Fuji's FinePix S3100 is one of the best cameras out there, and is a very hot seller. The camera can take great pictures that are still of high quality even when enlarged, though only when operated correctly. Though, this is not a camera that is usable by anyone. This camera is not recommended for beginners, and is strongly recommended for advanced photographers. The camera must be on for about three seconds (which is referred to as warm-up), with the memory card inside, before one can take see the object they want to photograph. As users inside a larger (higher memory) card, the problem only becomes worse. The camera works similarly as many of the very expensive SLR cameras. What you view through the camera is actually coming through the lens, but actually on a screen on the inside. Many people with glasses even claim that this useful, and makes looking through the camera much easier. You can also click a button on the camera and instead have the image shown on the 1.5" LCD screen.

Many cameras that have automatic exposure as well as focus require the user to click the shutter button down somewhat and then wait before clicking to take the photo. If they do so, the picture taken will usually be of low quality (blurry usually). On another note, the image on the LCD tends to freeze while the camera is being adjusted. Many users find this a problem because what they wanted to take a picture of originally may not be in the same position as it was when they wanted to take the picture. It is only a few seconds "lag", but to users makes a world of difference. Due to this, it is not the best camera for those taking action shots. The auto-focus, although is never perfect, is not the best on this camera. Users have claimed that many photos turn out blurry despite claiming to have auto-focus. This SLR camera comes with a very detailed manual, and if one follows it properly, they can likely overcome many of the problems mentioned here.

It is not an extremely small camera, thus it is not good for someone who wants something to be able to slide into their pocket. Nonetheless, it is easy to carry around, and is not heavy. The camera has a 6x optical zoom future, which is almost double what many other cameras offer. Although, with this comes a bit less of a wide angle ability with the camera. Users also have the option of choosing from two conversion lenses that make the images clear (keep in mind, these are very expensive). On the actual camera, the user can choose one out of 3 sharpness levels, and there is also five quality settings. There are also four scene modes (portrait, night, etc...). Options such as red-eye reduction are available for users to choose from. The camera is quite a good one, but is recommended for those with some degree of photography experience.
