First, I would like to state that I don't own the camera.
I just wanted to have it, but many things - mainly the image quality - let me down and made me not to buy this, otherwise nice camera.
I've looked at the sample images on many web-sites and came to the following conclusion:
- Image quality is worse than average
- Barrel distortion is higher than average
- Images washed out, not clean when zoomed in
- Worse than average resolution
Comparing Fuji's image quality to Canon's, I can only strengthen the above issues.
Shame on Fuji for making such a nice camera with such a bad image quality.
Just look at some samples, zoom in, and you will agree with me for sure.
I've also read that AF in low-light is poor. At this price range, that shouldn't be. -0.5 for the features due to the lack of an AF-assist lamp.
