Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP Express Review at The Imaging Resource – The verdict:

Our sample of the Fuji Z33WP showed pretty severe softness all along the left side of the image, but it wasn't just a matter of a tilted sensor chip: All corners of the frame were very soft, so we suspect if the left side had been sharper, the right side would have gotten worse. If we just concentrated on the center of the frame, its prints at low ISO looked OK at sizes up to 8×10 inches, but it was hard to get around the extreme softness in the corners, and there was some fringing (chromatic aberration?) even in the center of the framme. Taking the corners into account, this is really a camera for making 4×6 inch snapshot prints or small photos for web posts.
