Background blur is a consequence of a shallow depth of field, meaning that the distance where things are in focus is a small area in front of you. Closer, it's blured. Further and is blured too.
Backbround blur can be obtained with:
using a big aperture - you can't change the aperture on the Finepix, as it hasn't a diaphragma, but a ND filter.
using a long lens - that means you have to use the biggest zoom you can with your camera
close subject and distant background - when you use a longer lens, the depth of field get shallow, so you have to garantee that the background is out of the zone where everything is on focus.
1. Try cleaning the lens with a soft dry cloth. Do NOT blow on the lens first.
2. You could be experiencing camera shake - if you are in shutter mode and if your shutter speed is too slow for the light available you get a blurred image.
Make sure that you have not left the camera in Macro mode. This is a special extreme close-up mode offered by some cameras, and it does not allow autofocus on objects at normal distances.
Found the same thing and I think the answer is the opposite of previous suggestions. The s2000 is truly awful at anything above about 400ASA The degree of pixel binning it uses just makes the pictures look terrible. Force the camera to use 400 or slower (lower numbers), force flash and I think you'll see a great difference. I was on the verge of sending mine back before I discovered this.

Sopundspretty daft I know but I have been caught out in this way too. If it's a new camera and been blurry all the time make absolutely sure there is no fine protective cover over lens or particularly the screen. Sounds silly but just a faint chance! Good luck. Judging by the number of problems it looks as though it's time to bring back the old style 'proper' cameras, don't you think? "Grumpy Old Man".
i'm having the same prob...i saw another forum where they were all having this and they all said to fix it you'd need to call up fuji help, but the number i found in my manual is an unnasigned number!!!! wtf
