars more.Last thing: in the instruction manual it comes with, the black and white vs color switch instructions seem to be slightly wrong. If you can see the three colorful dots, your photo will come out in color. If the dots are grey and black, it'll be black and white. The manual seemed to reverse this, so I figured I'd mention it. :)

Tl;Dr: This is a good LOOKING product, and does exactly what it says it will. However, photo quality is not at all what it should be, and the mechanics are quite finicky. If you must have an instant-develop camera, keep looking.I researched instant-print cameras and this was supposed to be a good choice if you want a photo larger than two postage stamps put together. Unfortunately, more research after I got it home and tried it out (and assumed I must be doing something wrong) tells me that no, it's just not a good product for what it's supposed to do: take and print photos.The quality of the pictures is terrible. Blurry, with washed out colors, and color that is just plain incorrect (a medium jewel purple came out almost pastel, etc). The lack of control over flash is a serious flaw as the camera's sensor seems to think it needs to go off any time you're indoors and not in the very brightest of lighting, so on top of everything the photos often come out seriously over-exposed. I get the feeling you'd get much better results taking pics from about six feet away (as is the intended use), but didn't waste more film trying that out.You're better off snapping pictures with your phone and taking a few extra seconds to just print them out in a small size. Very disappointed. Really wanted this to work so I could easily take pictures for journaling, but the photo quality is a non-starter, especially for the price.In addition:- The button to take a photo is VERY sensitive, so don't hold your finger anywhere near it until you're ready to take a picture- The frame in the viewfinder is extreeeemely inaccurate for photos that are taken within a few feet of the subject. I went through probably three to five shots before I figured out how to take them without getting several inches cut off of each side.- Definitely get extra film out of the gate (and I recommend a little case, too, otherwise it's just sitting out waiting to get scratched or banged around). The starer pack mine came with had five sheets, not ten, and I went through all of them just on the learning curve.

Purchase this cameraI wish the photos were a little bit clearer, but it all depends on your lighting, but still worth the money. Would definitely recommend

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!
