Отзывы о Фотоаппарат Fujifilm Instax Mini 12

I have used this Camera for a couple of years now and am constantly impressed by the quality of the pictures and the video. I am not a Camera expert at all and couldn't tell you all about the various features the Camera has. What I can say is that I go to a lot of concerts and take photos and I've always been blown away by how good they come out.
Many people seem to have problems with the battery life, my suggestion is to get Lithium batteries. They have lasted up to five concerts before I have needed to change them. That's pretty good seeing that I often take between 200-300 pictures a concert (and a couple of videos as well).

My old digital camera broke, so I picked this one up as a last minute replacement before a trip. Got it based on price and reviews. I like photos and taking them, but am not a photographer. Looking to document adventures in my life more than do anything artistic.

This camera is easy to use. Was able to do everything I needed to do without reading the manual. Plugged it in my computer (Mac) and iPhoto came up and did everything I needed it to do. Easy as pie! And I am not a technical person, by the way. :)

What amazed me was the great color my photos has. Really bright, really sharp. Made me look like a much better photographer than I am.

Good size. Not the smallest, but comfortable to carry around with you, in a pocket or purse. Display is large enough to tell what is going on, although it's good to have a bit of shade for easy reading.

The last couple of cameras I have purchased have been Nikon. After the great experience with this one, I am definitely getting a Fuji when this one goes out. I expect that to be a few years from now though because it has all the features I need, it's small, and it is well constructed.

This camera is excellent. I know it`s not from the top shelf but for me is great. Will recommend to everyone.

This case is just the right size to fit my camera and a spare battery. It fits in my pocket, and it opens quickly and easily. The carrying strap is a good length. I feel like the case is strong enough to protect the camera relatively well if I drop it, and it's still soft enough that I can sit down with it in my pocket without stabbing myself in the hip.

I purchased this camera for my son's 9th Birthday in January 2010 and was so impressed that I bought another for my daughter's 7th Birthday in February, both love photograph and the camera is the ideal size for little hands and the results are excellent, they find it easy to use and are very pleased with their gifts. As a keen photographer myself I am very impressed with the image quality of this camera, well worth the money. 10/10

I wanted a camera that gave me the greatest possible versatlity without the inconvenience of lens changing with a digital SLR. This requirement has certainly been met, and the range of functionality was an added bones. My purchase was made having seen an older version of this camera in use by a member of the family; I had a feeling the results would be impressive and they certainly are. The reviews I read warned about the lack of fine control of zoom; and this certainly does interfere with picture composition at times. The rate of zoom can't be adjusted as far as I can see, but that uncertainty comes from the fact that the product seemed to have been made for the continental (non-UK, EU market) and there was no English handbook in the pack, much to my frustration. I'm still trying to work out what the buttons do. OK, there was an English handbook on CD, but the printed version would have been a lot more useful to me.

We bought this camera about a month ago and really like it. It is a rather hefty camera but it is very versatile and can do just about anything you want a camera to do and do it very well. This camera has a face detection that really works- much better than our canon a570. It has an image stabilizer that allows you to take clear pictures at full zoom. The zoom ring is very smooth and is easy to compose the shot. The movie mode has a good picture and allows you to change zoom but is a little slow for the focus to catch up. With a 4gig sd card you can shoot movie for an hour. The flash on camera works alright for short distances but if you want to take pictures further out you have to add an external flash on the hotshoe. It has very useful settings on the mode dial and also has an slr styled command dial for iso setting, picture review,exposure compensation, and a host of other settings. It's really quite handy to use the command dial once you get used to it. About the only thing that seems to come up a little short is the battery. I'm guessing about 200-250 shots per battery charge. The image quality of this camera is at the top of the heap as far as point and shoot cameras. It is not as good as upper end slr cameras but I think it is better than the entry level slrs with kit lens. The lens on this fuji is really sharp from wide angle to full zoom and the digital zoom on this camera is very good. The lens does distort a little at wide angle but not as bad as the last camera we had.(a nikon d80 with 18-200 vr lens) Overall fuji has made a very solidly built camera and I would recommend it highly. Although this is not a cheap camera if you compare it with any camera with this kind of zoom range and image quality it stacks up rather well. Good job Fuji!!!

This camera is great! In terms of photo quality it's not going to best a bigger bulkier camera - but it's VERY good, I would say better than most (all?) subcompact cameras in its class. The best part about this camera is that it's quick. It's quickness is a combo of two factors, design and processor. The sliding lens cover doubles as the power switch - it's very easy to pull it out and slide back the cover very quickly. If you have the flash disabled it's ready instantaneously, with flash it'll take just a second to charge. The focusing mechanism functions very fast and the auto exposure is very robust and can handle many situations - faster and better than other cameras I've used (the exposure is notably better than the F series in regular or high light level situations)

The construction of the camera (build quality) is incredible at this price point. It's really built solid - and has the finish of a luxury product. I have it in the brown color and have gotten many compliments. The logo on the front also lights up at power up and when a photo is taken. It's a nice touch that adds just a little extra polish; you can disable it if you like (another nice touch!). I've used Sony's offerings in this class (W50, W80) and they feel cheap by comparison.

I bought this a couple months ago - it's not a super new camera at this point, but it's still very current - especially with the "lower" resolution - you avoid the noise and file sizes of those first generation cameras with the 10-12 megapixel CCDs. Plus you're not paying out the nose for that higher pixel count which really doesn't help the quality of your photos. There is a newer version of this model (Z10), but I'm not a big fan of where they're taking it design-wise.

I also have a Fuji F30. Obviously the image quality of that camera is better with its bounty of manual options - however the 'F' series isn't the greatest in terms of compactness. The F30 also bothered me - it takes a while to get a decent picture - even longer to get the ideal exposure, there's just a lot of fiddling to do to get the job done - something that's not always possible in every situation. The Z5 is the opposite, you might not get the highest quality possible, but you're going to get a great shot in the shortest amount of time in just about all the situations the F30 can handle.

Low light performance isn't on par with the F series, but it's head and shoulders above everything else in its class.

Face detection works pretty well - not every time, but it generally does a good job regardless of light level and is a welcome addition.

My only quibbles with this camera are that the lens cover can sometimes slide open in your pocket, it would have been preferable to make it slightly harder to open, but it's minor - only happened a couple times so far. I also wish that there was another quality setting for the 3:2 aspect ratio - for the lowest compression level (best quality) you have to use the standard size. Fuji has another camera coming out that is similar in design to this model (I think it's going to be the Z100 - it's not on the site yet), but adds optical image stabilization. I'll probably pick that model up after it drops in price a bit. I really love my Fujiflm cameras, very high quality in every regard, definitely the best value out there.

Credentials: Advanced amateur, S100fs replaced Fuji S9000.

I wanted/needed more zoom and was intrigued about a camera designed with nature photographer in mind. . . was annoyed that Fuji went to a special battery and cautious about the reported 'major' problem with purple fringing - but decided to buy the S100fs anyway.

A) I have yet to be able to kill off the battery. I take mainly existing light photos with ALOT of zooming and changing settings - so almost the same as flash. . . I haven't even gotten a 'battery is half gone' indicator yet (after 295+ pictures on one charge over 4-5 days of shooting) - so that doesn't seem to be a problem.

B) OK - purple fringing - to be frank, I've had a HARD time getting it to do this, mainly because most of my shots are zoomed or wide-angled. Yesterday I tried really, really, hard to get the fringing to appear - it only shows up in shots at 55mm or so and was only really visible in a shot that I just wouldn't normally take - the sun was at an angle I didn't like and the sunlight was bouncing off the brick building, it was that bright out. Soooooooo, if you take a lot of pictures at 55 mm (why do you want an ultrazoom then) and like really bright light - then it's a concern.

C) I LOVE THIS CAMERA! There are some differences from the S9000 and lower series that is taking a bit of getting use to - i.e. only two positions on on/off switch - preview is achieved with another button on S100fs. They moved the macro button back to the 4-way on the back (instead of on the left side - for the S9000).

D) I have gotten some fantastic shots - for example, a damsel fly about 20-30 ft away (on a piece of grass) - I was able to zoom in, hit the 2x digital and get a incredible close up (with a little work - see below for webpage with example). The angle isn't the best, but it's a great example of what is possible with this camera! Insects can be a pain, since usually to get close enough to get a great, detailed, shot - it becomes obvious to them and they move.

E) I'm haven't tried much more than about 1/3 of the stuff available on this camera - but I am very, very, very happy with it.

I made up a webpage with some examples: [...]

This item was purchased in 2008. I own a home based business, and use this camera in my work to take pictures for our catalog, and to identify our inventory. It has performed excellently since the time of purchase, and is in use even now. I am very satisfied with this item, and do highly reccommend it.

Fuji film 8mp J-10 camera. I had trouble choosing this camera over a samsung 860. But I got a J-10 for a good price. Along with that , I already had some XD cards from my not working so good fuji A350. So at least I didn't need to buy SD cards. This zoom is alittle jittery over the samsung 860, but not by much. So I try not to use zoom if I can help it.
It takes great out-door pictues, but not as good INDOORS or longer distance indoors. I was never sure if it looked better with or without flash and somtimes get blurry without flash due to it probalby holding the shutter open longer without flash. All depends on distance and lighting indoors. I was getting used to using my wifes camera,, a sony cybershot DSCH-10 which took much better pics indoors. But it is a double the cost camera. I like that it also takes regular SD or XD cards, but manual says the video may be jumpy on the SD cards depending?? The olympus version of this says it takes Micro SD, not the full size sd,and you would need that stupid adapter thing, but don't quote me on that. I also was looking for a cam that took AA batteries due to availability, but once you get a few ion battery packs, you should be set. Batt life was acceptable, but factory batteries are $$$. I got a couple maximal power's off ebay cheap, and they seem to be ok, though may not last as long as original. Im very leary on no name batteries, but for $7-$14 for Two,, I can't complain. I wish it had a 5mp setting. It looks like it goes from 4mp to 8 and 8.2. Over-all, im happy with the camera for a lower cost or backup/ something small camera.

Brill.camera to move up to from cheepo compact.
Very easy to use on auto setting with good results.
Have had pics published in the local press and on the Raycam net site. Never thought my photos would ever reach the qualaty demanded.
A very good camera. To be recommended.

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.

Had this camera for a while now and I love it. Simple to use, photo's are excellent and the video is very good. Love it in fact.

I ordered this camera on a Tuesday evening and it arrived, well packaged, on Thursday morning!! Fantastic delivery time!!
I chose this camera because I already own a Fuji and thought familiarity with the brand would help in learning how to use it. Additionally, I was looking for a camera with a viewfinder, and one which would use my existing xD memory cards.
I am amazed at the number of different modes and functions this camera has! I've only had chance to play with a few of them so far, my current favourite being sunset mode, as we've been having some great ones locally since the camera arrived.
I've been quite surprised at just how quickly I feel comfortable with the camera and it's operation - it's really easy and intuitive and the grip makes one-handed use a doddle, especially since the on-off switch,the shutter button, and the zoom control are all at the top of the grip. It's smaller than I expected and very lightweight even with 4 AA batteries in!
All in all I am delighted with this purchase and I know the camera will be well used to take lots of photos for a long time in the future!!

I work in community documentation, folkloristics, journalism, and oral history.

This is my field camera. I take pics for three column newsprint runs, digital interview projects that document people in their homes, and sense of place photography. I always shoot in auto, sometimes macro.

When set on the highest resolution, the images are about 3.2 to 3.3 in size (ok for large newsprint applications) and the shutter speed is quick. Quick.

Best of all, the camera is completely silent- no shutter speed sound to distract people like my friend's lastest pro canon. It's small, it's light, and it's affordable.

The flash is super bright (I don't usually use it) and will light up the night, literally. The video is more than sufficient, and is smooth in frames, with across the yard sound of kids talking to you coming in clear.

I have owned three since the s5000, and- even as a pro- have no plans to switch cameras. The worst I can say about it is the body is crafted out of cheaper materials than the s5000 was, and I'm not fond of the hinged part of the battery case. But, it hasn't broke yet, and I've had it since it first shipped, and I batter it in my purse daily.

Oh- without the flash battery life is excellent, and you always find a couple more aa batts no matter the time or place.

All photos at [...] were taken with this camera. Have a look at pottery wall for closeups, and "people" (esp. k & d) for moving action shots.

Considering another for work in schools with kids...

My camera was not one of those listed, but was very similar in shape and size to those that were, which probably accounts for the tight fit. The design is nice and provides good protection to the camera. If you need to carry other items such as mermory cards or spare batteries, a camera bag would be a better choice. Even so, this case would nicely fit in most camera bags and provide extra protection to the camera whether in or out of the bag.

The battery is some special flat model that takes, like, 10 minutes to charge. "Great," you say? Not hardly, because that's about how long it lasts, and, unlike my previous Fuji, which used AAs, there's no way that I know of to have another set of batteries charged and ready to go. Hence, the battery's ALWAYS dead, and is so as I type. I find this VERY poor indeed; this thing needs more charging than my cell phone, which is on 24/7. Considering the battery to be a "feature," that's why I gave "features" 1 star. I'm seriously unhappy with this camera since it's useless without power. I'd appreciate a bigger camera with bigger batteries that's a lot more useful in the end.

I've had this camera for a few years now and I like it for it's picture taking ability overall. However, the compatibility, or non-compatibility I should say, makes me crazy. It takes an xD card which is not compatible with the standard SD card reader that is built in to my computer or my portable card reader that accepts 6 formats, but not xD. This also means that if I have a problem with my card or want to share pictures with friends, I cant because everyone else is using SD cards. Also, the transfer cable is not a standard USB cable that most cameras use. It looks like one but the part that plugs into the camera is just a little more square than standard. So I always get it mixed up with all my other standard cables and end up loosing it.

If you plan to use this camera in isolation and are not concerned with the incompatibility of the card and the cable, then the camera is great. However, if you want a camera that allows flexibility in taking, transferring, and sharing pictures, I recommend getting camera more standard.

As a side note, I am also not happy with Fujifilm's contact us on the their website. They run you in circles and never actually give you an email address to make comments. So that is another x against them...

This is a great little camera, which replaces my worn out Konika Minolta, which was very similar.

I haven't had time to check the Fuji out fully, but the one thing that I find a tad annoying is the lack of zoom when in video mode. The Konica was pretty good at that, except for the noise of the zoom and the 'out-of-focus' image for a short while, but I could edit that out. But the Fuji (which is my 2nd Fuji because I loved the first one!) doesn't offer a zoom facility.....once the recording starts you are stuck on the focal length selected when you started.

I took a vase of flowers outside on the black of night and with a flash I tool pics of each bloom and they turned out beautiful Kelly

The Fujifilm Finepix S100fs is a superb camera, in most instances exceeding expectations. Whilst I am not a Pro photographer I consider myself an able amateur and have used many cameras over the years. As I am traveling more I decided I wanted a replacement for my Pentax K10D DSLR - which is an excellent camera, on par if not exceeding the Canon and Nikon offerings in its range (sub $1000.00). Lugging extra lenses around when traveling can be a real chore - yet there has really been no alternative - until now.
The S100fs is a real DSLR alternative at last - and this is from a REAL USER - not someone who has just read reviews or posts on the Internet.

The image quality is magnificent. Fuji have outdone themselves with this lens, it is a step above most Tamron, Sigma and kit lenses and approaches the quality of the higher priced offerings of the big manufacturers. The PROOF is in the images. I have standard scenes I always photograph to test cameras - one of them of the lake view from the rear of my house. Using the Velvia film setting on the S100fs I was astonished at the images it captured - some of them exhibiting an almost 3D appearance. This camera has produced the best images of this scene I have taken with any camera!

There is a lot of talk about Purple Fringing - mostly by Pixel Peepers who have never held the camera but who inspect low grade images uploaded to the Internet and make derisory comments. I have found however that using the camera involved a learning curve that I hadn't expected. Some of my first images were not as good as I had hoped - but I concluded that the camera was better than what I was seeing. More careful handling and attention produced startlingly better results. Have I seen some purple fringing - yes - but LESS than in Tamron and Sigma lenses I own, some of which approach the cost of this camera itself. This is easily corrected in post processing however. Though as I have spent more time with this excellent camera I have seen it less and less - implying that most of what people are seeing is USER error and not due to the camera itself.

And let me say this - IMAGES IN POOR LIGHTING / Night Scenes ARE MAGNIFICENT - better than my K10D!

If you are looking for the BEST superzoom camera out there - this is it - by far. If you are looking for a DSLR - but cannot afford the investment of good quality lenses (don't fall for the "kit offerings") - this is it. Tired of lugging around countless lenses and accessories for your DSLR - give this a try. You will not be disappointed (as long as you persevere and learn how to use this camera).

Excellent model for the price. Fujifilm also provide excellent customer service via their website, truly amazing people.

The only negatives are that it is battery power hungry when using the flash and higher resolutions, and on my model the flash fails to pop up when required due to it sticking on occasion.... but other wise it is sturdy, easy to use and the picture quality it gives is excellent.

Update - had it a bit longer now, used it more and rate it 'ok'.

The zoom control is a real problem - it's just to fast and awkward to frame the picture.

With hindsight I should of tried before I bought so now would give it 3 stars and learnt not to give instant reviews but to leave it a while for the novelty of something new to wear off !

I find I use my old Samsung more because it just slips into the pocket, carry anywhere, point and shoot. The S2000 is slightly to large for the average coat pocket so ideally needs to be carried in a camera bag. It is a different type of camera.
