| Product Description |
| Planning to snap photos at upcoming events, or just catch your family's and friends' daily activities? Consider the HP Photosmart M737. It's heavy on the megapixels (8) and zoom (24x total). You'll be able to clearly see your subjects and your photos on the 2.5" Auto-bright display, which automatically adjusts to lighting conditions to preserve the battery. Added bonus: once you've finished being a shutterbug, you can do cool things like "slimming" people's physiques and putting borders around your favorite shots. |

HP M737 photosmart camera.... It is a great camera.

| The HP M737 photosmart camera is easy to use and take good quality photos. In addition its software for photo edition is easy to use too. In my opinion for domestic use is not necessary to purchase a more expensive camera. I recommend this product. |

THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE UGLY
2008-08-02

THE GOOD: This camera is user friendly, easy to use and takes terrific pictures which is why I may decide to keep it.
THE BAD: HP does not include a user manual with the camera. They expect you to download the manual, at your own time and expense, from their web site. All they provide with the camera is a Quick Start Guide and a detailed warranty. Also the place where you connect the USB cable to transer pictures to your PC is at the bottom of the camera. I usually take pictures with a tripod which means I always have to remove the camera from the tripod to transfer pictures. Badly designed feature. The software that comes with the camera may or may not be current and therefore may or may not work!
THE UGLY: This best describes the experience you may have dealing with HP tech support. I called their tech support TWICE BEFORE i BOUGHT THE CAMERA AT DIFFERENT TIMES AND SPOKE TO 2 DIFFERENT TECHS ABOUT HOW THE SELF-TIME WORKS. I use the self-timer all the time and it works differently in various cameras. Both techs told me it did NOT need to be reset for each picture as long as you didn't shut the camera off after setting it. NOT TRUE! I don't they intentionally lied to me. I don't think they knew the right answer and didn't bother to look it up. But things went downhill from here. There is supposed to be editing features in the software that comes with the camera. All I wanted to do is crop the pictures I take. When I couldn't find this feature in the software I called tech support. THEY REFUSED TO HELP ME! They said I had to look the information I needed up in their online user manual and figure it out myself. To say I was furious is the understatement of the year, especially after I looked it up in the user manual only to find out the manual DOES NOT EVEN COVER THIS SUBJECT!!! I called tech support back and asked to speak to a supervisor threatening to return the camera to Amazon and put a scathing review on Amazon's web site for all the world to see about HP's lack of customer service. Fortunately a kind, knowledgeable, helpful tech from India took my call and agreed to help me. He showed me how to access the program on the software but after cropping a few pictures, we had trouble saving them. He determined I didn't have the most current version of their software and he showed me how to download the one I needed from their web site. This solved the problem. I later brought my experience to the attention of a supervisor, who listened patiently, but told me he couldn't do anything about it, including discipling the tech who refused to help me. While it's tempting to return the camera and tell HP to go to hell, I've tried a Canon, a Nikon and a Panasonic digital camera in this price range only to find they were all defective in some way and had to be returned. I was beginning to think I couldn't even find a camera that actually worked, much less one that took good pictures. The picture quality is out-standing on this camera. I gave it only a 3-star rating because of the Bad and Ugly points mentioned. BE FOREWARNED! HP is going out of the camera business. Maybe that's why they don't seem to care about helping their camera customers. But I honestly think I'd get the same crummy customer service on any HP product so I won't buy another one. If you buy this camera and need tech support, pray you get the same kind, helpful tech I finally did. I have a feeling he was one in a million which are not good odds, but you may get lucky. Dealing with HP you'll need all the luck you can get! |

Behind the clunkines lay....great pictures!

I gave this camera a 1-day trial. Fair or not, here are my impressions.
The good: It really took some great pictures. Also for a camera that takes AA batteries it has a small form factor almost in the subcompact category. Delete button is handy for deleting unwanted pictures. Flash button is handy for turning flash on/off or to red-eye flash. Cool Panorama feature although you might need a tripod for it to really work seamlessly. Menus are straightforward.
The bad: Battery compartment door is hard to shut and it feels like it would break over time. The tiny slider that switches from camera to movie mode to display mode is flimsy and clumsy to use especially if you want to stop in movie mode. Movie mode is only 320x240 at 24fps. Limited options. Flash recharge time is long. Sometimes focuses on things other than your subject. Size. IT's not big, but not as nice and sexy as a true subcompact.
the ugly: The USB port is on the bottom of the camera which means you either have to lay the camera on its front or back when hooking the camera up to your pc. In other words you get to choose whether you would like to scratch the front of your camera or the back. (Ok you can buy a tiny soft pillow to lay your camera on.) The lcd display gets a nod here as well. It's just not that good. It doesn't do a good job of communicating whether or not you took a great photo. I felt the Canons that I previously used were much better in this regard. And another annoying thing was the camera seems to take a picture a half-second after you want it to even if you halfway hold down the shutter button to charge up the flash. It's also not a winner in the looks department. IT looks clunky. Last the zoom is not that good. The buttons don't feel that great and the zoom sorta "skips" rather than zooms in/out.
All in all this camera is a great value if you want pictures equal to the top point and shoot cameras and you want AA batteries and yet are willing to put up with its clunkiness. To be fair I am used to Canon cameras and so some of the clunkiness may be interpreted (perhaps) as just "not Canon."
For $93 now it's hard to beat in terms of money spent to get a great picture. Still I decided to return it and get a Canon SD1000is instead. IN a few weeks I'll see if it was worth it. |
