Product Description
The high resolution of the sleekly designed FinePix Z100fd 8-Megapixel Digital Camera lets you crop and enlarge faces and parts of scenes, while still enjoying smooth tones and images. The amazing power of 5x optical zoom lets you use a wide angle to capture the entire scene or take great close-ups from far away. Innovative Face Detection instantly identifies faces in the scene and automatically adjusts focus and exposure to ensure beautiful people pictures. The FinePix Z100fd features a red-eye removal function that automatically detects and corrects unsightly red-eye reflections that often spoil flash photos of people. High sensitivity lets you use a fast shutter to freeze the action in sharp bright detail, while built-in CCD shift image stabilization automatically compensates for camera shake. Take vivid, clear and bright photos indoors, at night, or when shooting fast moving subjects. ISO1600 high sensitivity and versatile functions make it easy to capture more scenes with exceptional results. By automatically setting the ideal balance of flash output and sensitivity, Intelligent Flash captures both the subject and the background with natural brightness and in beautiful detail. Composing and viewing photos and slideshows on the spacious 2.7" LCD is a real pleasure. With a 230K-pixel canvas, it is easy to see photo detail and read the intuitive GUI menus.

5 out of 5 stars Best Compact Camera for an Awesome Price   November 21, 2008
Khan Lee (Dallas, TX)
Pros: I have been on the hunt for a Compact, Cheap, Brand Worthy, and Simple Camera in the price range of $100-$150. This opens a huge market of different models, makers, and options. I decided that I wanted an Ultra Compact, simple, has the basic specs such as Image Stabilization, where I can easily point and shoot. Whether if I am at the park, a restaurant, party, or walking to my car. I was excited about the price for the Camera and the cheap replacement batteries you can find on the "bay". I also read almost all the professional reviews that popped up on Goggle search, around 13 reviews...YIKES and gave it Good-Great reviews. I also read COUNTLESS reviews on other Cameras that were in the same price range, but didn't fit all my needs. It came will a fully charged battery so I got to mess around with it right away. I love the menu settings where you can easily change settings from AUTO to Auction mode, the big, crisp 2.7" screen, slick and stylish design, and the PRICE!

Cons: none really. Thought my finger was going to interfere with the lens, but haven't had that problem. I can see it happen but the issue is very minimal.

My follow up and still LOVING it
Pros: For people comparing this to a DSLR, or higher end, your argument has no merit. You have to take into factor specs, price, brand, and etc. For the price it packs in alot, any other ultracompact, non extending lens, you will have to spend nearly double or triple the amount. This was my first purchase from newegg and I am impressed. I will definitely buy from here again. After messing around with it, I also got to play around with the Fuji z20fd and I made the right decision by getting this one, Fuji z100fd. For you get the hang of the menu functions, it is quite simple. It has neat features such as Natural Mode where it takes 2 pictures with no flash and one with flash. It also has e-auction mode where it takes 4 pictures, so when you auction off stuff it is very simple and squeezes 4 pics in 1. Battery life is great. Video mode picks up sound well, and easy function. Has a neat illuminating Z after every picture taken. 2GB holds about 1000 pictures at the highest resolution.

Cons: Video mode is great in low light conditions but i advise to take videos in a well lit surrounding. I wish they had a better software but it does the usual when you sync it to the computer. Out of all the other brands software, it is the same. I find it easier to just pop out the SD card and put it in my computer.

Other Thoughts: This is truly a great product for an awesome price. I think that if you are looking to get something similar for a child or teenager, I recommend getting the Fuji z20fd. It looks more 'stylish' to the youth. It offers 3x zoom while the z100fd offers 5x Zoom. the Fuji z20fd has great reviews with 4.7/5 ratings across major review sites.

The lens being in the upper corner makes it real easy to get a finger in the picture. It takes some practice and it's something you have to be constantly aware of.

The slide cover is real easy to accidently open when you put it in your pocket or a camera case. You have to put it in in the direction that won't open the lens cover. I've run the battery down a couple times until I figured this out. Buy a spare battery.

I was very happy with the Fugi camera. It was exactly as I had seen in stores and as described by the online store. It came quickly and had all the necessary parts.
