Rating: Summary: It's so FUN! Review: This is my first digital camera and I love it! I researched various cameras for a couple of weeks and decided on this one because of the new xD Picture Card and the reasonable price. Of course, being a newbie, I have nothing to compare it to, but I'm having a ball! Since it is my first digital, I was impressed with the fact that I was able to use it within minutes of receiving it. I haven't got all the details down pat yet, but I'm working on it. The basics came very easily and I'm not a professional photographer or a computer expert. I've taken short movies as well as pictures, which amazes me! I would definitely recommend this camera to anyone interested in a simple, quality, reasonably priced digital.
Rating: Summary: Fuji FinePix 2650 2MP Review: This is the greatest little digital camera. It is so easy to use; I could use it right after the salesperson showed me how. It takes really excellent pictures. You do not need a camera with higher pixels to get a good picture. The 2.0 Mega Pixels is just fine. I have reccommended this camera over and over. You will not go wrong on buying this and the $$ is good. Enjoy
Rating: Summary: quality camera...great price Review: This is a splendid point and shoot camera for the price you pay. I took this camera to Sea World the first day i bought it. Beautiful outdoor shots, but the lcd was a bit difficult to see in the sun. Indoor shots were good, but i did have trouble in the shark exhibit. The flash caused a glare that made it impossible to see.Battery life was great, i used the camera all day w/o having to buy new batteries. The camera held 30 pix @ mp each. overall a good buy
Rating: Summary: Value for money Review: pros This camera produces excellent quality images. light weight and sturdy cons Takes long time to get ready between shots No video output to TV
Rating: Summary: Very disappointing Review: As mentioned in other reviews, after about six months, the auto focus feature stopped working. At first, we thought the battery was low or we needed a new card. After purchasing a new battery & new card, still the auto focus will not work! Very frustrating! I feel like we've just thrown our money away & we're stuck with a useless camera.
Rating: Summary: Good Camera for the Money Review: Being someone who just takes pictures for fun, I wanted a digital camera that was little bit more than a point-and-click. This camera offered that. The menu is easy to use and for an amateur, it is very easy to get accustomed to. The pictures come out pretty well. The only thing I wish I had on it would be a stronger zoom but for what it does offer, it's not bad. Uploading the photos from the camera to the computer is very easy also. Again, this camera is great for someone who is looking for digital technology but is not exactly the most camera savvy person.
Rating: Summary: DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY Review: I've owned this camera for one year and i never dropped it or misused it in any way. All of a sudden my LCD screen went haywire with lines going across the screen, until one day it just completely went blank. I couldn't view any photos or change any settings, so the camera is now useless. What a waste because i thought the picture quality was decent.
Other negatives for this camera that i found is the battery compartment constantly opened up with the Slightest Touch and the batteries would fall out. But my biggest complaint is that the lapse time between shots is RIDICULOUS!! This is not the camera you want to use while your kid is trying to blow out all their b-day candles. You will only get one shot before the moment has passed. Don't waste your money on this camera.
Rating: Summary: TOO FRAGILE!!!!!!! Review: I liked everything about this camera except for the fact that is way too fragile. My lcd screen one day suddenly turned gray with lines in it for no reason!
Rating: Summary: Tougher than it looks Review: I've had this for almost 2 years now, and am very satisfied. I'm not a contant user, but have probably taken close to a thousand pics by now - all look great. These cameras make pictures more fun - no messing with film, picking up, storing - just load on the computer.
The reason I'm writing is to make a comment on durability. This seems like a pretty fragile camera, very lightweight and obviously very few steel or metal parts in there. When I fumbled it onto a barely carpeted wood flow from almost 6 feet, therefore, I figured it was history. I picked it up and turned it on - nothing. Cursing and depondent, I popped the hood to ascertain the damage. Once inside, I noticed the memory card was a little askew. I pushed it back in place, closed her up, and voila - worked like new again.
Maybe it landed at just the right angle, or maybe I'm just very lucky, but I have to hand it to any camera that can survive a 6 foot dead drop with no permanent damage.
Rating: Summary: Great Pictures, but LCD screen fragile Review: I have had this camera for a year, my first digicam, and I was extremely pleased with the picture quality and overall performance. However, about a month ago, I started getting lines on the LCD screen, so I couldn't access menu or review the photos I'd taken. Then, it suddenly cleared up. This happened off and on for a couple of weeks, now the LCD is just a solid gray color, and is apparently toast. And I never even dropped the camera once. I called FujiFilm customer service, and after sitting on hold for 30 minutes, I got a technician who told me that he'd never heard of anyone having this problem, and since the warranty was up, to take it to a local authorized service company. I called that company, they said it would not be worth it to have it fixed. Now, after having read all these reviews, I know this is a fairly common problem. So the guy at Fujifilm lied to me!! I am ticked, and because of this experience I will never buy another Fujifilm product. Too bad, because the pic quality was superb, but Fujifilm obviously doesn't stand behind their products. And then, they lie to you to boot!
