HP Photosmart R717 Review at CNET
CNET have published the first online review of the HP Photosmart R717, a 6.2 megapixel digicam with a 1.8 inch LCD screen and 3x optical zoom lens in a stylish stainless steel body.
“It has a well-conceived design, a few interesting features, and decent image quality, but the one thing that the 6.2-megapixel HP Photosmart R717 has in spades is a crippling case of sloth. We’re talking performance that makes you feel like you’re operating in bullet-time, like Keanu Reeves in The Matrix, without the benefits of superhuman reflexes or the ability to fly. But despite some redeeming qualities—a menu and control layout that are easy for even novices to master, an effective panorama mode, and a very good macro setting that yields sharp results—the R717’s subpar performance makes us hestitant to recommend it unreservedly.”
