Definitely pleased.......2006-04-22

I first borrowed an r817 (same as r818 except for color) from a friend for a trip to the grand canyon and a trip to Vegas. I was a little worried about the lack of a view finder (only LCD) because I thought it may not work well in bright light or might run the batteries out, but I quickly got over that worry. The camera did incredibly well in the bright sun light at the grand canyon and I never had battery problems. The panorama mode was awesome! I was able to create some phenomenal shots using it at the grand canyon.

So, I purchased the r818 (same as r817 except for color) myself about a month ago and I am very, very pleased with my purchase. The camera is small, light-weight and does not compromise on quality. It is also very easy to use. I actually considered a higher megapixel camera, but after my experience with the quality of photos from my aforementioned trip using the r817 I simply didn't see a need for the additional megapixels. I actually decided that 5x optical zoom was more valuable to me than the competing 3x optical zoom.

My only nitpick on this camera are that the indoor shots can occasionally come out a little off color. However, the image zone software that comes with does a good job with correcting it. This is my third digital camera in the last 4 years and I have to say that I am the most pleased with this one. It is really easy to use and has loads of extra little features.

Review of HP Photosmart R818 5MP Camera.......2006-02-28

This camera is awesome! I love the quality of the pictures. It is just fantastic. I love to take pictures of everything for my scrapbooks and I was really worried about jumping to a digital camera, but I wish I would have done it sooner! Great Camera!

Excellent camera.......2006-02-25

I love this camera. Its 5x optical zoom is great. You just need a good SD card (I prefer 1GB or 2GB). Comes with 2 batteries.
Nice camera!

good camera in a small form factor.......2005-12-12

The HP R817 and R818 cameras provide a good balance between small, convenient camera size, and good zoom. With a 5x optical zoom before digital zoom kicks in, it's very flexible, and can bring distance objects reasonably close. There are cameras with more optical zoon factors, but most in form factors much larger than this HP. There are cameras with image stablization (starts to become a necessity if you don't have a tripod and you're getting up to 10x), but again they would probably be larger -- in some cases, much larger. Many other cameras in the same size range would only offer 3X optical zoom. This camera is small enough to fit in your pocket and not worry about it.

The R818 incarnation differs from the R817 in that the 818 is a dark gray and comes with an extra battery, rather than the shinier silver R817. Note that there are also some offerings where the 818 comes with a optional dock, rather than the 'cradle' that comes with the basic models. The cradle holds the camera and mates with the built-in connector on the bottom, and provides the USB and power connectivity for data transfer and charging. The dock adds the features of being able to charge a battery outside of the camera, which would match up well with the second battery that comes with the R818; it also provides a TV-out capability for watching slideshows (and presumably the video clips these cameras can record, but I haven't confirmed that).

The user interface was fairly intuitive for me, which was a marked difference from some other cameras.

This camera has worked well for me, under a variety of situations.

Product Description

Do you ever have confidential information or other sensitive material on your computer monitor that you don't want others to see? If you do, then you need a privacy filter. 3M privacy filters make on-screen data visible only to the person directly in front of the monitor. This not only helps reduce the stress and inconvenience associated with trying to conceal these sensitive materials, but can also improve productivity by allowing you to continue working with confidential information, even when others are nearby. In addition this filter reduces screen glare and enhances contrast. It can improve your productivity by helping prevent eyestrain, blurred vision and headaches.Patented 3M micro louver technology protects confidential information; on-screen data is only visible to someone directly in front of monitor. This filter works like tiny "Venetian blinds" - no blurring or image distortion; from the side, passersby see only a dark, blank screen. It reduces glare up to 95% and blocks up to 99% ELF/VLF E-field radiation. The filter features Scotchgard Protection for Easy Clean Surface - wipes clean with damp cloth. It reduces static and dust build up. This 3M Privacy filter fits 19" -21" monitor sizes.

3m privacy filter for a 20" monitor - good product.......2007-08-09

I needed a larger privacy filter when my computer monitor was upgraded to 20 inches. This 3m monitor does exactly what it advertises. You cannot view the screen contents at all unless you are directly in front of the monitor. Through Amazon, I got the best price I could find for this product which is very expensive, even as compared to the same 3m screen in smaller sizes. I am very pleased with this purchase.
