Looking at buying a compact, I homed in on the Fujifilm Finepix F31fd. Has anyone here used one? They seem to do alot of shouting about its face detection ability, it can recognise up to 10 faces in the shot and optimise the settings to give the best results. It also boasts up to ISO 3200 at full resolution, so its good in low light conditions too. Is this at a compromise with other features I wonder?  I used a fujifinepix F700 for a few years and couldn't fault it, so that, and having a few Xd cards and batteries compatible with this makes me think I'll try and get one.
Any thoughts or tips appreciated? How does it fare with landscape photography I wonder?
