Summary: Digital is the only way to go
Review: Initially I got my Fujifilm Digital FinePix 2600 Zoom to get pictures of the family in e-mail, but after just a short time I have diecovered what outstanding sharp pictures this camera takes. The special features, i.e. micro-photo and self timer, with the various flash capabilities and telephoto features have made this camera the first I reach for when taking pictures not only of the family, but landscapes, live action and special events of all types. I am very pleased with this camera and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a digital.

Summary: Price/Performance with Quality
Review: I really like this one.It is one of the best for its price range.
A friend just bought Sony DSC-P51 for [money]+tax, which comes only with 2x digital zoom with same resolution. I compare both cameras and mine is the better one, and the cheaper one. And Fuji is not a no-name brand especially when it comes to cameras.
Pictures that I've taken; indoor or outdoor, are crystal clear so far. In one picture in e Normal quality mode, you can even see the pores on a person's skin. Way better than my conventional camera with same zoom features. Plus this one is loaded with options like zooming on objects behind glass,taking pictures of people at night WITH the city lights visible and alternative image focusing etc.
The drawbacks are: Its menu is a little complicated and I had hard time installing the USB dirver to make it work. I actually had to make a google search to find 3 different USB drivers until the computer recognized the camera. All in all it is a great buy!

Summary: Just a little too big
Review: I bought the Fuji Finepix from Amazon after spending a lot of time comparing reviews and prices. It sounded like it offered the best value for money. However, when I received it I couldn't help but be a little disappointed. Although the camera is quite easy to use, and the pictures look good, it's just a little bit too big! I really wanted a simple camera that I can carry around easily and take a quick snap of something that takes my fancy. Because of it's size, I don't think the Fuji Finepix is quite what I need.For other people, the Fuji may be appropriate. However, I have returned mine and ordered the more expensive Canon Powershot instead. It costs... more, but it is about half the size of the Fuji Finepix - much easier to carry around unobtrusively. Picture quality seems about the same, and the Canon has more features, so I think I will be happier with that instead.

Summary: Fuji
Review: Recommend based on price and features, super easy to use with the mac. At first I got blurry close-up pictures of my boy, but putting the camera in Macro mode for close ups fixed it for me.

Summary: Great Camera-software not as easy as the camera
Review: I have been shopping for my first didgital camera for 2 weeks, comparing reviews, features and anything else avaliable! I settled on this camera because it had the features I had decided I needed and I happened into a great deal price-wise. I'm not one to read every word of a manual,( only when absolutely necessary!) but this camera was easy to figure out with a little input from the manual and a knowledgeable salesman. The software however, was another story! Once I actually took my first picture and was able to get the software working though, I was really impressed! The self timer was easy to master- the options are easily applied and work! -and the battery life is surprisingly good compared to the horror stories told in most reveiws for digital cameras! The camera has an automatic feature that allows picture taking in low light to be as easy as in full light; and since I'm still new at this, I'm certain it will become old hat in no time to use the other features (I've tried them all with the help of the manual, but I'm sure the manual will collect dust soon!). The software was a challenge, but as I write this review I have to admit most software that proclaims to be Windows XP compatible is a challenge, so I can't say with any certainty if the problem lies with Fuji or Windows XP. All in all, I'm more than satisfied with my purchase, to date. The camera itself is small yet sturdy and the results are beyond what I expected after the all of the comparisons between 2 and 3 mp's I was subjected to by the various salespeople. The pictures are sharp, clean and the color is great! (and it's easily enhanced right on the LCD screen if you don't like it!) Fuji is definitely a viable product for this price! I would highly recommend this camera as a first time camera to those who are somewhat knowledgeable in the tech-field, however if you're like the woman standing next me when I bought mine who was ...'loooking for a camera for her husband that had no difficulty in using with his computer...' look to one of the cameras with a docking station and single button load to the pc. This isn't technologically challenging (or I for one would've returned mine!) but it does require some knowledge and experience with installing and running (expecially with the windows XP version!)programs and connecting hardware properly. (I consider myself not quite in the 'for Dummies' arena, but not not that far from it, if that helps).

Summary: LOW LIGHT NIGHTMARE!!
Review: THIS CAMERA IS HORRIBLE IN NORMAL EVERYDAY INDOOR SHOOTING CONDITIONS. YOU ARE LUCKY IF YOU CAN GET ONE CLEAR PICTURE OUT OF 20 INDOORS. IT SIMPLY WILL NOT FOCUS INDOORS! I AM AMAZED AT ALL THE EXCELLENT REVIEWS! PICTURES TAKEN OUTSIDE COME OUT INCREDIBLY CLEAR BUT UNFORTUNETLY MOST OF MY PHOTO'S ARE OF MY 3 MONTH OLD SON AND TAKEN INDOORS.
DO NOT BUY IF MOST OF YOUR PHOTOS ARE TAKEN IN NORMAL INDOOR (ALL LIGHTS ON) SHOOTING CONDITIONS.

Summary: An excellent camera/wonderful value.
Review: I've had this camera for a couple of weeks and it really has greatly exceeded my expectations. The following will be random thoughts so far about the product:
1. The camera is even smaller than I expected, which is certainly a good thing. For those who do not want to carry around a bulky camera, this is excellent. It fits comfortably in my top shirt pocket.
2. The build is fairly strong, although not terrific. As with any piece of equipment, you have to be careful to not drop it.
3. The camera takes 2 AA rechargable batteries. The battery life in the camera is impressive. On a recent day, I took 152 pictures (using the LCD screen for some shots, only looking through the viewfinder for others, no flash) and the camera still wasn't showing "low battery" at the end of the day. These batteries cost about [$-$]each battery and are available at CompUSA or most speciality camera stores. A battery charger is also included.
4. The memory card slot is a little risky. By that I mean you have to be careful when putting it in. The cards are delicate and to put them in and pull them out requires not a huge amount of care, but you can't be walking and change it while you walk.
5. The camera is wonderfully user friendly. There is a manual lens cap of sorts (slide it over, it clicks twice and you're ready to shoot, turn off the camera and then slide it back). The LCD screen offers bright, easy-to-read options. You can control the flash (red-eye control, etc.) and adjust things like white level/EV. The camera is a max of 2 megapixels, but the user can adjust the levels - 2 megapixel fine, normal, basic and then 1 megapixel normal/basic and finally, VGA (which is something like 120k, I think) The LCD screen is also a very nice size. While it's not easy to take the memory card out on-the-fly, it's very simple to quickly change up quality, effects, etc.
6. The camera can take 20 seconds of video. These files are about 3 megabytes in size and you can take multiple little videos, depending on the memory card.
7. The camera includes a 16 megabyte memory card, which is very nice to start off, although I highly recommend at least a 64 meg. card. (at the lowest resolution, the camera can take over 400 pictures on a 64mb card)
8. The LCD screen offers how many images are left, even when you switch to another resolution.
9. The camera only takes SmartMedia cards. Still, amazon.com, for example, has plenty of these cards to choose from and they're not terribly expensive.
10. Overall, an excellent camera. While this maybe not be profession-level, it takes excellent pictures that make for strong prints.

Summary: Great first camera
Review: This is my first Digital camera, and I'm very happy with it. It takes great pictures, easy to use, Easy USB transfer to my computer, takes only 2 AA batterys which last a long time in my opinion, also came with it's own battery charger and 2 NI-CAD batterys. Mine came with a 16mb card and a 32 mb smartmedia I got the 32mb card through a specail deal. So I'd recommend buying a larger smartmedia card right away or even a few smaller cards. rather than a 128 buy two 64 mb ...
