HooToo® HT-IP206 Voucher

Chris (Denver, CO) : Unless you're a avid photography buff, you really don't need too many megapixels or very high-quality lenses. The 3.2 mp HP 735 is a fine camera. It reads the Secure Digital format which is preferable to CompactFlash. Storing a picture sometimes takes too long, especially when the camera first boots. Battery life it what I would expect from a digital camera. They all could make more efficient use of power. Overall a decent camera

Optimist (Kansas) : I bought this camera as a "fill-in" while I wait for the price of 5Mp+ SLR types to fall from $1K to <$500. Have used it for about a week. Pros are: Good quality lens - takes very good pictures (as good resolution/quality as most any 3.2 Mp). Simple user interface (most important stuff on three simple buttons on top with LCD display). Cons are: Movie mode is too low resolution and grainy. Has some delay between camera and playback mode (slow processor). I installed lithium batteries and have taken a few dozen photos and it still shows full battery, so this issue (complaints by others) has not bothered me. Overall, a good camera if it stays well below $200. If you can afford $250 to $300, you might look at others too (e.g. Canon A75 or A80).

Mary Jones "(Jan)" (Richmond, KY USA) : Only two months out of warranty I now face replacing this camera. I cannot take a photo--when I depress the button I get a message of "charging flash." After two calls to Technical support it still won't work and they offer (at $99 on up) that I can upgrade to a refurbished model. This sucks, especially since I'm expecting twin grandaughters to arrive in less than two days and I won't have a camera! Also this camera has a slow shutter--making me miss a lot of shots of a moving grandchild.
