  Duration of ownership: 3 Months

  Strengths: It worked adequately for two weeks

  Weaknesses: It stopped focusing after 2 weeks. Fujifilm have taken 2 months and not decided whether to fix or replace it. I have an empty wallet and no camera. It cost me $3.50 per photo.

  Overall Evaluation: Lousy after-sales service.

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Small, light, good menu, good colors in well-lit conditions.

  Weaknesses: Broke down after two weeks of moderate use (stopped focusing). Fujifilm still haven't replaced or fixed it after 10 weeks of waiting and a couple of requests for a progress report.

  Overall Evaluation: Very disappointing. I have an empty wallet and no camera. Photos under low-light conditions were very grainy and with poor color reproduction - the Fujifilm marketing overstates this as a strength of the camera. Flash charging was awkwardly slow. My biggest grumble is that I have to go to web pages to even remember what my camera looked like. I got half-way through an overseas holiday when it died so I couldn't take photos for half the trip. Now I have another overseas trip coming and it looks like I either go with no camera or buy a new one... which will NOT be from Fujifilm.
