Let me quote the words from a guy posted dpreview.com forum
fuji f31fd the jewel in compact cameras..
If you try to see its simple images, would easily find image detail, sharpness and color rendering cannot be competed by any compact DC. ISO up to 800 is still very useable. Long lasting battery power. Full manual operating mode. Great fill flashing! All of these are factors of what we called a good camera. If you’re looking for a DC now and if quality of image is your concern, I high recommend you to take a look of this camera. Or you may try to search any simple uploaded by people online. The only drawback is it’s using xD, which is expensive and without many choices in the market. And of course, we would hope the body can be further slimmer. However, please be reminded, don’t think FinePix F40fd is a better successor, it’s totally different stuff! So, remember the model no., don’t get it wrong!

Preview from dpreview.com, amazingly it can be even sharper than the image from Nikon D50 + 50mm f1.8. May be I should post some simples here too. It’s really the best compact DC this moment.
