I don't have a photoprinter by HP but I have a photosmart camera, 3.2 megapixel. It's okay, but not on a professional level. The images come out somewhat fuzzy on a closer scale. The best cameras are Sony, Nikon CoolPix cameras, and some Canons as far as picture quality goes in my opinion. I'm an art major working toward my BFA in Painting, but for a while I was a Photography major. The best photo printers are Epsons, but perhaps I'm just biased.

I guess it depends on what you plan to do with the camera and what kind of pictures you want to take. HP makes pretty decent printers and if you can get a sample shot printed from it prior to purchase depending on your satisfaction with the quality of the print that should be your main decision maker on that scale. Also be aware that if you're going to be say, printing a book a photo printer isn't the best choice because the quality is definitely inferior on that level. As for HP cameras I've never had any personal luck with them. As the previous poster stated HP camera's are 'ok' but for true quality I'd look at another brand. I'm a very big fan of Canons, but Nikons are also solid pieces of machinery, along with the sonys, in terms of reliable picture quality and satisfaction.

i really don't like that printer. I do recommend the Epson series or the Canon series. But that's just my two cents...the camera? i never heard of. I have a nikon d80, it's really cool. look in to it. your shopping smart and researching, good luck!
