HP Deskjet 6940 - Excellent Value.......2007-06-27

Excellent value for around $125. Multiple quality settings. "Best" quality more than suitable for professional business proposals, etc. Black & color cartridges, easy to install. Reliable - Daily use for 2 months and have not yet experienced a paper jam. Recommended!

Not good printer.......2007-06-08

Not a good printer. It boasts high speeds, but at high speeds the print is shadowed and very hard to read. I sent this one back and got a Canon MP600 and am very happy with it.

Excellent Quality.......2007-05-17

I have had a number of HP deskjets over the years...this one lives up to the excellent quality HP is known for. Black text prints super-fast, and colors are vibrant. I printed a black and white photo using HP Premium Plus Photo paper, and a photographer friend upon seeing it, asked when I had gotten a darkroom. Highly recommend this product.

Excellent Printer.......2007-05-12

I would highly recommend this printer. Pages are printed quick with great clarity. The price is definitely right as well.

Beware the paper tray and wonky network setup for Mac.......2007-04-11

I just finished setting this guy up. It took about an hour and, as with so many devices these days, the boxed instructions were no help. I think it bears saying that I'm a Mac user, and have been for going on 20 years now. Manufacturers are really out of excuses for not having any Mac specific support on their devices, especially ones that proudly trumpet their Mac support right on the box.
Having said that, I spent the majority of time trying to get the printer to see the network, the Macs to see the printer and the printer to see the paper. Unless the tray is absolutely packed with paper--begging for a jam--then the printer balks at any printing.

Thank goodness for Apple's Bonjour, which allowed me to see the printer despite HP's software ultimately failing to be helpful.
After the setup nightmare, which really isn't any big deal when compared to most any printer you buy that isn't an Epson, the print quality is good and fast. I'd love this printer more if the setup weren't so mysterious. Ethernet is a nice feature at this price point, too. Good product, poor execution.

I love this camera.......2007-07-03

I take about 1500 pictures a year, and previously used a Canon PowerShot S400 4MP - which was a great camera: easy to use, very portable, and took great photos. I started doing some digital editing of my photos (photoshop) and found that I needed more than 4 MegaPixels. So, I looked at the latest Canon and found that the 7MP PowerShot was the same price as HP's 10MP camera. Hmmm, tempting, they seemed to match each other in size and function, but HP seemed to edge it in a few funtions and 50% more pixels! ... so I gambled on HP.

My first concern was that HP would not take as good photos as Canon. Well, I was wrong on that. HP takes great photos ... and has this great feature called "adaptive lighting" that automatically brightens pictures taken in dim light. Wowzers! That's an amazing function. You can watch on the crystal clear 3" display as your dull photo is automatically transformed into a great photo a second or two after you've taken it. Wow!

My second concern was that it would not have the full range of features that I was used to on my Canon Powershot- panorama stitching, zoom, close-up, etc. Well, I was even more wrong on that. This camera is *packed* full of features:
-Firstly, it has an excellent user interface that's really easy to use. The clear on-screen menu is easy to navigate and explains how to get the most of each function as you go, and is also very quick to navigate.
-Secondly, it has instant red-eye removal (that really works) - I've now taken about 900 photos with my HP and I'd estimate maybe 1 or 2 red-eyes have crept by, all other have been removed automatically. I'm impressed.
-Thirdly, it has a ton of other funtions my Canon didn't have -- e.g. burst mode, auto-settings for different lighting situations, etc -- and a beautiful 3" screen that's the clearest I've seen.

I've owned this camera for about 7 months and it's a delight. There are a few things that can be improved, e.g. travel recharging without needing to carry the dock with you, button placement to prevent occassionally accidentally pushing on-off ... there's always something ... but these are really minor compared to the excellent picture quality and great features included.

If you're like I was and wondering if you should gamble on HP, go for it. I'm not looking back!

Amazing .......2007-06-22

I absolutely love my camera. It does everything it says (by the manufacturer), and it does it without hassle.
This camera:
-is very easy to use
-is sleek in design
-is handy
-takes amazing pictures
-takes high quality pictures
-has a sufficient battery life
-has many features
-**and the list goes on

I have many HP products (my laptop, desktop, two digital cameras, two photo/copier/fax/scanner printers, Pocket PC) and I am always satisfied. This camera has not ever let me down (I've owned it for a few months now). I have had many compliments on the camera and the features and pictures it takes. I would most definitely recommend this camera to anyone.
Buy with confidence!!!

Just Great!.......2007-05-31

The Camera is excelent ! I mean, pics look amazing ! (haha, I'm not a expert ). The only thing that I don't like about it, it is that almost need flash in every pic...anyway, it is a great product. Ahhh, and if you want to take photos to your lil kids, it is too slow for that XD !

HP Photosmart R967 10MP .......2007-05-14

It's an excellent camara, I'll recommended, you can get a lot of it, but you should buy a SD to get better results.

10 MP! Great viewing screen.......2007-03-16

I've had the R967 camera for three months. I bought it because 1)I've always had great service from HP, and 2) I wanted more resolution than the 5MP camera I was using.

The camera is a stainless steel box, and has a very sturdy feel. On/off is easy and the 3" focus/viewing screen is nice. There are a myriad of features on this camera, including adaptive low-light shooting and the ever-popular "slimming" feature. I've used the low-light feature, and it worked quite well (sample size=1 LOL)..

A few observations: in low light I had trouble getting the "macro" feature to focus, the document feature is great, who needs a scanner? great resolution, excellent pictures, I'm not wild about the feature buttons on top of the camera.. I've hit one or more by accident.

Over all I'm quite pleased with the camera and I recommend it.

Neat, well made & surprisingly large amount of storage space.......2007-03-01

I bought this case for an HP Photosmart A516 printer and it's absolutely ideal for this printer and the other HP printers of the same dimensions. Although the case looks small and sleek when closed, it actually has space for a surprisingly large amount of 'stuff' - Obviously the main compartment holds the printer itself, but there are various other useful slots and spaces to pop your AC and USB cables, the battery, a pack of paper and a few other small items you might want to carry. The bag also has light padding throughout which adds a certain amount of protection from bumps, and a sturdy, quite comfortable shoulder strap. A well designed bag all round, IMHO.

Tight fit for the 475.......2006-05-11

I own the HP 475 and since it's slightly larger then the rest, the printer barely fits in the case. It does fit but it is very tight. I would not recommend this for the 475. Probably I shouldn't have bought this but I really liked the case.

A fairly decent bundle for a beginner........2007-05-02

About a year ago I was looking for a camera/printer bundle because I was interested in taking/printing pictures to make scrapbooks. I had owned a couple digital cameras before this one but figured I might as well buy a new one since printers alone are so much money. If I was spending money on a printer, I might as well get a new camera to go with it. ESPECIALLY if it would cost me next to nothing to get the camera. So I found this bundle on Amazon. I noted that it had 5 megapixels and 3x optical zoom which is pretty darn good. And HP is a decent brand. So I went ahead and bought it.

Now for my review of the camera. Let me first start off by saying that I'm not a camera expert by any means. However, I do know what I want my pictures to look like and I do know that there ARE cameras out there that can take really good pictures (I know this because the camera that I'm currently using is one of those cameras). One thing that I didn't want is a camera that takes a while to process after taking a picture. Not only does this camera take a while to process pictures, but if you move even slightly within 5 seconds after taking a picture, the picture comes out blurry. This is extremely inconvenient if you need to take several pictures in a row very quickly or if you want to take a picture of someone in movement or if your subject is jumpy (I know this because my cousin owns this camera as well and has trouble taking pictures of her 8 month old daughter). Also, the brightness doesn't always show what the true brightness is. I know how to use the flash and I understand what ISO settings are so I don't think that I'm the problem. I've taken plenty of pictures using other cameras and haven't had this problem. As far as the options on the camera, they are decent. You can play around with different settings to alter your photos (like changing the picture to black and white or sepia). These options are a little bonus.

The screen is a good size. No problems there whatsoever. The internal memory is typical. Most cameras can only hold a handful of pictures so an SD card is a necessary purchase.

As for the printer, I don't have any real problems with it. I'll admit that I've only used it with the few photo papers that came with the printer. The pictures that I DID print came out looking like pictures that you get developed. So if it's easier for you to use this printer instead of going to a drugstore to get them developed, this printer is a great option. The picture looks exactly like how it was taken. Nothing was cropped out of the original picture. The printing time isn't too long so if you want to print multiple pictures at once, time is not a huge problem. One thing that I did like about the printer is that you can dock the camera on it. Not only does docking charge the camera (let's face it, camera batteries die pretty often), but it also lets you review the pictures you took. This is pretty handy if you don't have a computer around.

So would I recommend this bundle? If this is your first digital camera and you're ok with a) having pictures with incorrect brightness and b) having to play with the camera a bit to get a good picture, go for it. I think it's a great bundle if you're scrapbooking and don't necessarily need to get "the perfect shot". Or if you're purchasing this just for the printer, that's a great idea too. However, if you've owned a digital camera before and want accurate pictures, I'd skip on this bundle. I have a Sony DSC-H2 and it works wonderfully (no playing around with the camera to get a good shot... just press the shutter and you've got a good picture). You truly get what you pay for. I'd suggest testing out cameras at a store before buying one.. If I had tested this one at a store, I would have passed on it hands down.

Very good for the money.......2007-03-16

I've had the camera for over a year, and taken several thousand pictures with it. It's pretty darn good overall. I've been pleased with the image quality, especially for scenery shots. It does fall somewhat short with portraits of people in many cases, though. Easy to use. Minor durability problems.

A good deal, a fair camera.......2007-02-13

I had to have the camera replaced by HP because it never really would stay "on" for more than a few shots. The process was so bad, I'll never by another HP camera. The printer is the older series, using #95 cortridges, so they are not waterproof. But it prints just fine.

Easy to use.......2007-02-13

Gave this to the in-laws for Cristmas and they were taking pictures the next time we went to visit. Definitely buy additional memory, the internal memory is really more of a back-up.

A nice, handy camera.......2007-02-11

This camera works great. And the batteries last quite awhile too. Good quality pictures. A good deal for the price.
