A review of the sleek HP Photosmart R837 digital camera has been posted over at Laptop Magazine. ‘At 5.5 ounces and one inch thick, this svelte silver camera is very light to hold and fits easily into your pocket. The slider on the front protects the lens and powers on the camera. The R837's three-inch LCD is very bright (like the HP Photosmart R967's) and fills most of this digicam's rear. Like many point-and-shoots we've recently tested, HP doesn't include an optical viewfinder. The R837 has few buttons, which adds to its clean design. Mode, flash, and shutter buttons, plus a slider to choose among photo, video, and review modes line the top. The other controls are on the right side of the LCD, including the zoom, back, and trash buttons, plus the four-way toggle. ‘
