After months of researching digital cameras I finally decided on the Fujifilm FinePix E550, which arrived today. 6.3 Megapixels and 4x optical zoom, which is nice, but it’s also fast which is a quality tough to find in a consumer-level digital camera. I also like that it takes 640×480 video with audio which is only limited by the size of your memory (xD) card. Here’s my first photo (be forewarned, it’s gross) of my hand in macro mode. Pretty good detail. And that’s after going from 2848×2136 pixels to 720×511 and then jpg’ing it for the web. You can see individual skin cells in the original. It’s really pretty disgusting. =]
