    The Fujifilm Finepix Z100fd is a surprisingly good point-and-shoot digital camera. It's stylish enough to appeal to the fashion-conscious, built well enough to survive a few bumps and scrapes, and offers enough features to appeal to both beginners and more experienced photographers alike. The 5x zoom lens in particular sets the Z100fd apart from the vast majority of affordable compacts, which usually offer a bog-standard 3x zoom. Admittedly the Z100fd's lens isn't... Read more

    The Z100fd houses a 5x optical zoom that ranges from 36-180mm and an 8Mp sensor which gives plenty of scope for enlargements, though it would have been nice to see a slightly wider zoom to get more into the frame. ISO runs from a very low 64 to 1600, while there is also a CCD-shift image stabilisation system with two modes – continuous or shooting only. There’s also Face Detection (hence the fd), a single card slot that’ll  accept either an xD-Picture card or... Read more

    It's never a very nice job for a reviewer to be negative about a digital camera that someone somewhere has spent a lot of time developing and designing. However, this is one little compact that we fell will find few takers among serious photographers - even if it's just for keeping in the glovebox... Read more

    The Fujifilm FinePix Z100fd is an excellent point-and-shoot. Experienced photographers might be disappointed by the paucity of manual controls, but a first-class face detection system, capable automatic settings and a large screen make the Z100fd good value for money -- and it looks great Read more

  1. Slow but charming

    This is a mixed bag. I'm a fan of Fuji cameras and I sort of love it and sort of hate it too. The bad. It's slow. So tediously slow. I've got an F20fd too and that's a racehorse compared to it. It takes forever to wake up when you switch it on (I count to 4 before it's awake). The menus take forever to scroll through and then it forgets your settings as soon as you switch it off or view a photo you've just taken. Imagine you've taken a macro of a flower and then a deer...

  2. Not the easiest to use

    There are much better cameras out there for $200 - this one is not user-friendly in terms of navigating through pictures or menus. The battery doesn't last too long because you have to have the camera turned on while you upload pictures to your computer (if you don't use a cardreader and just use the USB cord), and the battery DOES NOT CHARGE while you have it hooked up to your computer. The only way to charge the battery is to take it out of the camera and put it into... Read more

    This review is from: Fujifilm FinePix Z100fd Digital Camera - Shell Pink (8.0MP, 5x Optical Zoom) 2.7 inch LCD (Electronics) What an excellent little camera both on land and underwater (with the waterproof housing). Video's are better underwater than stills but that could just be me! Read more

    This camera is GREAT. I got a red version and its very sleek and stylish. The screen size is very generous for a compact camera, and with face detection it is great value for money. Basically just what I need for taking pics of my friends and taking it on holiday. I would recommend this to someone who wants to take photos of friends or take on holiday. The only disapointing thing was the zoom, its good because its optical but it doesnt go very far. Apart from that its... Read more
