HP Photosmart R927 digital camera (and six others) announced

HP dropped no less than seven new, but rather ordinary, digicams here at CES. In the R-series, we have the top of the line R927 (pictured) which is by far the most interesting throwing down 8.2 megapixels, everybody's current fave 3-inch LCD (only) viewfinder, 32MB onboard memory, and a regular ol' 3x optical zoom. And like most of the other newly announced cameras, it features the ability to remove red-eye while images are still in the camera and an on-camera button to easily order and share photos on HP's Snapfish service. It also presumably packs in SD expansion in that 1-inch metal shell though it's (importantly) not mentioned in the press release. Price TBD but shipping by March. Pics and specs of the remaining digicams after the break.



Rounding out the R-series are the identical looking R725 and R727 (pictured) "ultra-compact" 0.9-inches thick shooters featuring 6.2 megapixels, 3x optical zooms, and 2.0 and 2.5-inch LCDs repectively.




HP also announced a few more low-end cams including the M527 sportin' 6 megapixels with 3x optical zoom, 16MB memory built-in, and 2.0-inch LCD.
