HP Photosmart E317 review

When I bought the camera the pictures weren't as good as they could be so I waited hoping I would learn to take better pictures.

I have learned whatever I could but my pictures are usually out of focus, especially when I zoom in on the pictures. The camera is supposed to autofocus unless in macro mode. I will have to think long and hard about my next camera.

Hi Zane,

I recently bought one for $5.00. It doesn't have any autofocus mechanism. It is of free focus.

I find that if the distance is within 3 feet, MACRO mode renders best results, otherwise the distant mode rules.
