Hewlett Packard Photosmart M525 Digital Camera
June 4, 2008

The Hewlett Packard Photosmart M525 Compact Digital Camera is an ideal device for family and friends usage rather than for professional purposes. The model along with the peripherals facilitates enhanced printing, enlarging and sharing. All thanks to the advanced software technology of the Hewlett Packard.
Impressive images delivered
The model is designed with 6 MP resolutions to absorb even the minutest detail and convert it to 4 x 6†prints and even enlargements. The HP Precision telephoto lens of 3 x optical zoom further qualifies the imaging ability of the model by realising distant objects with improved precision. White balancing mode comes in a default mode as well as a manually adjustable mode apart from four other condition-based modes as the tungsten, shade, sun and fluorescent modes. The model is further subjected to augmentation by the inclusion of a platter of 11 different picture modes apart from an exceptional colour control aspect that further caters a couple of modes more like the black and white and sepia modes apart from a default mode.
Other Impressive Features
A few other impressive features that come along with the Hewlett Packard Photosmart M525 6 MP Digital Camera are a device integrated Red Eye Reduction feature that automatically eliminates red eyes, a fast ISO 400, video capability, and sound capturing ability, a 10 seconds self timer and an in-built flash, with on, off and automatic red eye reduction features.
Conclusion
Though the M525 arrives with a plethora of striking features, a few blemishes that scars the functionality part of the model disappoints to an extent. A low resolution video capability of 320 x 240 is the one to start with followed by poor sound capturing along with the lack of a speaker. Further the poor designing of the trigger button as well as the absence of an optical viewfinder tells on the product. In spite of all these flaws, if the camera leaps in the market, all the credits definitely goes to the software technology of the HP.
