My friend has a Fuji digital camera that she has been using from almost a year now but it so happens it is not hers and she will be returning it to its owner. I am considering getting her a new digital camera for Christmas but I am looking for something similar to what she has now, probably a bit better. She is not very much into the technical aspects of photography but can take good pictures, so a camera similar to what she already knows is the best choice.

The camera is a Fuji Finepix 2600 Zoom. This is a 2 MP camera. I am looking for a similar model but 3 MP. Is there a 3 MP camera (preferably Fuji also) that could be considered equivalent to the 2600?

The Fuji S5000 is a 10X optical zoom, movie with sound, and 3.2 mp.

errrrr.... should have specified the budget....

ops: No more than $300 or so. She would be scared by that one that looks like a SLR camera. :lol:

The Fuji 3800 is within your budget and a great camera. My next door neighbor bought one and loves it. You will go over your budget once you get a larger memory card though. Don’t get the “Executive Kit”. http://www2.buydig.com/shop/product....e&sku=FJFP3800

You want a 128Mb xD card. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...023880-7491141
