Advantages: small, light, easy to use, fantastic battery life.
Disadvantages: Lens a little too close to the edge

I am in no way a professional photographer, indeed I am more a 'point, click and pray for the best' type photographer, but this camera has made my results much better than expected. I actually got this camera as a second choice after the one I wanted was out of stock but I'm very glad I did. The best way to explain how easy it is to use is to tell you that my three year old daughter can work it. It is small and light and takes both photographs and ...
...quality settings I can get around 18 pictures before the memory is full but it is easily expandable using a memory card. Another point I really like is the battery. Instead of carrying 8 spare AA batteries round with you at all times, there is just one battery which comes with its own charger...no battery costs ! I charged the battery at Christmas and it is still 3/4 full. A small flick of a switch and you can view photographs and videos already ... Read review

Advantages: Takes good pictures
Disadvantages: Lacks an optical viewfinder

I have just bought a HP Camera. Its the Photosmart M737 model and finished in a lovely silver colour. The casing itself is hard plastic but also very lightweight to carry. One thing you will notice thats different is that it lacks an optical viewfinder. Therefore when you are framing pictures, you will need to rely on the bright, clear and very large 2.5 inch colour screen on the rear. It does have a finger lip on the front for steadying pictures ...
...strong carry strap. It takes 2 AA type batteries which means they dont recharge internally as a lot of modern cameras do. A set of batteries seem to last around 100 average type pictures. I do like the high range optical zoom that is able to focus in on very close objects as well as distant objects. The resolution does not seem to drop off. My husband has a similar camera with identical Megapixels (8 on both cameras) yet this seems to zoom much ... Read review

Advantages: Small and handy to be taken nearly anywhere also the price is great.
Disadvantages: 16MB on-board RAM is not enough you have to purchase a larger SD Flash card.

...the chance of breakage. The HP Photosmart M525 has a built in flash that is situated just above the lens, even though it is small it supplies ample light for the photograph you are taking. This camera has two capture buttons on the top of it, the shutter button; the one that is the largest, is for taking still pictures but quite handily behind that button is a video button that records small videos with sound, very handy for recording important ...
...supplied. You connect the HP Photosmart M525 to your computer with the supplied USB cable or you can if you have a card reader just take out the card and insert it into your card reader. It takes a SD Flash media card, I think one of the reasons this was so cheap is because it is not supplied with a SD flash card though it does have 16mb onboard RAM but this is nowhere near enough for quality pictures. Underneath you also have a threaded section ... Read review

Advantages: Pocket Sized, Durable, Easy To Use
Disadvantages: Battery Life Not Very Long

I have owned my HP Photosmart M22 for over a year now, and it is the best digital camera i've had so far. It is easy to use with the slide open lens, and takes brilliant pictures. It also does video footage - this function is a good idea but the film doesn't come out too well if its dark. Taking the pictures from the camera to the PC is simple too, with just plugging the USB cable in and off you go. The only disadvantage i have found to be with ... Read review

Advantages: Good photo quality, easy to operate, Easy to download photos from this camera
Disadvantages: Digital display is not clear, Slow to start, video recording button and photo buttons are placed incorrectly

I own an hp320 since 2002. It a good value for your money. Fully automated. I find it very easy to operate. Good photo quality.. However, the video recording button and photo clicking buttons are placed very close to each other which I think is a bit inconvenient as many times I clicked the recording button when I was suppose to take a still picture. Video quality is OK. This camera does not record voice with the video. The digital display is not ...
...the object but still good enough for an amateur photographer. I think that the power consumption is a bit higher (It uses 4 AA size batteries!, compare SONY) One thing that I did not like about this camera is that this it takes somewhat longer to start. it looks better than average. Still there is a scope to make it look more contemprary. By and large a good product, especially, for people who want to buy an easy to operate camera at a very reasonable ... Read review
