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.

5 of 5 Great price, great camera Wednesday, July 09, 2008
Nefaria from New York, NY  
I thought this would have been an average camera for the price I got it. I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent picture quality, the very intuitive control panel and the cameras capabilities. This is no knock off! PROS: Pentax optics, full featured, great resolution, big 2.4" hi res display, excellent price. Just as good as, if not better, than a lot of higher priced cameras out there. CONS: Small internal memory, a bit bulky compared to other models

4 of 5 Solid product but wheres the memory card? Monday, June 30, 2008
A Customer from San Jose, CA  
HP is a solid product and I felt confident getting such a great deal. I bought this as a gift so I never opened the box. As it was unwrapped I was a bit disappointed/embarrassed because it did not come with a memory card not even a couple of kb to take 8-12 pictures also it came with standard alkaline batteries with a note saying these were just to get you started but you should buy lithium batteries in the future. So the gift was appreciated but the recipient wasn't able to use it which was very disappointing.

5 of 5 Amazing Camera Thursday, June 05, 2008
A Customer from Crossett , AR  
This camera comes loaded with excessories that can't be matched with the price that I paid for it, I have compared others with the same features and the price range doubles and even triples this one. Great quality ,great buy, great product there's nothing more to ask for, because it's almost free with all the luxuries it comes with.

1 of 5 DON'T BUY THIS CAMERA! Saturday, May 31, 2008
Jen from Ft. Worth, TX  
This camera was shipped quickly after I ordered it. That's as far as a positive review goes for this camera. Oh, wait, and the video is pretty good when the lighting is right. The 737 takes FOREVER to snap a picture, so forget about getting good pics in the moment. I bought this camera because my other one went out after several years of good use and my son's first birthday was approaching and I needed a good camera for the party. I was not able to take one good picture! Also, when the room is dimly lit or dark, you cannot see anything that you are trying to shoot; the flash does not light up for you to focus your shot. I tried taking pictures of my son while he was sleeping in his swing, but the picture was always cut off at the top or the bottom because I just had to guess where the lens was focused. I am extremely displeased with this camera and now have to spend even more money on a camera that I can depend on.

5 of 5 Nice Camera Monday, May 19, 2008
A Customer from Baltimore, Maryland  
I bought this camera for my 30 year old daughter. She is very pleased with its features and performance. I tried it only once and have these opinions... The camera is small and fits nicely inside a shirt pocket. It has a large LCD display, and the camera takes sharp pictures. My only complaint is that the optional SD memory card is located inside the same compartment as the batteries. The plastic battery compartment clip has to be slid open to retrieve the memory card. This is no major problem but I prefer to have the memory card behind its own clip. Its for this reason that I give the camera a 4 star instead of a 5 star rating.

5 of 5 HP 737 Thursday, May 08, 2008
A Customer from NJ,USA  
I bought this camera last week. It takes great pictures as the pixel is 8MP. I took some photos and downloaded them to my PC. They were very bright and clear. The night shots are just perfect. It has good menu options and easy to browse.The camera also looks slim and nice. I had a HP camera earlier with 5.3MP which also takes great pictures but eats battery like anything. I still have to check the battery life for this new one. The cons being the batter shuuter... is tough to open and looks very delicate.I feel like breaking it when i try to open.
