Strengths: It won the best point and shoot camera award. What more can you say about it?
Weaknesses: No adapter included
Summary: This camera is the best. The pictures are so realistic and life like. It has more than paid for itself in not going to the store to develop pictures. It has some difficulties in taking pictures at night without a tripod because it thinks it does not have enough light and the movement from your hands makes the pictures blurred without a flash, however, with a tripod this is quickly remedied. All in all, its a value that can't be beat :).

Strengths: Great pictures, easy to use.
Weaknesses: None.
Summary: Lemme just say this is an awesome camera. The problems other people have with it are their own fault. The lens cover takes TWO clicks to open, there is no design flaw. The software is not necessary, just plug the camera into your computer and it becomes the F drive. It can be used as a 128mb zip drive that you can take around to any computer, just plug it in. It can also take a beating.. dropped it a couple times onto hard tile floor, sound made me want to cry, but nothing broke! I loved this camera, too bad it got stolen.

Strengths: price, battery (two AAs), quality (made in Japan)
Weaknesses: none
Summary: I think the PC world review does not come faily. I have done a lot research before I settled this one. None of them has problem with image quality. On the contrast, they all praise the image quality that come from sites have reviewed hundreds digital cameras. If you check the availabilty in the market, you will know why. It is hard to get one this point. Let the supply and demand speak by itself. My point of view: 1) image quailty. 2) portability. What is good about a camera, if that is not easy to carry. 3) price. It it not worth to pay too much on electronic thing, since the price drops everyday. With the above criteria, I do not have choice.

Strengths: Excellent Value. Easy to use.
Weaknesses: Lens cover can be a problem until you get used to it.
2 Megs is only 2 megs.
Summary: By far the best value I could find in the 2 Meg category and under $300. Actually picked it up @ Overstock.com. Had previously owned a 1.3 Meg Fuji (left in S.F.) and this was the replacement which actully cost less than the original. Easy to use, decent software and editing.

Strengths: Beautiful picture quality, easy to use, battery life, macro capablility, compact size
Weaknesses: Weak flash indoors, red-eye
Summary: This camera fits my needs as grandparent very well. Prints are excellent using medium resolution format. Camera is almost 2 years old, have had no problems. Size is small enough to fit into a purse. Software is easy to use, and with USB connectivity its simple to connect.

 A very nice camera for point and shoot photography ... Strengths: Nice pictures in daylight, very good price, fast USB connection, movie capability, useful features, excellent customer support from Fuji
Weaknesses: Has great trouble taking pictures in the dark even with a flash
Summary: A very nice camera for point and shoot photography but cannot take pictures very well in anything other than daylight. I must say however that Fuji UK gave excellent support when my camera got damaged due to an accident and replaced it FOC.

 It locked up and the lens would not move so I sent ... Strengths: Size and rechargable batterys
Weaknesses: workmanship, customer service deceptions
Summary: It locked up and the lens would not move so I sent it back a month ago and two weeks ago they said I should have it in a week. Last week they said I should have it by Friday. Today is the following Monday and now they say I should have it by this Friday. Being without a camera for over a month is unacceptable to me. I will not buy another Fugi camera.

Strengths: Good picture in this price (especially outdoors), long battery life and the charger. Good instructions in manual.
Weaknesses: The software doesn't have many edit functions.
Summary: This is my first digital camera, and like others, I did research before buying it. Another candidate was Nikon coolpix 2500. In the end, I settled on this one for some reason. The rechargeable batteries and the charger (rapid charger) is very convenient and can be used for other devices. The extra (backup) batteries cost much less than a Li one, but the battery life is slightly less than the Li one's. This is a good deal for the price I paid. Its red-eye reduction works if you are not too close to the target (at least more than 1 meter). The USB connection is fine but is not auto-connected (need the drivers).

Strengths: image quality; price
Weaknesses: imaging under a weak light source is not very good but aceptable. CCD reading speed is somehow slow.
Summary: I did a good amount of research on digital cameras before I choose this model. Image quality is among the bests and is comparable to some 3.3MP caremas. Best price to quality ratio among all 2MP digital cameras.

Strengths: Great Pictures! 2.1 Megapixels, 3X Optical Zoom, Compact Size, Easy Basic Controls, Batteries, Charger and 16MB memory card all included in the box. Awsome Price!
Weaknesses: Video Mode has it weaknesses. No sound, Needs to be bright. Indoor videos at night look awful. Batteries may pop out if you hit the door the wrong way. Photo software included doesn't impress.
Summary: I did hours and hours on top of days and days of Internet research to find the best camera that my limited money could buy. No matter how many cameras I looked at, I kept on coming back to the Fuji Finepix 2600. Not only were the sample pictures I looked at great, but this camera boasts features that other cameras can't touch at this price. Once I started snapping my own pictures with this little gem, I knew for a fact that I made the right choice. All outdoor pics look superb with a nice 3X optical zoom to catch those distant shots. That's where this camera really shines. Even indoor pics with the flash come out very nice. I took a hundred pictures and didn't even get one blurry shot until I took one at night without the flash. At night or indoors you must use the flash for a good picture. Otherwise it will be blurry. But that's going to be the case with most any camera. I wouldn't recommend this camera if your main purpose is to shoot motion video. That is the one area of weakness this camera doesn't overcome. But for the most basic outdoor video (20 seconds or less) this camera can handle it with marginally acceptable results. The lack of quality video doesn't upset me since I just want the camera to take quality still shots (which it does!) This is not only an excellent camera for the beginner, but it is also a great second camera for the professional. Bought mine at buydig.com for $200. At that price it's a steal. Get one today. You'll love it!

Strengths: A variety of features for the price, outstanding image quality, movie and macro modes, lightweight and compact, a variety of exposure compensation features, effortless to use and dependable.
Weaknesses: Baffling DPOF function, weak flash and battery life, image editing software, a hard-to-see LCD viewfinder.
Summary: For a novice digital photographer, this is a remarkable camera for the money and is full of extra goodies that you wouldn't expect for the price. The camera's minimal weaknesses are easily solved. I purchased extra batteries to work around the short battery life. I try to stay within 10 feet of the subject and have experimented with the exposure compensation feature; this minimizes the weak flash. I picked up a decent $30.00 image editing program so the rudimentary FinePix Viewer isn't an issue. This is a superb value-packed camera and I highly recommend it to any beginner. You won't be sorry.

Strengths: Awesome pictures
Weaknesses: takes too long between pushing the button and actually taking the shot
Summary: This camera takes excellent scenery pictures. At night I can actually catch fireflys in motion... right down to the blur of their wings. Awesome pictures.

Strengths: Picture quality, price, ease of use, price, size, and ...did we mention the price!!
Weaknesses: Battery life is short; software is confusing, with poorly written instructions ( what else is new)
Summary: For the price, this is a GREAT CAMERA! The picture quality is better than most cameras costing 3 to 4 times as much.It is extremely easy to use, and best of all, it's pocket-sized!! Like most digital's, the LCD, which is hard to see in bright sunlit conditions, uses batteries quickly. We recommend carrying plenty of spares and we use the DC adapter whenever possible. We found the software to be confusing and the instructions to be no help at all, but with a little effort we were quickly transfering the pix to an editing program we prefer. Overall, this camera is one of the best values on the market today.
