Great little camera,
It has a very cool feature: the face recognition, it works very nicely. I have been toying with it just for fun and the camera recognizes most of the faces as long as they are fully facing the camera or not looking away more than 50% to the sides. It’s a very cool feature and it does it’s best job in focusing and color compensating to make the faces look better.
The camera is very slim and fits nicely in any of my pockets. To turn it on you just slide the cover to the side and are ready to shoot. Plenty of manual settings and some buttons to get to specific functions.
With a 2Gb memory card I get almost 30min of video at VGA resolution, more than enought to get the funny little videos and show panoramic views of a place.
Another cool feature is the “normal & flash” option, which takes one picture with ambient light and immediately another with flash, so you can be sure to get a good picture at least.
I’m very happy with this camera.
Only low grade I can give is the lack of an optical viewfinder, I find that the large LCD display is not very useful on harsh daylight (as I’m used to reflex cameras) and I don’t like to hold the camera so far away from my body because of the instability that causes. It would be nicer to hold the camera against my face to provide support.

Additions after reading the above reviews:
All true complaints of the reviewers, but there are some solutions.
Set the auto switch off to 2 minutes, even if the camera is turned on in your pocket (it does when you slide it into the pocket due to the direction of the opening motion).
Battery, at my pace, the battery won’t last a full day, so I bought a backup battery, very cheap and convenient.
Finger blocking the lens, is just a case of learning how to hold the camera. At first is annoying but is no big deal after a few days.
Quality of lens, hey if you want professional quality, this is not the camera, this is an point and shoot camera, convenient to carry at all times, just to grab the photo opportunity and avoid blaming yourself the rest of your life for not getting “that shot” on time.

|Fujifilm Finepix Z5fd 6.3MP … one decent camera,
This is a decent camera. Like most compact cameras is suffers a bit in low light but it’s still better than any I tested in the Sony line. Every time I pick the camera up, I’m blown away by how light it is. It almost doesn’t feel like I’m holding anything. The photographic power of the cam is pretty good… to the point that I gave up the 8mp Sony T20 for this 6mp. This cam doesn’t take pics as fast as the Sony but it is still unlikely that you will miss a shot. This camera isn’t slow, the Sony is fast. I always say go to a store and try before you buy as I did and I can say I’m pretty satisfied with this buy.
