I bought this HP camera about 4 years ago. The camera has very good picture quality, and it is relatively easy to use. The zoom is a basic 3 x optical zoom, which I have felt have been insufficient for my needs on many occasions.

I must admit that although I think this camera has done a... Read full review »

Price for me was $0 as I got it from a rep as a seed model. Sorry...

They say that the determining factor in a digital camera is the lens. All "lenses" being equal, the HP Photosmart R707 is a great camera on features alone.
