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.

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.

Strengths: good night shooting mode
Weaknesses:flashlight is too weak
Overall Evaluation: I had a fuji finepix F20 camera for myself. I was very glad it works very well with night shooting. Now I'm getting this for my girlfriend. she likes it a lot too. But we just felt the flashlight sometimes is too weak at dark.

Strengths: 12 MegaPixel, capable for both SD and XD cards.
Weaknesses:LCD, not wide-angle lens.
Overall Evaluation: This camera is used as the 2nd camera beside my DSLR. I haven't tried taking any pictures in a low-light condition because that is my DSLR's job. Lack of view finder is not my problem because I don't use it anyway. When you use a view finder, you won't know the settings of camera (shutter speed, aperture, ISO) which are displayed on the LCD screen only. However, the LCD seems to be the only (small) issue I have with this camera. Even the brightness is set to the highest level, I barely see anything on the screen when taking a picture on a shiny day.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Low light shots are decentHuge LCDUses both xD and SD
Weaknesses:No viewfinder
Overall Evaluation: I think this a great camera for the price. It has a nice feature that lets you take both a flash and natural light sight in succession. and shows the results of both side by side. The low light shots are pretty good. I was worried because some reviews praised it and other fault it it's ISO performance. However it seemed like the the bad reviews were not factoring in mega-pixel differences in their comparison with other cameras. After using it I'd have to say the good reviews were accurate. I've taken several ISO 800 pictures that turned out much better than the compacts I've used in the past.
Review:
Fujifilm FinePix F50fd Compact Camera
Though it looks dull next to some of the flashier models we tested, this compact camera has all the latest features and takes great shots.
Portly and plain are not the most compelling adjectives for a point-and-shoot digital camera, but the $300 Fujifilm FinePix F50fd has very high resolution, offers tons of features, and performed quite well in our tests. It may look dull, but the looks are only shell-deep.
