Amazon.com Product Description
With a sleek exterior and intuitive easy-to-use features, the 3.2-megapixel HP Photosmart M307 digital camera is small and light enough to take with you anywhere. The Photosmart M307 digital camera has an aluminum front and rubberized back and offers HPs Instant Share feature, which lets you preset the destination of individual images to either email or print directly as soon as the camera is connected to a PC or printer. It also features a 3x optical zoom, large 1.8-inch LCD, 16 MB of internal memory, and compatibility with Secure Digital memory cards.

Optics and Resolution
The Photosmart M307 has a 3.2-megapixel resolution for images up to 2048 x 1536 for print enlargements up to 11 x 17 inches. It also offers a 1280 x 960 (1MP) and 640 x 480 (VGA) pixel options. The autofocus 3x optical zoom lens (6-18mm; 40-111mm equivalent in 35mm photography) features a 5x digital zoom, for 15x total.

Movie and Audio Modes
In addition to capturing still images, the Photosmart M307 can also record video with sound that's limited only by the available memory (either internal or external memory card). Videos are captured at 320 x 240 pixels (QVGA) at 30 frames per second (fps). You can also make voice recordings of up to 60 seconds.

More Features
With a metallic finish, asymmetric body styling, signature curves and "wave-style" fingergrip, as well as clear and natural controls, this digital camera provides convenience and comfort. Its large 1.8-inch color LCD screen has a high 130-pixel resolution and can be easily viewed even in outdoor conditions. The fast-shot mode ensures that no photo opportunities go to waste, with a rapid shutter lag for capturing all the action.

Storage and Transfer
The internal 16 MB memory can store eight images at the Best 3-megapixel setting (with each image approximately 1.6 MB). The camera also has a memory card slot that accepts Secure Digital (SD) and MultiMedia (MMC) cards.

HP Instant Share
HP Instant Share makes sharing, printing, and saving digital photos easy. With 34 programmable e-mail destinations, the user is able to share digital images with individuals or address lists straight from the camera. When the digital camera is later connected to a computer, either directly or via the optional camera dock, thumbnails of the selected photos are automatically sent to the pre-selected destination without burdening the recipient with large file attachments. E-mail recipients see thumbnails of the images in the body of the e-mail message, as well as a link to the web page where they can easily view, print, save, and upload the photos to online albums.

Power and Size
The camera is powered by two AA batteries; two photo lithium AA batteries are included, but NiMH rechargeable batteries are recommended for their longer life while shooting. The Photosmart M307 measures 1.4 x 4.3 x 2.1 inches and weighs 4.8 ounces.

What's in the Box
This package contains the HP Photosmart M307 digital camera, 2 AA photo lithium batteries, USB cables (for connecting to PC and to printer), wrist strap, CD-ROM with HP Image Zone software for Microsoft Windows and Macintosh and American Greetings Create and Print Greeting Cards software.

5 out of 5 stars Great Camera if you set it up right   December 15, 2009
L. Goldberg (MO United States)
I agree with the positive reviews already here. A previous review said the battieries died rapidly. HP has a firmware upgrade on it's website. You've absolutely have to download and install it - makes it like a brand-new camera. And you'll be able to use whatever batteries you like after the upgrade is installed.


1 out of 5 stars WHAT EVER YOU DO, DO NOT BUY THIS CAMERA!!!!!!   September 6, 2008
Olivia E. (San Diego, Ca.)
I didn't get the camera from amazon. Mine came with a pinter. JUNK, JUNK, JUNK! Batteries never lasted more than a day wether the we rechargeables or not. That's even if i could get the stupid thing to stay on or turn on at all. I even sent it back and got a new one from the company and that one was worse than the first one!!!!!!!!!!! Buyer beware: Cheap and not worth the headache.


2 out of 5 stars Don't Buy Reconditioned   January 7, 2008
Larry A. Fast (Texas, USA)
Purchased two cameras. Scratches on both, one doesn't work at all. Never buy reconditioned products.


5 out of 5 stars Descent camera for the price!   August 31, 2006
Lexman
As some already mentioned, battery life is not long, but with a couple of rechargeable batteries, you should be fine. After all, you will have a descent camera at a low price!


1 out of 5 stars TERRIBLE camera!   July 26, 2006
L. Casillas (Fort Worth, Texas United States)

I wish I could give this camera NEGATIVE 10 stars!!!

The screen died on me after a few months of use. I did not drop it or anything--it just froze up and went black. It acted like it was taking a picture, but there was no picture. HP said it was a 'hardware' issue, so they sent me another one. A month after my year warranty was up (keep in mind that this replacement camera was NOT a year old, but my year warranty from my original purchase date was up), it happened again. Basically, both of these cameras did not last a year.

Plus, the camera EATS batteries, and the connection to the computer via USB sometimes wouldn't work, which I've read elsewhere this is a common problem with this camera.

DON'T BUY IT! Try a Canon instead. My sister swears by Canon and has not been disappointed. I should have listened to her, but I thought HP would be more compatible with my computer. Boy, I was WRONG!!!
