Fujifilm FinePix S100FS Review | Compact Digital Cameras | CNET UK

The first thing you'll notice is the S100's size. It's actually chunkier than entry-level cameras such as the Olympus E-510 , with the giant lens dwarfing the E-510's kit lens. There are opposing schools of thought on this subject, with some preferring more hefty cameras.
