Fuji FinePix E550 6.3-Megapixel Digital Camera - This Super CCD Is Not So Super

by dkozin dkozin is a Lead on Epinions in Electronics, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, Oct 11 '05
Pros: Price, features, manual controls, image quality, wide angle, batteries, resolution, battery life, fast
Cons: Uses expensive xD cards, poorly-implemented manual focus, soft corners at telephoto
After trying out the 5 .2-Megapixel Fuji FinePix E510, I decided to check out the F uji FinePix E550 that features a 6.3-Megapixel Super CCD HR and can provide files of up to ...

Great Little Cam If You Don't Expect Miracles

by AtlantaGreg Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Feb 08 '05
Pros: Good handling, nice colors, good image quality at prints up to 8x10.
Cons: A little plasticy here and there. Not a "true" 12 megapixel camera.
WHAT YOU GET The Fuji E550 is a mid-range model designed in film camera style. It fits neatly into your hand, and for now less than $350.00 (in some areas), you get a multi-megapixel camera with a 2 inch color LCD screen, and a 4X optical zoom ...

Great compact camera with lot of features and only minor drawbacks

by dsantachiara , Aug 19 '05
Pros: Extremely useful zoom range and video Low shutter lag good handgrip Excellent value for money
Cons: Very small viewfinder LCD not so good in bright light
I am an owner of 35mm Canon camera with lot of lenses (from 20 f2,8 to 80-200 f2,8). I have purchased this camera before a trip to Greece as I needed a very small and light camera that I could put into a pocket or pouch. Bringing 2 Kg of photo equipment ...

PERFECT for an average mom! Good 1st digital cam.

by lillyzackmom , Mar 23 '06
Pros: EASY to use if you want a basic first digital camera, reasonable price.
Cons: Weak flash.... ????
I am by no means a camera expert. To say my knowledge (or interest for that matter) is above average would be highly generous. I want a camera that is basically a point-and-shoot. If it has the potential to do more - that's great, but whatever. ...

Finepix E550 TOTALLY ROCKS!!!

by ezor , Jun 02 '05
Pros: Small, HIGH RES, great features, film like functions
Cons: None so far....
I've been a 'still shooter' for over 20 years (see website: "http://www.fatcatmedia.biz"). Most of it as a 35mm & 2 1/4 film based photographer in the motion picture industry. Was looking for a great little digi cam, with film styled controls. Read many ...

Fuji E550 is awesome

by keithcws , Jul 05 '05
Pros: handling, high resolution, fast auto focus, shutter lag is nonexistent, small size, takes beautiful photos
Cons: no AF illuminator
The Fuji E550 is one of the best digital cameras that I have used, and it is an excellent value costing only around $300. in fact, it is so good that my girlfriend, mom, and myself all own one. I have previously used other digital cameras made by Olympus ...

Finally, the 35mm gap has been filled on a budget.

by rouelibre , Apr 03 '05
Pros: 35mm feel, 35mm size, near 35mm quality, great movie
Cons: No flash connector nor hotshoe, small flimsy zoom control
This is it. A 35mm like, in size and shape, camera with outstanding image quality. I had already reviewed the Casio QV-R62 and in my mind, this is still the very best value around. The E550 was just too expensive for its few extra offerings. But, ...

Full featured, High quality and High Res.

by craigmri , Dec 18 '04
Pros: SPEED! 6.3 mega Pixels, 4X optical lens, battery life tons of features.
Cons: XD memory pricey, cheezy unteathered port cover on side of camera.
Having owned several 3 and 5 mega pixel cameras over the last few years I got so tired of compromising on qualities and even more fatigued by missing the "perfect" picture. I recently tried a Vivitar 6.3 Mega pixel and initially I was excited by it ...

A Major Disappointment or a Lemon?

by emerycrush , Feb 13 '06
Pros: 6 megapixels, 4x optical zoom
Cons: PHOTO QUALITY!!, not user-friendly, manual flash
I owned the Fuji Finepix E550 for just over one year and bought it after reading all of the positive reviews on this website and others. Also, Consumer Reports Magazine has consistently rated this camera well. The picture quality and brightness of ...

Love this camera! Hardly any cons for the price

by gafnc , Dec 04 '04
Pros: easy to understand menu - 2" LCD - std AA batteries.
Cons: No tilt/swivel LCD - flash construction bit flimsy - macro has limit of 3"
There's plenty of features available in this camera for the price. I got mine for around $300 after considerable research and it was either this or the canon S1 IS which is a 3mp camera. Zoom: Thought it would be safer to go with a higher mp camera ...

Great camera for the price!

by jd580 , Dec 24 '05
Pros: Great photo quality, fast start-up time, large 2 inch LCD screen
Cons: Poor focus in very dark situations, pop-up flash is somewhat annoying at times.
I have had the Fujifilm Finepix E550 for about a year now and this is the best camera I have ever owned! Before I owned this camera, I owned a cheaper 2 megapixel camera. My old camera was not giving me the ability to crop and print large pictures. ...

Good choice

by andyhightower , Oct 06 '05
Pros: Clarity of 6 mp is stunning, more than qualified for casual point-and-shoot parents
Cons: Flash is a little weak and slow
I am very amateur, but wanted to take high quality photos of the kids. I first tried a Sony 4mp camera for the same money, going with that brand name reputation and a friend's good experience. I thought all the photos came out very fuzzy. Tinkered ...

$280 down the drain.

by tholstar , Dec 05 '05
Pros: Great pics on a tripod and really fast startup time.
Cons: Nearly every hand-held picture taken was blurry.
After 5 years with my Sony DSC-70, I figured it was time to finally upgrade. I could even get a low or mid tier camera that would have more megapixels and features than my old Sony, so it seemed like a no lose situation. Just to be on the safe side, I ...

Handy carry-around camera

by quinbus , Nov 13 '04
Pros: Fast startup, low shutter lag, good image quality, ISO 800, cheap but robust.
Cons: Featured as a snapshot cam, consequently some annoyances. 6mp JPEGS overcompressed.
Took my Canon S50 to the 8/29 rally in NYC and was frustrated by its shutter lag. Since then I've tried several P&S cams, looking for one that's faster to use and that has image quality as good as the S50's. The E550 pretty much fills that bill, though ...

Fantastic Still Cam w/Video & Sound

by cjayjr , Jun 17 '05
Pros: Pros: Price, features, battery life, image quality, video, light weight
Cons: Cons: xD card doesn't fit my PC card slot – use cable, poor battery indicator
I moved from a Toshiba PDR-4300 Digital Camera to the Fuji FinePix E550 after reading a couple of reviews and wanting to get rid of the heavy and large Toshiba that has video but no sound. The E550 with sound video is just what I was looking for in a ...
