You might want to mention some specific models, as I've used
several of Fujis (mostly the S-series), and far from being fragile,
they are quite robust, and have performed well for several years.
Do you have first-hand experience, or did a birdy whisper some
nonsense into your ear, causing a wee bit of irreparable brain
damage from the accompanying traces of moisture?
