HP PhotoSmart 735 3.2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom

The HP PS735 delivers big results from a little camera, thanks mainly to its high-resolution CCD. It also offers terrific connectivity options thanks to HP Instant Share technology that lets users select where photos will go the next time they connect the camera to a PC--e-mail addresses, printers and more.

Optics and Resolution
The PS735 has a 3.24 effective-megapixel CCD that snaps pictures at a native resolution of 2088 x 1550 pixels. That's enough resolution to allow for clear printouts at up to 11 x 14 inches. The 3x optical zoom lens can be augmented by the 5x digital zoom for a total zoom level of 15x. This is a point-and-shoot camera with a variety of automatic shooting modes, but several manual adjustments also are available for those times you need to override the default settings.

Storage and Transfer
Images are stored in the camera's 16 MB internal memory or on removable SD or MMC cards. The camera connects to a PC using a full-speed USB 1.1 interface.

More Features
The HP PhotoSmart 935 and 735 digital cameras feature the latest version of HP Instant Share. HP Instant Share is an Internet-based software application that allows consumers to select destinations from the back of the camera; then, by connecting the camera to a computer, the photos are instantly sent to the selected destinations--e-mail addresses, printers or hpphoto.com. Receivers of the HP Instant Share e-mail can easily view, print and save the photos from a secure Web page--all without downloading attachments.

The many manual adjustments include various ISO settings, several flash modes, macro focus mode, and many exposure controls. A ten-second timer is built in and the camera can adjust automatically to compensate for a variety of lighting conditions.

Other features include:

• Captures video clips with audio
• 1.5-inch LCD
• Can shoot in burst mode

Power and Size
The camera is powered by two AA batteries (rechargeable NiMH batteries recommended). It measures 4.13 by 1.8 by 2.8 inches and weighs .52 pounds (without batteries).

5.0 out of 5 stars Great photos for a small price, October 6, 2003

This review is from: HP PhotoSmart 735 3.2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)

I purchased this camera before taking a trip out West. I'm not a great photographer but found that this camera took good quality pictures without much fuss on my part. I liked the fact that I could change the picture quality settings to hold more pictures (I took 92 one day without having to have a memory card) and I liked being able to set the camera to landscape or portrait or action mode depending on my subject. I found it very easy to use. It's also possible to fine-tune your settings if you're a more experienced photographer. I thought it was a really good value.

4.0 out of 5 stars A decent camera for the price, January 16, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: HP PhotoSmart 735 3.2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)

I purchased this digital camera for my wife for Christmas after comparing some 6 different cameras. This was our first digital camera, but we pretty much knew what to expect.

Some of the negative reviews I believe are a little unfair. The picture quality is completely dependent on the photographer. The camera allows you to take 1, 2, or 3 "star" pictures. The 1 star photos are the poorest quality - we found them to be equivalent of taking pictures with a cheap disposable camera. But the higher star photos are quite good, and we had no problem using the zoom.

Two words of advice - since you will need to take 2 or 3 star photos for the quality, you will also need to purchase a memory card expander. And this camera is a monster on batteries - we used Duracell Ultras for our first pictures and the batteries died after 10 pictures. My suggestion is to use the camera's manual viewfinder whenever possible, don't take too many video or audio clips, and buy decent rechargable batteries.

The viewfinder was easy to read, the directions were clear, and the camera is easy to use. For people interested in purchasing their first digital camera who don't want the poor quality of a 2MP camera and/or can't afford a 5MP, this is a smart purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cudos for HP 735, August 16, 2003

By 

David Campbell "dssoup" (Hershey, PA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: HP PhotoSmart 735 3.2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)

For the money this is a great machine. The lens is sharp, colors are well saturated, and everything on the camera actually works. This little guy has rekindled my old interest in photography, and it is possible to take this camera out and come back with hundreds of reasonable pictures. My bags full of high-end 35mm are likely to gather more dust. The optional 8881 dock works well, and the HP photoshare feature allows encoding email address targets or printing instructions on the camera for automatic download/print/email sharing when docked. Standard AA batteries (only two) and generic storage expansion are appreciated. Buy an extra few high capacity NiMH batteries on your own and you will be able to shoot all day long. Moderate resolution setting and a 256 MB SD card will keep you busy for over two hundred shots with very reasonable resolution.

The HP 735 performs much better than I expected it to, and it's highly recommended. A manual focus option is the only feature missing that I would find useful, especially for macro shots. If the functions and output do not satisfy, then the only option is to move up to >5 Mpixels at a much higher price point.
