speaklightly - (August 21, 2004) As a professional digital camera lecturer, I must admit that the Fuji E-550 was a very pleasant surprise for me. Priced at about $340, this digital camera produced digital photos that were much sharper, more detailed, and more excellent than I, frankly expected. I found the digital camera very easy to use right out of the box. While this digital camera does have a 12mp interpolated image size available, I found the 6mp native image size to have more contrast, detail and resolution. As you might expect in a consumer digital camera, the digital camera's flash is not very powerful. At 200 ISO it will produce excellent exposures out to 13 feet. By adding a supplementary slave flash such as

snufalufagus1 - (September 24, 2004) I spent a LOT of time investigating digital cameras online -one would think I was buying a car or something. Anyway I am a novice camera user and remain very impressed with this little guy. I would certainly recommend it. The movie mode is great for 'vignettes' or small movie snapshots. I also use the black and white a lot. I also didn't think the LCD would matter very much, but it does: I never use the viewfinder. I appreciate the large size of the LCD when passing the camera around to friends to view pictures and movies. Hint #1: Immediately jack up the megapixel resolution to 5 so that you can capture moments in the best resolution possible. Then, bypass Sony's ridiculous profit margin

joysmahal - (October 27, 2004) This camera is awesome. I upgraded from a Canon A70 and it was well worth the money. The Canon A95 uses 4 AA bateries, but it eats through normal alkalines way too fast. I highly recommend getting rechargeable NiMH AA batteries and a quick charger. The swivel screen is a major plus, it's 1.8" compared to 1.5" from the Canon A70. The screen is also higher resolution than the A70. I have used the camera for 3 weeks and printed about 50 pics so far. The pics look great and I even cropped to zoom in on some pictures and you couldn't see any sign of pixelation. I love the manual flexibility with this camera, plus the automatic modes make it easy for anyone to use. The camera

Jon-Jon - (11/28/2009) I am 20 years old and have tried everything from asking for tips to surfing the net for free instructions, and this is what I was looking for the whole time. It will show you the secrets of how to skate well if you go out and work at what it tells you. Trust me, it works. Don't waste any more time. There's no reason for you to look any further. This is it!

monster265 - (11/28/2009) Brought these speakers on Amazon in Sept 2008 and have had them for over a year. Just wanted to provide a simple review regarding their performance. They are a very good entry level speaker (pair for under 0.5K) with great sonic balance lows, mids and highs. The bass response has developed over time, at first I thought a subwoofer would always be necessary, although a subwoofer has its role in a home theater system; these speakers will hold their own in a stereo setup. I have removed the cross-over bridging clips and run separate amps to the bass and treble sections of each speaker from my Yamaha RX-V663. Highly recommended speaker. The piano finish luster still shines and presents a nice complement to your entertainment center. One will be very pressed to find a 3-way speaker pair of this quality and price.

kumarram - (11/28/2009) I bought the printer during black friday deal from Staples. It took me less than 15 min to set up and print the first page. WiFi connectivity works very well. Not sure about longevity of ink cartridges.
