Reviews of the HP Photosmart R937
-
CNET Review
The Good: Intuitive interface; huge screen; fast performance.
The Bad: Horrible noise; really small zoom rocker.
The Bottom Line: If not for the massive amounts of noise in some photos, the HP Photosmart R937 would be a good point-and-shoot camera.

Review Summary: If creative shooting control, optical range, or compactness are your priorities, look elsewhere. But if you want a big touch screen and you value in-camera photo editing, the R937 delivers.

Review Summary: Thankfully, editing an image doesn't mean you'll ruin it if you hit a wrong button or don't like an effect you've applied. Every time you do something to a pic the camera saves it as a new file so the original is protected
