Отзывы о Фотоаппарат Fujifilm Instax Mini 12

I ordered 2 batteries from Powerplanet to go away on holiday, to act as a backup and extra power for my camera. Great product as they work so well and Powerplanet are a great company to do business with, so prompt and excellent value for money, thanks!

I bought this camera in November 08 to upgrade from my Fujifilm A800 for only £75! Great bargain! The camera is great if you are a beginner. I'm not quite good with manual controls yet and instead of having a huge camera like a Canon or a Nikon, this works better for me to play with. My only problem with it is that as full zoom it's a bit grainy. Other than that is a great camera for beginners, light, easy to carry around. I love it so far!

--Update--
a year and a half into using this camera and I still like it. Sometimes taking perfect pictures can be difficult cause I need to use a lot of manual controls which I'm not good at but.. that's why i bought this camera for, to learn using them. In a quick comparison with my Canon SX210, I'd say the Fuji has a better zoom quality evident on the shots, with nicely blurred backgrounds and less noise than the SX210. The only reason I got a new compact was cause even though the S5800 is not a big camera to carry around it can be a pain when u want to take some quick shots. Other than that I still like it very much.

Very easy to use and gives brilliant pictures. The macro features are really useful. If I have something on a machine hard to read or distinguish , I take a photograph and enlarge it on the computer.

I read all the other reviews at Amazon for this camera and not one mentioned the time delay from when you press the shutter to when the camers actually captures the picture, truely awuful. I bought it to take pictures of my 2 year old daughter and have taken about 100 pictures, i will be lucky if i have 5 decent pictures as the camera is just not quick enough to 'capture the moment'

To start with I'm normally a DSLR user but I wanted something a little smaller for those occaisions when carrying the "big camera" wasn't practical. I didn't want a compact & I still wanted some quality & creativity so I needed a "halfway house". This camera fits the bill perfectly. Small & light but with enough features & modes to keep even a "photo junky" like me happy. Picture quality is great & when images are captured in the 16:9 modes they look fantastic on a large LCD tv (that's saying something coming from me because I'm very fussy!). The quality of the video in movie mode is very good & also looks good when played back on the tv.

If I have one "gripe" it's that the zoom control operates to fast & this makes small adjustments in focal length very difficult. That's the only real reason it didn't get the fifth star.

All in all I'm very happy with the camera & I shall use much more than I originaly intended.

I've now had this camera for a couple of weeks and have to say it's so far so good. Having owned a couple of smaller Fuji models, I umm-ed and ahh-ed over whether to go for a larger bodied camera or just another small compact that could easily fit in my pocket. In the end, I eventually decided to go for the larger one on the assumption that if I ever want to get more into photography I'd need something with a little more "horse power" than a 3x optical zoom. It'll probably never happen but there's always time left yet. (I've also now bought a Samsung NV8 to take care of my compact needs which I'll review separately).

While it feels large next to my compacts, when stood alongside my old 35mm Canon EOS 700 from way back in the early 90's, it's tiny by comparison and it makes you realise just how small gadgets have become over the last two decades. However, although it feels nice and solid, it is still reasonably chunky and heavy and you certainly do have to wear it round your neck which can become rather a drag after a while...

The photos I've taken so far are perfectly okay but then again I'm a philistine and will readily admit that I don't have an eye for professional photography. However, neither are most other people and you're almost certainly going to look the part at weddings and parties unless there's a real pro in the house! It doesn't have red eye reduction (which I thought it might when I bought it) but so far I've only managed to take one red eye photo of my daughter who I was beginning to think was borne of the devil judging by my previous cameras! The batteries - I use 2000mh rechargeables - seem to last for ever even with fairly high use of the zoom and my insistence on taking three shots of everything I choose to shoot. If there is to be a negative, it's the small fact that the cable link is yet another non-standard size USB one (I now have three Fuji cameras all with different size cables!) meaning yet another cable to store safely.

So while this isn't exactly a review - there are professionals who can do that properly elsewhere - I'll just offer my opinion that this is a very nice camera which I certainly don't regret buying - something you can't always say these days with so much over-hyped, over-priced garbage around. There's definitely room for my skills to grow with this camera and I'd just better get out there and start making use of everything on the S5800 that I'm sure is idly waiting for me there ready to use.

Got this about a year and a half ago...for about $130 I think. I would definitely NOT pay the current price.

Pros:
-It took pretty good photos off the bat.
-I like the speed between shots--it's pretty fast, great for taking pics of my toddler.
-Decent in low light, not awesome
-big screen

Cons:
-durability is fairly non-existent. I suppose this can be assumed for most of these small cameras, I'm not super careful, but not like I'm throwing it around either. It fell about 10 months after I bought it--we were trying to take a photo with the timer...it landed on the open lens and shifted it. We were able to put it back...but this has happened probably twice more...and since then, it increasingly has problems focusing, etc.
-toggle for zooming broke about a year ago--just randomly, not through an obvious drop or anything. It still 'works' but it's like hanging on by a thread, so to zoom you have to kind of hold it in. For what I paid for it, I didn't want to pay to have it fixed. It broke when it was probably still under warranty, but the only way to have them fix it was to mail it in and be without a camera for a long time.
-battery...it started out fine, I could go days or through a ton of photos in one day without having to plug it in. Now--maybe 100-150 shots, if that, or 30 minutes of shooting...it's dead. Really annoying, I have to carry the charger everywhere, or plan on not taking a lot of photos.

I am very pleased with the camera and the services provided by the vendor. This item was selected after a lot of searching and met my requirements in every respect and with an exceptionally good price.

this is an excellent little case it does the job it is a nice snug fit , with a litle inside pocket for sd card / usb lead when not in use it hangs on the cam strap by a little clip, the leather is also a good quality.
Note this is not a carry all case it is a case to protect between shoots!

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.

This review is for the 8000fd which has been superseded by the 10MP s8100fd, but with the exception of the CCD sensor itself, they are exactly the same. First off let me say that it seems that a lot of the negative reviews concerning this camera are about things other than the camera itself. Filter through those and you will see this is a very good camera. And as for Fuji Customer service, I dropped my camera on the last day of a trip overseas and broke it. I sent it to the Fuji repair center and they promptly exchanged it for a new one. Yes, I had to pay $75, but it was my fault and Fuji was very fast - I had the new one a week later.

As mentioned in the title, this camera is more than a point-and-shoot model. If all you're looking to do is set it on Auto and shoot away, you will get VERY GOOD pictures most of the time, but to really get GREAT photos, you need to delve into the program modes. More complex certainly and if you're not willing to learn then this camera will go under-utilized.

The best feature of this camera is the focal length with the 18x optical zoom. This allows you to frame the photo properly before taking it and not have to crop much afterwards. The result: higher quality photos. YOU can capture scenes with 18x that you can't from most consumer digital cameras, and image stabilization makes it possible to get clear photos.

This camera is positioned at the higher end of the consumer line -appealing to those who want the smaller size and price of a consumer digital camera, but want many of the features found in prosumer models. In that aspect, the s8000fd hits the sweet spot very well. There are a lot of features that will appeal to those looking to be more creative.

I have taken some 500+ photos with this camera and have been very pleased with the results. I have used the photos for enlargements up to 11x14. There is some additional, noise when shooting in lower-light conditions, but the majority of the time this can be componsated for or eliminated by adjusting the camera's flexible exposure settings.

At the risk of being redundant, let me say that this camera has more features than a good 95% of people want or will even take the time to use. But given a chance this is a good camera and since it's been replaced with the 8100fd, it is a great deal at the sub-300 price-point.

This is my second FujiFilm SLR-like camera and I have been pleased with both.

Decided to upgrade from my Kodak 3mp + 3x zoom before my holiday to Egypt.Glad I did - results have been stunning. Camera looks good , and is surprisingly easy to hold and use,even one-handed. Took a bit of time to go through the instructions,which are not difficult to pick up, although almost 1000 shots later, there are still options /facilities I have yet to explore. The large viewfinder is great,(although inclined to attract fingerprints),and the onscreen crop+copy lets me preview and select/reject
shots easily, even with my fading eyesight.
The picture quality is great, and the 8mps makes for great clarity even at high zoom. The zoom is easy to use and the anti shake setting ensures that even 10x zoom remains clear in moderate light conditions.
I was totally enthusiastic until taking it to a wedding on a dull day at the weekend, when I really had to use the flash extensively for the first time. Although the camera can take quite reasonable pictures in low light without flash,I set it both to auto flash ,then forced flash to make sure I got clarity in key bride and groom shots. These proved erratic, with the camera "choosing" to take the shots without flash,at slower shutter speeds, with the results being a bit unclear and fuzzy.
Luckily I had my Kodak in my pocket as backup, and the contrast between the 2 cameras in this situation was striking with the Kodak well on top in terms of clarity and colour tone. Think I'll need to go back to the manual to see what can be done.
Nevertheless, I'm still delighted with the camera which gives great outdoor shots with stunning zoom facilities at almost SLR standards , for an extremely reasonable price (which has just dropped a further 20% since I got it.)

The leather camera case was bought as a gift for use with a Fuji Finepix S1500. The case fits the camera perfectly - as it should. The leather is soft and of good quality. The recipient of the gift is very pleased with the case and would recommend this as a purchase.

This is a very feature rich camera with a surprisingly good quality lense that makes taking great photographs easy. I love the zoom, quick startup and the screen. Too many good features to list here, but those are my favourite.

Much about this camera is great, but it is seriously flawed by its inaccuracy in handling reds - seem to come out as pink. Never had a similar problem with any of the many other digital cameras I've owned and used over the years. Astonished that you can buy in camera in 2009 with such a significant shortcoming.

Bought this as a replacement battery for my Fuji Finepix Z1 and it works just fine. Battery life is good, like how the original battery was when I first got the camera. Would recommend for anyone looking to replace a knackered battery.

Great case purchased for the Fujifilm S1500. Snug fitting but ideal if you dont want anything too bulky.
Would recommend.

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.

This review is based on my real-world experience with the Fuji S5 Pro and not number crunching, or high-tech analyzing.
I've owned a Nikon D200 since they first appeared and absolutely enjoyed every minute of researching, learning, and shooting. I've been playing with SLR's and a few DSLR's since the mid 1980's. I've taken night classes in digital imaging and all the other related stuff so I'm somewhat familiar with photography. I've wanted to see what all the "5 stars," super reviews, etc. was going down with the Fuji S5 Pro. A neighbor of mine opted to for-go his purchase of a D300 and buy an S5 Pro....I told him "are you nuts!!" From 3 months of his S5 Pro he showed me a number of people, nature, and landscape shots. I asked how much PP he did to them and he assured me...."nothing, not a thing."
The portraits looked better than professional, the landscapes looked postcard ready, and the nature shots were stunning. Granted, every photographer does not use the same settings and techniques, and of course there are variables to everything you compare, but I couldn't figure how he shot such unrealistic, beautiful images right out of the camera. After much debate, I took the plunge and got one. I damned near became obsessed with learning as much as I could and practiced on almost everything I could. After about 2 months.....

NOW...IMO REAL WORLD REVIEW:

1. The dynamic range, color, low noise/high ISO and detail is really remarkable.
2. I like the familiar, solid D200 "feel" about the camera.
3. "Fast" (fps) is something one must determine based on applications;
Weddings, portraits, walkaround, etc.....yes, following child down a soccer field with finger held down on shutter release....no.
4. Big RAW files yes, but tolerable with a 4-8MB CF card. Transferring files to your PC needs a bit of patience even with a big PC.
5. Reputable company (Fujifilm), contender in the DSLR market, good product support...no brainer.
6. Good glass...a must.. cheap-out and the S5 Pro outputs garbage (I've tried this with a borrowed lens).
7. "Good photos come from good photography"...true to an extent, having and learning with the right gear to obtain "good photos"...more realistic.

My Summary: My goal is to achieve the best image quality from the camera
that I've spent my hard earned money as possible. Looking exclusively on buying the S5 Pro for "application" purposes can be very subjective (IMO). The Fuji S5 Pro works for me as my "all around" camera. Will I sell my D200? Do I now need 2 cameras?...Soon time will tell. Do I like what I see from the S5 Pro....absolutely!!!

If you travel alot, just like to take pictures, the families designated photographer and cameraman, or just even some one with an artistic eye like myself this camera is definately for you.

This is a very solid buy for anyone looking for a good mid-level camera. Perfect for people who take lots of photos, ranging from snap shots to high quality memories and everything in between. More than enough for an average guy like myself, but not quite everything an avid photographer would need.

I bought the Fujifilm FinePix v10 in mid October of '06. I put it through 3 months and 4 holidays worth of use, paces and light abuse, and now I feel confident enough to write a review about it. I'm so satisfied it's hard not to be bias, but I will say that this is the first Fujifilm product I've ever owned, so keep that in mind.

With a little bit of camera expirience I was able to use this camera out of the box and after it's first charge. Like all gadgets it takes a little while to really run through it's abilities and figure out what it can do. The instructions are nice and easy to follow for begginers, but if you have the slightest expirience with digital cameras, you won't even need them.

This camera is pretty small, very light and easily kept on your person, in any pocket. Think, just bigger and heavier and thicker than a deck of playing cards. THe LCD screen is AMAZING. I thought I would feel the need for the old school eye-piece for close ups or landscape shots, but so far this screen hasn't failed to impress me. Likewise with the camera's push button play back feature, i feel like i'm carrying a photo-album in my pocket as much as a camera. not only do i like showing my friends some of my favorite shots with it, but the camera itself tends to attract more attention.

The other thing I'd like to point out is just how quick this little guy is. Very little start-up time. With out a stop watch, I make it a 2 count and it's on and ready to fire. Play-back mode is 1 button away, and instantly pops up, you can't miss a photo-op, press the shutter once and you're instantly ready to take another picture. I tend to leave lots and lots of pictures on it, as I went ahead and upgraded to a 512mb memory stick, but even with the stock memory card, plugging into your PC has never been easier, and I would Imagine the same on a Mac. Fujifilm provides software that's almost too simplified for myself, but allows to auto upload your photos. Don't want the software? No problem, Fuji built this little devil with Drag-n-drop abilities to sort, delete or copy your pictures. (you could even use it as a flash drive and bring your work home, it won't play mp3's but i've used it to transport those as well... any files really as long as they fit) This feature, on modern gadgets and media devices is priceless.

The only bad things I can say about the camera: It's zoom could be a little bit better for landscape and scenery shots. But as is, it does just fine for almost everything I use it for. Also, it's amazingly cool LCD screen is also it's Achilles' Heel. If you scratch or crack this screen, it's game over, especially with out a back up view finder. So be sure to register and fill out that warrany card, just in case. and that's that. I've got nothing bad to say about this camera.

I will wrap up by saying. If you're an avid photographer, this is a good camera but you might want to aim for something that will let you custom adjust all your settings to take the quality of photo you need. But on the otherside, if you just use a camera for quick snap shots, this baby will do it, but it's overkill, you'll get you're money's worth in the long run, but cheaper, smaller cameras will do for you.

However, for everyone in-between, If you're in the market, I can't say enough good things about this camera. Period.

I purchased this camera for its long zoom and have not been pleased. I enjoy taking photos of birds but this camera has a hard time focusing on an object that is far off. If I want to take a picture of a bird that is at the end of the zoom range and there is a tree in the background that takes up more of the frame, the camera will focus on the tree and the subject in the center will be out of focus.

The camera is near useless indoors as any picture taken of people will be blurry if the subject moves the least little bit and all photos have been extremely noisy when taken on the auto mode.

I have taken some beautiful photos with this camera but not without lots of deleted photos in the process. I am now looking at purchasing another "super zoom" camera to replace this one.

This was bought for my son for xmas and he is absolutely delighted with it.
Excellent delivery and the quality of the pictures is amazing.

Im really surprised about that camera.I wish the battery that came with it would last longer but its not bad at all.
While im still in the process to figure out every option that i have with that camera...im finding out all new things on the way that are so interresting.

I love the zoom.I took pictures on a playground and set so far away from it and when i zoomed it the picture came out really nice.
The video is good as well.
When you got the flash open and you got it on video mode...what happens is what seems to be a little light on the front turns on...and is super bright so that the object that u looking at is shined on by the light. thats makes it really fun specially when you film at night so you can really use that option.
if the flash is closed it still takes good videos at day time just when its dark..well..it stays dark... *haha*

the camera is really fast in taking one picture after another...so every like 3-4sec it lets you take a pic at the highest pixel solution.which is a big improfement to my old camera.

im still working on all the options as i said but im slowely getting there.

What i can say at the end is...
...if you really like taking pictures...and you have lots of fun with it but you want something with a good zoom and lots of options to explore..its a camera to consider to buy.
I really enjoy it....

oh,one more thing.... I find it really upsetting that it is so super hard to find a battery for that camera. apperently you cant buy it in the stores around my area. Nobody got a battery for that camera. and in the internet,well... not too many fair and good looking options either...so i wish that was a little different.

i wish everybody fun with the camera...

be good...

I was pleased that Amazon offered this product because the case I purchased when I originally bought the camera was much too large and bulky. The camera fits really snugly in this one but still leaves room for a small cleaning cloth and spare SD card. it even has a small snap-on loop which I am using to attach the case to the camera-strap. Great buy!
