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.

Grainy, bad pictures - not worth it
I wanted a camera to replace my Fuji F460, which took great pictures, but the zoom buttons got stuck and wouldn't un-zoom without a lot of hassle.
I liked the features of this one, and that it was pink. I liked that it had more zoom than the F460.
I liked nothing about this camera, other than the pink. The menu is so awkward - when you change a menu setting, it dumps you right back to the view finder, completely out of the menu. Then you have to go back into the menu, scroll scroll scroll to the set up, navigate to another option you want to change, save and get dumped again completely out of the menu setup. Wash, rinse, repeat.
I could have lived with that if it took great pictures. It didn't. The pictures SUCKED. Maybe if you looked at it from far away, it looked ok. But zoom in to the full size, and the pictures are completely grainy. I had it on the highest quality setting, I tried using auto, manual, etc - nothing helped. I took identical pictures with this one and my F460, and there was just no comparison. The F460 were clear and sharp, and this one were all muddled and grainy.
I'm returning it. Don't waste your money unless you don't have great eyesight. |  | Reviewed on 2008-07-03
DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT
If you want a simple point and shoot camera, this is not the camera for you. The clarity on the autofocus sucks! You can purchase a different point-and shoot camera that takes clear quality photos at the same price for which this camera sells. | | Reviewed on 2008-06-05
I love this camera!!
I bought this camera about a month ago and my friend liked it so much she bought it herself. I even lie it better than my Dad's similar sony camera. It has lots of different modes even some of them are hard to access.
The face detection works really well and the 5x zoom is a big plus. It also has 8.1 mega pixels so that picture quality is good.

Superstyle, acceptable substance
Image quality is just as important to me as the convenience of a p&s, so when my latest Canon broke due to a lens that no longer retracted, I decided to try Fuji due to the rave reviews I've read about its imaging technology.
Putting it through the paces, pictures came out sharp and natural in outdoor conditions, but I was somewhat disappointed with the noise and blurring that still occurred in lower light conditions despite the image stabilisation. It's a similar fault in my old SD800IS, which I guess is a limitation of ultra-compact cameras generally. The difference in image quality between the Fuji and Canon was so small, that I think if you've decided to get a p&s then the Fuji is just as acceptable as any Canon in the same range. This is where the other features come into importance.
Pros:
- Non-retracting lens. This will not break or get stuck like the retracting lens that seems to afflict the Canon SD series so often. Coupled with Fuji's better customer service and 3yr standard warranty, I felt more comfortable about shelling out $$ for a Fuji than for a Canon.
- Sexy design. I chose the copper-tone, and it's unbelievable how beautiful it is - the Z100fd looks more like a Mont Blanc cigarette box than a camera. It truly fits in a pocket and is worthy of a home in a Louis Vuitton bag. Everything from the diagonally sliding lens to the slick metal and curved finishes will turn heads.
- Click-wheel is easy to use
- Auction mode. This allows the arrangement of 3 or 4 separate pics into one photo
- Takes SD cards
- Better photo viewing and management software than Canon SD
Cons:
- Frustrating manual. I am still trying to figure out how to change the resolution and how to download pics from the different folders in the camera
- Grainy, noisy pics in lower light. I would be happy with a 7MP or even 6MP camera if it means an improved imaging sensor.
- Slippery feel
- Lens in top corner meant the finger sometimes gets in the way
- Battery charger bulkier than Canon SD. Battery life seemed a little short
Overall - unbeatable looks, does everything you hope in a p&s, acceptable but obviously not SLR quality. | | Reviewed on 2008-03-25
Awesome camera!!
This is a great camera, I love the small compact frame and I carry it with me in my purse all of the time. The video is great, but you have to go through the menus to put it in video mode, they should have made a button for video. Still, a great camera and much clearer pics than the $400 Canon I had before! | |
