5.0 out of 5 stars Nice, easy to use camera!, September 22, 2005

By	Josh's Grobanite (Wisconsin) - See all my reviews

I previously owned a Canon Powershot A100, and I am so much happier with the HP Photosmart M517! This camera is ideal for novice photographers and experts alike! The user's manual is very easy to follow and understand, and the camera functions are extremely simple to use. I am very pleased with the picture quality, and had gorgeous pictures even on the very lowest image quality settings! This camera is worth every penny I paid for it, and I'd highly recommend it! It's definitely a superb quality camera!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, clear photos and print me some NOW !, November 9, 2006

By	Deanna Freehauf "lovethelake" (Lemont, IL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am a Grandma and not very adept at figuring out new fangled cameras expecially with printers. The printer is VERY easy to use and it's been nice when grandkids and friends come to our vacation house-we take many pictures and can send relatives and friends home with as many photos as they want. No going to the store to get them developed! A wonderful advantage to this camera/printer set! The printer has an included electric cord, or you can purchase a battery to run the printer without electricity. This camera takes several different quality photos depending what you set the "MPs" at. Even I learned how to set the MPs! The greater the "MPs," the clearer resolution of your photo. This model M517 goes from 3MPs to 5.2MPs, but I found that the lower MPs take VERY acceptable quality pictures. The higher the MPs, the less pictures your camera memory will hold before you'll need to delete some if you want to take more photos. So I purchased a 1GB memory card that can store several HUNDRED photos even on the clearest resolution. This is wonderful for vacations, weddings, etc.! It is very easy to delete "red eyes" in your photos before printing them and you can also "crop" the photos if you want a closer-up photo. The only "con" I have is that the rechargeable batteries do not last long-a few days depending on how often you have the camera on. The camera batteries are recharged when you "dock" (set the)the camera on the printer. I purchased a 4 pack of NiMH rechargeable batteries so I could always have spares on hand. The recharger charges the camera batteries in ONE HOUR. Charging batteries when the camera is docked on the printer takes several hours to do. The whole package has what you need to start taking pictures immediately-even ink and photo paper. Cables to connect to a computer and to a TV to view photos are all included. All in all, this Grandma is VERY satisfied with my new Photo Studio!

5.0 out of 5 stars A great camera, December 15, 2005

By	Andre R. Cavalcanti "A.R.C." (CA, United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I got this camera a few days ago and I must say that I am very, very satisfied. The price is great for a 5 megapixel, it is easy to use, very user-friendly. Its size is perfect: very small. The 2" screen is wonderful and the pictures this camera takes are surprisingly good. It comes with an internal 32 Mb memory, but I got a 1 Gb SD memory card. This memory card can store 618 pictures(5 megapixel) and more than 300 pictures at 5 megapixel best mode. It also comes with a rechargeable NiMH battery and an AC adapter to recharge it. I think HP should also include in the whole package a case for the camera, once there is none in the box. Finally, I am not sorry at all for having bought it...
