Customer Reviews:
Great little camera.......2007-06-12
This camera was easy to use, and I love being able to take both video and still shots with the same camera. It's hard to see the object you are shooting when you are in the sun, but it took some great pictures.
HP Photosmart R817 5MP Digital Camera with 5x Optical Zoom & R-series Dock Bundle.......2007-05-13
This camera is a very nice camera with dock. I am impressed with it's Pentax lens. It is much better than brand "K" that I replaced it with.
Not recommended..........2007-04-08
I bought this item as a gift, and it ended up becoming mine. I have to say, I am greatly dissatisfied. Here are some main issues I am having with the camera:
1. It is very poorly designed. The look and the feel of the camera are not elegant. Buttons are really ugly, and operating the camera is awkward, and for some functions requires both hands to operate..
2. The camera has been having issues with turning on and off occasionally.
3. The worst, by far, is the picture quality. Colors are just plain terrible. Automatic settings are a disaster of photography. I have used a Canon (2MP) before getting this one (5MP). The Canon was far superior in quality, colors, lighting.. I don't need large files of trash, I am perfectly fine with smaller files with great pictures.
As a result, I am strongly recommending getting a different camera. I have had great experiences with Canon; and seems like Sony and Nikon are doind a good job too. But HP must stop making cameras, and indeed many other devices..
Great Camera.......2007-01-09
Very clear pictures, very happy with this camera. Note that it has only the LCD screen and no viewfinder, but this hasn't been a problem for me as it's pretty easy to use.
Great camera.......2007-01-05
This is a great camera - especially for the price. HP makes the camera-computer interface software very user-friendly and it takes great pictures as well. It has a nice big LCD screen and the Lithium-Ion battery lasts for a long time for me. I recommend this camera very highly.

Customer Reviews:
Definitely pleased.......2006-04-22
I first borrowed an r817 (same as r818 except for color) from a friend for a trip to the grand canyon and a trip to Vegas. I was a little worried about the lack of a view finder (only LCD) because I thought it may not work well in bright light or might run the batteries out, but I quickly got over that worry. The camera did incredibly well in the bright sun light at the grand canyon and I never had battery problems. The panorama mode was awesome! I was able to create some phenomenal shots using it at the grand canyon.
So, I purchased the r818 (same as r817 except for color) myself about a month ago and I am very, very pleased with my purchase. The camera is small, light-weight and does not compromise on quality. It is also very easy to use. I actually considered a higher megapixel camera, but after my experience with the quality of photos from my aforementioned trip using the r817 I simply didn't see a need for the additional megapixels. I actually decided that 5x optical zoom was more valuable to me than the competing 3x optical zoom.
My only nitpick on this camera are that the indoor shots can occasionally come out a little off color. However, the image zone software that comes with does a good job with correcting it. This is my third digital camera in the last 4 years and I have to say that I am the most pleased with this one. It is really easy to use and has loads of extra little features.
Review of HP Photosmart R818 5MP Camera.......2006-02-28
This camera is awesome! I love the quality of the pictures. It is just fantastic. I love to take pictures of everything for my scrapbooks and I was really worried about jumping to a digital camera, but I wish I would have done it sooner! Great Camera!
Excellent camera.......2006-02-25
I love this camera. Its 5x optical zoom is great. You just need a good SD card (I prefer 1GB or 2GB). Comes with 2 batteries.
Nice camera!
good camera in a small form factor.......2005-12-12
The HP R817 and R818 cameras provide a good balance between small, convenient camera size, and good zoom. With a 5x optical zoom before digital zoom kicks in, it's very flexible, and can bring distance objects reasonably close. There are cameras with more optical zoon factors, but most in form factors much larger than this HP. There are cameras with image stablization (starts to become a necessity if you don't have a tripod and you're getting up to 10x), but again they would probably be larger -- in some cases, much larger. Many other cameras in the same size range would only offer 3X optical zoom. This camera is small enough to fit in your pocket and not worry about it.
The R818 incarnation differs from the R817 in that the 818 is a dark gray and comes with an extra battery, rather than the shinier silver R817. Note that there are also some offerings where the 818 comes with a optional dock, rather than the 'cradle' that comes with the basic models. The cradle holds the camera and mates with the built-in connector on the bottom, and provides the USB and power connectivity for data transfer and charging. The dock adds the features of being able to charge a battery outside of the camera, which would match up well with the second battery that comes with the R818; it also provides a TV-out capability for watching slideshows (and presumably the video clips these cameras can record, but I haven't confirmed that).
The user interface was fairly intuitive for me, which was a marked difference from some other cameras.
This camera has worked well for me, under a variety of situations.
