Very Disappointed Sep 07, 2008
By M. Brewer
"AutumnSunset"
I pre-ordered this camera based upon my previous experience with Fujifilm digital cameras.
I have owned 2 Fujifilm digital cameras, and the color and sharpness of the pictures were awesome. I lost one of the cameras, and replaced it with no hesitation with another Fujifilm - Finepix A303 with 3.2 megapixels. I was not disappointed. I have excellent pictures from the A303 camera - have even framed 11x14's and made calendars from the pictures. Another plus on the A303 is that it uses AA batteries.
So I eagerly awaited the arrival of the Finepix J50 - why should I need reviews when I had such great experience with my previous Finepix cameras? I looked forward to the larger LCD screen, the extra zoom, the extra pixels and features - hopefully arriving just in time for the birth of my new grandchild. BIG MISTAKE! It arrived in time - but made grainy, off-color pictures. The zoom is nice, but what good is the zoom when it rarely makes good enough quality pictures to enlarge.
I received this camera in April, and have been experimenting with it to find the "secret" to great pictures. NO LUCK so far! I am researching other digital cameras - and have been since May. Obviously, there is no hope for this Fujifilm. What a let down!
Interestingly enough, the review before mine is the first review that I have found on the Fujifilm Finepix J50 - and I have been looking for months. I had wondered if mine was just a "bad" camera, but evidently not. There must be other disappointed customers out there. This previously very-satisfied Finepix digital camera customer, is now looking at Canon and Nikon digital cameras.

 Horrible Camera... Jul 16, 2008
By F. Reyes
There were no reviews for this camera before I purchased it, but I was so in love with the features, that I decided to get it any way. I had a Fuji camera before (6mp) but lost it last August while on vacation. It was a great camera, so I thought I could not go wrong with this one. Plus all the new features sounded great.
Well from the first picture I took, I knew there would be a problem. I took about 40 pictures trying to play with the settings and sizes, but all the pictures still look grainy and fuzzy. The quality is not what I expected and it left me wondering, where are the 8MPs?

Do not buy the Finepix J50 Mar 03, 2009
By Paul
Bought as a replacement to an older, less megapixel Finepix. The pictures are huge yet grainy every time. The colors are dull. Can't find setting changes to make it work. Searched for other reviews and all concur. Avoid this back step in The Fuji line.

 THE PERFECT CAMERA Aug 02, 2009
By LKW
"arawandme"
My camera executes flawlessly. It comes with a rechargeable battery and charger. Fuji picture quality is unbelievable. Definitely no complaints here, I absolutely love my camera. It's super easy to operate. The pictures are sharp and clear. I have a new German Shepherd puppy and she moves very quickly. For this camera, no problem, it auto focus and shoots fast. I am glad I bought it before reading all of the negative comments, I would have missed out on a great camera. Definitely worth the money.

For beginners only May 20, 2009
By Richard W. Fitch
"twiga_riq"
My trusted Canon developed a failed board. My choice was to repair a 4-yr old camera(and wait 8-10 weeks)or find a new one. Not wanting to spend a great deal right now, but wanting shots of summer activities, I opted for the J50. As others have stated, this is not the camera I expected from Fuji. Produces good close shots, has a very good macro function and is a very compact unit. However, pictures are grainy, lack accurate color, sparse manual over-rides and very limited flash range. I have returned it and will now 'surf' for a more robust model. This one might be acceptable for someone just starting with digital photography, but not one I would recommend to a more experienced user.
