Fujifilm Finepix S9000 9MP Digital Camera with 10.7x Wide Optical Zoom

The Fujifilm works great. The settings differ from landscape, to people. It is very free and easy to use. I like the macro features that include super macro. It has intense picture quality! However I did find that you can not set the aperture in manual mode.. Also, and PLEASE read this, the camera takes AA batteries. I did not like that what so ever. The thing ate through my batteries, and my wallet. So I went out and I bought an enercell rechargeable battery set and it really changed how I felt about this camera. If you decide this camera is right for you I strongly advise you buy this. It charges in 15 minutes and lasts days compared to regular 1 day batteries. But aside from the batteries I would also like to say that the presettings are pretty decent. They work for what I like to photograph and it pays off, however I just prefer to use the manual mode, it is more maneuverable and lets you do more with the shot. The noise is pretty good on it, its not to bad, and the built in flash is good. I just bought an external flash though. (works better). Another VERY good thing on the S9000 is the pop out screen! That screen has helped me more then I can imagine. A couple days ago I went to a photo shoot and I had to use my mini tripod to capture a low ground shot and I was afraid my back was going to kill me for the next week, but I popped out the screen and it just made my experience better and simpler. All together I loved this camera.Here is the link to the charger.[...]
First let me comment that Amazon is as reliable as it can get to shopping on the internet. Amazing service and 100% reliability of the products they ship.My most recent purchase of S9000 was a good decision based on the reviews on Amazon and other popular digital camera sites.All of you reading this have read countless reviews on this product and I agree with all of those reviews (I went through each of them on the internet!). Here is my review added to the countless ones out there1. S9000 flash has a good reach of 8 to 10 feet in a moderately lighted room. As with all cameras do not be too close to the subject and get washed out image.2. S9000 macro is truly usable and good. I have taken pictures 2 inches from subject in Manual Mode. Works well sharp with no fringing3. The camera\'s zoom is its selling point. 10X zoom are the best you can get without carrying interchangeable lenses and a DSLR.4. The camera can take both Compact flash and XD card together at the same time. I have them installed. A quick trip through the menu will help you configure either one of them and make them active.5. There is a \"function\" key \"F\" on the camera, Very helpful in a lot of ways be sure to ready about it in the manual to properly use the functionality.6. AE lock feature use is something else which all users should know beforehand to get proper results. (Even help full in automatic mode)7. The camera is smaller than a DSLR both in size and grip. Comparisons with stats on various sites are misleading. It fits well in my hand and is ideal for persons with kids and families. It is a quick draw and shoots with all DSLR features loaded in.8. A Hand! Figure comes up on the display showing that your shot is prone to shake. A very good feature. The camera tells you when to hold still.9. As with all cameras\' adequate lighting needs to exist when zooming with a certain degree of stability in your ability to hold the camera still. The camera does have anti blur with faster shutter speeds to compensate the shake but has no built in \"anti shake\" tech. This is not a disadvantage but awareness issue.10. The camera is fast in switch on and very fast at storing all the 9MB mode snaps. Rapid snaps never had a problem either with Compact flash or XD card.RAW mode shooting \"NEVER\" done most of the time generates an 18MB image. It takes 4-5 seconds to store on a XD type H card.I sue it only to take still nature shots and later choose what I want out of a software editor11. The low light grainy image is visible in very low light conditions without flash. Higher ISO\'s is not the problem by itself. Using Corel, Photoshop, etc you can remove pixilation.12. Finally the camera batteries need to be 2500amph. I use Energizer(tm) gives me 200 clicks with good amount of flash\' dispersed in-between. Remember this camera does not have motorized zoom, it is like a DSLR, thus you actually save on your battery.Conclusion is that is worth the money. It is also extremely easy to handle and light. Its features are excellent and out of the box it shoots excellent photos. If you read the manual you will be able to use it like a DSLR even better. As I would like to say \"A tool is only as good and as skillful as the artist wielding it\"
A few years back when I decided to get into the digital world I started with Minolta\'s Dimage 5. It was a good camera, but ate up batteries way too fast - 35-40 shots was all I could get. I then decided on Fuji\'s 3800, and what a pleasant surprise. It was only 3MP but the shots were very good. After a while I upgraded to the S5000 and again I was pleasantly surprised. Fuji came through again. Thinking that 6MP would give me an even better pictures I purchased the S7000 at 6.3MP. What a great camera that is!! I\'ve had it for the past two years and haven\'t been sorry one bit. But I got antsy once again and started shopping around. I decided that because I had such luck with Fuji up to this point that the S9000 was the way to go. If I could get the amazing pictures I\'m getting with the 7000 at 6.3MP then 9MP should produce a picture that would be hard to believe. Wrong!!! I\'m not here to argue with those that think the 9000 is the finest camera on the market, nor am I trying to convince those that think it\'s the worst camera ever to change their mind. I can only tell you that I\'m disappointed. What I love is sharp, crisp detail in the photos I produce. The 7000 does that while the 9000 doesn\'t.I spent this past weekend shooting the same scenes with the 7000 and 9000 for comparisons. I printed eight of the scenes, without any retouching, and placed them side by side, then asked four different people which of the photos they liked. Not one of the photos shot with the 9000 were selected. In each and every case the shots by the 7000 was the ones they preferred. The zoom was a disaster. The 9000 could get in closer; however, the shots were miserable.All I\'m saying is if you\'re looking for super detail in your pictures this may not be the camera for you. I couldn\'t rate this as low and one or two stars because it does have some good features, but for me those features don\'t mean a thing without the detail I\'m expecting. That\'s why I couldn\'t go further than three stars. I\'m disappointed in Fuji and a little hesitant about future purchases. Too bad because it\'s been great up to this purchase.
