Summary: Not too shabby; one complaint though..
Review: I wouldn't call myself a [digital] camera expert. I have a few friends with digicams and this my first one. All the features on this thing are great! Lightweight, practical, and it's not too slow taking pictures or loading them. It's fun to play around with, too. My camera drained AA's like nobody's business; but then I got rechargeable ones. Still, the battery power is a problem-- Enough to make you conscious of how long you leave it on, and how much you use the screen (which drains more power) rather than the oldfashioned viewfinder. Hope this helped, and GOOD LUCK with your search!

Summary: A fantastic camera for a great price!
Review: I'll admit it, I basically bought this camera because it was affordable (I got it for $149.99 at Target), and it had all the features I wanted in a digital camera. It's incredibly easy to use! I took it out of the box and started shooting photos about ten minutes later. There are so many nice features, too. It has a built-in flash (which can be modified to a red-eye reduction setting, a night setting, and other settings depending on what lighting you're using), optical and digital zoom, an LCD screen, and much more. I thought 2.1 megapixels wouldn't work well for me, but I've found that they are perfect for me. Most of the photos I take are just for fun, for my website, for selling items on eBay, or just everyday use, so I don't need to print out photos any larger than 8 x 10. I would suggest buying a larger memory card for the camera if you want to take lots of pictures at one time. Mine came with a 32MB card, and that takes about 35 pictures (if you use the highest quality setting -- more if you use a lesser quality setting). Also, purchasing rechargable batteries is a very good idea, seeing as the camera goes through batteries fairly quickly. Basically, if you're looking for a camera that's easy to use, takes fantastic photos and is affordable...this is the camera to buy. It's great for first-time digital camera buyers (like me).

Summary: The following ad - $129.00 New - is wrong!!!
Review: Please be aware that the ad for "$129.00 from Seller: web-tail" is not for the camera!!!
I sent an inquiry to the seller last night to see if it's an opened item and he replied with the following: "Yes, the printer is brand new in factory packaging. The only thing is that it comes in a bundle box and the camera has been removed. The printer itself is never opened. It comes with brand new (unopened) ink cartridges also. Pls write us again if you have any more question." Apparently, he made a mistake as a beginner here and still doesn't seem to know how to correct it yet since I already warned him. I am an absolute supporter for amazon.com and I don't want people like me to waste time with this kind of wrong product delivery. Please skip the following ad go for another one (in fact, this is the first time I encountered this kind of fiasco from amazon): "BRAND NEW in Retail Box! Contents includes: Wrist Strap, 2 AA Batteries, USB Cable, User's Manual, Dock insert, Lens Cap & Tether, HP Program CD."

Summary: Perfect All in 1 Camera
Review: The HP 635 is everything you need combined into a sleek, easy to use, bar-none great quality camera.
If you use other HP products, even better. Loads and prints in a jiffy.
Don't sell yourself short by not using the Movie function. It's a blast to make quick video clips on the fly. I suggest getting more memory if you plan on making alot of videos.
Enjoy!

Summary: You get what you pay for
Review: This an acceptable digital camera, not much more. It's a solid value if you find it for less than $75 or so, but I personally would pay more for a Kodak or Olympus with similar specs next time around.
Pros:
-Low price
-Reliable 3X zoom
-Good outdoor capabilities
-Reasonably logical navigation menus
-Excellent USB connection and PC photo download/edit software
Cons:
-One of the worst battery-eaters I've ever used
-Poor color saturation: certains blues and greens are way off and can't be corrected
-Dumb firmware programming: Forgets all settings when switched off (even with batteries installed) and occasionally bugs out. There is also an error in the brightness modulation.
-Pretty poor for closeup work: misinterprets light levels and more often than not can't capitalize on its 2 MP power.
Overall, it's a good value if you pick it up cheap enough, but next time I won't look for an HP camera any more than I would a Kodak printer.

Summary: HP 635 Battery Problem
Review: This camera does a lot for what u have paid. I bought this camera a couple of weeks back and there were some problems with self timer 2 shots. Later I found that those problems are related to the battery and not to the software. Yes. It eats up battery very fast, which you cannot afford. I have 4 NiMH rechargable batteries with me and I can take only around 40 pictures (half of them with LCD off). Buy this camera if you are planned to use with AC adapter. Otherwise step away from this product.

Summary: Horrible battery life, good camera otherwise
Review: This camera takes awesome pics for the value, but you will make up for it with all the batteries you will need to purchase! I took this camera to a car show after having it for a couple months and took a 10 pack of batteries with me, I used all 10 batteries up within 2 hours and only took about 80 pictures! True you could get rechargable batteries, but you would still have to carry all of them around with you. I would reccomend finding another camera that is better on batteries, one that you could get away with not carring a small energizer plant in your pockets!

Summary: Great camera
Review: This camera takes very good pictures and is very easy to use. It has alot of features that anyone can master in a short time. HP has done a good job with this device and I would recommend it to anyone now getting into the digital photography hobby. As the other reviewers mentioned, it is a must to use rechargeable batteries and get more memory. For the price and features, try it and you will be impressed.

Summary: Great Camera
Review: This is a great camera. I have had it for about 2 weeks and the photo quality is awsome. The LCD is bright and clear, and the Movie mode is extremely fun to mess around with. The ONLY problem this camera has is that it eats up batteries to fast. Don't even attempt normal batteries and go strait to NIMH rechargables. Even then make sure you have 4 of them, two in the camera and two on standby. Well worth the money.
