Yes, yes, it's another digital camera thread.
So I'm thinking of getting one of these as a supplemental quick little point and shoot for parties and shows and the like - mostly because it has the best indoor/low level light performance from what I've read.
Does anyone here have one or know of a reason not to get one? Or has a better suggestion that doesn't a million dollars?

fuji is supposed to have a really good dynamic range. i have been really curious about the fuji S5 pro.
- if you can afford one of those why not buy the Nikon D300, you can get better lenses for itDaro
- this is ture. very well suited for wedding photogs. Be warned that although a great sensor. it is still an interpolated 12 megapixel. If you are after real resolution you may want to look at other f-mount nikons.danthon
- megapixels. if you want real resolution yuo may want to look at other f-mount nikonsdanthon
- he already has one of those.

Some of Fuji's high end cameras have a really good dynamic range. That one is avarage.

flashbender - according to the review at dpreview.com, the f50fd doesn't boast much more real resolution than its older sibling, the f31fd - more megapixels, but more noise. you might want to look into a used f31fd, or an f30 - they also had the awesome supersensitive ccd design as the f50fd.

^^ Yeah, I saw that in a couple places .. thanks, that is what I was looking for. Justification to get the lower MP model ... confirmation that the CCD is that much better.

or something similar (probably an older model of that). thing takes some pretty sweet pics.- That's a fine idea.flashbender
