Pontos Fortes: it provides high quality photograph and comprehensive operation.
Pontos Fracos: The blind button is too close to power switch, leading accidental power off.
Resumo: 2005-01-01 22:11:05 This product is a best choice for me at this price level. Its almost professional settings offer me multiple choices for taking photos. Its big screen also attracts me a lot, although it is a little buttery-consuming. Overall, i would like to highly recommend it to everyone.

Pontos Fortes: Large LCD screen, response times, tweakablity, resolution
Pontos Fracos: slightly bulky, flimsy flash mechnism, weak night shooting
Resumo: This is a great point and shoot camera for intermediate amateur photographers who are looking for a lot of features in an affordable package. For the money, FujiFilm packs a ton of shooting power into a sweet piece of hardware. The 4X optical zoom comes in handy when composing shots and the 6.3MP resolution ability allows for quality post-editing.
The LCD screen is bright, clear and ample. Tweaking resolution, ISO settings, flash modes, etc. are easily changed with a few button strokes.
The camera body is slightly uncomfortable in the pocket, but this is understandable with a camera of this caliber. Build quality is good with the exception of the manual pop-up flash mechanism. This is definitely a weak point that should be looked after. I'd hate to see the repair bill for a camera like this.

Pontos Fortes: * Fast startup time.
* Easy to use right out of the box
* Advanced options and features allows greater range of control
Pontos Fracos: * Camera viewfinder LED next to optical viewfinder makes it difficult to see through viewfinder in low light situations (the LED tends to blind you)
Resumo: Although I just recieved this camera a few days ago, it has already proved itself a worthwhile investment. The camera truly shines in picture quality and shutter speed. For the price, I would heartily recommend to anyone who needs a great point and shoot camera.

Pontos Fortes: Wide 32.5mm lens, well compressed 6.3 mp to 1.6mb. 800asa mode, very good color and resolution. AA batteries, very fast startup, low lag time.
Pontos Fracos: no synch port for external flash
Resumo: 2005-05-22 09:22:40 UPDATE FROM PREVIOUS REVIEW: Paid $332 at Buydig, included shipping and 512mb XD card. The Fujifilm E550 offers excellent features and performance. It is quick to start, quick to focus and very low on lag time. The exposure is also very accurate. In terms of weight, at 8.5 oz with batteries (the XD card weighs nothing) it can be pocketed, but is borderline bulky because of the handgrip (which is very good as a grip). It offers a 32.5mm (35mm equivalent) wide angle, which is best in its class, and with its 4x zoom, goes up to 130mm (35mm equivalent). The flash exposure and color balance is very good, especially the custom white balance. Too bad the camera doesn't offer external flash synch capability (very few do in this class). The 6 megapixel resolution and compression produces the best pictures for normal printing. The 12mp modes may be good for producing and printing large posters, but don't add anything for computer viewing. The 3mp mode offers an 800 ISO rating, and does a very good job where the lighting is low (and flash won't work) or to stop motion. The image quality is very good, almost excellent. AA size batteries offer cheap and readily available power. The movies are also quite good (640x480 at 30fps) and compress to about 50mb per minute (full video is 200mb per minute). Best of all, the camera is only about $265 shipped from Buydig (a great on-line store).
I just purchased a Sunpak Digital Flash Adapter with built-in slave. I used my old Vivitar 285 with it and on mode #1 it works great (after I used a piece of aluminum foil to create a contact). It even works in redeye mode (the preflash doesn’t trigger the slave unit). Of course, the Fuji E550 must be set to manual and the F-stop preset to coordinate with one of the Vivitar’s 4 flash settings. At F4, at 100ASA, I can take a picture at 60 feet. I plan to shoot a wedding with this setup.

Pontos Fortes: Plenty of good features, leaving scope for personal settings of aperture etc..
Good zoom,clear sharp pictures
Optical viewer useful in strong sunlight
Pontos Fracos: ON/OFF power button.
Cover for USB etc. outlets
Resumo: Unfortunately my camera has had to be returned to Fuji to re-set the software.
IF THE CAMERA IS IN A CASE AND SET FOR "SHOOT" MODE TOUCHING THE POWER BUTTON EXTENDS THE LENS WHICH IF IT IS UNABLE TO EXTEND FULLY THE CAMERA NEEDS RESETTING!! TAKE CARE.
If the software could incorporate a device to ensure that the camera is in "View" mode before it could be switched off this problem would not occur.
As I discovered re-setting includes refurbishment by Fuji and IT IS EXPENSIVE.

Pontos Fortes: Great point and shoot camera with manual settings available. The battery like is very good.
Pontos Fracos: None.
Resumo: I got this camera 3 weeks ago and I highly recommend it. Great for point and shoot in the 6 scene settings and has an option for manual settings for the experienced photographers. It is small enough to fit in your shirt pocket. Good grip if you are a right hander. I had to buy a 256MB memory card as the 16MB card included in the package is too small. I was able to get about 80 photos(using flash for some and the LCD) from a single charge. Most menu choices are intuitive. It is easy to operate and takes great pictures. I like the 6 MP resolution and the colors are great.

Pontos Fortes: Easy to use, best 6mp camera available out there.
Pontos Fracos: None
Resumo: I have been using this one for last one month, Its the best amateur camera out there. If you are like me who doesn't know much technical details this is the one to go for. Great resolutions and works pretty good at low light conditions too. Few of my friends had this, I was very impressed by their views and www.dpreviews.com gave it 5* ratings.

Pontos Fortes: Open quickly, vivid color, mannul control
Pontos Fracos: LCD is not clear under strong light. It doesn't focus well at small distance.
Resumo: This is my first digital camera. I love it so far, especially the color in the chrome (high saturation)mode. The only thing that I don't like it is that it cannot focus at all under 70 cm. The battery life is excellent.

Pontos Fortes: Great for point and shoot, Many advanced settings, Small, Works on 2 AA batteries.
Pontos Fracos: No twistable LCD, No Auto pop-up flash.
Resumo: 2004-12-22 08:56:29 I got this camera 3 days ago and I highly recommend it. Great for point and shoot in the 6 scene settings and has an option for manual settings for the experienced photographers. It is small enough to fit in your cargos but not in a jeans pocket. The power button is slightly concealed so it is difficult for small kids to turn it on and off. Great grip if you are a right hander. 6MP is a plus, in case you want to blow up some of the vacation photos. I had to buy a 256MB memory card as the 16MB card included in the package is too small. I was able to get about 60 photos(using flash for all and the LCD) from a single charge. Most menu choices are intuitive.
There are few negatives. It has no twistable LCD. Check the Cannon A95 if this feature is important for you. Flash pop-up is not automatic, you have to press a button to manually open it each time. Considering most family photos are indoors this is an inconvenience. Fuji should have integrated the flash in the body.

Pontos Fortes: Very fast startup, uses regular AA batteries, fairly small,option to add lenses, ability to take in RAW mode, great value for price, large 2 inch LCD screen
Pontos Fracos: Untethered cover for USB port, uses expensive xD Card, accessories are expensive, no cradle included, 16MB xD card is a joke, flash recharge time slightly slow, cannot zoom while in video mode.
Resumo: I tried a Samsung Digimax 530, Olympus C60 and this one. I was looking for a compact digital camera which will be easy to carry instead of an SLR, take fast pictures of my 2year old, easily upload to my HTPC to see on TV and for my wife to make prints comparable to our Olympus point and shoot camera.
Compared to the other two, Fuji starts superfast, especially when in wide angle mode, like under 2s. The camera has options to adjust ISO all the way to 800 ( though only 3MP a that level) and the pictures even then are relatively low noise. At regular indoor lighting, the flash recharges in about 4 seconds ( a little slow), the pictures though are well lit and not washed out. In daylight the pictures are just gorgeous. If you use the interpolated 12MP level , the pictures are very sharp, well saturated colors and very life like. This camera uses 12MP shots and compresses them to 6MP and so using 12 MP is definitely better than 6MP eventhough it is interpolated, however in a 64MB card you get only 19 shots at this level. I did not see any big imporvement in quality with RAW mode. With all shots, there is very little need for picture enhancement and infact in PS Elements, autofix does not change anything at all, they are that good. The exposure, aperture can be adjusted manually also, only draw back is you canot set up exposure more than 2 seconds, so for long time bulb shots like in SLR, it is not possible. The flash does synchro for prolonged exposure. There is some shake at low lights and so indoor natural candid shots of my child, without a flash is not possible.
The video is surprisingly clean, though it records only at 320x240, but does 30fps and only limited by card capacity, unlike canon cameras. I printed plenty of pictures and at 6 MP level is where 4x6 prints are comparable to regular film prints, even though manufacturers say 3MP is enough the colors are only rich enough at this level. My XP regonises it immediatly without any drivers and I did not try the Finepix software as I use Photoshop Elements already.
I finally decided to go with Fuji because it much cheaper the the more expensive canon or nikon for comparable freatures especially with the $50 rebate till January and the picture quality is on par with some 7-8MP ( I tried the canon and Nikon ones ) level with half the cost. I am a happy camper now.

Pontos Fortes: Ergonomic, fast, large zoom range, good image quality, a lot of useful features.
Pontos Fracos: Mode wheel too small and too soft, monitor lacks contrast, flash shots sometimes difficult (no assist light).
Resumo: I bought this camera four weeks ago as an exchange for my three weeks old Canon A95. The Canon is a nice camera but it turned out that it was too heavy and too slow, and it lacks a battery status indicator. The Fuji E550 is more than 30% lighter, is much faster and has a lot of useful functions, similar to the Canon. It features picture quality modes up to 12 MP and ISO settings up to 800! Power consumption is good for 150-200 shots and an indicator warns of low batteries on time. Bottom line: A good and handy camera with a lot of useful features.

Pontos Fortes: price, size, clarity of photos, ease of use, features, rechargable batteries, size of LCD screen, zoom
Pontos Fracos: inability to add different lens,
Resumo: I have had a number of lower level digital cameras but never one of this quality, especially for the price of a little over $300. The camera at this stage is even better than I thought. I am looking forward to using it much more and trying the software. At this time I highly recommend this unit which is easy to use, gives a 6+ megapixil photo and has a great 4X optical zoom plus 3X digital on top. It's a winner!

Pontos Fortes: Easy to Use, Small, great pics on 6M level
Pontos Fracos: needs to come with bigger xD card. cover for USB adapter coudl get easily lost - not connected.
Resumo: I like this camera and would buy again. It is very lightweight but sturdy. It is very easy to use. I think it should come with a bigger memory card included in the bundle. It comes with an easy to understand manual.

Pontos Fortes: Best valued camera on the market. High resolution. Camera is easy to learn how to use. Fast USB transfer rates.
Pontos Fracos: Horrible night pictures. Too small. Eye-hole for viewing taking pictures is too flush up against back of camera--my oily nose goes into the LCD screen.
Resumo: I have been wanting to purchase a digital camera for such a long time, but I could never find a good camera for a good price. After doing a lot of research, I decided to purchase the Mintola Z3 (4 megapixel, 12x optical zoom) for $350 dollars.
I was just about to purchase the Mintola Z3 until I saw the Fujifilm E550 camera for sale for $300 - $50 (Fujifilm mail-in rebate) - $5 (Pricegrabber.com mail-in rebate) = $245! I think that this is the best camera for the price that you can find right now. I see a lot of 5+ megapixel cameras in the sales paper for way over $300 dollars.
Despite the price, when I received the camera, my first impressions were: "Hey, this camera is too small!" Now, I know that size probably doesn't matter with a lot of people, but I just hate awkward sized electronic devices. For instance, when the XBOX came out, they had these huge controllers that were heavy and bulky. I hated them so much. Eventually Microsoft remade the controllers; they made them smaller. I hope they would re-make the Fujifilm E550 so that it was a little larger--that would be great.
After toying with the camera for several hours and taking about 200+ photos, it was getting late, and getting much darker. I noticed that the pictures were also getting darker. I then took the camera outside, keep in mind that it is night time now, and took some pictures. Now, I am not a professional photographer, but the pictures were really dark. I do not think that this camera takes good night shots. Also, some of the pictures were really red.
Once I had a couple pictures that I liked, I hooked the camera to my computer through the USB cable. The software was pretty easy to use. I was able to transfer at about 5-6 megabytes per second. I transfered about 100 pictures and it took no time at all.
This is my first digital camera, but I really like it so far. I probably have a lot to learn about it, but I am up for the challenge. Though from my experiences with the camera so far, I really think it rocks. I would recommend any amateur photographer, like myself, to purchase this camera.
