the camera is a piece of junk! before christmas we wanted to put the batteries in the camera, so it would be ready to go when our daughter opened it christmas morning. in the process of pulling the small black door (that holds the flat battery) out, it broke and we had to use tweezers and plyers to get the door out of the camera. this camera is cheaply made. we couldn't take it back because i bought it on sale last year and the return policy had expired. i called the company and they do not give exchanges without the receipt and they do not have replacements parts (said they don't make the parts) that tells you something! you get what you pay for, we should have bought the fischer price kids camera!
