PhotographyReview - 12/6/2006 - has reviewed the 8 megapixel HP Photosmart R927 and writes - “Unfortunately you can’t judge this book by its cover. Using a car analogy - from an exterior design point of view it’s an Audi, but it’s got the engine of a Gremlin. It seems that a lot of energy and thought were put into some elements of the HP Photosmart R927 design: build quality, physical design, and features. However, very little of that ingenuity was invested in image quality, or functional details like the camera’s docking station and battery door.”
Megapixel - 12/4/2006 - has reviewed the 8 megapixel HP Photosmart R927 and writes - “Negatives: Shutter lag - Sensitive to noise - Slow to operate - Battery needs recharging quickly - No directly useable AV out on camera.”
DigitalCameraInfo - 11/9/2006 - has reviewed the 8 megapixel HP Photosmart R927 and writes - “The HP R927 takes the lead of the Photosmart fleet of digital cameras with 8.2 megapixels and a slew of manual controls and in-camera editing effects. The R927 has a lot to offer: a 3-inch LCD screen, a Design Gallery menu in playback that has dozens of picture effects, and extensive on-screen directions that beginners will find helpful. The R927 is also equipped with a Photosmart Express menu that accesses direct printing operations quickly and streamlines the emailing process when transferring images to the computer. Sure, the camera has its drawbacks – awfully slow processing speeds, loud continuous auto focus, and no AV connection – but manual controls and the other fancy features are still a good commodity at the $399 retail price. If consumers can find the camera listed for under $300, it will offer a decent value for beginners looking for a relatively simple, yet feature-laden point-and-shoot.”
PCWorld - 10/25/2006 - has reviewed the 8 megapixel HP Photosmart R927 and writes - “However, the R967’s features aim to make a PC a rare necessity. Best among those features are automatic red-eye reduction and an antishake mode, both of which worked well in my informal testing. In addition, the camera offers a wealth of processing options that can let you add creative effects to your photos–such as subtle color modifications, cartoon simulations, or watercolor effects–without your having to use image editing software.”
Neocamera - 10/11/2006 - has reviewed the 8 megapixel HP Photosmart R967 and writes - “The HP Photosmart R967 is an intriguing camera to recommend. Image quality is good except for noise levels which are mostly noticeable in large prints or low-light photography. White-balance is superb with automatic white-balance handling most types of lights, including mixed indoor lighting. Colors and exposure are well calibrated for consumer appeal and avoiding overexposure. This ultra-compact camera is well built and packed for advanced features including full-manual controls. This, together with its speedy performance, awards it a good rating.”
Digital Camera Shopper Mag (July 2006 issue) has reviewed the 10 megapixel Photosmart R967 digital camera and they write - “Now that the price has dropped substantially, the R927’s a good buy. Not necessarily for its image quality, which is average, but for all those clever technologies. However, the panorama stitching is jaw droppingly good.”

Toms Hardware - 8/27/2006 - has reviewed the 10 megapixel Photosmart R967 digital camera and they write - “The Photosmart R967 is an extremely easy camera to use in the automatic modes, but the added shooting modes make it very appealing to the more serious photographer. A possible alternative might be the Photosmart R927. It has the same form factor, features, shooting modes and 3″ LCD as the R967, but only has an 8.2 Megapixel sensor and 8X digital zoom. No matter which one you choose, the R967 might not replace your DSLR, but will make a great addition to any shirt pocket or purse.”
