Are Cheap Digital Cameras Worth The Trouble?

I don't think I would recommend that anyone buy cheap digital cameras, even if they don't think they have money for anything more. Though there are some that are more inexpensive than others, there are some that are down right cheap. They are not something that most think to buy, but when someone wants one and does not have a lot of money, this might be something they pick up. This was a mistake that my friend made, and she soon learned the folly of her thinking.

She wanted a digital, but she did not have a lot of cash to get one. In fact, she was feeling rather poor at the time. She went to look for a cheap multi pixel digital cameras and came home with one that cost twenty dollars. I think she said it was a Barbie camera, but I can't remember right now. She didn't expect it to do wonders, but she thought it might work for what she needed. She was wrong. This camera was made out of cheap plastic and was for kids, but she bought it thinking she would take care of it and nothing would break.

Thankfully, nothing broke, but the camera turned out to be unusable for the most part.  If you are looking for cheap digital cameras  that work for kids I can't even imagine a child would be happy to use these cheap digital cameras. She took some pictures with it to try it out. It only held about twenty, and there was no memory that could be added to it. She was okay with that, and thought she could use this until she could save up for a better one. She went around her house and took some pictures to try it out, and then turned it off and set it down.

The next day she picked it up and turned it on. The pictures she had taken were gone. She wasn't sure why, and she went about taking more. She shut it off again and turned it back one. Again, the picture were gone. Apparently, this is the cheapest of the cheap digital cameras. It won't save the pictures at all. If you turn it off you have lost your photos. She ended up taking it back for a refund, and saved up for a real one. It only took her three months, but that was longer than she wanted to wait. However, she learned her lesson about cheap digital cameras.
