Our five year old daughter loved this thing! She played with it non-stop, several hours each day, for four months. Of course, being only five, the poor camera was dropped on a hard surface five or six times. The last drop broke the camera to the point where the picture is completely black.
Although this is an exteremely fun toy, I was disappointed in the short range of the signal between the camera and its base. It has a very poor picture/sound when the camera and base or at opposite corners of our 1500 sq foot home with no electrical interferance.
This was our experience, hope it is helpful.

In just 1 afternoon of use, this camera caused my 27 inch TV to have permanent damage to the picture tube. There is now a giant discolored ring across the entire screen. No kids toy should be able to burn a giant discolored ring into a television picture tube! Avoid this at all costs or face trashing your TV! And, there wasn't anything in the instructions that stated that anything like this could happen.

I purchased this toy for my 6 year old daughter for christmas. There was so much static that it could not be used. It was exchanged for another one, which also had so much static it had to be reurned. Thankfully it was easily returned to toys r us.

Contrary to the product description, this Barbie video camera does not have a functional external or detachable microphone, or a microphone jack. The hand-held microphone that comes with it is just a non-functional prop.
The sound pick-up of the built-in microphone is very poor. The subject has to yell very loudly in order to be heard by the on-camera microphone.
This toy might be worth the price if it really did have a functional external microphone.
Another problem is that the viewfinder is very inaccurate. It only shows a very small portion of the camera's actual field of view.
