DO NOT BUY the Quick Recharge Kit - HP Photosmart Q6270 ! I ordered one from Amazon only to learn too late, from HP over the phone, that it is not compatible with the r742 camera, despite the fact that it is shown as an accessory within the r742 brochure. HP online allows you to order the recharge cradle, item L2508-80001, but not the req'd AC cord, item L2508-80002. Go figure ! What a racket !!

From my searching, the only place I've been able to find the charger is ordering through HP directly by phone. The cradle (Model #L2508-80001) is $19.36 and the adapter (Model #L2508-80002) is $20.75. You have to purchase both for the charger to work. If I can't find anything better, I'm gonna have to get this...geez...half the price of the whole camera.
