User Reviews for Fujifilm FINEPIX F10 DIG CAM 3X OPT ZOOM-6.3 MEGAPIXEL SUPER CCD

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: The ISO range is fantastic. The picture quality is great.

Weaknesses: No viewfinder!

Overall Evaluation: I bought this camera after a lot of research. My background includes 40 years of photography and I was looking for a camera that would be both versatile and small while still producing good pictures. This camera fits the bill entirely, except for the fact that I ignored the warnings about it not having a viewfinder.... a serious shortcoming... Indoors, the ability to take quality pictures without a flash makes the unit unbeatable... but if you are outdoors and use the old adage that the sun should be at your back, you simply cannot see the screen to frame your subject... the sun completely washes out the image and I have found no way to overcome it yet.... Being a tinkerer, I am considering adding my own viewfinder to the top or side of the camera to enhance its outdoor use. It is the only dissapointment and I will continue to use and enjoy the camera indoors...

Strengths: Nice low light performance. Battery lasts forever.

Weaknesses: A bit bulky for the pocket, uses dongle connection, poor video mode, and stuck with XD memory.

Overall Evaluation: Takes great pictures. I love the Natural Light mode. It allows me to take pictures without flash, so I don't have to worry about light reflecting back and drowning out all the details. Low light? No problem. Night time pictures come out pretty decent without using a tripod.It's a little bigger than most ultracompact. I hate connecting to the PC and charging the battery through a dongle. I'm disappointed by the grainy AVI video. I also don't like to be stuck using the prorietary XD memory when there is 150X SD memory available.

Strengths: Quick between shots. Quick shutter time. Great quality pictures

Weaknesses: Auto - tends to jump to Iso 800 or 1600 to often

Overall Evaluation: Great camera. It can take a little bit more playing around with to get the pictures to come out appropriately. Pictures are flawless at Iso 400 or below. At 800 and 1600, you can see noise, but they would still be great pictures if you printed them out. I have had no problems with the camera, and it has helped me catch a lot of pictures of my son growing up.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Many, excellent pictures under ordinary light conditions.

Weaknesses: Performs poorly in low light with flash situations. The small flash just doesn't have the power. I have an older Canon Power Shot S30 that performs much better.

Overall Evaluation: I was a little let down by the underexposures in low light w/flash. Without flash it performed better on several shots. I've gone to using a supplemental slave flash with it.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Fast start up, great for motion and low light pictures, long battery life, easy to use

Weaknesses: Choice of digital film is poor, use of card reader to delete pictures requires reformat of card for use in camera

Overall Evaluation: I originally bought this camera for the high ISO settings and for taking pictures in low light of parrots that don't sit still. The picture quality was very good and the colors were great, but I normally use a card reader to transfer the pictures to my computer, and then delete the pictures from the card with the reader. Each time the card had to be reformatted in the camera for re-use. After reading the manual more carefully, I found that deletion of the pictures must be done from the camera, and deletion of each picture, one at a time, must be done to avoid having to reformat. If you have a large XD card and take a number of pictures, this can be a real pain. Because of this, I am considering selling this camera and buying one that uses a more commonly use picture card.
