HP Photosmart. 430 series.. Not so smart after all.

by shoplmart Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, Feb 19 '05
Pros: Price, 5x digital zoom, Easy to use.
Cons: Battery hog, Fuzzy LCD, Shutter lag, reliability.
I recently received a Canon PIXMA IP5000 photo printer as a gift; the only problem was I didn't have a digital camera or any type of camera for that matter. Since I have had a positive experience with both my HP computer and DeskJet printer, I ...

Despite their catchy commercials, an HP digital camera is Buyer's Remorse waiting to happen.

by JediKermit Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Mar 16 '05
Pros: Cheap...uh...nice chassis...
Cons: Battery Vampire, no Macro setting, poor LCD screen, fuzzy pictures...
Right now there are some really cool HP (Hewlett Packard) commercials on tv in high rotation. They feature happy, fun, bouncy music, and innovative visuals, making photographs from moving images...the one you see most is the balding guy at his desk, ...

Good for casual snapshots

by dieseldust , Nov 03 '04
Pros: Good picture quality, print direct to printer, light weight and convenient.
Cons: Battery hog, limited controls, colour balance not always accurate.
I purchased this camera as part of a HP's Digital Home Photo Studio System. The price was right and the camera provides us with a second option for family use. Technically this camera is a real point and shoot variety, so don't expect to have too much ...

Okay "camera". Really just a webcam on steroids

by afhouston , Nov 11 '03
Pros: Nice look, small and light, quick load time, slide the cover open and shoot
Cons: Worse picture quality than peers, poor battery life, inaccurate LCD
This camera is a good deal at $100 or less. The best $150 camera is probably the Fuji Finepix 2650. In any case, the camera has a lot of limitations. The battery life for this is very short, regardless of using a rechargeable battery or not. It doe ...

Great Amateur Camera

by dragon_mg , May 19 '04
Pros: Inexpensive, Great Image Quality, good MP to $$$ ratio, Uses SD media
Cons: Off center tripod mounting hole, battery hog
I bought this camera right before I deployed to Iraq. I have owned my share of point-and-shoot digitals, but I wanted one that would give me at least 3 Megapixel, so I settled on this one. My last few cameras have been HP, plus a Sony DSC-U10 in my ...

Pros: reviewing photos, playback menus, HP brand name
Cons: slow shutter, short battery life, unintuitive, boxy, poor LCD screen, flash, disappointing overall
My friend and I always like to take pictures. Whatever the occasion may be, taking pictures seems like a good way to go in many aspects. My friend owns this HP PhotoSmart 435 Digital Camera, and yesterday at a concert I got to finally use it. I ...

Consider spending a little more

by timbo64 , Jul 08 '04
Pros: Light, inexpensive, good flash
Cons: Terrible color balance, exposure, slow shutter response time
I already had a digital camera I was happy with - a little Casio QVR 4 megapixel. But one day I found myself out of town, and needed a simple digital camera in a hurry. Rushed into the nearest shop and laid down $250 Canadian for an HP Photosmart 435, ...

Pros: Small, lightweight, easy to use! Color or black and white photo..you choose!
Cons: Batteries just don't last! Image quality not awesome.
I can't say much, this little camera has served me well. I received it as a Christmas gift from my parents about two years ago and it's still working properly and I haven't had any technical problems of any sort as of yet. If you want high quality ...

Pros: Small and light, easy to use, easy to download pictures onto computer
Cons: picture quality, batteries do not last long
I got this camera for my birthday because I wanted a camera that would take better pictures than my old digital camera. It's a very nice camera but I've already come across a few annoying problems. 1. When you take pictures of something from a ...

An awesome birthday present

by lnknpgirl2113 , Nov 18 '03
Pros: Image quality, easy to use
Cons: Batteries run out quickly
OK, I'm not an expert on the technical things about the camera, so don't expect that. But I'll do my best. First off, I got this camera about a week ago for my 18th birthday (thanks Dad!). Not knowing that there were a pair of batteries included, my ...

A Good All-Around Camera!

by elproximo , Mar 29 '07
Pros: Unique Styling, great all-purpose easy to use camera, quality photos.
Cons: A battery piglet (not hog) and small LCD screen.
First let me get my bias with HP cameras out of the way - I originaly purchased the HP Photosmart 735 and was very disappointed and eventually returned it as well as my enthusiasm for digital cameras. Given only the option of and exchange for 'equal or ...
