"Good First Digital Camera"
Pros: Large everything, clearly labeled, easy to use, printer dock charges batteries
Cons: Small internal memory, short battery life
Summary: I bought this camera + printer dock bundle for my 70+ year old mother for Christmas this year. She has glaucoma and her hands shake, and she's been taking terrible pictures with her point-and-shoot film camera for years. In her case, smaller isn't better, and she felt comfortable with this camera. (I let her pick out her camera + printer package at her local Sears)
Buttons are easy to find and clearly labeled. The LED is a good size, and when it's on the dock, it shows instructions. Mom's more adventurous than the average oldster, but she had some trepidation about taking digital pictures until she started using this. Cropping is very easy, and the printer paper is readily available in Mom's local drug store. Since she doesn't have a computer, this camera/printer dock package was a great solution for her. She can take the memory card to the local library to e-mail pix to her friends, yet also print what she likes.
I bought this for her on Thanksgiving, plus an SD card for more pictures. The internal memory filled up fast at family gatherings. What's not initially clear in the instructions is that the rechargeable battery recharges by putting the camera onto the printer dock. This is a great feature, as the whole point of giving mom this camera was to save her some money.
