PROS: High ISO performance, Great lens (if a TAD slow at f3.3) w/ it's 35mm equiv. 28mm to 140mm, LARGE sensor, metal build, LCD that works just fine in sunlight, good features, great color, no fringing..

CONS: Kinda slippery, smaller than I expected, noisy (almost sounds like it's trying really hard and might break down), flimsy feeling menu button (it moves loosely), silver color.

PROS: easy to use, packed with tons of features that makes it easy for novice users, stunning quality pictures and movies, comes with rechargable battery

CONS: none. I'm very happy with everything

PROS: it malfunctioned before I could find any

CONS: 12 days after I bought it, when I turned it on It gave three fatal lens errors and even refused to retract the lenses. It has been like this ever since. see my photo evidence

  Very good picture quality esp in low lights (indoors)

PROS: Exceptional good picture quality for a point & shoot, especially at low lights. Can even snap indoor without flash at ISO800 and still very good for prints. With the promotion (got mine at ~USD250 plus free 4GB card), it is really value for money. Would be great if Fuji added the manual settings for A and S - then I can really leave my DSLR behind most times.

CONS: Battery life! Managed only ~150 shots with some videos and lots of fiddling around, replay, etc. Would still prefer physical dial for the few key modes.

OVERALL SCORE:8/10

PROS: Good value for it's performance.

CONS: Slippery case, easy to drop.230 pics per charge.

PROS: Good resolution, solidly made, good zoom, many options, nice LCD screen

CONS: Pink banding on LCD sometimes, shoots dark photos routinely

  worth the money, great for a pocket cam, imagine a larger sensor!

PROS: For a pocket camera, it is quite awesome, low light, it does not blow out as easily as my slr (by far) in daylight. I have to say I am very impressed. A lot of people prefer the shots of this to the Nikon d80 I use. I also find the virtual wheel for options very good, some folk seem to hate it and they have ot used the cam yet. I got mine in Tokyo 2 weeks ago. About 380 USD. Good value.

CONS: Style is bad, but who cares...
