Rating: Summary: Excel in 2 megapixel cameras Review: This is the most compact design camera with high quality photo shots. I love it. Great for any use, nice day and night shots and also takes 20sec clips. Recomend as a first camera for starters or someone who wants to upgrade.
Rating: Summary: Very pleased Review: I tried a Sony Mavika first and it seemed awfully cumbersome to have to page around and also to set one of six picture qualities whereas the Fujifilm 2600 was easy, especially right out of the box. The one setting fits most was very comforting when shooting different scenes. Also interesting to learn so much about the digital cameras from the Staples store personel. They are very knowledgeable and friendly. Their 110% price matching guarantee also is attractive when shopping for items in this price range.
Rating: Summary: Third time's a charm Review: I have owned this camera for about a month now and love everything about it. Tried two others including the Finepix 2400 and decided to keep this one. Wanted a point and shoot that I could print up to 8 x 10's with and this camera does just that. Very easy to use and setup. Find the rechargable batteries lasting a long time compared with the alkaline (they must be used and recharged to get full benefit). Color is very true to life. Not finding much motion blur at all which was a problem with the 2400. I did buy Adobe's Photoshop Elements program to go with the camera. Printed a great 8 x 10 of my son at the piano during his recital before Christmas and relatives thought it was professionally done. Have a good photo printer which helps. Macro mode works great. Movie mode works fine but I would never use this as I have a good camcorder. Great entry level digital camera especially for the price!
Rating: Summary: Overall Performance Review: This camera is very simple to use, factoring in all the features available. You can go from point and shoot to more complex shots. The only dissappointments are the life of the rechargable batteries, and the fact no 3V adaptor is included. Also, providing a case for it would have been nice. Overall it is a great little camera that does not require photography classes to produce great shots. I did not experience any difficulty uploading photos to my PC, the directions were clear and simple.
Rating: Summary: Fuji 2600 - amazing camera Review: ...I have made beautiful 8x10 prints both inkjet and dye sublimation from this little camera and most people cant tell the difference between it and my Nikon. Much faster than other cameras in the same price range and cheaper memory cards.
Rating: Summary: Nice camera - exactly what I was looking for Review: I just read a pretty scathing review in the photography trade magazine site. If you are expecting 35mm SLR performance from this camera, you will be disappointed. But if you want something that will take good "snap-shots" and are willing to keep the flash distance within about 10 feet, you will be rewarded with a very easy to use camera. I added a 64 meg smart media card and can get 100 pictures at the 1280x960 setting with resolution set to fine. Not too damn bad.Glad I purchased it and have been very pleased with the expected results. Would have given it five stars if the flash was a little more powerful. Had to learn the hard way.
Rating: Summary: Nice camera at a great price Review: I have had this camera for almost a week now, and am very pleased with it. The size is nice, the controls are intuitive, and the picture quality is quite good. The price-to-feature ratio is excellent. As anyone who has done some comparative shopping will know, it is very easy to spend a lot more than [amt] on a digital camera which may either do more than you need or be difficult to learn to use. This is a more than acceptable entry-level digital camera which should satisfy the vast majority of us who are point-and-shoot users. Having said this, there are two points buyers should be aware of: 1. If you are running Windows XP, the software included with the camera will not work, and you will need to download a new program from fujifilm.com. The size of the update is large (>10 MB), so if you use anything other than broadband be prepared for an all-night download session. 2. First-time digit camera buyers should be aware that there are a lot of hidden costs involved in making the jump from film to pixels. Aside from the purchase price of the camera, be prepared to buy a larger memory card for the camera (this model includes a 16 MB card which is better than what you usually get but not as big as you need), extra rechargeable batteries and a charger, a photo-quality printer, and photo paper for printing your pictures. All said, the "total" cost of this camera with everything you need will be about [price].
Rating: Summary: ---- Review: I originally bought the camera to take family photos and to replace our old camera. I was pleasantly surprised at first when taking pictures of the family because they were not moving. The flash is so bright that almost every picture had red eye problems, but those can be edited out with software. However, included software does not include a package to do this. Colors were very nice, and the still pictures looked extremely crisp. Without a flash on, I took over 70 pictures using the display, and a 20 second movie, plus there is still life in the batteries. With the flash on, I would get about 40 to 50 pictures before needing a recharge. Today, I was seriously using the camera attempting to take pictures of my daughters birthday. Out of 38 pictures only 5 were not blurry. I was taking pictures as she was opening presents, and doing nothing special. What would happen is the portion of the picture that the subject was moving is blurry, and the rest is clear. I even tried to wait for a time when very little movement was going on. It's very hard to get the children to stay still long to take a clear picture, so I have no alternative to return this camera. Pros: - Excellent still pictures - Easy to use - Pretty good battery life Cons: - Blurry pictures if subject moves in the slightest - Lots of red eye - Software package limited
Rating: Summary: Very good value... Review: I bought the Fuji 2600 for my family to use, including my kids. We truly had a wonderful time with it over the holidays. There is nothing like telling your 7-year old's, "Go take some pictures!" This camera is that easy to use. The images it produces are great and the flash works wonderfully. The colors are very nice, and the viewing software for the PC is very simple to use. Fuji even provided 1700 mAh batteries (which are state-of-the-art). Make sure that you get something close to that, and get several sets. The only dissapointments are that only compressed images are available, and that there is no lens filter to protect the lens from kids fingers and accidents while shooting pictures. I also recommend getting a 64MB or a 128MB smartcard, with which you'll be able to take 150 or 300 pictures (amazing!).
Rating: Summary: Simple, Fast and Easy Shooting! Review: I wanted a camera that was a simple, point and shoot photo moment and I got exactly what I wanted with this Fuji product. This camera is easy to operate and easy to connect to view the images on the PC. You don't have to have a degree in computer science to do the connections and view the image. It is a quick 1,2,3 sequence--point, shoot, plug in. The finished product is a clear, bright picture without the fuzzy edges of many digital cameras. The quality is actually surprising for the convenience it affords. Thank you Fuji for a fine product.
