Good Points

Great Lens.
Little shutter lag.
Good sharp images.
Sharp macro.
Well built.
Suport for Compact flash, Microdrive and Smart media.


Bad Points

Manual focus is a joke!
Auto focus slow, useless at low light levels.
Slow startup time.
Very slow RAW write times.


General Comments

The Fuji Finepix S602 is a super little camera that is capable of taking great shots in most situations. Focus is slow but OK in good light conditions, but fails to get a lock in low light, low contrast situations. Shutter lag is not instantanious but pretty quick, but the startup time is around 3 seconds.
Using the camera in it's optimal mode ie 3.1 meg fine and 160 iso the results are still up with some of the cameras of simular resolution today.
Writing RAW files is a waste of space and takes up to 50 seconds on a slow CF card!
