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.

nice camera, lousy support. avoid........2005-09-01

had a mini2 and loved it. Bought a Mini3 in the US and took home to UK. Images were blurred in parts. Spent time talking with Mustek support in Germany, Mustek support in UK, dealer in US and finally Mustek support in US. Gave up and threw the camera away - they were not actually interested in solving the problem, just in their processes, passing me on to someone else and making me do all the all work. totally infuriating.

You should have negative star ratings.......2005-08-02

This "camera" should be rated a -5...the adage "you get what you pay for" applies to every aspect of this camera. It's flimsy and problematic to operate, never mind that the soft ware crashed my computer and didn't include enough instructions to allow photo retrieval from the camera OR the computer. I actually threw the camera in the garbage.

Oh my, could it be any worse?.......2005-06-11

This item is absolutely a waste of money and time. I bought it just to take pictures for ebay. Quick and dirty, as it were. Well, it is horrible for stills and cannot create a decent image in even good lighting conditions. Blurry and poorly lit. I only wish the rating system had something less than 1 star.

Not worth the money.......2004-06-24

I bought this camera knowing it would not be the best, but i was greatly dissapointed. There is no flash, so unless if you are outside in the daytime, it doesnt work. The picutres are not of great qualtity. If i were you, I wouldn't waste my money on this

Doesn't work.......2007-01-16

I have a Dell XPS PC running Windows XP. I have USB2.0 drives. So this card reader should be plug and play, but it doesn't work at all with my PC. My recommendation is steer clear of this product.

Fast!.......2007-01-10

Thought I had a good card reader until I got this one! It used to take me 20+ minutes to transfer 2 gigabytes of photos, but now I can transfer the whole 2 gigs in under 5 minutes! It's a great product.

Horrible waste of money.......2007-01-06

I got this so I could read my digital camera card from an old computer. It doesn't work at all. Don't bother.
