5.0 out of 5 stars Great Camera, December 30, 2006

By	Anthony L. Cainion "Anthony Cainion" (IRAq) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

For a digital Camera with 6 mp for this price. It is great, I don't know what most people be buying a 8 and 9 mp camera for, b/c if you are not blowing a picture up bigger than a 10 X 12, then you don't need nothing bigger than a 6 mp camera. I seriously like this camera. HP is doing a good job on Photosmarts. This camera takes great pictures and the zoom is incredible. I am a soldier in Iraq and I have been taking nice pictures with this camera everysince i bought it.

4.0 out of 5 stars HP R725 6.2MP, January 11, 2007

By	J. Engelberg - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Very easy to use camera that takes solid pictures. This camera allows for zooming and has sound while taking video. I like that you have the option of cliping pictures out from the video clips. This allows for some humerous pictures. I really like this camera.

I did have a problem with the zoom button 2 months after buying the camera and after about a month of not using the camera. I had to press the button really hard for it to zoom. I called Amazon to take back the product but they were not very helpful with informing me how much money they would refund me or how I can take it to HP if it were under warantee.

All in all, the camera is very usable and I plan on keeping it and have not had any other problems with the camera.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best buy for the price, January 15, 2007

By	S. McDuffie (Oakford, IN United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love this camera. It has lots of features and doesn't go through batteries real fast. The pictures are clear not fuzzy. You can do panorama and stick them together. Wonderful feature. My only regret is that I could not afford one with more zoom.
