Ron:
The E900 is sold on Buydig.com for $251.00. This camera came out in October 2005.
I have an E550 which is a sensational digital camera. It is on sale @ Amazon.com for $149.95.
Most digital shots are 3MB which will enlarge to 8x12 with professional clarity and sharpness.
From reading the reviews, they are fairly identical..the E900 is a slight upgrade from the E550. Considering everything, they are easy to use, with little shutter lag.
I love the finepix with super cdd, regardless of model.
