| I purchased this camera to replace my Finepix S5100. Mind you, there was nothing wrong with my 5 year old S5100. I just felt the need for something newer. The S5100 was a 4MP camera - the S1000FD is 10MP. I loved my S5100 and it did right by me for years, so I stuck with Fuji. It's still in the family...I gave it to my daughter and she's using it now. (Still ticking after 5 years!) I am not a professional photographer, I just like to take pictures and I don't know a lot about manual settings and such. All I know is, I keep the camera on AUTO and 99% of my pictures come out perfect. The camera does have face finder technology and for the most part, I don't have to fix red eye manually anymore. The large LCD screen is great. Battery usage is normal. (Invest in rechargeables! Save a fortune in batteries!) The zoom is decent, but the real test will be from my seats at Yankee Stadium! I'll update on this one later on. The S1000FD also accepts both SD and XD cards. I am able to use the 1Gb and 2Gb cards from my S5100. I purchased 4Gb SD cards for my Creative Zen and can use them with the S1000FD as well. I don't have issues with close-ups coming out blurry as some have complained about. The camera is a step up from the typical point and shoot cameras and a step (or two) below the expensive SLR's. It's much lighter than the S5100 and smaller. Check out the pics I posted which were taken with the camera. I don't think you'll be disappointed in this camera if you get it. |
Fuji I Love it

I love the feel and the size of the camera. The ability to choose the settings most used and save them is nice also. Low light pictures are very good. The quality of the pictures so far is great.Can't beat this ZOOM either.
The larger size Lcd is also nice and the fact that you can turn it off and use the viewfinder, or lower the brightness is very much a help at conserving battery life.
Speaking of batteries the best part about them is they are available Everywhere.
So if your rechargeable AA goes dead you can pop in a store bought AA battery in a pinch.
Bottom line very very happy with my purchase.

After using now for a while here is an update..The camera is light weight has a powerful zoom and flash.Tripod may be needed if zoomed all the way out.
I have owned a fuji camera prior to this one and it had manual focus this does not . Poor judgement in my opinion camera would be much better with it.
The pictures I have taken for the most part were fantastic but there are ones that I could not get to focus and these were missed opportunities of some great wild life pictures. |
Pretty amazing features and value

It's unbelievable that you can now get a 10 Megapixel camera with 12x optical zoom for just over $200. Some surprising features include:
- the ability to do in-camera panoramas. The camera helps you position the 2nd and 3rd shots to match up correctly, but even when I do it hand-held, the result is amazingly seamless.
- exposure bracketing with several choices up to -1 to +1 EV.
- several white balance modes, and of course you can preview what the WB will look like before you take the shot.
WHAT I LIKE:
- small, lightweight (smallest of the super-zooms, from what I've read)
- ranges from a simple point & shoot to a versatile, customizable camera.
- Anything you need to learn about photography before you progress to DSLRs can be learned on this camera (manual exposure, aperture priority, white balance, etc.)
- rich colors in Chroma mode, over-saturated but OK.
- you can pre-set any of several custom modes in an easily accessible way.
- Surprisingly low noise results at ISO 64. Personally I would avoid anything over 100, so it's best in bright light or with flash.
- I never have to change a lens or worry about dust on the sensor chip.
- Fun and easy to use, with lots of features to play with.
- The in-camera 3-photo panorama stitching is impressive.
- For about 1/2 the price, I get twice the camera I could 3 years ago. - A great value.
- you can review your shot with histogram exposure information, if you like.
WHAT I DON'T LIKE:
- It has even more shutter lag than my old Fujifilm S5100 from 2005. You generally get the moment AFTER the moment you were trying to capture.
- very noisy and high color fringing at higher ISOs. |
GREAT

I just got this camera to replace my old FinePix S3000. The S1000fd is a tremendous camera. I love the large LCD viewing area which is great
I'm still experimenting with all the features but I can say for sure this is well worth the price I paid. Do some homework and shop it for the best price...I've seen it as low as sub $200.
The multitude of manual and automatic settings allows you to really enjoy taking photos. This is certainly not the typical point-and-shoot digital camera and it borders on the "semi-pro" level of digital SLR style cameras.
It's physical size will surprise you but don't be fooled by it's size...this camera rocks! |
