HP Photosmart R725 6.2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom
Bought an HP Photosmart R717 in the summer of 2005 for $324.74. 4 months after the camera warranty was up and after minimal usage the camera was displaying: 0000000F-10FB-1BD-024 Error Message, on the display screen.
When I called HP about getting my camera repaired I was told that it would be too expensive to repair. I was informed it would cost around $200.00 dollars to receive most likely a refurbished replacement camera, with only a 3-month warranty.
After trying the replacement camera for 15 days I was then to send my old camera back as partial payment for the replacement camera.
I told HP no thanks, because they had already gotten enough money from me.
This camera is very easy to use, the pictures are excellent. My family loves it!
I loved this camera at first. After about a year though, the charge just would not hold. Excellent camera besides that. Just be sure that if you plan on taking more than 10 pictures, have your charger ready to plug back into the wall. Then within minutes, it’ll show that it is completely charged again, yet within taking only a few more pictures the red screen will show, “Battery too Low to take Pictures”. I think I will get a new camera this Christmas.
I’ve had this camera for about a year now. I like HP products and figured this would be as great as most of their products. I was very disappointed though. I’ve had to return this camera to HP already because it kept giving me a red screen with an error message. They sent me a new camera for free and so far this one is doing decent. Also, as far as clarity goes, it kinda sucks. I suppose if you have never used a good quality camera then you might be inclined to think this one isn’t so bad. But believe me, there are better cameras out there for the money that you would spend on this one. If you can find this camera under $100 then I would say go for it but otherwise I don’t reccomend it at all. I have had webcams that take better pictures.
Also, if you are having issues with any HP product that you own, you can always call HP and tell them the problem and they will take the product back and send you a new one. I have to admit that HP has really good customer service. I also own an HP laptop and HP printer. I have had to return the printer to HP once and they sent me a new one a few days later for free.
I got on here to read reviews for this camera because I came across one new that I could buy for $80 and wanted to see if I should bother. What baffles me are the people that have written bad reviews for the camera, saying they are on their 5th or 6th one. IF YOU ARE HAVING SUCH TROUBLE WITH THIS CAMERA, WHY DO YOU KEEP GETTING ANOTHER ONE? MOVE ON. And to the lady that said she got on here to sell her R725 then she writes a bad review telling people not to buy it, could you get any denser?
