 | nice camera

I've only had this camera for a couple days, but so far I REALLY like it. My old camera was a casio exilim that I got about 4-5 years ago, and it finally bonked, so my daddy got me the finepix. One of the first things I noticed was that the finepix has a much clearer screen. I had tested a finepix in the store prior to receiving mine as a gift, and I noticed that it had one of the clearest screens, even in comparison to some of the more expensive digital cameras. Trying out the features, I was very happy with the facial recognition, auto focus, stabilization, etc. because I tend to have an unsteady hand and normally take pictures that are out of focus. I also like the pre-set photo options for situations such as low light, ebay photos, and others and how the camera automatically adjusts lighting, flash, etc. I appreciate that the zoom is internal - my old camera's zoom popped out of the front of the camera, and that just annoyed me. I also like the macro setting - I think still life/conceptual type photos are the coolest. I noticed the shutter speed on the finepix is way better than on my old camera too. With my old camera, most of the pictures of my dog would turn out blurry or fuzzy because by the time I tried to capture a picture he would move. This camera is able to get clear shots of him. The video is also much clearer than it was with my old camera. Also, I am very pale, and most cameras make me look like a washed out zombie, but with this camera I looked like a normal (though still pale) human. I think the only thing I don't like so far is the software, but I have an SD card reader and will probably start using that so I can bypass using the software all together. I'd definitely recommend this camera for anyone who wants random shots of family, friends, pets, nature, etc. as well as short videos. The photo quality looks very good on my macbook, although I have not yet printed any photos. Although the camera is not professional quality, for the price it exceeds expectations!

Snazzy Little Camera That Gets the Job Done
rating: 5
This vibrant little camera really does the job! Beautiful, clear photos and excellent resolution. Very easy to use and how can you not love the dazzling Wasabi Green color? I own 2 high-end professional cameras, but keep this one in my purse for impromptu photos & videos of my kids when we are out & about and it is perfect for the job!

excellent beginner camera
rating: 5
I have the 7MP version of this camera and it takes good pictures. They're a little grainy, but I haven't seen a digital picture that isn't grainy at full size. The files are great for printing.
The camera itself has stood up to rain and being dropped. The controls are easy to work and the handstrap is very sturdy. The battery lasts forever, too!
Sometimes the flash can be a little too bright if you're too close to your subject, but that can easily be solved by backing away slightly or playing with angles. The macro images and portrait images are absolutely beautiful.

This camera has everything
rating: 5
I think Fuji outdid themselves with this product. The camera features are outstanding, including video, complete memory device support (xD or SD/SDHC), and a rechargeable battery with a battery recharger (among many other features). As more cameras reduce features to save costs and force consumers to buy add-ons and force proprietary hardware, Fuji is giving excellent quality features and providing the support to give consumers more options.
The MP and video I truly believe can't be beat with this point-and-click that works fantastic even in low-light with the flash off (who wants to use the flash anyhow?).

great little camera
rating: 5
This is a great up grade for those moms who have daring children and need to take a quick shot of them doing something that mom doesnt really want to see. It is significantly quicker than most of the older digitals that we had first. The delay between button and pic has diminished greatly. no this is not a slr type but frankly most moms i know with 3 or more (or less) kids dont have room for that in the diaper bag. Till the diaper bag is retired and I have time to hold a camera and not multiple hands at once this will fit perfectly in my bag be it purse or diaper. Not to mention the 10 megapixels make tightening and cropping better for later when you have time. Like 10 pm when all the house is asleep and Im catching a moment to myself. All told this will be catching a few more birthday cake moments before I get back into photograpy as a more serious hobby.
