VTech MagiCam prototype (1999)

Back in the days when digital cameras for kids were rare, VTech came up with this one. It was first demonstrated at the Nuremburg Toyfair in Germany in 1999. It could also connect to the VTech IQ learning computers. It was one of the few or first digital camera in Germany to break the $50 barrier. VTech learning computers with MagiCam ports were marketed in 2000 but the exact marketing date of the final MagiCam is unknown, most likely also in 2000.
