Opinion: I got this little tiny F420 for my sister's x'mas gift for $380 on ebay (Japanese version tho....) very suprise that its size alot smaller than the 2nd newest F410!! Picture quaility's fine; since i have Fuji F700 myself, i will look forward to see the difference between their sensors... SR and HR. Basically this is a point-n-shot digicam in a stylish metal body. The unlimted 320x240 30fps movie mode rocks!! I like it so much, so does my sister ^__^
PS: will update this section soon.

Problems: Nice little digicam,but not perfect tho:

1. flash recharging speed kinda slow...compare w/ my sister's old Fuji F401

2. Battery last not as long as F401/F410...

Point and shoot and fancy free.

Opinion: Build
- very compact, cute and handy. Nice metallic shell.

Operation
- less than 2s to turn on and off

- Nice weight distribution. Can hold static, do most setting and take pictures with one hand.

LCD
- unbeatable large, bright and high resolution

Storage
- xD is very fast. Review 9 pictures take no time.

Picture quality

- Quality of SuperCCD IV is nice. Can't find color shift. Its not superb but acceptable in the price range.

OTHERS
- 2 AAA Battery last for 100 pictures
- Front logo flashes in purple when camera turns on and xD being accessed :>

CONCLUSION

If you expect a small, fast and trendy low end DC, it certainly won't disappoint you.

Problems: A little lengthy time for recharging flash

The flash is too weak. The object should be within 3 meters.

No shutter or aperture priority. No manual mode. No B shutter. May be inconvienent for special scenario especially light/backlight shoots.
