lol, No, it's not the autofocus. Let me get you a sample picture from one of the reviews:

This is taken with a Canon:

This is with the Fuji:

Notice how the Canon is nice and crisp while the Fuji is smoother?

HUGE difference! Why not just get a Canon? I haven't heard many good things about Fuji.

How many megapixels are both cameras here? To me, it sounds like the fuji has lower quality or megapixels??? I'm not sure though

I have a Fuji Finepix 400-something ... I like it enough, but seeing other peoples pictures with Canons and such, it definitely does not stack up. I also notice that indoor pics are NOT crisp and when I take pictures indoors with the flash (using any setting) they just look really washed out no matter what. I have a Canon Digital Elph, which is a lot better, even though it's TINY! It's actually such a good camera that my bro-in-law, who is obsessed with technology, bought a newer version after seeing mine.

meh.. anyway, in short, I'd get a Canon over a Finepix if I could go back in time! Especially since my Fuji cost over $400.

My dad got my husband a Fuji digital camera as a gift. I can't remember the model, but its 5.2mp...perhaps the same or similar to the E510.

I have had two Sony's over the past 5 years. The first one was a 2.0mp. The newer one is a 3.2mp. The older one was good at the time, but of course it doesn't compare to our newer Sony, or the Fuji.....BUT, comparing my 3.2mp Sony to the 5.2mp FujiFilm...I like the Sony SO much better.

The FujiFilm makes AMAZING videos...extremely clear, sound quality is great. Videos are perfect with this camera. Pictures are excellent too, and macro mode is great, but I noticed it takes kind of 'fuzzy/soft/blurry' pictures indoors (when lighting is bad), and during night. My Sony's night pictures are amazing...very clear. The Fuji just isn't like that. It seems the auto-focus isn't as great. The flash also stays on when the lighting is bright, and the Sony doesn't do that. Flash goes on depending on the lighting...unless I turn it off. I noticed that helps in taking better shots. I have to turn the flash off with the Fuji everytime I want a good picture in bright lighting...and it becomes a bit of a hassle. Its nice when these things work on auto. Perhaps we're just not used to the Fuji and have to figure things out. Maybe there's a certain mode we need to put it in to fix the auto-features that we haven't discovered yet. I haven't played around with his Fuji camera that much yet, but so far, the quality doesn't seem as great as the Sony if the lighting isn't perfect. If the lighting is GOOD, then the pictures are great. We haven't read the manual yet, so MAYBE we're doing something wrong. The menu system is different from the Sony, so maybe I haven't figured it out right yet.

It IS a good camera, but it seems the Sony takes crispy clear pictures in any type of lighting, while with the Fuji, it really depends. If the lighting is right, its great, otherwise, it comes out fuzzy. My husband likes it, but I really think Sony's are better. I haven't had much experience with other cameras, but my uncle's Olympus takes great pictures, and my cousins have Canons, which are also really good.
