HP photo smart 735

This model is old when it comes to digital cameras but is great for capturing mountain ranges and friends. All of the photos on my blog from the mountain backpacking in Alaska are from this camera. One thing I really like about it is that it has a manual zoom and digital zoom. You can save a lot of battery  life by only using the manual zoom instead of the digital. It also takes regular AA batteries which are easy to pack and do not require a charger and all of those fancy extras. It can take video and has many unique features. So let's not see where it stands on the Tough Gear Challenge.
Durability
I dropped this camera a few times and it has kept working great. However not to mention that it has been to Afghanistan, Germany, and many other places over the years. This camera is very dependable, and can capture those moments that you will remember forever. Tough gear Durability Grade: B
Affordability
This camera is now very affordable and you can shop around on eBay or other sites to find one. Tough gear Affordability Grade: B
Packability
This camera is not one of the small pocket size ones but fit rather well in any coat pocket or backpack pocket. Tough gear Packability Grade:B
Versatility
This camera has the capabilities of taking pictures and video, as well as having a digital and manual zoom. It can be used with AA batteries and does not need to be charged with the conventional wall outlet. Tough gear Versatility Grade:B
