Perfect Camera for both semi-pros and semi-travelers

I love the size, features and cost of this camera. It make it so much easier for me to enjoy taking pictures and knowing that it is helping me get the correct focus and obtaining pictures I am shooting for one reason and seeing other reasons I would have taken the same shot had I seen it originally.

Great price!

Nice.. Very Nice..

I love this camera so much, I purchased it three times.
It has great zoom, nice clear pics on 4MB selection, nice video too. It comes with a 16MB card, which, now that the hi def pics arent 2MB each (about 800k), you can fit more than 8. I purchased a 1 GB card that can hold several hundred pics, as well as decent, good quality video. It comes with FinePix software which allows you to make a Video CD, DVD, etc.. which is nice for special occassions. I purchased a USB XD reader with this to take the card out, and connect directly into my laptop, rather than physically connecting the camera to the laptop. The downside is the long startup time, and its hunger for batteries. Use Energize Lithum batteries. They last at least 50 times longer than regular batteries. Long distance inside pics with ok or dark light dont come out very well, unless you set it for nightpics, and have a tripod. The manual settings are good if you know what they mean. I like the shutter delay while photographing fireworks with a tripod.

A very nice shot!

I just received mine and love it. Not a bad deal for a lower end style digital camera. I am definitely an amateur who just happens to love shooting pics. The Fuji S5100 gives me the option to both point and shoot OR adjust for manual shooting. This is my 3rd digital camera and really was not looking to get anything besides a Canon or Sony, but am now a believer. Additionally, I saw in a Consumer Report today (June 2009) that Fuji ranks higher than Canon and Sony for less repair issues (only 3%). Also, be sure to see my pics here under recently added (not most popular). I shot them the same day I got the camera. I just went for it and think I got some really great shots.

The absolute WORST customer service!!!

The camera is fine as long as nothing goes wrong. Fuji has the worst customer service I have ever delt with. They pass you from one person to another and do everything they can not to help you. Be prepared to deal with the worst customer service in the business. I really hope this helps you.

good transition from SLR film camera.

As an owner of a Pentax K-1000, I really like this Fuji S5100. Its simple to use, and the prints come out very nice. I like the feel of this camera because it feels like my SLR. I find the little pocket digitals no different that the old Kodak pocket camera. I like the S5100 for its options and ease of use.

Congratulations!

Fuji FinePix Z5 fd 6.3 MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Chocolate Brown)

Customer Review :

An amazingly strong camera!

I am very serious in everything that follows:

Over a course of four years, this camera has withstood more abuse than any camera should. I have literally run it over with my car at 40 mph on dirt... more than once. I have dropped it over a hundred times onto hard surfaces. The front faceplate looks like it has 3 bullet dents. The LCD screen has dust and hairs behind it. It is scratched so much you can't see scratches. It has been rained on, dropped in mud, and been literally thrown from a car traveling at 55 mph, sent into brush. It has been stuck with double sided tape to the back of a car doing 55 mph offroad. It was taped to the front of a motorcycle. It was held outside the window of a car doing 100 mph. It was held outside a car doing 70 mph in the rain. It was used in 0 degree flash freezes.

I never thought anything about Fuji... and now I can't imagine buying anything else. I simply cannot stress how great this camera is. It is not a shockproof camera--but it has earned the title!

Don't believe me? See this camera in action, "Chris Offroads his Sebring" on YouTube:

After over a year of use, I feel it is more than safe to say WOW! Fantastic videos & many high quality photos. Many were taken on horseback during long distance competion in high winds, blowing snow, blowing rain, frozen & even nice weather.

The zoom wouldn't work on the first camera sent it back and got one that is perfect. Very nice no hassles.

Grainy indoor pictures

This camera takes great outdoor pictures, but indoor pictures esp at lower light and close ups are quite grainy. I bought a Nikon Coolpix P80, a little more expensive and larger to carry, but the picture quality is much better. Still looking for a great pocket sized camera.

Neat camera

I have the pink one. I love the color, and I feel special because it slides to turn on. No it might not get the best pictures, but it suits my needs. If I want to be a photographer, I'll buy a slr camera. As far as I know it doesn't have sepia, which isn;t the end of the world. I wish it has better pixels also.

Love this camera

This camera takes great pictres. I love the size of it. I would still like to get a digital slr camera that you can add different lens too but this camera has awesome features. I like that it is easy to travel with and light weight, it fits in my purse. I also like that they sell an acc. for it where you can use it underwater. In my opinion this camera can't be beat for price, quality, features etc. I can't find any faults and the face detection is pretty neat. Enjoy it if you get it.

Allowed me to print VERY LARGE pictures

I was preparing for a trip to Peru, and needed my first digital camera for my first trip out of the country. Because my room is very sparse, I was hoping to be able to decorate with some very large pictures. In fact, the only thing I cared about was the ability break a picture down into many smaller pieces, print each of them out, and to print each out so that they could be combined into very large pictures of high quality. In this, the camera worked perfectly! I printed one particular picture (that wasn't even in the highest resolution)on 12 pieces of photo paper. This gave me a picture that was 2.5 ft wide and almost 3 ft tall. The quality of the pictures is fantastic. Even when inspecting the picture from inches away I cannot see individual pixels. I am confident that, if I had enough photo paper, I could enlarge higher resolution pictures to more than 5 feet tall without any distracting loss of quality.

The only reason I didn't give this camera 5 stars is because I am not familiar enough with the more advanced features to give the camera a perfect overall score. All I can say is that for my uses, it was amazing!

12 MP digital camera

this is a great camera.
my first digital was also a fuji. my son is using it now. 2 other digital cameras I have had are trash. lasted 1>2 years and died.
purchased one for a co-worker, for her son @ work, and he says it is great.
battery life is very good, second battery is a good idea though, no loss of picture time that way.
have taken several videos with it in Vegas, they came out very good.

Editorial Review :

The Fuji Film FinePix Z20 10-Megapixel Digital Camera features 10-Megapixels of high resolution to capture every moment in beautiful color, and later crop and enlarge without loss of detail. With powerful ISO1600 sensitivity and Anti-blur mode, photos in more scenes come out clear, bright and free of blur and flash washout. The Picture Stabilization Mode can use a very fast shutter speed to prevent blur from camera shake, fast-moving subjects or both. One Touch Movie button makes movies easy to shoot. Use the simple built-in edit functions to put the finishing touches on a high-quality movie with audio in the popular MPEG4 format. Just press, shoot and enjoy the movie. Select any previously recorded movie file and resume shooting to create a movie up to 60 seconds long. Share both photo and movie files with other IrSimple-ready cameras and devices. Auction Mode stitches multiple photos into a single image for easy uploading to your favorite auction site.

Not worth $60

It's really hard to get good photos with this camera and it has some major distortion problems. Pricing it over $70 is a stretch, and over $200, how absurd unless it's pristine and for a gallery of camera types of some sort. You can expect every picture you get from this thing, to, half the time be plagued with graininess. It's very poor in low light conditions and the lens is easy to scratch. Look elsewhere for a low budget quality camera.

Was OK......When it worked

It appears from looking around the net that these cameras have a common problem. They simply fail to turn on which makes them an ugly paperweight. Mine worked for about one week.

A Great Camera for the money.

This Fuji uses standard SD cards which makes it just as handy as any other camera (Fuji finally got away from expensive xD cards). I like the feel of the camera because it doesn't feel like a cube of platic, it feels like a real camera should. I have had no problems with the picture quality the other reviewers mentioned. I also find it quite easy to navigate. It seems to have good battery life and has been very reliable and inexpensive to use since it takes only 2 AA batteries. I would rate this camera at 4.5 stars.

Awesome Outdoor Photos, But Indoor Photos Takes Some Tweeking

I purchased this camera after having a Fujifilm FinePix 2650 2MP Digital Camera w/ 3x Optical Zoom for years that I LOVED and it took awesome photos with very little effort (I'm very much the amatuer photographer).

I've been a bit disappointed in this newer Fujifilm camera, however, as it's not so easy to use.

Taking outdoor photos is a breeze. And with 8 megapixels, the shots are very clear and full of detail. However, you can't just click and shoot with indoor photos; to get the best quality you really must read and understand the users manual. Even then, it still takes a great deal of tweeking to get the perfect photo.

I highly recommend purchasing a memory card as the internal disk does not hold many photos.
