3.0 out of 5 stars Good camera for the price, October 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Fujifilm DX-10 0.8MP Digital Camera (Electronics)

The day after I bought the DX-10 I called Fuji and found it was discontinued. How's that for instant obsolescence? I bought the DX-10, my first digital camera, as a learning tool and it is excellent for that. I was surprised at the quality of the images yet the chintzy construction of the camera body, an ugly. 7oz. plastic box. The DX-10 feels like an empty matchbox compared to a loaded F4, F3 or any lighter Nikon. After I bought the camera I found it eats batteries, so I bought an Olympus charger and four nickel-metal hydride batteries. More money. Also, I bought a special AC adapter, both items a must unless you own a battery factory. Photographers say "There are no photographers at Nikon," because even with a new Nikon, you seem to start out with your own modifications. This DX-10 was like that. I took it out of the box and rigged a neckstrap to replace the silly wrist cord that holds the DX-10 literally by a thread. The owner's manual warns not to scratch the lens or rear LCD screen, yet neither has any kind of protective cap. And a protective carrying case, like the charger and AC adapter is another extra expense. Speaking of extras, buy an extra Smart Media card to boost the 2MB card that comes with the camera. That will only record six images of the highest resolution. I bought a 16MB card, which bumps that number up to 54. Oh yes, the floppy disk adapter that let's you download the images from camera to computer? That's another expense. The DX-10 comes with a cable but it didn't fit my aging computer. To be fair, all these extra costs are no different from my experience with 35mm photography. The price of the camera is just the beginning, just the tip of the beginning. If you've never owned a digital camera, the DX-10 is a good learning tool. I've learned a lot -- much of it what to look for next time I buy digital camera.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent First Digital Camera, November 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Fujifilm DX-10 0.8MP Digital Camera (Electronics)

I purchased my DX-10 in May 99. While it was inexpensive, there have been the usual extra costs: case, extra SmartMedia card etc. For an intro into digital photography, it has been an excellent purchase. The camera is more than just a point and shoot, allowing reasonable control over picture-taking in the manual mode - probably just enough for a beginner photographer to begin to master without being overwhelming.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fine Little Camera, December 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Fujifilm DX-10 0.8MP Digital Camera (Electronics)

This is a fine little camera, at a surprisingly good price.

My interest is in photographing things for online auctions and taking pictures of our new kittens, and the camera does a great job at that. It will focus as close as 3.9 inches and give you clear, sharp photos of jewelry, etc.
