More Picture
This was my first digital camera and it's because of this camera that I stuck with HP when upgrading. It's a very good point and shoot camera with enough modes and settings to satisfy those who like fiddling with such things. br /br /Many of the reviews here complain about battery life. Turn off the live display, you don't need it anyway since the viewfinder is accurate. I never got *fewer* than 60 pictures (sometimes more) in two star mode with the live display off, on a pair of 1800 mAh rechargeables. I also had a big difference when I changed the auto shutoff to a shorter time period.br /br /Also, yes, you need a memory card -- but what digital camera doesn't? I had a 64 MB card with mine and only once completely used the card up.br /br /Shutter speed is a little slower than average for the class but fine for everything except action shots. Lens glass is by Pentax and is good quality. No, you won't get digital SLR quality from this camera, but at 0 it's a great deal.

Still not bad - Mermaiden -
Though it's pretty old now, I still have mine. It has always been poor with battery life, but if you turn the display off when not taking photos, using the left top button on the display, it will not use so much. I tested the macro focus option against a newer camera and I dare say I think this one was better. It is slow to process sometimes which is a pain, but still, the quality of photos is actually pretty nice.

Because I spilled coffee on my first model 735 photosmart camera, then fried it by charging it before it had dried out. SAME model was purchased 7-7-08. FROZE CLOSED because I did not know I was to check for updates. Bought #3 (9-5-9) and updated it immediately. It is working fine. Bought #4 1-18-2010 as a spare in case I do something dumb to #3. I am not insane; they do not make or service this model anymore and although easy to use it makes pictures that "real" photographers rave over. Another fine feature is the dock in which it recharges, is always ready to capture that one-of-a-kind moment!
