Good First Camera

I bought this for my 8 year old daughter as it is waterproof and shockproof and costs a lot less than a GoPro. The photo quality seems really good, it is easy to use and review videos and photos. A good beginner camera.

Handy Camera

Bought this camera for my new baby arriving. Very easy and quick to use to capture the best moments! Also waterproof which I'm sure will be very handy. Not the best quality camera but decent for what you pay.
