Advantages: Huge zoom, Focus Tracking, Easy to use Disadvantages: Bulky, A little slow, AA batteries are a bit inconvenient
The Fuji FinePix S1500 is the latest incarnation of the very successful FinePix S1000fd. It is very SLR-like in appearance and the added bulk of the battery-holder/grip does give it an assured feeling in your hands. Of course, this can be a disadvantage, and if you want a camera that you can just slip in-and-out of your pocket, then maybe a slimmer compact should be considered.
The 12x optical zoom is excellent and it equates to 33-396mm in 35mm terms - and if this isn't enough, there is a 5.7x digital zoom feature too.
The menus are friendly and easy to navigate, and there are helpful explanatory prompts that appear on thew LCD screen when the mode-dial setting is changed.
There are 14 preset scenes to choose from, each setting the camera to its optimum settings for the given scenario, but on top of this, the camera can be used ...
Advantages: Small, heats the fulll room, bargain price Disadvantages: takes a whle to heat up
B&Q Oil Filled Radiator
Bought one of these around 6months ago our heating wasn't going to be working for a couple of weeks so bought this for the bedroom. Went to B&Q as knew they had quite a selection didn't want a huge one as we don't really have much room in the bedroom.
We bought it as a replacement for the halogen that we had been using which the dogs kept walking past and singing their tails in.
It takes quite a while to heat up even when it is on full power but once it is warm it is more than enough to warm our bedroom up. It has various settings of heat so once the room is warm you can turn it down which is a really useful feature, the dial for doing this how ever does not have numbers on it and I do think it would benefit it if it did so you could turn it down a set amount and know which setting you usually use ...
Advantages: fun to answer, interesting insight Disadvantages: makes me think i am strange, have i completed this before?
really grouchy about having to share my bed in recent months. My boyfriend seems to have got the hint as he is currently working lots of night shifts!
3. What are you listening to right now?
I am watching and therefore listening to wife swap on television. It is an old episode and I am trying to work out if I have seen it before. I am not really watching it but it is amusing me listening to a woman argue why benefits are the way to go!
4. What are the last 4 digits in your cell phone number?
6809. not a very interesting answer and probably wrong seeing as my memory is awful when it comes to phone numbers?particularly with my own!
5. What was the last thing you ate?
I am home alone tonight, it is Friday and I am tired. Therefore I was a lazy girly and ordered a peparoni pizza. It was very nice but I feel quite sick now ...
