Good Points

Handy pocket size with integral lens protector.
Controls are logical and easily accessed.


Bad Points

The flash which pokes out. A bit of a fiddle to see the picture just taken.


General Comments

Having had previous experience of the Fuji Finepix zoom I find there are many advantages with this camera. It fits in the pocket much better and the controls are much more easily accessed. Much easier to get the correct flash setting, macro setting and self-timer.
Picture quality is excellent and colours very accurately reproduced.
I was warned of high battery consumption when I purchased it but to the contrary I have found the batteries last well. This may be due to the picture just taken not automatically being displayed.
The projecting flash worries me in that it could easily get knocked. So far no problems but it is always something you have to think about when closing down.
The zoom, optical and digital, is easy to control. Overall this is a great little unit.
