Rating: Summary: i really like this camera Review: We bought this camera to replace our old digital ....It was also a Fuji.... This one is so easy to use. Basically it is just point and shoot. The reason I only gave it 4 stars is not even to do with the camera.. It is to do with the download procedure.. It in itself is not difficult, however if you are not computer savvy the directions may be a little confusing. Over all though I really like this camera.... The quality is really High and I think you will like it also.
Rating: Summary: Great camera but ... Review: We purchased the camera in November and have taken 2000+ photos. My experience is similar to the other reviews - produces very good pictures at an excellent value. My only disappointment has been the lense cover which now fails to stay in the open position unless you hold it open. If you let go of the cover it moves towards the lense causing it to retract and shut the camera off. Before purchasing the camera I had read a similar complaint on a different site. I suspect that this is a weakness in the design. The camera still works fine with this annoyance. I'll probably continue to use the camera as is rather than deal with the hassle of getting it fixed.
Rating: Summary: Great camera for the price and easy to use!! Review: Well, I did alot of research from the Amazon web site to CNet.com to pricegrabber.com. I already knew what my budget was for a digital camera (around $300.00 +/-) I compared brands, features, prices, and customer reviews. I narrowed my choice down to two, this one and the Olympus 360. If I remember right the only difference between the two was that Olympus had a video out so you can see the pictures on your t.v. But the Fuji did'nt yet the Fuji was USB compatible and the Olympus was just serial. I decided to forgoe the t.v. and go straight for speed so that I can manipulate the pictures and e-mail or print them. I am glad I did. The quality for an average occasional picture taker like myself is exceptional!! At the highest resolution the crispness, clarity, and detail is near 35mm quality. I do recommend as others have, buying rechargable batteries, and a bigger Smart Media card. I love this camera and for someone who is just looking for a good digital camera that takes quality pictures for an average picture taker, this is the way to go!!
Rating: Summary: A great little camera! Review: When I saw this camera on Amazon, my indecision over which Olympus digital camera to buy- the 360L or the 460Z- was immediately solved! This Fuji 1400 combines the sleek, sliding lens protector and compact, pocket sized 35mm look with an added bonus: USB connection! And these features are at this great, entry level price!There is no compramise. This is not a bare-bones camera as it is packed with 1.3 megapixels and allows manual setting adjustments. The auto mode works effortlessly; as a novice, I do not utilize all of the features, but it is nice to know they are there. The zoom, record/play, display, and other controls are very simple to use and conveniently placed. (Other cameras' buttons, menu sequences, etc can be cumbersome). Photos can be viewed/played with its the lens closed very easily with its on/off switch. The LCD can also be used as a real time viewfinder. Very fast USB connection avoids the added expense and/or clutter for a card reader, floppy adapter, or other hardware. (Only the top line 3 megapixel Olympus cameras now offer USB). The Fuji does not have a video out for TV playback of photos, but this was not a concern to me and easily traded for the speed of USB over serial. The LCD is smaller than the Olympus, but is adequate. The LCD screen can be hard to see in bright sunlight, but the camera works so well in auto mode that many photos can be taken without using the LCD. In summary, this is a great starter camera that doesn't skimp on features (like zoom, USB) and won't get outdated any time soon. It is also not as bulky as many other cameras in its price range, which is extremely reasonable given the Fuji's features and ease of use.
Rating: Summary: Great Product! Review: Within less than half an hour of receiving the FinePix 1400 (as a present), I was taking great-looking pictures. While much of the basics of using this camera are intuitive, I do strongly recommend reading the manual (and maybe picking up a book, such as "Complete Idiot's Guide to Digital Photography") for the somewhat more advanced topics. I do love it -- easy to use, produces great pictures, well-built.
Rating: Summary: Fujifilm Finepix 1400Zoom ~ A GREAT CAMERA! Review: Yes, it takes wonderful pics, blah, blah, blah. What I REALLY like about it is how easy it is to upload onto the computer. Also, I was a little hesitant about using the smart media chips, but have found them to be reliable and easy to use. I highly recommend it! The only drawback is that it sucks power when viewing LCD screen.
