5.0 out of 5 stars First Day Impressions - Fantastic Little Camera, April 6, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Fujifilm FinePix F550EXR 16 MP CMOS Digital Camera with Fujinon 15x Super Wide Angle Zoom Lens and GPS Geo-Tagging Function (Electronics)
I chose this camera because I wanted to step up from my old Panasonic TZ5. I've had several digital cameras over the years, all of them point-and-shoot with CCD sensors. I've not used DSLRs much at all, so my perspective is different from those with high-end cameras for whom this is their portable camera. This camera lives up to my expectations, which are probably quite different from some of the other reviewers.

For my first day, I kept the camera on the EXR setting and let it make my decisions, it did a very good job of figuring out what to do in the different situations, but as I go on it will be necessary to familiarize myself with the menus and manual shooting options in order to get the results I want. I'm giving the camera 5 stars because the images I got with only a cursory glance at the manual were quite lovely, and I fully expect to be able to improve on them as I learn more about the wide variety of settings. Another reason this camera gets all 5 of the stars... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Early Impressions from Day One - Review FinePix F550EXR, April 5, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Fujifilm FinePix F550EXR 16 MP CMOS Digital Camera with Fujinon 15x Super Wide Angle Zoom Lens and GPS Geo-Tagging Function (Electronics)
I couldn't wait to use this camera for the first time. For background, I've owned digital cameras dating back to the Apple Quicktake 150 (1995) and many in-between (Olympus, Toshiba, Canon, Nikon). Current arsenal consists of a Canon Digital Rebel XT with several lenses and a Nikon CoolPix S200. I got the FinePix 550EXR with the intent of having a portable point-shoot camera for situations where the Canon SLR isn't practical and like the option of GPS tagging. I've been disappointed with the autofocus accuracy and weak flash of the Nikon Coolpix 200, hence this purchase.

Controls: 3.5
Controls are pretty straightforward. The round selector has the usual features (flash on, menu access, self timer, etc.) and also a nice jog shuttle wheel (command dial) that will scroll through menus and settings as well. The camera shipped with the GPS off. LCD image quality is very good (bright, clear). I miss the optical viewfinder of my SLR, but those are very rare these days... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome camera!, April 9, 2011

This review is from: Fujifilm FinePix F550EXR 16 MP CMOS Digital Camera with Fujinon 15x Super Wide Angle Zoom Lens and GPS Geo-Tagging Function (Electronics)
This is an excellent little camera! Over the last 10 years I have owned 2 P&S cameras (one Canon, one Olympus), and 2 DSLRs. I currently use a Canon T2i for most of my shooting. But I have missed a lot of shots over the last couple of years simply because I didn't have a camera with me, usually because, for one reason or another, it just wasn't appropriate or feasible to bring the DSLR. So with the current crop of new small cameras coming out this Spring, I decided to remedy that situation. I quickly narrowed the field to 3: this camera, the Canon SX230HS, and the Panasonic ZS10. I would say my main concerns were: small size (easily pocketable), good image quality, wide-angle lens, manual controls, lots of neat features (like face detection/recognition, ae bracketing, panorama, etc), good low-light capability, and HD video capability. All three of these cameras provide those features to a varying extent, but it really came down to image quality. I looked for whatever reviews I could... Read more
