u can't take pics with it but u can put them on it from your computer. the owners manual says it can hold music, pics, videos, and E-books. It has a voice recorder on it but everything else has to be put on it from your comp.
It did have music on it but I took it off before I put it on listia. I have another mp3 thats the exact same but it has music on it that I can't delete off of it for some reason so I won't put it on here. Good luck Hun.
