Kodak Mini Video Camera with SD Card (Grey)

 

I brought this Kodak Mini Video Camera August 5,2012 for my daughter's birthday. It does not take clear videos or photos they are blurred. I own a red one same model that works perfect. I would not buy from this seller again.

Poor instructions.

 

This camera is very hard to operate it and the instructions are very hard for me to follow. I wish I hadn't bought it.
