was a good camera
we used this camera for just over 3 years. it was great. never had any problems with it until the last 6 months or so. the camera would randomly not save the images. it would say "error saving image." if i turned camera off and then back on it usually worked like it should. i have no complaints about it really. it got dropped its share of times and tossed around plenty. we used it for as long as we could. finally had to give it up when the power switch fell off.

Been using this camera +5 years
ive had this camera for approximately 5 plus years now.
i purchased it after using an earlier model for work (auction sales). I still use the camera at work and it is fantastik! I use it on a daily basis.
I have taken many wonderful pictures which have printed out beautifully from a local photo shop. I was surprised at the quality as i thought pictures came out lousy, but when uploaded, i saw that they were beautiful!
I reckommended this camera for my pastors mom, unfortunately it does not seem to be in stock atm.

unpredictable, unreliable
This is my second of this model camera. The company had to send me a new one when the first one's screen fried itself. Now this one refuses to save pictures. I take a picture and it tells me "Error Saving Image" It is really annoying when you think you have the perfect shot and then it doesn't save!

Take all your photo equipment on the road with this self-contained, lightweight "studio", which includes a printer, camera, and docking station. That's right! HP Photosmart 425 GoGo Photo Studio is a 5.2 megapixel camera (3x optical, 7x digital zoom) and a compact 4 x 6" photo printer and a built-in camera dock - all rolled into one fun, easy-to-tote package!

good camera
I've had this camera for well over a year, and I love it. It does take a while to recharge its flash and that has frustrated me at times. This can be helped, but not totally avoided, by always having freshly recharged batteries.
It does eat batteries quickly, but I find that as long as I recharge them enough, it's fine. It only takes two AA batteries and most rechargeable batteries come in sets of at least four, so I always have an extra two with me and switch them out if need be. Of course, if you're the kind of person who always forgets to/never charges their batteries, this is a bad choice for you.
It takes wonderful pictures. I've used it in pretty much any setting you can think of and it's been great. If you leave it someplace cold it'll take a bit to turn back on, but I imagine any other camera would have a similar problem.
Some other reviewers have said this isn't a hardy piece of machinery. Maybe I've just been lucky, but I've dropped the thing a number of times and it's still good as new. A little scratched, of course, but it works just as well as it did when it was new.
I pretty much recommend this to anyone, unless you have a problem with being patient about things. Yes, the flash can take a bit to recharge, so just anticipate that. Make sure your batteries are charged. That's all. =)

camera has many flaws
I purchased this camera 1 year ago, and I was so disappointed in the performance. The battery life is terrible, I took it to our town's Christmas Parade, and all the pictures are grainy and really poor quality. I posted some so you can see, also when you take a picture you can not take a picture for another good ten seconds. I had a two foot away shot of the rapper Nelly, and the camera didn't take the shot, and I only caught a shot of his tattoo on his arm! Save your money and get a better camera, like the Canon A630 the same price and much better quality, the battery life is fantastic and the night shots are great too. The shutter speed is much better too. I now have my HP in the closet because when I tried to use it on Thanksgiving the zoom would no longer zoom, and the lense does not retract. The only way I can turn off the power is too take out the batteries! I never dropped it or mistreated my camera, it is just not a good quality camera.

Not a very good camera
I have had this camera since December of 2005.But i got i with the printer too.The printer is very good.But more can be said for the camera.For a few reasons The battery life is very poor.Like it can probley last you 30 mins at the most.And some times if you take a lot of pictures you can use them from the camera.And it will say photo can not be found.And sometimes whene you turn the camera on the screen will be off.And the screen is kind of bleek and dark and blurry too.And the video quality is horrible.And when you are taking a video with the camer the videos are very blurry and poor.And when you take a video you can look at the video on the camera but you CAN NOT HEAR THE SOUND.You have to have a computer to here the sound.And my grandpa has a canon and you can watch the video and hear the sound on the camera too!!!!!And in my opinon HP makes better computers then cameras. Thanks.

COMPLETE JUNK!
This is the most over priced and poorest quality cameras on the market. I have returned mine twice for repairs and now the auto focus is going out. The camera's MACRO function is a joke and if your looking for a camera that can take pictures in low light then this ain't it because it won't. DO NOT BUY THIS CAMERA!

so-so camera
This camera i have had for a while, and i personally think it stinks. It is somewhat heavy for this range. The mega pixels are only 5, zoom is only 3x, and it takes AA batteries. It's battery life is not very good, it is heavy, and overall i would not suggest it.
