A first impression review of the Hewlett Packard M527 digital camera is available at DigitalCameraInfo.
Their first impression:
“The HP Photosmart M527 will provide consumers with a 6 MP CCD, 3x optical zoom, 2-inch LCD, and features which are commonly found on other cameras within this price range. […]
For camera users seeking a no-frills digital camera with point-and-shoot capabilities, standard well sized external controls, and expansive help features with text and image examples, the M527 could be an interesting candidate to re-examine—but we can’t say so for sure. Visit us later for our image testing results and full review.”

CNET has reviewed the HP PhotoSmart R607 digital camera.
The review result:
“Lots of useful options set this 4-megapixel compact apart from the pack, but a dearth of scene modes and a minuscule 1.5-inch LCD rain on the HP Photosmart R607’s feature parade.”

DigitalCameraInfo have posted their first impressions review of the HP Photosmart M425 digital camera.
Here are there intial thoughts (we will keep you updated on their full review as soon as it is available):
“HP’s M425 is a basic point-and-shoot 5 MP digital camera that will provide its users with an opportunity to shoot, alter, and share images, all while never moving outside the camera. […]
The 1.7-inch LCD is undersized, even for this price range […].
With a price of around $149, consumers looking for an unassuming, standard, straightforward point-and-shoot camera could certainly do worse, and the HP Photosmart M425 manages to hold its own within this reasonably saturated entry price level. “

DigitalCameraInfo has posted a first impression review of the HP Photosmart R725 digital camera.
The first review results:
“The HP Photosmart R725 is a small and easily portable camera for both beginning and casual point-and-shoot enthusiasts. The menu structures are easy to navigate, with a plethora of partial and full text options provided with both live view and example thumbnails. The inclusion of an automatic red-eye reduction feature is handy. The camera does move somewhat beyond sheer Auto mode, providing both custom image presets and manual control over settings like Bracketed Exposure, Exposure Compensation, Flash, Metering, and other options.”
