Summary: Does NOT work with the HP Photosmart 612 Digital Camera
Review: Despite the Manufacturer's statement that this dock works with the HP Photosmart 612 Digital Camera it flat out does not. I recently checked out the dock (having not had an opportunity since purchasing it several months ago) and no where/no how does it work with the HP Photosmart Camera Dock 8881.......I went to the HP website to be sure and per the HP website, the 612 is NOT on the list of compatible cameras for the 8881 dock. Unfortunately, and lesson to be learned, I TRUSTED what I read on the Amazon page advertising this dock and purchased it as such. Now I am out quite a few bucks and it is probably too late to return it to Amazon (since don't have the packaging now, and the time frame of which it was purchased..... Warning: DON'T trust some things in print.........check it out FIRST through the manufacturer to be absolutely sure.....

Summary: Highly recommend
Review: I purchased the HP PS850 digital camera last month, and also ordered the Dock at the same time. I'm glad I did.The dock makes downloading your pictures so much easier, and it comes with 4 rechargeable batteries. Plus, the batteries recharge when the camera is in the dock. I've taken several hundred pictures on one charge, and I always use the LCD screen, as well as zoom in and out, review pictures, and delete them. Even with all that, the batteries have never run out on me. I highly recommend getting the dock for your HP digital camera.

Summary: Problems with Batteries
Review: I was very happy with my HP 850 and its charger base until about two weeks ago. The problem started when my camera would not go on, when I turned the on switch the only thing that would happen was the memory card light would flash about five times. After some time trying to get through to teck support I was told by them that batteries were causing the problem. It seems very silly to me since they were the ones supplied with the charge base. but sure enough when I changed the batteries the camera worked fine. this is the only problem I have had with the camera or the charge base in the six months I have had the camera.

Summary: Your going to want this !!
Review: I'm using this docking base with the HP PS850 which eats batteries in a very fast fashion... This will pay for itself in no time at all. Well worth the money and also easy to use..

Summary: Dock works great, rechargable batteries don't last
Review: I've been using this dock with my HP 812 for a couple months now. Dock works great for unloading pictures and recharging batteries. Much less hassle than using a cable. Only complaint is the batteries, Energizer NiMH AAs, don't hold much of a charge. Regular alkaline Duracell AAs last longer.

Summary: a good deal if you don't have a card reader or charger kit
Review: the hp 8881 is compatible with hp's 320, 620, 720, 812, 850 and 945 cameras. each camera comes with a dock insert so that they can use this universal cradle. this cradle is small, lightweight, and very portable. it charges the camera's NiMH battery pack, connects via USB to your computer for downloading files, and connects to a TV for slideshows. you don't really need this cradle since you can replicate its functions with a card reader, battery recharger kit, and RCA cables to connect to your TV. but it's a lot more convenient to just drop your camera into the cradle to download files and start recharging those batteries.... a final note. this cradle offers a regular usb computer connection. it would have been nice to have usb 2.0 for faster downloads but maybe for the next product iteration. i hope this helps you with your buying decision. peace.

Summary: Very nice for your camera to have a fully function home.
Review: This camera port is absolutely perfect for me because it gives me a place to keep it.
But that is just the least of it. While sitting in it's little cradle, it is charging it's batteries and tied directly to the computer.
I love this because you don't have to plug in, and unplug just to connect it to your computer. The same goes for charging. For that matter it's a plus not to have to remove the batteries just to charge them.
I guess I love it because it does everything I need it too by just setting it in it's home.
I must add one more thing, I certainly do like how when you set it in the cradle, my computer opens it up just like a hard drive.
This is a must to whomever owns a PhotoSmart.

Summary: Show your pictures on TV
Review: This is the best thing you can get if you have a PhotoSmart camera!!! It charges your batteries IN YOU CAMERA!! You can go to parties, take pictures, show the pictures on a TV and charge your batteries to boot. Your computer will automatically detect when you put the camera in the dock and open it up like a regular disk drive. This thing took every ounce of effort that makes digital photography a chore. So now I take thousands of pictures. I don't have to worry about charging the batteries, uploding the photos- just shoot and dock. Shoot and dock. That's how digital photography is supposed to be like.
