Fuji Finepix F10 reviewed

The holy grail of digital cameras may just be a cheap cam that takes good shots without making you wait through a slow startup and interminable shot-to-shot lag. While we're fans of
Kyocera's RTUNE tech (can someone please license it, now that they've quit the camera biz?), there are other proprietary solutions out there, and Forbes took a look at Fuji's 6.3 megapixel Finepix F10, which uses that company's Real Photo system. According to the review,
startup time is about 1.3 seconds and shot-to-shot is 2-3 seconds. The $500 camera also has good battery life, rated at up to 500 shots between charges. What's not to like? How about the fact that it uses Fuji's xD cards instead of SD?
Won't Fuji (and co-conspiritor Olympus) ever learn? Unless you're
Sony, you can't get away with foisting a proprietary card format on the world.
