Summary: finepix4900-
Review: A fine camera, easy to use after minimal reading.Most features are almost intuitive,or can be figured out by the icons on the body.The 4900 does not handle fast moving subjects to well,often missing the shot altogether.You have to pan with a closed shutter on the burst mode(5 shots) and hope you get the good one in the frame.Other than that it is a super camera,doing every thing very well.

Summary: FUJI 4900Z 4.3 MP DIGITAL CAM.
Review: A VERY VERSATILE CAMERA. GREAT FOR PICTURE TAKING AT WEDDINGS, GRADUATIONS AND OTHER SOCIAL GATHERINGS (AUTOFOCUS AND AUTOFLASH COMES IN HANDY). THE SOFTWARE SUPPLIED WITH IT LETS YOU ENHANCE YOUR PHOTOS THE WAY YOU PREFER. 8X10 PICTURES ARE SUITABLE FOR FRAMING. RESOLUTION CAN BE VARIED TO ADJUST THE NUMBER OF IMAGES PER SMARTMEDIA CARD. HOT SHOE FEATURE LETS YOU ADD EXTERNAL FLASH TO PRESERVE BATTERY POWER IF AN ELECTRIC OUTLET IS NOT CONVENIENT. I WOULD RECOMMEND PURCHASING AN ADDITIONAL BATTERY, JUST IN CASE. I WOULD LIKE FUJI DEVELOP AN ADAPTER FOR CARS. OUTDOOR IMAGES HAVE EXCELLENT EXPOSURE.

Summary: Picture Perfect All of the Time
Review: After much work looking for a digital camera, my best choice was the FinePix 4900 and what an excellent camera it is. I will never use a film camera again! The pictures and ease of use were just perfect. I am very happy with my choice. If you want a great digital, after looking through the FinePix 4900 your choice will become easy. Now I just have to find the right digital printer :)

Summary: Fuji + Epson
Review: As all of the previous reviewers have stated, the Fuji 4900 is an excellent camera.
Coupled with the Epson Stylus Photo 1280, I have made excellent 16" x 20" prints that look as good or better as film prints.
My Epson Stylus Photo 820 does an excellent job with 8" x 10" prints as well.
The Fuji 4900 is just an excellent camera EXCEPT for the poor battery life. I got tired of the constant need to recharge the NP-80s ( I have 6) so I bought a PowerBank MH-DPB180M battery pack from J&R Electronics and no longer have that problem.

Summary: Excellent pics, but battery doesn't last long.
Review: As far as picture quality and ease of use go the Fuji FinePix 4900 is by far one of the best digital cameras you can buy. Fuji probably discontinued this model though because the battery only lasts about 45 minutes to an hour if used with the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display). If you use the EVF (Electronic View Finder) the battery will last longer, the LCD just looks cooler is all. The software that comes with this camera is also very user-friendly and appears to be compatible with all OS's. Overall an excellent digital camera!!!!

Summary: Great camera for those who want/need perfect pictures
Review: Bought this camera about three weeks ago, and have zero problems with it. Pictures in automatic mode are perfect, and scene specific modes work well too. The picture quality is fantastic - my wife is using Nikon Coolpix 995,... and my Fuji takes better pictures. It also has an auto-timer, TV out, macro mode, the 6x optical zoom works great, and can film 160 sec films. This camera is lacking these following features which I would add in a perfect world - sound for films, no web cam capability, and comes with only a 16mb card. Buy yourself a 128mb smartmedia card and an extra battery and your set. Takes professional quality photos.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Could have been great
Review: I agree with almost all of the good things you have probably already read about this camera, so I won't repeat them. Still, there are a few areas where Fuji really failed. The most annoying is that you cannot buy an adapter for mounting filters to the lens. When you pay this much for a camera with a good lens, you should be able to protect it with an inexpensive clear filter. As it stands, you have to buy an expensive macro adapter you may not need in order to get the filter ring. This seems like a customer-unfriendly approach.

The autofocus is very slow in all but the most ideal conditions. You can't capture an expression on someone's face indoors (even in a brightly lit room) unless you go to manual focus. Also, battery life is too short, especially when the spares they sell are expensive and have a lower capacity than the original equipment.

I know this sounds very negative, but in fact the camera is very good in other ways. I have taken some very nice pictures with it. Just think carefully about what you want out of any digital camera before you buy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This camera's excellent
Review: I am in charge of a design team in a large corporation. We needed a digital camera due to the expensive development. Haven't seen or tried any camera better than this one. Its really fantastic. Its very easy to use, plus the quality is outstanding. One minor problem though - max aperture time is 2 seconds.
