Drop, point, and shoot

Pros Lightweight, great pictures, easy to use
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

I've always loved to take pictures, but I must admit that I am not a great photographer by any means. Forget about using an SLR camera with a bunch of buttons and settings. I want something that is simple to use and that makes just about any hack (well, myself to be specific), pretty much... Read full review »

fuji's great value

Pros value, quality
Cons can't think of any
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this Fuji because of the price it was on sale, only $90 after rebate. I like the style and shape and forget what people say it is too bulky and big, well it is not. Fuji made this a functional camera that offers a lot for such a low price even if you buy it for the full $140, as it usually... Read full review »

Pros great ergonomics, fully functional features
Cons No 200mm zoom available
Recommended it? Yes

I have long been the fully manual SLR user that would never expect any point and shoot product to capture depth, detail, lighting effects.

It wasn't until a family member was going on a European vacation that the need arose for a new camera. The quest began by checking for a total setup... Read full review »

This camera makes a great gift. I received this camera as a gift myself. It has many options with this camera. With the standard options of flash and timers, it also comes with an added feature of a remote if you decide you want to take self portraits or a lot of family pictures with this camera...

The fuji discovery 290 zoom date.
Well, I actually own the very similar model 270 zoom, but my sister owns the 290 and I have used it quite a bit and it is very similar. The camera has automatic focus and auto film winding and rewinding (very useful). It also has a macro function that isn't... Read full review »

Pros Red-eye reduction, remote control, quality picture taking
Cons So far, none encountered by me
Recommended it? Yes

I received this camera as a birthday gift last October. I am not a serious photographer by any stretch of the imagination, but do have a minor interest in the field of photography. I was quite pleased with my gift as I began using it. The camera is very easy to use, there are no tricks or hidden... Read full review »

Pros Quick, light, easy to load
Cons None that I've found so far
Recommended it? Yes

When I first received this camera as a "chosen" gift, I was wondering how well it would take pictures?

I was pleasantly surprised. My experiences usually run with the 35 mm cameras. And, I wanted a good point and click, not to much think camera to "keep track of my life" if you will.

I received the the Fuji 290 zoom date camera as a gift a year ago and absolutely love it! Since I have two young children and a home-based scrapbooking business, I take LOTS of pictures - about two rolls of film per month - and have never had a problem with pictures taken with this camera.
