We first saw Fuji's
Finepix Z100fd back in July, but now that camera-buying season is in full force, PhotographyBlog has taken it out for a review and pronounced it a worthy candidate for your hard-earned cash. Of particular note was the 5X optical zoom, which is better than most other cams in this price range, and the image stabilization and face detection systems, which worked admirably. The camera also drew praise for its slick diagonally-opening lens cover and illuminated Z logo. On the downside, the Z100fd was fairly pokey to store shots and didn't offer the absolute highest image quality, but those apparently aren't dealbreakers -- the folks at PB say overall, the Z100fd is "a fashion camera that isn't simply a matter of style over substance."

umm surprisingly good? i believe you mean surprisingly well
It's a surprisingly good product that performs surprisingly well. How's that?
Yeah, saying a camera is surprisingly well doesn't make any sense. Unless it was sick at one point. Maybe it had the sniffels or something. ;)
pokey? i didn't understand this so googled it, here's whatttt:

Pokey = colloquial for slow
从机身上看不出斜开滑盖的轨迹。。。
I really like the little digital camera I'm currently using for quick-and-dirty snapshots (nobody can carry an SLR everywhere ...), the Pentax A20. But I have to say that Fujis, at least in my experience, are more reliable and pretty decent as well. Notably, my A20 is pretty darn 'pokey' as well. I may pick one of these up. It's cute.
