I am 71 and find it easy to operate. All I use it for is to take pictures, download onto my computer and share them with friends.

I'm 71 and it was not hard for me. The only thing is you need to download the manual and you need a USB cord to hook to the computer from the camera. It does not come with this camera. I have used several brands of digital camera before and usually everything came with the camera. It is small and will fit good in a purse if she wants to carry it all the time. You also need a SD card. Hope this helps.

you don't need a manual to use this camera, a 8 year old can use it, so its relatively easy to use

Absolutely. We have done so for our daughter and her grandparents. They remarked how clear and smooth the picture was with this webcam. That said, make sure your internet upload and download speeds can handle it.

Hello Mine, This camera is so easy to operate... "yes", you can easily transfer photo's onto your computer, and upload them.

I'm a 50 year old grandmother and setting up on my Mac was as easy as everything else on my Mac . . .and took less than a half hour. There will always be the technology challenged who probably still have VCRs flashing 12:00am but for most living in a tech world, it's no problem at all.

Yes I found it very easy to use and I am 78 so hopefully your mother will cope too.

Pretty quick actually. My mom uses the cam to take pictures of my 6 year old brother so you can imagine how fast he moves. and the camera is able to capture it all so I'm pretty happy with that function.

Judging how my mother is with technology, I don't think this camera is for one who is technologically challenged.Perhaps you should look for some kind of point and click camera.

Sorry to be equivocal, but it depends. If it is really bright, you won't be able to see much of anything, and you will likely miss having an optical viewfinder. But if you're able to throw caution to the wind, this camera does a great job capturing photos, and you can just crop later (if that's something you're able and willing to do). I bought this camera for my father, who is 83, and he's taking some great pictures with it.

I gave this to my 6 year old granddaughter who has a hard time holding her arms/hands still for a picture, but this camera does pretty well. I think it would do ok, but if things are really shaky, whether from a young child or older hands, there still might be some blurriness. Heck, even I have blurry pictures at times! Good luck!

I bought this phone for my 92 year old grandmother - it is so simple for her to use and has given her back the freedom to pick up the phone to call family and friends. Just take the phone off the hook and push the picture!!! Your grandmother will love it - mine does!!!

This camera was bought for our construction job site. I was only involved in the initial set-up of the camera, have never used it to take pictures. I guess it would depend on the age of the child. It seemed pretty user friendly.

It's easy to use. Just need to set up a couple of settings in the menu, battery type and if you using it in or out of water. Also close or far shots. Then it is point and click. You also have the choice of video or pictures also.

Unfortunately, I don't have it with me. I gave it as a gift to my 86 year old mother. As I recall, I used the touch screen controls on the front and dragged in the pictures from my I Photo. Sorry I can't be more helpful but I recall it being pretty easy.

I think this camera will be great for a 10 year old. It's basic,easy to use. Rechargeable battery with charger. Its fun and so small it really does fit in your pocket.. Of course being so small will the 10 year keep track of it? I love it,alot of fun to use.
