Best of all its pink

Ah the perfect camera for a girl. Easy to use does all the thinking for you and gives perfect results. Just those few points above would make me buy it but also its small compact fits in handbag and the quality of the picture sublime.

Oh yes and best of all its pink!

your answer

u get a cable, the player a small cd with instructions ans headphones and a lil pouch with it the player is very good and trust me i have had a few some people say its not that loud but there a options in the settings for high and low turn it to high and it melts ur ears

Handy pocket snappy camera.

This camera is the lightest and smallest camera I have owned so far. It has features I find very useful, for example the shoot and choose function is great for shooting action shots.
It will easily fit in a largish shirt's lapel pocket. It starts up quickly for those moments when you need a camera bit quick.
I have only given it 3 stars though because the picture quality is only average. It may be 8 megapixel but I think I was achieving better pictures with my Canon a70 3.2 megapixel camera 5 years back or more. There is considerable noise in most pictures. Colour leakage around things and lndscape pictures seem a little flat.
But if you want a well made, lightweight camera at a reasonable price you'd do well to consider this.

not as good as i expected

I have read all the revues and thought it would be an ideal replacement for my aging fuji finepix, but I cannot make it take crisp, clear pictures and have tried most of the settings but have now given up.
It may be that I have got a duff one and am in the process of trying to return it. I also found that it eats batteries and even hi powered rechargeables don't seem to last long

VALUE

Im not normally a camera person, I always forget to take them wherever I go and even when I do take them I forget to take pictures. So...I thought I'd give the whole camera thing another try. Given the fact that I was fairly sure I wouldn't use it very often I figured I should get myself a cheap camera. I saw the Fuji Finepix and after looking around it appeared to be a fairly sure good option. When I received the camera the first thing I noticed was how small it felt. Now its not as small of some of the really expensive on the market but considering the price and the quality this is a very compact camera. Now...the quality...I must admit I wasn't expecting anything from this camera, I thought it would be average at best. I was therefore stunned to realise how good the quality was in this camera. The build quality was brilliant, everything felt solid, the buttons felt well built and and not the kind of quality you would expect from a unit in this price bracket. The picture quality was impressive, although not the best. The greatest thing about this camera is the value. It might not be the best camera on the market and it may not look like the best camera on the market but for the price it really is unbelievable.

This camera is not for the budding professional photographer, but for someone who wants a few holiday snaps or some photos on a night out this has got to be your best option. I have found that the 4x zoom is plenty for these kind of photos. The 9MP quality is also good enough for these kind photos. If you put the pictures from this camera onto a computer you will see the quality of this camera in full. The pictures look great, they are clear and crisp with great depth of color.

This camera has got me using cameras properly and I really didn't expect that from something of this price.

Practical, pink and perfect!

As a typical 11 year old girl I opted for this camera just because it was pink and was not disappointed. It is so easy to use and yet the photo quality is breath-taking. It does everything that you need it to do. It's many modes allow photos to be just how you want them. The movie quality is fantastic and I love it how you can personalize it right to the last detail. It's large screen is great and ables you to see your photo clearly. When I bought it, on the label it said anti-blur technology. I thought this was just a bribe but when I tried to photograph my dog (who CANNOT sit still and is continuously fidgeting) it really didn't blur! It is very cheap as it is a GREAT camera (and bargain!) I would definately recommend this for anyone whether you're a novice to photography or a snapshot pro!

Just give it some time

This is a fantastic little camera at a great price. I got this to share with my wife as both are cameras had finally bit the dust. I usually had larger slr-bridge cameras so thought a small one would make a nice change for taking out and about. It takes great pictures, is very tough and has a nice selection of presets. I have not used the manual setting much as all the automatic presets cover a wide range of scenes. I think the only people that will be disappointed with this are those that have not given it much time. If you learn how the menus work and where all the scene presets are it really is a great little camera.

PLEASE READ

LISTEN! the only reason i am rating this camera 1 star is to get the attention of people who are pessimistic and want to know the downsides of a camera.

I know a lot about cameras and this is truely brilliant! i know my review wont impact the score on this camera because over 50 people have voted it 5/5.

trust me this camera is magnificant. so many subtle yet beautiful features. Even the feel is nice, its made out of metal and plastic in perfect quantities.

If you want an easy point and shoot with good quality images but also with nice subtle features then choose this.

Not up to scratch! Fujifilm FinePix F100fd Digital Camera - Silver (12.0MP, 5x Optical Zoom) 2.7" LCD

I have had three compact Fujis and have been very pleased with them. Not so with this one. The colours were distorted, especially in reduced lighting, such as inside a church. I returned the camera to Camera Box and after a very annoying two months was relieved to receive a refund. I would not deal with Camera Box again.

just excellent

I just got this camera a few weeks ago and have been very impressed with it since. The quality of the photos and ease of use are superb. It has some nice software too and the screen is big enough to review all your photos. The battery lasts enough to forget when the last time you had recharged it was.
For around £250, I think this is a top competitor.

'I am well impressed!'

After many weeks of deliberation I decided to purchase the Fuji Finepix s8100fd. I ordered it from Amazon on Thursday afternoon (about 3.30pm) and it arrived in the Channel Islands the following day at 11.30am - what superb service! Thank you! I went out on Saturday to see what the camera could do - it was a very bright, blustery day. The pics I took were great, even with the zoom. I used the image stabiliser for most of the pics - and there wasn't one blurred image. I took a picture of Castle Cornet through a shop window - the detail, colour, etc are so very clear. (I haven't yet printed onto proper photo paper, but I am sure I won't be disappointed). Yesterday, Sunday, it was very dull and stormy - and I captured some very good images of the sea crashing over the rocks, etc. I used the full zoom (digital+optical) to photograph the rock + flag (forgotten name), which is way off the coast - and you can see the Guernsey flag very clearly. I then went onto a flower festival and even managed to capture a bee pollinating the flowers! For a very amatuer photographer, who wanted a little more than a small compact camera could do, I am well impressed with this camera. I have now purchased a Lowepro bag for the camera (Edit 110), for carrying around + an SD card.

I read many glowing reviews on other cameras but chose this camera, over the Panasonic DMC-FZ18, because it seemed more robust and was more comfortable to hold. I felt the Panasonic had a 'plastic' feel about it - it didn't feel very strong at all. I have not been able to find any reviews on the Fuji camera, despite many weeks of trawling the Internet. Hopefully this will be useful to other people. I haven't yet begun to look at what else it can do - when I do I will get back to you all.

Quality camera but bad customer support

I got this camera for Christmas and loved everything about it...got some quality macro shots and fits in your pocket nicely so good to take everywhere.

Sadly after 6 months the dial wouldn't stick on video mode and amazon said they couldn't replace as they had none in stock (although it showed stock online just at twice the price) and couldn't repair it.

I now regret not taking it elsewhere to get it fixed as it is a great camera apart from that 1 issue...I'm now trying to find it for a reasonable price elsewhere.

Excellent Camera

I needed a new camera for a holiday. I had specific requirements: easy to use point and shoot, reasonable zoom, some flexibility if I felt the need to be creative - and a camera that would produce good quality photographs.
I looked in a few photography magazines - was confused by the huge range of digital cameras - came to the net (realising that it would probably be worse).
This camera appeared to have the features I wanted and whilst, alas, there was only 1 review, it was a good one by someone who seemed to know his stuff.
When the camera arrived I couldn't get over how small it was - tho' once I was used to handling it, not at all uncomfortable to hold.
Personally, I didn't find the instruction booklet particularly easy to understand (tho' I do have a short attention span). Over the course of 2 weeks before the holiday I spent several 20 minute sessions familiarising myself with the camera and its operation.
I was extremely pleased with it. The zoom is great - with the option to 'extend the zoom' - which I found useful (went to Lake Como, Italy and this functionality was essential to some fantastic Lake shots).
The 'Intelligent Auto' (the camera does it for you) is the point and shoot functionality I want and also useful when those who aren't used to the camera take photos. The face recognition system is great for these reasons also.
I agree that the 3" LCD makes it so much easier to see what the photo will look like and also for viewing afterwards.
I advise that you buy a second rechargeable battery (incredibly expensive - £50!).
So far, the camera has been relatively painless to use and the photos are excellent: I'm really pleased.
