Quick review

The good: Zoom lens, xD and CompactFlash support, moveable LCD screen
The bad: Can't change the lenses, images a bit flat
Verdict: A good camera, but one that is struggling to find a place in the world against entry-level DSLR models

Comments

As a retired pro who has used film cameras all my working life, I have found the Fuji 9600 to be every bit as good as I was led to expect. I like the size and handling, the fast auto focus, accurate exposure and image quality is superb. The only little gripe would have to be the manual focusing which is a bit of a pain on the occasions when I need it. Other than that, I can readily recommend this camera to anyone.
