 Horrible Camera November 6, 2008
Christina Lajoie
Worst camera ever. Pictures are dark, I've had it replaces 5 times, customer service is extremely poor and same error every time, charging battery and with a full battery nonetheless, which means you have to wait at least 60 seconds in between pictures. Very annoying, never would buy again
Really bad camera September 7, 2008
John B. Harkavy (Wellesley, MA USA)
My daughter has had two of these cameras. Both broke within two months. HP replaced both but since camera is now discontinued, I am not surprised it has been phased out. Go elsewhere for a point and shoot.
 Best Choice for Me July 28, 2008
Alice Robinson (Winnsboro, LA USA)
I have always wanted a digital camera, and after much research found the HP R742 Photosmart to be the best deal for the money and product. I originally wanted the Ruby Red, but I had Amazon bucks, and it wasn't available on Amazon yet. Turns out, color was not such a big deal, and the black one was a great choice. It is easy to use, and will not take the pic if you are out of focus or moving too much. The ease of downloading the images to my laptop is great and all of the camera functions are easy to use. I'm not a pro photographer, but I just can't take a bad picture thanks to HP R742.
HP R742 Photosmart Digital Camera (Black) July 7, 2008
F. M. Sauciunas (Suwanee, GA)
This is my families third HP R742 digital camera. It is very easy to use. It has a rechargeable battery with charger. This 7 mega-pixel camera takes excellent pictures. It comes in different colors witch is great because everyone in my family had a different color camera.
 Poor product service from HP July 6, 2008
Reader Cat (Pacific NW, USA)
This is an excellent camera and I've been delighted, but guess what? It's now no longer available and neither is a replacement charger for the battery. My charger got misplaced when we moved, and I thought, no problem I'll just go to the HP site and reorder. The charger is not available; no picture of it anywhere, no suggestion of an alternate item to buy. The online help referred me to the HP Parts store page, no mention of it there either. My opinion of HP has changed...they do not stand by their products.
