Summary: Can't beat it for the price...
Review: I bought this phone last fall before digital camera prices drastically fell. It was still around just $200, which was a wonderful deal. This is a very nice camera for $200. The pictures turn out beautiful. The camera is sturdy and appealing to the eye...it's size is great too. Flashes, options, battery life...it's all there. It is SO easy to learn how to use. I've had some trouble because some photo processing places (i.e. Rite Aid) cannot yet service xD. xD is also a bit costly, but it is actually wonderful...very small and effective. Overall, a wonderful camera, especially for a beginner or a student. If you want to edit your pictures well or anything, you'll need better software than what comes with the camera, but that could be found online for free. Great deal...highly reccommend!

Summary: Good For Beginners, But Very I Wouldn't Buy It Again
Review: I got this camera as a graduation gift (it was my first digital camera) last June. This is a good camera for beginners, if all you really do is pretty harmless point and click, but for anyone truly interested in photography, I wouldn't really suggest it.The pros:
-good quality photos, especially for a 3.2.
-small, compact size and shape
-surprisingly durable (at least in the beginning). I took it out in the snow during the huge East Coast snowstorm and it performed very well. Lens froze a couple of times, but if you just breathe hot air onto it, it should start working again.
-runs on AA, so if the battery level runs low and you have extra AAs handy, you can still use the camera (versus Canon cameras where you have to use camera specific batteries) The cons:
-HUGE, and I mean LONG delay between photos. 5 seconds may not seem like a long time, but when you're waiting for that perfect shot...and the camera misses it and you have to wait another 5 seconds for the flash to prepare itself again, the moment will already have been lost.
-The shutter cover is very flimsy.
-Movie mode includes no sound.
-Weak zoom.
-Drains alkaline AA power very quickly, so you'll have to buy rechargable Lithium Ion batteries (not that big of a deal though).
-uses xD (although these days the camera market is much more accepting of xDs and it's easier to find products that are created for them.). Cards can be quite expensive.
-Lastly, it's been slightly more than a year since I got this camera and it has completed died out on me. I haven't used this camera in about two months because I haven't been able to turn it on. I hold the power switch and nothing happens (it's definitely not the batteries). Basically, if you're looking for a camera that will last and give you good quality photos, I wouldn't really buy this one. Look into the Canon PowerShot line, they're much more sturdy, record up to 3 minutes of video with sound, and are much better in general.

Summary: try another camera
Review: i have a nikon cp800 now, and have used my friends fuji 2600 for 3 weeks. so, thought at 3mp this must be better than a 2600, wrong. i bought the camera and took about 50 pictures. the camera only give acceptable shots at full sunlight outdoors. the pics indoors are useless. even outdoors the camera gives lousy shots unless there is extreme bright light. i like fuji digital cameras, but they missed here. you get about the pic quality of a $$ 1mp camera. if your looking for a $ carry along camera, get the fuji 2600. my guess, half of a303 will be returned.

Summary: Fuji delivers a lot for digital photo amateurs for the price
Review: I have had several digital cameras, and none gave me better service than the Fuji FinePix. Normally, I do film photography and if I want digital pictures, I scan in the negative. When I went to straight digital photography, I found out that I needed certain features as "must-haves." The Fuji did pretty well on most counts. Photos: Resolution
· 2048 x 1536 - on the fine setting
· 1600 x 1200 -on the normal setting (fine for most work)
· 1280 x 960 or 640 x 480 Lower resolution email setting for smaller files (nice!) Features
· JPEG format.
· Up to 60 seconds of 320 x 240 or up to 240 sec's of 160 x 120 motion video
· 3X optical zoom Pros:
· Great resolution for the price. Fuji delivers sharper pictures than many entry-level competitors.
· Choice of settings including that email setting, great if you are taking a bunch of pictures and want to email them without a lot of massaging
· Exposure compensation for backlight available (+1.5 to -.2.1 EV exposure value)
· White balance choice to change exposure from automatic, good if no manual settings are available, as they are not here.
· Controls are EASY to use. I love that directional button for playback and settings.
· XD Picture card-new standard for digital-supposed to reduce battery consumption and faster read/write, as well as large capacity.
Cons
· Relies on AA batteries, leaving you to have to shell out for a NiMH rechargeable instead, recommended so you don't leave a nasty pile of eco-unfriendly batteries behind you as you go on a photo shoot. And recharging IS more convenient, believe me.
· You may be concerned about moving to a new digital format (the XD) or have a stash of standard Smart Memory cards. It's annoying to move to a new standard, though XD offers some advantages. Conclusion: You can't go wrong here for an entry-level digital camera. This delivers plenty of performance for the buck and most people will be more than pleased. Just get a rechargeable battery. Specs:
· 3.24 Megapixel CCD for images up to 2048 x 1536 pixels.
· 3x (38-114mm equivalent) F2.8 optical zoom lens
· Seamless 3.2x digital zoom in 640x480 mode
· 1.5-inch TFT color LCD, approx. 60,000 pixels
· Program AE, Manual mode offers exposure compensation
· Shooting modes: Still, Movie, Macro
· Motion video w/out audio up to 60 secs @ 320x240
· White balance selectable in Manual mode
· Shutter speeds: Automatic 1/2 seconds to 1/2000 second
· 64-zone TTL Metering
· ISO sensitivity 100 equivalent
· Built in flash with Auto, Red-eye reduction, Forced on, forced off and slow-synchro
· 9-frame and 13x zoom playback function with scrolling
· xD Picture Card storage, 16MB supplied
· USB connectivity
· Powered by two standard AA type batteries
· Small (4.3 x 2.8 x 1.5 in.) and lightweight (8.8 oz)

Summary: Fuji FinePix A303 Review
Review: I have recently purchased this camera and my wife and I have been testing it extensively to determine its quality. We have both been pleased with the outdoor and indoor results. In either case, the pictures comes out very sharp and identical to what we would have seen with our own eyes. The camera is very easy and intuitive to use. This in combination with its small size makes it convenient. The main problem with this camera is that it is very power hungry...especially when downloading the pictures onto a computer via the provided USB cable. I would highly recommend purchasing the AC power adapter when downloading the pictures or using it for video teleconferencing.

Summary: Doesn't overwrite images
Review: I just bought this camera after doing a fair amount of research on various models. The interface is very simple to use, and it takes good pictures and makes decent movies for a digital camera. I'm writing this mainly in response to another review. The only concern I had in buying this camera was that one reviewer here said that if you scroll through the images on the camera, stop in the middle, and then take pictures, it will overwrite the images that you've already taken. I talked to a friend of mine who also has a Fuji digital camera (although not this model), and he said it didn't happen with his, so I decided to buy the A303. After playing around with it, I found that it does not overwrite the images in the scenario described above. So I guess this guy either got a defective model, or accidentally deleted his pictures himself.

Summary: Lasted A little over two years
Review: I loved my Fugi camera. I had bought it when digital cameras were at their peek craze and 3.2 mp's was really cool. Unfortunately I naively thought the camera was of top quality and that I would not need to sign up for the four-year warrantee/service plan. I was disappointed when on my study abroad trip the camera's zoom lens got stuck outside of the camera. When I returned home (now without any pictures) they told me it would cost around $100 to fix the stupid thing. I decided to buy a different brand digital camera with the 4-year service plan!

Summary: Fun and easy to use
Review: I purchased this camera during a recent trip to Boston, and am extreemly happy with my purchase. This camera takes excellent pictures, is easy to use, and typifies plug-and-play technology at its best. The only thing holding back a 5-star rating is the flash tends not to go off in some low-light situations, but this is easliy remidied by overriding the auto flash function.
