The Hewlett-Packard Photosmart M527 Digital Camera is compact and easy to use, yet produces superb image quality and is loaded with features to make your shooting experience a pleasure. The camera produces images with 6-megapixels of resolution for beautiful prints and enlargements up to poster-size, and the HP Precision 3x optical zoom lens combined with a 7x digital zoom provides a total zoom of 21x.

In addition, the camera features HP Real Life technologies to help take the guesswork out of digital photography and make it easy to produce great photos that are crisp, realistic and true-to-life. HP Real Life technologies include the HP Design Gallery so users can add artistic effects and borders right in the camera - no PC or software required, in-camera red-eye removal to remove red-eye while images are still in the camera, in-camera Panorama Stitching stitches up to 5 photos together, and an on-camera button to easily order and share photos on Snapfish using HP Photosmart Express. Furthermore, you'll get HP Photosmart Software - a complete, easy-to-use software solution for editing, organizing, printing and sharing digital photos.
