The R847 sits between the R837 and the R937. The R837 has a 7.2-megapixel count, versus the R847's 8 megapixel count. The R937 features 8 megapixels and a 3.6-inch touch screen display, which HP touts as the largest on the compact digital camera market. More about the R937 here.

The R847 has 13 shooting modes, including auto, burst, theatre, and sunset. It features in-camera editing, such as red-eye removal and pet-eye fix, and the ability to slim subjects and remove blemishes. The camera has a tagging feature to help keep photos organized. Additionally, borders, colors, and effects can be added to images in the camera. It will retail for $229.99.

The R742 sits behind the 837 in the R-series. In comparison, the R742 has less digital zoom (7x versus 8x) and a smaller display (2.5 inches versus 3 inches). Both cameras are fitted with a 3x optical zoom lens.

The Photosmart R742 features 13 shooting modes including auto, burst, close up, and sunset. It also has a movie mode and in-camera red-eye removal. It will be offered in a number of colors, including silver, black, and dark blue. It will retail for $179.99
