Customer Reviews:

My favorite of all my digital cameras [Posted on 2006-03-27]
I"m surprised at some of the one and two star ratings that I've read here about this camera.

Even though I've got a great SLR Canon Rebel XT, plus four other fine point and shoot digital cameras, the Fuji 700 is my preferred camera when I find that the Canon XT a bit bulky for certain times.

One of the reasons I love it is that I prefer not to use the flash when I'm shooting indoors, and the F700 has an ISO 1600 which has allowed me to get some super great indoor shots.

I also love the "meter" which is quite easy to see before I take the shot, thus, giving me GO to take a properly exposed shot.

Now, I haven't read ALL the reviews here, and I'm sure most of the bad reviews are legitimate. The only problem I've ever had was that it kept "shutting down" on me, so I sent it back, and I now have not longer that problem.

And, I forgot to mention that it does not suffer from the dreaded "Shutter lag" syndrome that so many point and shoot cameras do....

So, the great indoor with no flash shots, the high ISO, and the "fast shot to shot"
was enough to make this beauty my favorite.

And, just recently I purchased the Fuji F10, which I kept for a few days, and then returned because it was not even close to the F700.

That purchase-return only endeared me closer to the F700.
And, if the F700 ever dies on me, my only problem would be trying to purchase another one, and they've been "discontinued"....

And, I do love my Canon Rebel XT, but I've found that since the F700 allows me to accomplish all I really want with it, that I'm having second thoughts about wether I really need the Canon XT.

No, I won't sell the Canon, but the F700 has surpassed everything that I had anticipated....

great images but seriously flawed unit (note service advisory from fuji) [Posted on 2006-06-02]
I have loved, loved, loved this camera since I first used a borrowed unit nearly 2 years ago. I bought my own about 16 months ago and have had nothing but joy until about a week ago, when it suddenly began to malfunction. When I went looking for information, I found many people reported the same issue: a distorted, multi-color image appearing in both the large display and on the image.

I very sadly started shopping for another camera in the Finepix F series when I came across a Fuji Service Advisory for this very problem. If you have this camera and have experienced this trouble, it is worth your time to read the advisory and have your camera repaired for no charge, even if it is out of original warranty

[...]

Other than this very serious malfunction, I have been very happy with this model and am especially fond of the 30fps video/audio feature. And it's hard to beat the excellent, high quality still images in such a small and simple package.

Collecting Dust [Posted on 2006-10-18]
What a piece of junk! I got this camera from another retailer two years ago. The first year and a half it worked great. The pictures were clear and sharp, the colors bright. It was a good web cam also.

Then one day it stopped working outdoors. The pictures are nothing but white. Not even the photo editing software can get rid of the whiteness. I thought it was just me but a little research has yielded hundreds of orther horror stories about this camera and Fuji's unwillingness to fix the problem..

Save your money.

Great deal, good product [Posted on 2008-03-27]
This is a great deal for the cost, top of the line in 2005.
Just like new, exc no docking station. Does come with cord
& computer line. Limited memory but great photo quality
& autofocus.

Good camera. [Posted on 2008-04-20]
Bought this to replace my broken one (dropped it one too many times). Well worth the price (refurbished). Going on vacation to St. Thomas USVI and it is going in the water with me in it's UW Housing. Had the housing from my first F700 and didn't feel like forking over another 250 bucks for a housing for my newer Canon A540. Now I have two cameras, one for around town and one for the beach. Works for me!
Came in in about a week and looks new. Came with the carger and USB cable; but not the cradle or AV cable like my first one. I still have them though. So it wasn't a big deal.
