FUJIFILM FinePix 2650 Digital Camera

Pros: Picture quality, ease of use, size, price.
Cons: Battery life, flash warm-up time, "shutter" speed.

I bought this camera on EBAY brand new and it turned out to be a good purchase. The quality is very good (max 1600x1200). "Shutter" speed is not bad, but for the price acceptable. The software that came with it is crap, I use the webshots (www.webshots.com) software, it's free and a lot easier to use and I can make the pictures into backgrounds. Battery life isn't bad if you pick up an AC adapter for downloading pictures, otherwise it's not very good. I've printed off a couple of the pictures and they turned out pretty good.

But over all the camera is a good buy. You won't be disappointed. If you are looking for a good price you will probably find one since there are always new higher pixel cameras out there.

Pros: Great value, easy to use
Cons: Picture quality could be better

My parents bought this for me for Christmas last year. It was easy for me to learn to use. It comes with software that is also pretty self-explanatory. The picture quality is pretty good. I've seen a lot better, but for a 2.0 it's good. There is an option to change the photo quality on the camera, too. I don't think this makes all that much of a difference.
I like the little video feature. The camera allows you to take 20 second videos. I do this and then make pictures from the video on my computer at home. Also, the self timer is really easy to figure out.
Since it takes AA batteries, they are used really fast. If you are going on a trip for a day I would bring a spare set of batteries. I've made the mistake of going somewhere all day and getting 10 pictures in because I didn't bring extra batteries.

Pros: Automatic shutoff, durable, decent quality pictures
Cons: Poor zoom, low memory on original card

The Finepix 2650 is an entry level camera in the Finepix line. I was given mine as Christmas gift, and have had little need to upgrade, The 2650 takes great pictures, especially if you adjust to the highest quality setting. The camera is durable, and easily compatible with mac and pc's. My only complaint is the lack of a decent zoom, which makes pictures at events tricky. The camera uses AA batteries (rather than a charger) which seem to last much longer than the charge in more expensive cameras.

Pros: Easy, small, some neat options
Cons: battery usage, shutter/flash speed

I received this as a gift. Overall I've been happy with it. This is the camera for beginners. It it really easy to use for basic pictures. There are options for picture quality; better quality equals less pictures on memory card. There is also a neat video option with two settings for quality; no sound. I had trouble with the software it came with and ended up downloading directly to my computer. The flash and shutter speeds are incredibly slow. It has adequate zoom capacity. This thing chews through batteries and ought to just come with the power cord, but that's extra. I haven't had to get an extra memory card, but it's also an expensive option. It's durable and compact, so that's handy. The picture quality is quite sharp. It has a neat zoom/crop capacity while viewing pictures, although you can't save the edited picture. Generally it's a good deal for the money and ease of use, but not the camera for someone who is really into options or capturing the perfect moment.

Pros: Go for any Fuji!! They take the best pics!!!
Cons: None

This digital camera is great!! It takes great pictures and you can't beat the price!! It's easy to use and just the right size!! I would invest in rechargeable batteries as it can really eat up the others!!

Dollar for dollar this camera is as good if not better than some of the more expensive cameras I've tried. It produces great photo's and I would recommend it to anyone that's looking for an affordable quality digital camera. Recommend the AC Adapter to save on battery life.

Great first digital camera, factor recharables into overall cost, consider a case also to carry extra batts

After i took 5,000 pics on my old digital, i was ready for a zoom lens...this one is great for the very low price of it. got about 400 pics on batteries that came with the camera. Other viewer said it didn't work with a HP Pavilion, hmmmm that's what i have runnig, and it works just fine.....love it.

If their software was compatible with all computers this would be a nice digital camera for the price. Not too expensive. I wouldn't discourage someone for trying it, it may work for thim, but if you have a HP Pavilion computer...buyer beware.

This camera says it has a 1/2 - 1/1000 of a second shutter speed implying that it's manually adjustable. NOT SO. I tried to take photos of my son doing karate and HE was in focus BUT his hands and feet that were moving came out blurry. VERY unhappy that Fuji did not explicity state whether or not the shutter speed was manually or automatically adjustable. If you want clear ACTION PHOTOS, DON'T buy this camera. Now I have to pay a 15% restocking fee at BEST BUY to return this crummy camera. >:(

Great camera for beginner and novice users. Excellent picture quality with its 2.1 megapixels, and with the new XD card (16 megs), there is less battery consumption, and faster data transfer. This camera also has a movie mode feature, where I can actually take 20 seconds of video. There are other camera brands out there that doesnt have the features of the 2650 and yet are more expensive. For the price this camera has everything to offer in a photographic device, and the quality is excellent. GREAT BUY!!!

I considered this camera after a friend of mine purchased a 2600, he is a technological retard and mastered it quite well. For the price, right out of the box it takes very good pictures. Don't drop it, its quite fragile in that respct, however fuji replaced it with a brand new unit. My 4 1/2 year old son can even take fairly good pics with it... so it can't be all bad. Get rechargable batteries.

I just love my Camera!! I went on Vacation and am amazed at the quality of the pics; would recommend to my friends. I purchased the rechargeable batteries which are very cost effective - Best Buy; great prices!!!!

Very nice, very smart and super neat digital camera. You can really play around with the features to maximize your picture quality. I very seldom have to edit my pics in an editor once I have downloaded them to my picture files. Fuji did a great job on a camera with affordability.

i shopped around for camera's for a long time and admitidly this camera was not my first choice but for the deal i got on it i decided to go for it. Like i said in the pro's and con's there are some thing's i'm not happy with but over all i'm pleased with this camera's performance. Suggestions: Fuji Finepix a303 - it's seems flawless for the price
