Отзывы о Фотоаппарат Fujifilm Instax Mini 12

I purchased the S5800 last weekend(6/7/08) Have just received it. I must say it was very well packaged. It arrived when Amazon said it would, outstanding service and the price was unbleiveable. Amazon used the Home Network Delivery Couriers, which was great, you could track the parcel online. Having read some of the other reviews I was abit concerned about the manual being in French. I opened the box and found the manual and all other paperwork was in English, thank god, although the wife can speak and read french. The camera was very easy to setup, and within a couple of minutes I was ready to snap my first victim!. The 8.0 mega pixels raally make a difference from my old Fuji, being only 2.0 mega pixels. You can see a real depth and more sharper image. Its very comfortable to hold, with the capture button and zoom switch being in the same place. Its also nice to able to switch between the view finder and the 2.5" screen. I would not hesitate to recommend this camera or any of the Fuji range. One tip use the XD card the images seem more sharper and more depth of colour.

I ready through a number of reviews (a LOT of them), and could live with the limitations described there (mostly about the lens at extreme zooms). And I did not want to spend $70 for a replacement Li-ion battery in case I needed one, so the Fuji looked like a good option.

First impressions weren't bad : good menu system (though I never really understood why the F-button functions and the Menu were so confusing). The lens did extend longer than expected, but I could live with that.

But when taking the first pictures, I was truly disappointed. The images looked grainy, unsharp, undetailed. Like a camera from several generations ago. I then started experimenting with all the settings, abandoned the AUTO, tried every imaginable manual/high-quality/Low ISO setting, but I felt the results remained poor. I then compared with my little Canon Ixus 55, compared identical pictures... and found the Canon - smaller, lower Pixels,..) came out WAY better, WAY sharper, WAY more natural.
And that was just on low ISO. Going to ISO 200 and above? Forget it, quality was so terrible, you thought you'd be looking at one of those VGA cameras they give away as business gifts.

I tried and tried again to make the pics look good - in bright light, customized settings, everything... but again, disapointment....

Oh, I also noticed that at full lenght zoom, the camera refused to focus on objects 2-3 meter further. And there is an unacceptable amount of purple fringing.

So, after 2 weeks, I sold it, and bought the Panasonic FZ 18. And, though that too isn't perfect, at least that's acceptable, qualitywise!

I bought this as a gift for my mother. She really likes it and it is definitely a great, small, and portable device. However, some of the menu options could be easier to navigate, and from what I have seen from other reviews, it is true that the corners of the pictures are darker; otherwise picture is good. It comes with a rechargable battery, which is a plus. Overall an average product. Great for beginning and intermediate digital camera users.

This camera is ideal for someone who would like a straight-forward camera with a range of basic functions. It is easy to use and produces good results. I would, however, give two recommendations. Firstly, use a memory card. Secondly,buy some rechargeable batteries.
Fujifilm FinePix A920 Digital Camera - Silver (9MP, Super CCD, 4x Optical Zoom) 2.7" LCD

This is the perfect camera if you cannot quite afford the SLR ones. It is compact,easy to use and has a great optical zoom so you don't need to carry extra lens around with you to get a perfect shot.

The camera is superb and takes brilliant pictures. Easy to use. Very pleased with the quality of the product. Would recommend.

The way I test the quality of a digital camera is to view its photographs on a computer at 100 percent. (After all, what good is a 8 megapixel camera if one could merely zoom the pictures from a 4 megapixel camera to 200 percent and get the same quality.) I find that my new Fujifilm FinePix S8000fd takes grainy (blurry) pictures. I took a number of pictures, all using a tripod for stabilization, and they all turned out grainy. (I used the Auto function to allow the camera to choose the "best" setting.)

The camera is light, but that is because where most quality camera manufactures use metal (usually an aluminum alloy) in the barrel (zoom lens) of the camera, Fujifilm uses plastic. And the plastic lens has around 125 thousandths movement from side to side when extended.

Fuji used to mean quality. I've owned several over the years, starting with the one I bought while serving in Vietnam. I wonder if Fujifilm is the same company. If so, the company seems to have lessened their standards.

Too bad a person couldn't "try before you buy," like some software manufactures offer.

This case is a great fit for my camera. It is durable and waterproof and has a handy carrying strap. Love it!

I am a complete novice at photography. Know nothing!! I needed a camera to take close up pictures of miniatures (1:12 scale) and this fab camera does the job better than I expected!!

I mostly use "Auto" and this does for ALL my needs.

If you are an amateur but need something more than a point and shoot - this is for you.

It is so easy to use. I love it!

THIS IS MY THIRD FUJI CAMERA I HAVE OWN THE 7100 9100 AND S100FS ALL ARE GREAT BUT THE S100FS OUT PERFORM. I HAVE HAD THIS CAMERA FOR OVER A YEAR AND IT WORKS GREAT NO PROBLEM SO FAR. GREAT PICS. GOOD BUY.

It does what it says, great features for such a compact camera. The batteries last for ages & thats when using the flash !! I bought rechargables & have not had to use them yet. Picture quality is excellent, great value for money, well impressed.

Nice sturdy little camera case. My Fuji Z20d fits perfectly in it and protects it from scratches or damage

I purchased this camera with confidence due to the positive reviews I read on it. I did however, return it because once in my hands I found that the LCD was much too small for me. A good product though.

I've been wanting a small, economical point/click camera that takes good pictures with the minimum ammount of blur. That's exactly what I got. Camera is easy to use, very intuitive and has an unusually long battery life (I've been able to use it daily for about 4-5 weeks between charges). The pictures are sharp, I've been able to take beautiful action photos without hand or motion blur. For a basic camera without any frills, bells or whistles I deffinately recommend it. It's small and light enough to keep in my purse on a daily basis.

My one qualm is that the software it came with sucks. It won't work properly on my new computer (and I don't have an old PC to test it on) and crashes when I try to upload photos from the camera. My PC does have a memory slot reader so I've been able to get around the problem without difficulty, but if the software and cabling are key for you, you might want to look into an alternative.

I bought this as a replacement for an olympus compact. I wanted better optical zoom and some more features
The camera works well, pity about the batteries, it would be better if it was rechargeable but battery life is OK.
I would be happpy to recommend it for a real amateur like me.

I ordered the camera a week ago and it arrived quickly. Great camera for those looking for a step up from a point and shoot regular digital. Easy to use and set up, lightweight and easy to hold versus many others in the same category. I would recommend this camera to someone who is looking for for more than the traditional store camera but who is a novice at serious photography. A perfect starter camera for users looking to learn a bit more about photography.

Brilliant camera for the price. Easy to use and upload. For once a digital camera with a part of it that you can actually hold onto,for us types that were used to slr cameras .Many options available if you wish to do more than just take a picture

Purchased as a Christmas present for my husband who isn't very knowledgable about photography, he found it easy to use for the first time. The LCD screen is a good size to view the subject matter and pictures are easy to upload to the PC. Excellent value.

Yes, a DSLR gives you more flexibility and perfect pictures even in less than ideal conditions. But if you don't want to haul all those interchangeable lenses around all the time, or you just don't need all the bells and whistles, this is a great replacement. Don't get me wrong - this machine has settings gallore you can fiddle with. But you don't have to. I've done semi-pro shooting for some time in the past, but now with a growing family, seldomly find time to do any serious shoting anymore. What I need is a camera with outstanding picture quality and a big lens to carry to family functions, take pictures of the kids and occasionally shoot a bird, or a flower, or a pretty landscape. This camera does the trick. And don't give too much attention to all those rumors about "purple fringing" - the picture quality is outstanding, and if you really must shoot at very low level light conditions, change back to the DSLR.
So, to sum it up - great picture quality, settings gallore, big lens. Great camera.

I have had the S5 pro for a little over a year. I have seen side-by-side results compared with Nikon D200 and D300 and Canon 12.1's and the Olympus flagship. Shooting in RAW the Fuji is just as sharp as any 10 to 12 megapixel camera out there. I don't like the less sharp standard settings. But what makes the Fuji chip special is the color. It's dead on; rich, finely textured, true. The design which mimicks the rods and cones of the eye works. Period. All the SLR's that have come out in the last 1 or 2 years are amazing. But the Fuji S5 still holds its own on color reproduction which probably is expected since Fuji is of course a long time leader in film manufacturing.

I love this camera!
The features and menus are both easy to find and use.
It is small and lightweight but it feels well-built and durable.
I have tried the camera both indoors and outdoors with great results, it has the auto function but if you try using the the settings you may obtain better results.
I uploaded 3 pictures I took featuring my cat, and I must say I was amazed at the detail level obtained by the camera.
If you are on a budget this is definitely a great purchase.

Purchased this camera a few days ago (from 6th Ave, through Amazon - VERY fast shipping!) as a replacement for my DSLR. The DSLR (Canon XTi) makes better pictures for sure, but the convenience, the tiltable LCD, the wide range (28-400) of the lens, the ability to make movies, and the large CCD are good reasons (for me) to drop the DSLR for this one. (why in this digital age do we still need SLR like setups????)
I originally purchased my Canon as a replacement for my Sony F828 (unfortunately, Sony does not make any camera anymore that have the great design of the F828!), and I found myself struggling going backwards in time - missing the convenience of the F828 (tilting the body/lens) badly.
After doing a lot of research I ended up with the S100FS.
I can highly recommend this camera if you're (like me) in need of a good camera, but you just do not want to deal with the limitations of a DSLR.

Have really loved using this camera. Even I can manage to use the basic operations, and when time permits, I am going to look at using the finer options. Easy to use. Great that it take rechargeable batteries.

great camera, now on my third fuji, would not buy any other make. highly recommend this camera and Amazon
