Fuji FinePix F710

I have three Fuji cameras and I loved the picture quality and portability BUT the company has been selling cameras (F700) with defective parts and NOT standing behind their products. I have had TWO Fuji F700's and both went bad with the exact same problem: I got a fuzzy gray screen adn was unable to take pictures. One was under a year old and the other was just over a year old. I paid over $130.00 to have the first one repaired because I liked the camera. When the same thing happened to the second camera, I went on line and found out there was a known defect with teh camera causing the exact same problem BOTH of mine had. I paid nearly $600.00 to purchase the two cameras and the repairs on one of them. When I discovered that it was a defective part I asked that they repair the camera at no charge, including documentation of the on line policy for repairing defective cameras. THEY REFUSED AND WANTE TO CHARGE $149.00 plus tax for repair. Their product DOES NOT hold up and their company DOES NOT stand behind their product.
I will never purchase another FUJI product after the way they handled me. I WAS a good customer and referred many people to purchase the camera I had, only to find out it had a life expectancy of under 1.5 years and it cost more to repair than I can buy a NEW Kodak, canon or Nikon for. I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANY FUJI PRODUCTS.

Photo quality was good but the two cameras lasted less than an year and had a defect the company was aware of yet they wouldn't replace.

Defective products (See web searches for Fuji FinePix problems and you will get a good idea of how many dissatisfied customers they have. )
