HP / Hewlett-Packard Photosmart R837 Digital Camera

Features
Specifications

The Hewlett-Packard Photosmart R837 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 7.2-megapixels of resolution for beautiful prints and enlargements up to poster-size.

The HP Precision zoom lens provides the ability to get close to your subjects with 24x total zoom (3x optical, 8x digital), and this innovative camera even helps you prevent blurred photos with the special steady-photo "anti-shake" feature. HP Real Life Technologies such as in-camera red-eye removal, panorama preview, image enhancement, and HP Image Advice, combined with a range of easy to use shooting modes ensures that your images from the Photosmart R837 are always the best possible.

The incredibly large and bright 3.0" display makes it easy to frame and review your shots, plus it aids in the use of the built-in editing technology that is available to you. Furthermore, the camera is equipped with 32MB of built-in memory to store your images and the memory is expandable with Secure Digital (SD) memory cards up to 2GB of capacity.

• 7.2 Megapixel Resolution: Get beautiful prints and enlargements with true-to-life detail and photo quality prints up to 20" x 30" thanks to 7.2 megapixels of effective resolution.

• 3x Optical Zoom: The HP Precision internal optical zoom lens is combined with 8x digital zoom for an incredible total zoom of 24x so you'll get crisp, clear, and detailed shots from a distance.

• Anti-shake Mode: Prevent blur and get crisp shots in low light, without a flash, using HP Steady Photo Anti-shake mode. This mode takes advantage of the high ISO capabilities of the camera to provide the fastest shutter sped possible and reduce blur cause by either subject or photographers movement.

• Record Video and Print Video stills: The Photosmart R837 Digital Camera can record VGA and QVGA quality Video at up to 24 fps and includes HP video print technology that lets you select a single video frame to save as a separate still image. Video print uses special image processing techniques to extract a frame from the video, improve the quality, reduce video compression artifacts, and create a still image from any frame in the video.

• HP Real Life Technologies
