 The
FinePix 2650 proves that entry-level digital cameras don't necessarily have to
take mediocre pictures or skimp on the features. Unlike many other cameras at
this price, this model offers a limited amount of manual control, with six white
balance modes and four different flash modes. Of course, everything can be set
to automatic as well, and that's where this camera is in its element.
Offering only 2 megapixels, the FinePix 2650 isn't going to stun you with finely
detailed images, but it is perfectly adequate for creating small prints or
snapping photos you plan to e-mail or use on a Web site. Its color reproduction
is impressive, as the camera doesn't suffer from the supersaturation problems
that plague lesser products in this price range. Colors are bright but accurate,
and don't "bleed" very much due to compression.
Unfortunately the viewfinder cuts off a surprisingly large part of the final
image, making it difficult to frame shots. The excellent LCD on the back of the
camera compensates, of course, and for the types of pictures most people will
use this camera for it's a minor problem.
Of greater concern is the long interval of image processing after a shot is
snapped. The camera churns away compressing and storing an image for up to 8
seconds after each picture, eliminating the possibility of taking shots in quick
succession.
Otherwise, the included 16 MB xD-Picture Card is fast during transfers and when
images are erased, although users may want to upgrade to a larger card if they
plan to stick with high-quality images of 1,600 x 1,200. Despite its few
problems, the FinePix 2650 remains an excellent light-duty snapshot camera. --T.
