Rating: Summary: My first and the best Review: After a going thru a lot of reviews I finally brought Fuji finepix 1300. The camera is very tiny and can be carried very easily. This is the best camera for the beginners with little knowledge about digital cameras. Compared to other digital cameras coping the images to the computer is made easy through USB. If you are using a XP operating system the computer automatically detects the camera. The camera comes with a 8MB smart media card (Not enough if you take picturs at high resloution --16 photos). The camera is compatible upto 128MB smart media (around 200 pictures)I am using this camera for the past one year. I have tested in all conditions and it worked great. Its a point and shoot camera and comes handy when you are on vecations. Need to have spare chargable baterries at all times. I will give a A+ to this camera at 1.3 megapixel category.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Beginner Camera!!! Review: After my mom bought me a Sipix camera (terrible device), I went on a search for an affordable, quality camera. After reading several reviews from different sites, I decided to purchase this camera. It has been absolutely great and didn't cost an arm and a leg like the others. Highly recommend this camera for beginners

Rating: Summary: Great camera! Review: Easy to use, good documentation, small & practical design. Great deal for a 1.3 megapixel camera. Excellent for beginners. Only downside I found: batteries run out fast!
Rating: Summary: Best camera in its class Review: Having used some other low-end digital cameras in the past, I must say that this one is a welcome relief. Most of these other cameras have what I feel is a critical flaw - a long wait between pushing the button and when the camera actually takes a picture. Some of the other cameras can take as long as three seconds between "clicking", and when the photo is actually taken. While this doesn't sound like a big issue, I can guarantee that you'll end up with a lot of pictures of floors and ceilings with the other models - especially when someone unfamiliar with the camera pushes the button and then looks at the camera to see why nothing happened. Of course, you can erase these errors without any cost involved as the camera's digital, but there's no guarantee you can replicate the moment you were trying to capture. Thankfully, this camera eliminates this concern. The resolution of this camera is certainly adequate for web and email pictures, and would be ideal for anyone who needs to take digital pictures for online auctions like ebay. Plus, it comes at a very affordable price for people who would like to experiment with digital photography.
Rating: Summary: Finepix in the Classroom Review: I bought the camera to take pictures of students in my high school classes for an end of the year slide show. I did some research and did not find any cameras that matched this one for the price (USB interface, LCD, 8 MB smartmedia card along with a 16 MB bonus disk upon purchase). I had some difficulty getting everything set up. I had to buy a Scandisk to download pictures into Windows NT, for example. Once I got it all figured out, however, it was an extremely simple camera to operate, and the pictures are extremely high quality. It will chew through batteries, but only if you use the LCD panel extensively. I use it sparingly, preferring to take pictures the old fashioned way: through the viewfinder. My LCD went out just this last week and it is currently being repaired (under warranty). The problem with the LCD is that you can't program the camera or change settings without it. I also worry a little about the camera's durability.
Rating: Summary: very good camera Review: I bought this camera about 8 month ago and I really still like it a lot. It's a really good camera for a good price. The quality of the pics is really. The only thing I don't like is that you have to change batteries a lot because the batteries are used up pretty fast.
Rating: Summary: A piece of rubbish Review: I bought this camera on 9/21 and already the viewer through the LCD screen is broken. Can I take pics? Yes. I just can't view them on the screen before I take them anymore. Not that I really want to keep any of these pics. I know it's a cheap camera but the amount of white flecks on the jpgs I do get is ridiculous. No matter how still I am, they are almost always grainy and blurry. The only way I can clear them is by shrinking them five times smaller and working the levels in photoshop. Honnestly, this is the most regretable purchase that I ever made.
Rating: Summary: ...a very useful camera! Review: I bought two Fuji FinePix A101 a few days ago, and I have to say it is a good camera. It is accessible (cheap) and easy to use, one big advantage is that downloads pictures really fast. Maybe is not an impressive camera, but it is very useful.
Rating: Summary: Great camera-terrible software and tech service Review: I did a lot of research to determine what camera I wanted to start with. This is my first digital camera. I purchased the Fuji because I wanted an easy to use, simple, starter digital camera for a reasonalbe price. The camera itself is great. Very simple to figure out and use. THEN-I loaded the USB and editing software into my WIN98, pentium 2 Dell computer. Everytime I connected the USB cable to the camera to download images, my computer gave me fatal exception errors and crashed. I uninstalled and reinstalled the software several times and went to Fuji website and downloaded the software from them. Still, same results. I contacted Dell, in case something was wrong with my computer, they said I needed to talk with the camera manufacturer. I tried to email Fuji tech service through their web site, it gave me a message "no host found". Well, after days of this, I am fed up. No starter camera is worth this. I'm am returning this camera and going with a Kodak.
