The viewscreen is smaller than some other similar cameras, but the camera itself is pretty tiny too. I wish this was the kind of camera that operated on AAA batteries or other easily/cheaply replaceable batteries that I could carry as spares. But other than that, I'm happy with the product. Great camera for the money. Even in its case it won't take up too much room in your pocket, which is good. My only complaint is that the battery life isn't as long as I'd like it to be. I have no problems with the features or performance. Twice I've taken it to parties just to see the battery die within 3 hours or so.
They should have stood behind their product a little better rather than charging me $61 to fix the darn thing. Fuji says they won't fix it under warranty. I ordered this camera recently and found it to be a wonderful camera. Then the LCD looked like it had a crack in it even though we don't recall it EVER being dropped.
Takes beautiful, clear pics, and truly easy to use. Great little camera for the price.
So best to purchase one with it or it would be a waste. It only holds THREE pictures without a sim card which I am upset about cause I didnt get a sim card right away. I wasn't expecting this camera to be so small, but its smaller than my own phone. Its neat and pictures are okay for the price of the camera.
To return to shoot mode press the shutter. Best not to store the camera with the battery installed and carry a spare. A lot is wrong with this camera except the image quality which is wonderful. I wonder if Fuji can't say how good it is because it might be better than their upmarket cameras that are supposed to be low noise. Typical for little cameras.The battery seems to run down over a few weeks if left in the camera. Usable night mode with a tripod. This also gave me a spare battery.
Big deal, with 8 megapixels there is plenty to crop out. The corners are cut off at full wide.
The lens might not have much telephoto but that made it easy to manufacture a very good lens.Variable shutter to 8 seconds in fireworks mode. At least it uninstalled neatly and now I use the reader.The menus are in seemingly random order but include useful functions.
There is about half as much noise at the same ISO as my Canon point and shoots which is amazing. This is really the best way to do it but they could have programmed both ways instead of the stupid message.The software didn't do much except stop my card reader from working (Win 2K).
If the LCD screen has a vertical line through it when there is a bright light such as the sun it won't be on the picture, go ahead and shoot. Adequate for some sunsets, that's one of the major reasons I love it.
ISO 64 to 1600 in "manual".Excellent color.I bought two as my observation is that when a camera this good comes along it is quickly superseded with something worse.
