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. A selection of tailored shooting modes provide ideal settings for everything from shutter speed and exposure to white balance. 1/2.3 CCD Sensor File format - JPEG (EXIF Ver 2.2) Aperture - F2.8 - F6.4 (Wide) / F5.0 - F8.0 (Telephoto), max 5 steps in 1/3 EV increment Shooting Modes - Portrait, Landscape, Sport, Night, Fireworks, Sunset, Snow, Beach, Museum, Party, Flower, Text, and PS (Picture Stabilization) Shutter speed - 1/4 second to 1/2000 second in Auto mode Self-timer - 10 seconds and 2 seconds delay Dimensions - Width 4.1 x Height 2.9 x Depth 2.7 (102.5x73x67.8mm) Weight - 11.5 ounces (325 grams)

5 out of 5 stars Love it!   October 12, 2008
J. Birecki (Ohio)
OK, I will admit I was having problems with this camera at first, and thought of buying another camera, as most of my pictures were coming out dark or black until my dad messed with one of the settings, the high speed shooting. Then they came out great! And oddly enough didn't slow down the shutter speed at all. Since then I have gotten nothing short of outstanding!

I adore the zoom on this camera because a lot of times I take my camera to the ballpark and get higher seats. Great view for watching, but a lot of times not so great for most point-and-shoots. So the 12x zoom and the 10mp quality on this camera is perfect! If my picture isn't as up close as I would like, I can still crop in some without it looking grainy or pixilated.

The colors are great, although sometimes not as true without using an editing program, which is true of most digital cameras. Not the camera's fault, but most times it does stay true to color and lighting.

Working in a place that sells cameras I recommend this camera a lot to photographers (or parents) who want something more than your basic point-and-shoot.

I posted a couple of my favorite pictures to show how well this camera takes pictures.

I waited a long time to enter the digital photography arena, I use a 35mm SLR and never thought a digital could compare. Well, this one does, the instructions are easy to understand, it operates as advertised, the picture quality is amazing, features are useful and fun to use. The accompanying FinePix viewer is good, and the user manuel on CD provides extra hints and instructions for use.
I would recommend this product to anyone interested in owning a digital camera.



4 out of 5 stars amazon and fujifilm S1000fd camera   October 6, 2008
Michael E. Griffin (Macon GA USA)
The camera based on limited use seems to be a well engineered item. I would much prefer a complete written instruction book though rather than the supplied cd in pdf format.
My opinion of Amazon though now stinks. I got the camera on 9/17/08. As of 10/6/08, the price has been cut twice by a total of $20 and they refuse to credit me the difference.



5 out of 5 stars A Perfect Choice   October 4, 2008
Peter Gordon (Mandeville, JAMAICA)
I am very pleased with the Fujifilm Finepix S1000fd 10MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Zoom. Very excellent quality pictures and the optical zoom will definitely go and get your object for you! It can definitely turn your night into day, if you so desire. A perfect choice for the advanced amateur photographer.
