Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD

...up buying was called the Fujifilm S800fd, it is known as a bridge type camera and it allows you take brilliant quality photos which can be confused for professional photographs. I was told that this was probably the closest I was going to get to a DSLR, than actually paying the price for one of those, and I think I have brought something pretty good here. ==The Specifications== Pixels: 8.3million pixels Lens: 18x Optical Zoom Lens Shutter Speed: ...
...inch Power Source: 4x AA batteries Weight: 510g ==The Fun Stuff == The best stuff about the camera. ===What’s In the Box=== In the box you will receive the following: 4 x AA Alkaline Batteries- These are pretty basic, but mine have lasted for two weeks now. Shoulder Strap- Almost impossible to attach, took me a good 20 minutes or so. Lens Cap and Cord- If you use the cord then if you turn the camera on with the lens cap still on, the cap gets ...

Review of Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD

...money I opted for the Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD which I know is one of the best cameras there is to buy and it is 8 megapixels. There are five main features to this camera and although i'm no expert at using all the specifications I have mastered the basics for now. The Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD has: (1) 18x Optical Zoom - with this zoom I can zoom in 18x and take pictures of things which are quite close up or far away. What I really like to do is ...
...a collage. (2) Face Detection - When aiming your camera at something to take a photograph this camera will automatically zoom into a face and focus on it whilst at the same removing red-eyes automatically. (3) Dual IS (Image Stabilization) - I use this function if I am taking a shot of something moving, it allows the camera to capture the whole image and not leave a blurred image. For example if I am taking a picture of a bird flying through the ...

Review of Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD

My previous camera was a Fuji finepix A101, and has been an absolutely fantastic little camera. I took some fantastic photos of my beautiful little girl with it, but couldn't enlarge them because it only has 1.3 mega pixels! When looking for a new camera, I only looked at fuji finepix because I was so happy with my previous camera. I decided to get a digital SLR so I could take close up photos of flowers. It cost £183 from Amazon; the case and ...
...is rather daunting, the camera is simple to use and easy to get the hang of. It has a range of useful features. The face detection software allows the camera to focus on any faces in the shot. It can detect up to ten faces in one shot, and you can select which face should be the main point of focus. The main face is highlighted in a green square, with any additional faces highlighted in a white square. This camera unfortunately has the earliest ...

Review of Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD

I only got this in August as a replacement for my brilliant but ageing Konica Minolta Z2 (4Mp 10X Optical zoom). The camera is fantastic, it feels weighty, solid and balanced, the grip is ideal and everything is within easy reach. On one Saturday night I took over 350 photos with this and over 500 in total at a Blues festival, in comparison to the Z2 this is a different class, the sheer ability of that huge 18x lens is wonderful, the image stabilisation ...
...on 'auto' were perfectly acceptable and, after talking to a professional photographer, manual settings were easy to set and produced outstanding results. The photos I took were taken in a dark tent, pointing into the stage lighting and most of them came of far better than expected. I love this camera for is solid easy to use style and that monster of a lens (yes size does matter) if you don't want to pay over the odds for a lower spec SLR buy this, ...

Review of Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD

On the whole the camera is a bit bulky, however all your misgivings vanish once you switch it on. From the seemingly infinite zoom to the amazing 8 MPix resolution you can almost feel the surfaces of objects in the viewfinder, surface glare is reduced so that your shots don't get "whiteout" and the colours are vivid and very true to life. Amazingly easy to use, manual-phobics needn't fear this cam as it is really quite easy to operate once you accept ...
...was also a Finepix by Fuji, then you can basically do this asleep) Depending on what range of memory card you get, the SD memory card(option) holds at the very least 16MB, but you can go up to a gig if you are a real photo-buff, higher resolution pictures do take up more memory but the effect is worth it. A classic digital camera, which only loses a few points for its rather unattractive design, but worth every penny as it makes everything you point ...

Review of Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD

This is a great camera it is 8.0MP although this is not as much as some cameras you could buy that cost less, it makes up for this in the quality you get. The colours are very realistic and captures the depth and true light recreated. There are several settings for different locations and pictures you take such as flower, Party, Beach, Sunset, Auction, Portrait, Night, Fireworks,Snow, Museum, Text and Sport. It also has a macro mode a setting for ...
...and a digital picture stabilisation mode also. also features auto focus and infra red to get the right light settings as well. the pop up flash is very bright and the night mode will easily light up your night time photos You can also you it in manual were you can adjust the light and shutter sensitivity. It will take moves with sound and in a decent watch able quality. The picture quality is very good and can hook up to a tv to share pictures and ...

Review of Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD

All these people saying grainy images etc, They are all newbie's that don't even know what iso is, Cause they shoot in AUTO mode and in AUTO fuji cam's tend to sellect to high an ISO, Switch to PROGRAM mode lower the iso and your sorted. Very usable images up to iso400 iso800 is not to bad, The fact that you get 27mm wideangle, 486mm telephoto, And a ccd shift IS system that work's great, All this in a tidy little package for this price is nothing ...
...Which suffer's a blue band issue, And feel's absolutely cack and cheap to hold. The only reason this cam get's some negative reviews on here is because they have no idea how to use a cammera, They shoot on Auto at iso800 iso1600 and say it's grainy, of course it will be grainy you numb nut's. And people keep comparing it to DSLR's, It's not a DSLR, A DSLR will cleary have better ISO performance etc. But then your looking at carrying at least two ...

Review of Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD

This new camera is my 3rd Fuji in 8 years. It follows a similar format to my others and despite the vaste range of features it really was easy to get started. The software hooks into windows XP proffessional easily and the printed results on my epsom R360 are the best ever. All the extra features show promise and it really has the feel and performance of a traditional SLR. The lens with optical zoom is most impressive and good for all situations - point and shoot or enthusiastic amateur. ...

Review of Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD

The S8000fd places a smaller sensor behind a much longer-range zoom lens in a less SLR-like body. Going head to head with the Panasonic FZ18 and Olympus SP560UZ the S8000fd is Fuji's most ambitious zoom compact to date. It is also the first long-zoom camera from Fuji to offer image stabilization (in this case a CCD-shake system), which is offered by most competing brands and is pretty much essential with a zoom this long. The S8000fd packs an awful lot into its compact body, and seems to be trying pretty hard to be all things to all people, with manual exposure controls sitting alongside point-and-shoot convenience features such as face detection. There is a high-speed shooting mode (at reduced resolution), and some extremely high sensitivity modes (again at lower resolution), for shooting in low light. ...

Review of Fujifilm FinePix S8000FD

If you're looking for a cut above your normal point and shoot compact then this is probably for you. I had one for six months and never regretted owning it. A bit bigger than the average compact it lets you decide how creative you want to be, plenty of settings for you to play with if thats your thing or just let the camera decide for you. With 8MP's on tap your photos do look good even up to A4 size which is plenty big enough. This feels like a ...

...eight megapixels of resolution. The Fujifilm FinePix S8000fd has body styling similar to that of single-lens reflex digital camera, and uses a 1/2.35-inch CCD image sensor. The Fujifilm S8000fd has got the Fujinon Zoom-branded 18x optical zoom lens, which offers a 27mm to 486mm zoom range and an f/2.8 maximum aperture at wide-angle. With a zoom lens this powerful, image stabilization is a must-have and Fujifilms Dual Image Stabilization system completely ...
