Photography Blog reviews the Fujifilm Finepix S6500fd:

“Compared with the likes of the Nikon D40, Sony A100 and Canon EOS 400D, the DSLRs all offer faster performance (especially in RAW mode) and better image quality because of the larger sensor sizes. The 3 shot limit in the continuous mode, and complete lack of any continuous shooting when using RAW, will put off sports-shooters. In addition the RAW software that Fujifilm provides in the box is simply not up to the job. The S6500fd’s electronic viewfinder also suffers in comparison, being less comfortable and accurate than a traditional optical viewfinder, especially for action photography. So despite some great, DSLR-like features such as the manual zooming and focusing rings, the advantages of the compact digicam format (movie mode, live preview via the LCD screen, dust-free fixed lens) don’t quite out-weigh the disadvantages of this camera when compared with a DSLR.”
