HP Design Gallery in-camera effects


An HP digital camera With HP Design Gallery, you can add a wide range of exciting artistic effects to your photos—right in your HP camera. Choose from traditional touches like borders, or try something unconventional like a kaleidoscope effect.

How do I apply an effect?

Design gallery effects can be applied with a few simple menu selections—right in your camera.

Ink Dots


Give your photos a painted look with the ink dots effect. Your photo will be transformed into small colored dots like brush strokes—and you can adjust their size. Works in either black and white or color.
