at three years old, it still works... but not as well.......2005-01-02

I have enjoyed this camera since my MIL got it for us in 2001. But now it's starting to show it's age, and after countless uses and trip and kids we are finally needing a new one. But I like this one for "beat up" purposes. It still works ok. It captures the dust in the air in pictures and light reflects on it, but if you don't use the flash, all the pics are blurry. Good now inexperienced photographers, and to post online... but not to good quality for printing out pictures.

Very simple, dependable and good camera........2004-07-05

Guys, you can't expect from this camera some super cool things because it is basic 2.1 Mp camera but this is VERY RELIABLE and decent simple camera that has traveled with me ALL ACROSS THE WORLD and never put me down! It takes regular AA batteries and the simple optics provide unexpectedly GOOD pictures. Avoid back lighting and unusual conditions and you will be Ok. I suspect that for the price it it perfect light little camera.

I have two of them.......2004-02-01

This is an easy to use camera that you can beat the crap out of. I thought that i had lost my first one and i missed it so much i bought a second... well the first one showed up again and now i loan them both out to my high school kids for website projects. I used this camera in asia and central america and beat the heck out of it knowing i had another at home. Over the last three years I have used this camera in the rain dropped it several times and never once put it in a protective case. It still works great and my kids are still punishing both of them. with a 128MB smart media disk i can hold about 1,000 picures (on lowest quality) before i need to download.

Great little first digital camera.......2003-01-01

I've been very pleased with this small and inexpensive digital camera. It's been a good one with which to learn about digital photography. Realiable quality for family photos. Eats batteries at an alarming rate, so get an AC adapter.

I've owned this camera for 18 months now. Almost immediately, I noticed small, translucent spots on some pictures taken in certain lighting conditions. I looked at the lens under magnification (40x) and saw foreign matter on the inside of the lens. I contacted Fujifilm who told me to send it to them (prepaid of course). I enclosed a note for the technician explaining the problem, however, when the camera was returned 4 weeks later, it was in the same condition as when I sent it in, except the exterior of the camera had been cleaned by the Fujifilm technician. When I called Fujifilm about this, the supervisor told me these spots are a common occurance. He claims the lens is SO good, it will actually "see" dust on the exterior of the lens. He also told me it is impossible for dust or other foreign matter to be on the inside of the lens. I have a camera and dozens of pictures which disprove this "claim." The camera is ok for a point and shoot, but the warranty is worthless.
