Reviews of the Fujifilm FinePix S700 (black)
-
CNET Review
The Good: Low-noise, higher-ISO photos; broad set of manual controls; optical zoom operates in movie mode; runs on AA batteries.
The Bad: Frustrating design; sluggish performance; no optical image stabilization.
The Bottom Line: The Fujifilm FinePix S700 would be a nice budget megazoom if it weren't hampered by mediocre performance and a frustrating design.

Review Summary: it uses AA batteries, which is a huge plus in my book. They're cheaper than proprietary lithium-ion batteries, and you can use off-the-shelf alkalines when the rechargeable ones die
