Advantages: Face Detection, Large LCD, Easy to acheive professional quality
Disadvantages: Heavy

...Having replaced my Fuji S5500 with the Fujifilm FinePix S6500fd, I was a little taken aback at the controls and the size of the owners manual. The quality of the photos are totally outstanding and it has 10mb of internal memory, nice touch. but no supplied XD card, I guess a trade off has to be made somewhere. The large LCD screen makes taking pics easier and coupled with the automatic face detection it helps to ensure that the faces are by and large in focus. There is a large range of presets and there is the manual mode where the user can, if they know what to do, can achieve professional quality images with ease. Some may not like using the manual zoom, some will love it. I am in love with te entire package. The menus are well laid out and easily accessible. Overall I am extremely happy with the camera and I am still learning... Read review

Advantages: Looks Good, Takes nice pictures, SLR
Disadvantages: The View Finder is hard to see out off.

...The Fuji Finepix s3500. I bought this camera for my Photography college course and it is a great camera for the money. It takes great outdoor pictures it can have filters attached etc. Fuji are a very good make of digital camera at an affordable price. This camera has a 6 times optical Zoom. The Resolution Can be changed from 4.0 to 0.3mp. It takes an XD Card. The view finder is a bit hard to use but the Lcd Screen Makes up for that. The camera is light weight and easy to grip. The shape is very nice and looks very smart. In the box you get The camera, 4 AA Batteries but it is better to get Rechargable ones to save money in the Future. A Bag, A Strap, an Adapter to attach Filters etc., A 16mb XD Memory Card but i would recommend Getting a bigger to store more pictures, A Usb Cable, Lens cap to keep the Lens Clean and Tv cables...

Advantages: Good Starter Cam
Disadvantages: Flimsy Build Quality

...In my opinion Fuji has been leader in bringing out the latest technology but this one does dissappoint. First of all the camera isn't that solid and easily scratches, there have even been instances where the camera has managed to scratch itself whilst being in the case! The quality however isn't that bad but isn't that good either it easily picks out a lot blur so there isn't much chance of a distorted picture, but an A4 printout did reveal a somewhat pixelated image and a slight colour differential. The camera is a handy size and it has all the effects you'd expect a digital camera to have, the menu system is also easy to access. The best part of the camera is probably the battery life I've had the camera for two weeks now and have taken it out about 5 times, 2 of those times the camera was constantly used in the same period so...

Advantages: very user friendly
Disadvantages: none

...being a 68 year old male unused to cameras i was delighted when my son bought me a Fuji Fine Pix a405 prior to our trip to a Australia. the camera proved to be very user friendly the instructions were easy to follow the location of and removal of the battery and memory card is a simple operation the LCD screen is certainly the best i have seen size wise and the clarity of picture is excellent a truly wonderful camera. All of the photos taken so far have been admired by family and friends and the large screen has been noticed and favourable comments made. This is a camera from which i have taken great photos and are proud to own. all attachments are very useful and easy to install highly recommended.... Read review

Advantages: mp3 player, video images recording
Disadvantages: no optical zoom, poor lens focuse

...The fuji pinepix 40i is a pretty good camera except that it is not equipped with optical zoom and not using Lithium Ion batteries. Effective range is also limited, from 0.4 to 2.5m only. It has no manual white balance feature. And you need to buy smartmedia card with IDs to record and play MP3 songs. The lens is limited to 36mm on 35mm camera unlike lens with optical zoom which can go up to 114mm on 35mm camera. Overall, it is not as good as a fuji pinepix 4700 (except for the MP3 facility) but it costs less as well. You can get one with £445 with an 8mb smartmedia card. A good camera to buy if you are not that particular with zoom facility.... Read review

Advantages: Does everything
Disadvantages: No lens or memory card

...Definitely a camera for those with a bit more cash and looking for an SLR Nikon bodied camera. You buy the camera with no lens but then Fuji assume you have Nikon Lenses to fit. It also comes with no memory card and you will probably need something large like an IBM Micro Drive It is a 6 Mega Pixel output which means huge prints and has every manual control of any good SLR. Unlike the Nikon D1 it comes with all the cables and some seriously useful camera control software. All in all an affordable solution to those wishing to switch to digital from their existing SLR. There are many different 'kits' available. Keep your eye on content and price and shop for the best buy.... Read review

Advantages: Quality pictures
Disadvantages: Charging

...The fuji Finepix 401 is a light weight, video and picture digital camera with 3x optical zoom and high qualtiy photography, it is easy to use and one of those cameras which you do not need a manual to master, and in danger of 'cussing' my own kind, its one for the blondes or those with blonde days. For quick snaps or photos that belong in the Tate mordern The fuji Finepix encompases it all, im sure that this opinion is too biased but as this is my first digital camera it is well suited. The finepix 401 has 3 modes: viewing/gallery, video/recording, and picture/photo. Both videos and photos can be accesed through the gallery/viewing area. Recording time is 15 seconds although i would advise not taking many as this uses up vauable space on the camera's memory size. The cam-2-Pc transfer is quick and easy once the included software is used... Read review

Advantages: Small enough to fit in a pocket
Disadvantages: No camera case

...FINE TO PIX FUJI I have owned the Fuji Film FinePix Z10 for around two months. It is red and quite funky. I am not a trendy teenager, in fact I am over sixty, but really love it's trendy appearance and also the fact that it is neat enough just to slip in my pocket or handbag. It is also funky enough to draw admiring glances from other people, especially youngsters. It is easy to download pictures on to my PC which with other cameras has sometimes been a problem. There is an extensive handbook with it, which as yet I have only read the basic instructions. I am sure there is much more that I could do with my camera. Every time i use it I discover new things it can do and am loving experimenting with it. I am not completely happy with the position of the viewfinder and have to remember to keep my fingers out of the way. I think... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use, good first digital camera.
Disadvantages: No control

...the buttons at the back of the camera, and can also edit your pictures actually on the camera itself - or at least, you can trim them. You cannot adjust contrast or brightness. The disadvantages are that you do not have control over white balance, and there is no EV (exposure value) setting so you'd better have a good image editing software package! It does come with a Fuji Viewer, which I found crashed frequently and eventually disappeared from my old Windows 98 computer. Having upgraded to Windows XP one can, of course, use the scanner and camera wizard. The camera feels fairly solid. My only comment against is that after 2 years I lent it to my daughter who managed to break the zoom button on the back. Fuji were very good, and did repair it for £70 - basically replacing the back of the camera. All in all, a good beginners camera.... Read review
