I'm not familiar with the Olympus, but if the Fuji S5200 is
anything like my S5100, pros would include a good lens, all of the
necessary manual controls, operating simplicity, light weight and
very good battery life from AA batteries (hundreds of shots from a
set of alkalines and twice as many from NiMH batteries). Drawbacks
would be the lack of a flash hotshoe, less than ideal manual
focusing and a dim viewfinder (EVF) when there isn't much light,
although it does have a focus assist lamp, which is bright enough to
help get the camera pointed where it's needed.
