Fujifilm Finepix S1000fd 10MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Zoom Description: Product Description
The Fuji Film FinePix S1000fd's 12x optical zoom lens expands your shooting reach, covering a remarkable focal range of 33-396mm, bringing you close enough to capture subtle expressions. The single built-in lens means you're always ready to shoot, with no need for bulky extra lenses or time-consuming lens changes. Picture Stabilization mode automatically sets the optimum shutter speed and sensitivity for each scene, preventing blur from camera shake or fast-moving subjects, even in low-light situations. Super Macro mode lets you move in as close as 2cm (0.8") making it easy to take high-impact full-frame close-ups. The Panorama Shooting Mode makes it easy to create impressive panoramic photos. This mode captures and combines up to 3 consecutive shots, which are saved to the memory card as a panoramic picture. The FinePix S1000fd automatically detects and corrects unsightly red-eye reflections that often spoil flash photos of people. A large, high resolution LCD with 230K Resolution makes it easy to compose great shots and to see photo details when you play back captured images. The high-resolution LCD can display up to 100 picture images simultaneously in 10x10 array. Use this micro thumbnail view to instantly select specific photos to view or print.

Comment: Treated myself to this camera for 50th birthday and what a great gift!! This camera is awesome, easy to use, big enough to hold on to without being bulky, takes great shots - awesome zoom - is very user friendly, and has a wide assortment of settings - beach, flower and night settings are simply unbelievable!! I couldn't be happier!! If I knew how to post a picture, I would!!! I found a new cool feature everytime I used it. Talked to lots of knowledgeable people and did quite a bit of research on digital cameras before this purchase and am very, very happy I decided on this one. Price was very competitive too!!! Would highly recommend to beginner or seasoned photographer without reservation.
Summary: Excellent For Work & Play!

Comment: This camera goes with me to work everyday; taking photos of construction sites and home inspections. It also went with us last month on our 15th Wedding Anniversary to Maui, Hawaii. We took hundreds of pictures!! Sunrises from a cold volcano peak, sunsets from the beach, and full moons setting on the ocean. Even the night time views from our balcony... without a tripod. And, the price is right!!!!!

Summary: Very disappointed

Comment: We had a Fujifilm s5000 and got wondeful pictures of our two kids, the only reason to upgrade was the 3 megapixel resolution.
We decided to give the s5000 as a gift to my brother and purchase the new one s1000fd: we had never taken a picture even comparable to the quality of the old one (both in AUTO mode)!
Now I don't know even how to ask to my brother to give the s5000 back...
We have just decided to replace it with a different one, 3 months of pictures of our kids not a top level quality are enough.

Comment: If you like the style of the traditional cameras (and not the usual small "cigarette-box" size) or just don't want to spend a lot on a professional device, this is right for you. Enjoy the great quality from a known brand (Fuji), take pictures in many customized formats or record your own videos with sound. This is my 3rd Fuji camera and they keep on doing things better everyday.
