Reviews of the FinePix 3800 Digital Camera

CNET Review
The Good: 6X optical zoom; simple interface.
The Bad: Low-res electronic viewfinder; noticeable shutter delay; hard to see the LCD in low light.
The Bottom Line: Its 6X optical zoom, decent images, and aggressive price make this camera a good but not top choice for point-and-shooters.
