Photos: HP products target shutterbugs

Photographers who don't need a compact model like the A716 might opt for the $149 Photosmart D7160 Photo Printer. It will fit on top of a shelf or under a desk and print photos as large as 8.5 inches by 24 inches.

Before you print, of course, you need to capture the image. The new Photosmart M627 camera can take 7-megapixel pictures in a compact package. It weighs just 120 grams, or 4.2 ounces, without a battery.

The most powerful--and most expensive--camera in HP's new lineup is the Photosmart R967. Photographers can snap 10-megapixel images and erase worries of blurred images with a built-in image stablizer. The camera costs $449, and it will be available in September.

HP also announced plans to lower prices on its Halo Collaboration Studio, which is designed to let teams interact through a sophisticated video conferencing system that mimics a global board room table. HP has signed up global enterprises such as GE Financial and AIG for the studio, which now starts at a low, low $425,000 for installation and a monthly $18,000 fee for telecom and networking costs.

Despite the price cut, Halo still probably isn't the best way to call Grandma.
