Review of HP PhotoSmart 612 by craiga2001 taken from ciao.co.uk

Advantages Lots of features

A camera worth looking at
Review of HP PhotoSmart 612 by blfox123 taken from ciao.co.uk

Advantages It is small and takes really great pictures.
Disadvantages The batteries do not last long enough.

...I decided I wanted a digital camera. I had no clue of what to look for. I did know that I wanted an HP because I trust their products and have had good luck with them. I lucked out and had the help of a good salesperson who knew what he was talking about.I always buy my electronic equipment at Comp-USA, so this is where I decided to buy my camera. The salesperson helped me to decide which one would be a good camera, plus not break my budget. The information that came with this camera was extremely helpful. I chose this camera because it is easy to use, the buttons are self-explanatory and the price of 259.00 was too good to be true. If I can use this camera, anyone can. It comes with the cable you need to transfer pictures to your computer plus the software for your computer.I like the image display window, you can see... Read review

A nice camera until it broke, by itself.
Review of HP PhotoSmart 612 by BahdKo taken from ciao.co.uk

Advantages Nice camera with good features for the price
Disadvantages Serious durability issues, I would not buy it again

...While this camera worked, I was really happy with it. It took good quality pictures, the focus was usually exactly right, and it did well in a variety of light levels. The optical zoom was exactly what I had been looking for, and it had enough memory so that it wasn't inconvenient to take on trips. It also had a good price for all of its features, that was the original reason I bought it. I really liked this camera, was very happy with it, and would have used it forever, except.... This camera's got what I would call serious durability problems, and you can see evidence of this problem if you check Ebay or any other place on the 'net where people who have had HP612's for a few years are active (The HP support forum at forums1.itrc.hp.com has a really long thread about this camera, with many disappointed owners). My first one simply... Read review
