Summary: Great Camera! Great Price!
Review: I went to several big name (and supposedly reasonably priced) electronics stores and found this camera priced...higher. I got it here for almost [a lot] less than the big name places. Some stores didn't have this model at all. I love this camera! Easy to use (my 11 year old can use it without help), it's compact and produces FABULOUS pictures. I didn't care for all the extra software that got loaded onto my computer by the FinePix software program CD. It doesn't even give you a choice as to whether you want all that extra stuff. We just loaded it, then deleted what we didn't want. Other than that little inconvenience, it's a great camera.

Summary: Takes great picture!
Review: I love this camera. It's not another 2MP digital camera. It takes amazingly great picture with great color. This is my first digital camera, and I compared mine with my friends' camera, and this is definitely the best for the money.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Awesome little camera
Review: I have had this camera for about 24 hours, so I hope I am not jumping the gun. I have put it through all the tests, and this is a very remarkable camera. Everything is easy to use, pictures are crisp, camera is nice and lightweight, USB connection was a snap (w/XP) and EXTREMELY fast compared to my last digital camera (a very nice surprise). The reviewer from Arizona was doing something wrong, because I live in AZ as well, and as soon as I read her review I brought the camera out in the sun and the pictures came out awesome.

The reason the camera lost one star is because everything they say about low light or night photos is true. Its the cameras only downfall. The LCD and the viewfinder become useless. More than likely, the autofocus won't work either. If it wasn't for that, this camera would have gotten a 5 star rating.

Summary: I have to vote thumbs down....
Review: This camera has some wonderful features, especially for the price. However, the big down fall is Fuji failed to incorporate an optical viewfinder. This makes it nearly impossible in very bright conditions (like the Arizona sun) and dark conditions (any indoor activity with low lighting) to see what you are shooting. You can point and re-take as many times as you need, but I missed too many shots this way. This was my third digital camera, and I returned it because although the prints were beautiful and clear, and I loved the zoom, it wasn't worth sacrificing my compositions for. I played with all the controls to try and adjust, but the only solution was either a tripod or bring your own lighting. I exchanged it for a Canon and am very pleased with it. It has less features and zoom, but at least I can set my picture up the way I want it, the first time. I do miss the XP picture card though- that was extremely fast download and shutter time.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: All my friends envy me
Review: All I can say is that I love this little camera. All of my friends envy that I can make simply excellent pictures with it. Excellent optics. Especially valuable is the 6x zoom feature. The only thing that I miss is the ability to see objects in my camera when its dark (when you take a shot in a drak room you do not really see what you will picture). But it is manageable.

Summary: Great camera!
Review: This is my 2nd digital camera. My first was the ephoto 780c by AGFA. No zoom, with just under 1mp, took decent pictures for a no frills camera. After dropping it one too many times, it was time to get a new camera. After reading a ton of reviews, I decided on Fuji's 2800.
When I first picked it up I thought it felt too light, almost toy like. This is no toy! Going from under 1mp to 2mp is a huge jump. The pictures are crisp, clear and with vibrant colors.
My only complaints are,1) the view finder/lcd is usless in low light. This makes taking pictures indoors or at night pretty much a guessing game. Very surprising coming from a camera of this caliber.And 2)you cannot preview the picture you just took and disgard it if you want before going on to the next picture. You'll have to change the setting, look for the picture and then delete it. If you aren't paying attention, you could erase the everything! Who wants to sift though a bunch of BAD pictures if you can get rid of them from the get go?!
Other than those 2 things, this camera rocks!

Summary: Works for me!!
Review: This camera was my first digital camera purchase. My decision was between this Fuji and a Kodak that has received good reviews. I'm glad I went with the Fuji. I love the way this camera fits in your hand. I haven't had any of the problems with the lens cap that other reviewers have mentioned. It's a little quirky in low light coniditions, but I think almost all digital cameras are. I also really like the video feature - and I actually use it! Great camera.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Nice camera for just about anything.
Review: I did a lot of research before making this purchase and read a lot of reviews. The most important feature in my book was the 6X optical zoom. The auto focus is right on and the pre-focus option, (holding the shutter button down halfway) is a nice touch. One of my friends was so impressed with mine that he ordered one yesterday, (and Amazon still has the best price). I must say that although the camera is everything I hoped it would be there are a couple minor details that can be a little bothersome.

I find that it is difficult to take action shots while using the zoom. Much like a Single Lens Reflex camera, when the shutter is released the viewfinder goes black (something I hadn't considered) so it is nearly impossible to track a moving target. With some practice however I found that with good lighting the photos are crisp and clear. As long as the camera is kept still, it performs well in low light conditions and the flash is more than adequate. I don't care for the software but that is just my opinion.

I suggest that you buy a 128 MB card and some high capacity Nickel Metal Hydride batteries and charger. I used this camera every last week and I haven't changed them yet. I can't wait to take it on a hike this spring.
By far my biggest problem with the 2800 is that I don't get enough time with it since everyone else wants to use it ;)

Anyone who wants an easy to use camera that takes excellent photographs should consider this one first.

Summary: super buy!!
Review: This is a super camera, so easy to use. From out of the box to snapping pictures was a matter of minutes. Install the software FIRST as instructed, then quickly plug in the USB cord, it will open the images, load them to a website, email them or your can send them to your harddrive. It opens a fold in My Pictures for you. You just check which pictures you want to keep and which you want to get rid of. You have the option of keeping the images on the smart card or you can erase them.

So from box to shooting a few minutes, about 5 to install and reboot. Second to plug in to the computer and instant pictures of SUPER quality. I could not believe how sharp the images were.

You are able to chose to look threw the lens to set it up as with regular SLR. Or you can compose by looking at the LCD image. Once the image is snapped it shows you a copy on the LCD viewer so you can see the shot. It has 6 times zoom and auto flash. Even has microphone setting and you can take small movies with and play them in quick time.

Do recommend adding the 125MB smart card and you can snap till your hearts content!

This is just amazing for this price!

Summary: love this camera!
Review: I've been putting off buying digital. I liked my old trusty 35mm. In December I bought the FinePix 2800 from Amazon. It is great indoors and out, snow/water/pets/people - it takes great pictures. DO buy the rechargeable batteries and a back up set They last much longer than the regular batteries, and the power cord for downloading is a necessity. It was easy to learn how to operate it. There is a slight difference in taking a picture of a moving object but I got the knack of it after a few photos.
