| User Reviews |  | A liitle late but a Great Camera...
rating: 5
I'm fulfilling a [forgotten] promise I made to myself to write a comment on this fine product, after I bought it two years ago for $180, a refurbished price I think. It's a great camera, or should I say it Was a great camera since I lost it, stolen but that's another story.
This is a great camera to carry around for snaps, fits easily in the pocket, and makes good videos, up to three minutes long which can then be stitched together on the computer to make a longer movie. I found it to be rugged and forgiving of abuse [it became the house-camera used by an 18 year old knucklehead] and yes the lens did stick but I just shoved it back in [luckily?] and it worked fine. And the pictures, great, or to be honest one out of five or so was great; and looking back on the rest of them they are precious because they record moments that otherwise would be lost!
I'm in the search now for a new camera and I will be pleased if it works as well as this one did.

Send out the warranty card!
rating: 3
I owned it and loved it, but after only a year and a half of careful and light use, the lens got stuck out. My boss also purchased one and after only ONE year of use, her lens got stuck out too! Make sure that you fill out the warranty card so your can get repaired' we didn't and now we have no camara and we're $200 down.
I tried to contact Fuji to no avail, I waited on the phone for 15 minutes and I never got a human being on the Tecnical Support and Repair line.
Despite the poor life span of the product and the awful costumer service from Fuji, I really loved the camera, it was compact, stylish, easy to handle and to understand, great pic quality and easy to install software, I loved the video feature(although the DVD maker never work quite right, big LCD screen, great battery life... I really miss my camera.

SUCH A BEAUTIFUL CAMERA, too bad it's sooo annoying sometimes...
rating: 4
LOOK AT IT! It's GORgeous. I'm surprised Fuji doesn't have Paris Hilton modeling with it. Its unique design and the beauty of it is certainly undeniable... oh, and in case you're measuring and trying to compare and figure out how small/big this camera is.. let me clear that up; yes, it's tiny. It really is tiny. One thing I like about it, though, is that even though it's very compact, it's not overly light. (I never worry about dropping it..... I do get scared when other people touch it though... -haha)
What's there NOT to like about it? I can't decide whether to keep this camera because of the fact that it's so fantastic looking and I really don't think I'll find anything better as far as design... or sell it and buy something maybe a bit bigger and for sure less "cool"-looking in sacrifice for CLEAR pictures, EVERY time.
What this camera will often leave you with if you're taking pictures of anything with the slightest bit of motion is about 10 pictures that are far too blurry, 3 pictures that are blurry but you really want to kill yourself because they were/would've been *perfect* (and at about this moment you're cursing Fuji with all you've got), and 2 pictures that are clear but YOU screwed up the picture by getting half your ear cut off or accidentally snapping the picture when Laura had her finger up her nose. Damnit. That sucks.
It all depends on what you're taking pictures of. Never take this to any kind of event that's very important to you and monumental and you want pictures for... ever... because that's when it'll fail you; trust me. I took it to a graduation and first I thought it was only the lighting, so I turned the flash off, then it was making things blurry so I turned it back on and changed settings.. and it was still making things blurry. I didn't get one clear shot of that whole event. Let's just say it pissed me off and that's when I'd realized I'd had about enough.
I take pictures of me and my girl friends all the time for profile shots and things... we're just playing around.. we have all the time in the world to get the right pose. I never have problems then because we're HOLDING VERY STILL... but taking this camera to events, you know, where people MOVE; "just say 'no'".
I did take this to a winter formal and got very clear, crisp pictures that I blew-up into 5"x7" and they turned out amazingly well so I was pleased with my F450 then, however I can't stress this enough; digital cameras anymore are all about convenience. It's not convenient to have to ask a stranger if they can "start over" and give the same reaction they did the FIRST time your friend yelled "LOOK AT MY POOPY UNDIES!" at them... no, because... that just doesn't work.
ALSO price doesn't always represent quality, okay? Oh, and neither does mega-pixels, like someone else noted. Honestly, I preferred my Sony 3.2mp over this one. "If I could tuuuuurn back tiiiime...". ((Aw, but don't think I'm saying Sony's are all somethin' great!!!!!! Don't buy T-ANYTHING! They're all really bad. Read reviews. **Some** reviews are your friend, so read many.]
