Take nude :camera:'s and post them here. That way we can evaluate how the CCD captures skin tones, which is the most important thing.

shouldn't you ask if it's a good camera BEFORE you purchase it??? Who cares what other people think, if you like the quality of the pics and ease of use, keep it.

It wasnt a planned buy (I'm the WORST compulsive spender I know). If I had been planning on getting one, then of course i would have posted asking for peoples opinions and what they liked..

I tell people to stay away from HP cameras at all costs. Unless you got a really good deal on it, id return it if you still can.

I don't own one, but I borrowed my friend's HP camera when I built my PC last year. I've found it took decent pics (nude or otherwise ;)), but the AA batteries died just about hourly and if you didn't use the flash in all shots, regardless of lighting, the pic was off-color and fuzzy. I don't think she got a busted one, because a Google search of the camera model she had (can't remember the model, but it was a 3 MP) came back with several results complaining of the same thing. She got hers in Nov. 04; hopefully they worked out the bugs since then.

Take this man's advice. HP may be ok to start with, but wait 1 year and your photo sensor will be crap. Kodak tends to go that way, too. Next time, read up before you buy something like that.
