CNET reviews the HP Photosmart R847 and writes;
“Unfortunately, the R847’s photos disappoint just as much as its performance impresses. Unacceptable levels of noise appear even at ISO 100. If you dare hit ISO 800 or ISO 1600, grain utterly consumes any and all detail in your shot. The R847’s predecessor could only reach ISO 400, and now we know why: photos taken at higher sensitivity levels look horrible. Besides noise, the R847’s shots suffered from some painful distortion; wide-angle shots balloon out comically, while telephoto shots pinch inward. In the end, while you can coax the camera into grabbing decent shots at ISO 100, it simply misses far more than it hits.”
