HP Photosmart R607 review

HP Photosmart R607

Compact; easy to use; helpful Adaptive Lighting feature brightens dark areas; comes in special editions with colored finishes.

Small LCD; few scene modes; tiny video clips.

Lots of useful options set this 4-megapixel compact apart from the pack, but a dearth of scene modes and a minuscule 1.5-inch LCD rain on the HP Photosmart R607's feature parade.

Hewlett Packard Photosmart R607

Good design and good ergonomics.Good image quality with 4-star image quality.32MB internal memory.No serious distortion or chromatic aberration.Interesting and educational interface.Basic scene modes.

No easy way to retain preferred settings aside from the image size.Compression often a touch too strong.Some noise, even at 100 ISO.Limited battery life when the LCD monitor is used.

HP Photosmart R607

The slimline HP Photosmart R607 follows on from the R707 in that it shares many of that camera's fine features and styling, including its plastic/magnesium-alloy casing.

Worth $125

I love this camera. More specifically, I love this camera's value as I got mine for less than $100 - refurbished, but working like new. Nonetheless, I researched a ton of cameras before buying this one approximately 18 months ago, so hopefully I will...
