Caroline has that camera Moz its brilliant, I've got a couple of big digi camera's for work which are alot better for reproduction fine art prints etc, but that one as a ordinary camera is great and the quality surprised for the cost of it, the only thing against it is its a bit bulky for a camera of its size, I mean it doesn't fit nicely in your pocket but I'd highly recommend it.

I have a casio exilim. very compact. very good pictures for its size. mine is discontinued, it seems they only do 7+ megapixels now! who needs pictures that big? lol. mine is 6 megapixels, plenty big enough

Hope it has a good "anti-shake" setting for the morning hand shakes moz.

I agree with Richard, a bit bulky but a top camera, you wont be disappointed with the picture and colour quality

I have its brother the s5500, very pleased with it. and for that price you cant go wrong.

there is one on ebay for £80
only thing i dont like is the strap, if you get one, do tie a knot in the starp (both sides) as it tends to come "undone" i nearly lost a fuji camera that way

I had a Fuji Finepix that went tits up a couple of months after I had it, took it back and had it replaced with the same.That one gave up after about 14 months.I currently have a Kodak which has been trouble free so far in the 2 1/2 years I've had it

must have been you

only other trouble i had was with a s700 , i wasnt watching where i was going and walked into a wall, lens first, it didnt work after that (but that was my fault)
