Hewlett Packard Photosmart R707 Digital Camera

Pros: Easy to use & feature filled, fast, compact, great price
Cons: More manual settings makes slower picture, lithium-ion battery charges in camera

(This is a repost of my original review, which disappeared through some epinions crack) Once again HP outdoes themselves with their value-market but powerful technology. I had previously owned (and reviewed) the ...

Pros: Great overall features and flexibility, stylish, great size and feel
Cons: Lack of included accessories; LCD is not always reliable; only one-year warranty

This is fine to buy refurb or cheap, but even if you can get it new, I personally would pass it up for something newer and hopefully more durable. Don't get me wrong--I love this camera's functionality and the pictures it takes. I do not love the ...

Pros: Snazzy facade, easy to use, 5 megapixels, lots of manual options, takes fantastic shots
Cons: Not very compact, could be a little faster.

There's quite a few digital cameras to choose from in the $350 price point. For starters, you've got the Canon A80, the Canon S410, the Pentax Optio S4I, and the Casio QVR-51. So why did I choose this HP model? Well, honestly, because I got it cheap. But ...

Pros: Good HP PC software, good battery life, easy use
Cons: Many problems with LCD screen, and the camera kept freezing up.

I bought this HP camera about 4 years ago. The camera has very good picture quality, and it is relatively easy to use. The zoom is a basic 3 x optical zoom, which I have felt have been insufficient for my needs on many occasions. I must admit that ...

Pros: Great resolution, small size, MPEG mode, onboard battery (removable), durable.
Cons: Slow shutter speed, plethora of features: Steep learning curve for some.

Price for me was $0 as I got it from a rep as a seed model. Sorry... They say that the determining factor in a digital camera is the lens. All "lenses" being equal, the HP Photosmart R707 is a great camera on features alone. The standard features ...

Pros: Very simple to use camera, reasonable price tag, in depth help guide included.
Cons: LCD of 1" which should have been bigger considering the 'free space' on the camera.

My Uncle wanted my buy a Digital Camera and asked me for a suggestion. I wasn't too sure about his budget but recommended a Nikon to him anyway. I now found out that he went for an HP R707 and got the chance to play with it. Though not a leader ...

Pros: Sharp 5 megapixels. Built in Panorama guide+preview Unlimited video!
Cons: No Manual (shutter priority) mode. Lousy Macro. Poor autofocus in low light!

I've used many different digital cameras (Nikon, Canon, Sony, Minolta, Fuji, Olympus) before, and I wasn't sure what to expect from HP. The metal front body is excellent. I'm a sucker for smooth svelte metal finishes. It's the same as my Fisher and ...

Pros: Sleek design. Not bulky. Easy to use.
Cons: Takes too long to charge flash. A lot of red eye.

I bought the HP R707 in the summer of 2004. I haven't had a whole lot of problems with it since I bought it, but there are a few things that peeve me off about it. But we'll start with the good things: It's a very sleek looking camera. Nice design. ...

Pros: Great design, red eye reduction, good price
Cons: upper midgrade optics (could be better, but the price would probably skyrocket)

The HP 707 caught my eye because it's an HP that simply doesn't look like the typically boxy HP. I'd heard good things about the new HP line this year; apparently they've won a few awards, nothing I could testify to mind you. When I picked up the 707 ...

Pros: Great Pics for megapixels, compact, approx. 1hour for non-stop video.
Cons: Small screen, cannot zoom while shooting video.

I purchased the HP707 in the earlier part of 05' after months of comparison. Once ready to purchase I researched the price and found that this particular model was going bye-bye to make way for new 6 pixel. After days of footwork I found it at Office ...

Pros: Good camera help, good zoom, easy to use
Cons: Out of focus pics, poor battery life, unusable software.

This is a good camera in the overall, but since I have it I am getting loads of out of focus pictures. When you shoot the subject must not move for at least two seconds, otherwise it will come out unfocused. The red-eye removal feature is totally ...

Pros: Easy to use, good battery life, lots of features
Cons: Low quality video

I love this camera. I have had it for a couple of years now. It is very easy to use. It takes great pictures. It has a lot of features that I don't even use. The pictures are clear. It is easy to transfer your pictures to your computer it you ...

Pros: Ease of producing a super sharp print from field to frame.
Cons: The camera so compact one with big fingers may experience difficulty with small buttons.

The HP 707 represents the best camera put out by the company for some time. It is solidly built with SS front and collapsible lens which withdraws into body after a shot. The initial cost is extremely competitive for a 5.0 megapixel digital. I purchased ...

Pros: In-Camera Red-Eye Removal, easy to use, image quality, battery life.
Cons: Had trouble installing software, optical zoom can get blurry

The HP R707 is one of those cameras that everyone can pick up and use because of its user friendly style and its many options & accessories available which will keep you interested. My favorite option is the built in red eye remover thats available after ...

Pros: PRICE!!, 3x optical and 8x digital, easy to use menu GREAT SHOTS!!
Cons: Zoom button could be bigger, not much else to pick on.

This is a great camera. I looked at many different cameras Sony, Canons and the rest of the usual suspects. Then a saw an ad for this and I had to check it out. The features truly set this camera apart form all others. Not to mention that you are really ...
