Отзывы о Фотоаппарат Fujifilm Instax Mini 12

If you're looking for an camera that's a so-called "bridge" (between "point and shoot" and DSLR) or one that is a "super zoom" (meaning "with an over-200mm zoom"), I hope you'll think about the Fuji X-S1. I looked at all of the cameras in this category, and I really love it. When the current supply is gone, they aren't making any more, and it seems there won't ever be an X-S2.It was by accident that I read about this camera--which originally sold for $700-$800--but due to no longer being in Fuji's current line-up, the new ones still around have been severely discounted--to around $350. Now that I've used it, I would have paid $700 for it. I think its current price is an incredibly bargain. This is a -great- camera.A few things to notice about the camera body and lens:* Battery. (Per another reviewer, who thought it was broken.) It can be inserted two ways--one works, the other doesn't. If the camera doesn't turn on, flip the battery and re-insert it.* Zoom -- Fuji's are the only bridge cameras with manual zoom (24mm-624mm equivalent). So smooth and precise, just beautiful to use.* Design. It looks like a DSLR but has a fixed zoom lens that goes from wide (24mm) to telephoto (624mm) and also gets beautiful macro and good video. It's heavy--well built with metal controls and (included) hood, and a beautiful rubberized finish to the body. Yes, it's heavy but not "dslr+lens" heavy. (A "real" 624mm dslr lens is over a foot long!)You get a LOT in a small, relatively light-weight package.* the EVF (viewfinder) is beautiful--larger and clearer than on any other bridge camera. There is also a diopter knob to the left of it; if you wear glasses, you can adjust it for your vision.* Hot shoe. Of course it also has its own flash. Also some good low light settings in "Advanced-Pro Light" or "EXR Low Light (SN)" I was surprised how well it does in low light.* External mic jack. This was so important to me (I use a Rode microphone with it). Otherwise, you hear the sound of the camera in your audio.* LCD Monitor/EVF-viewfinder. It has a tilt screen which I actually like better than the fully articulated one on my previous camera (Canon SX50). The memory card loads on the side and the battery can come out without taking off the tripod plate. (I use a card reader instead of transferring from the camera). One bonus: the EVF has a sensor so it automatically changes from LCD to EVF when you put your eye up to the viewfinder. Also, you can customize the information displayed on screen--cycle through four different options, including "no information"--and even have a different display in the EVF and LCD.* Custom Settings. Use them! Once you get used to the camera, it's so easy (just put whatever you want, find "Custom 1" and push "Okay"). I like to use them for Macro, and Black and Whites, and some of the bracketing features. Many possibilities here, depending on the subjects you photograph most often. :)* Manual and a Recommended Book. It comes with a hard copy manual (Yay!). There's no book for this camera, but I recommend the book for the X10 since it has the same 2/3" sensor (that's another great feature, since all the other bridge cameras use a 1/2" sensor. Sensor size is so much more important than # of pixels). This is the book:Photographer's Guide to the Fujifilm X10SETTINGS, Some Ideas:If you're starting out totally overwhelmed by all the settings, I'd say put it in "P" or even EXR AUTO (not regular AUTO) and just start taking pictures. It works really well--beautiful, well exposed images. If you want to experiment with settings, here are ones I like. (I turn off the picture "Preview" completely, btw.)IMPORTANT: Remember to push the shutter half way down and wait to hear the "beep" that tells you it's in focus. Then you can either recompose (while still holding it half way) or complete pressing it all the way to take the shot.MY FAVORITE SETTING:Shutter ModeSize: M not L (not much difference and you can use DR bracketing in M and not in L)AF-C (it's set on the lever on the front of the camera, to the left side of lens if you're looking from the back)Button on top right lets you choose to bracket pictures. Experiment with film simulation, exposure (+/- 1/3), burst of shots, etc. I like DR bracketing (see below)DR: bracket so you get DR100, DR200, DR400 and can choose. If you want to set it, I'd use DR200 not AUTO DR.Film sim: Provia (the default). Velvia's usually too bright, imo. Astia's nice, tooISO: AUTO (400). AUTO (800) is okay, too. The camera will try to take pictures at ISO 100 but if that isn't possible this caps the ISO and you can use the ISO control button (left side of the camera, back) to adjust it more.Metering (left side button). So important. I like Spot, if you have the knack and time. Otherwise, I like to use Average. "Multi/Pattern" metering, for me, seems overexposed.AND ... FOR FUN...."Panoramas" are fun (in ADV mode). To get other choices than 360 degrees, push the bottom button of the contr

The only thing I don't like about this camera is all the smoke that comes from igniting the flash powder when taking low light indoor pictures.Kidding.This is a great camera. My wife has been using her iPhone to take an increasing number of pictures of our young 3.5 year old son. We also have a small compact waterproof/ruggedized Pentax W80 that we've had fun with when canoeing, fishing, skiing, taking on hikes etc. but its image quality isn't really very good (lots of noise). We've had a couple of Canon ELPH's in the past and they're pretty good (both became used to death/damaged).Since our only cameras were the iPhone cameras and the Pentax. I decided, as a Christmas present, to get my wife a really nice camera that would be a good investment for our family as we go on our adventures (the zoo, seeing Santa, hiking, family get togethers, playing at the park, birthdays, etc). I looked as some DSLRs (my wife always stopped to look at them at Costco) but they can get pretty expensive really quickly and as I did my research, I realized we'd likely need several lenses too. Lenses we probably won't be able to afford right away (I work, she stays home to raise him. Not as much disposable income right now).Then I came across the 'bridge' or 'SuperZoom' cameras when a friend at work got a Canon SX50HS for his Christmas trip to Kenya. He loved the idea of the 50x Zoom (turns out the lions were up close and he never needed to zoom in 50x but that's another story....).The cameras I was comparing the X-S1 too were the Canon SX50HS (less expensive), the Panasonic FZ200 (more expensive), Leica V-Lux 4 (much, much more expensive) and the Nikon P520 (same price) and the Fujifilm HS50EXR (slightly more expensive). I did not compare the image quality/features to DSLR directly. However, most reviews on the web (blogs, review sites etc.) do. There are also many reviews on Amazon by 'pro' photographers that love to compare the X-S1 to their pro DSLR gear. That's fine, but doesn't interest me as we simply didn't intend to spend that much money on various lenses (remember, we have a young son and varied priorities) plus we simply don't want the hassle of taking all those lenses with us on hikes, to the zoo, etc. It just wouldn't be realistic. We have a wagon full of stuff for the zoo already. We just don't want a backpack full of lenses we need room for snacks and water.Don't get me wrong, if it were just me, being a photographer, heading out at pre-dawn up to the mountains to get wildlife/landscape photos to sell or show off, yeah, I'd probably take a bag of glass with me. But that's not us. So...Again, this is a GREAT camera. My wife loves it (and so do I). She was shocked on Christmas morning when she opened the box and found such a well built piece of equipment. I also got her the book BetterPhoto Basics by Jim Miotke. Might get her one of the Scott Kelby books as well. This camera has all of of the high end features you'd find on a a DSLR; Program mode, Aperture and Shutter Priority, Manual Mode, AE/AF lock. etc. And the buttons are conveniently placed along the left side of the LCD. The Menu is straightforward and easy to learn.It's got several bracketing modes for ISO, Exposure Values, Film Types and Dynamic Range. It's got very very good Continuous shooting modes. There are also two Function buttons that you can customize for features you use a lot (we turned off the Focus Check for now and replaced it with AF).Oh, and the Sensor is bigger than every other camera I was comparing it to at 2/3". Most are half that size.I feel like I'm rambling so here are a couple of quick comparisons. Keep in the mind our primary concern was good image quality, the ability to learn how to really use a camera and some fun factor in shooting. All of these cameras seemed to take pretty good pictures. None were outstandingly bad, IMO.**********************vs. Canon SX50HSPros: Larger Sensor than the Canon. More rugged feel, better feel in the hand. Less gimmicky stickers. Nicer colors, IMO (subjective). The Fuji has a manual zoom lens. Much more fun and I prefer it to zooming with the rocker switch. EVF on the Canon kinda sucks. The Fuji feels like a higher end camera than the Canon (maybe Canon was pulling a Nikonism?)Cons: The Canon has a longer zoom - might be nice to have. Costs a little less. The screen is more 'agile' on the Canon. We have a Canon printer and have had good luck with our Canons in the past. They make a nice camera and I trust their products.vs. Panasonic FZ200Pros: Larger sensor on the X-S1. X-S1 is less expensive. Manual Zoom on the Fuji is preferable (to us). In my research the Image Quality of the Fuji was slightly better. DXO reports the X-S1 having better low light performance even though the FZ200 has that nice Leica F2.8 lens.Cons: The Leica Lens on the Panasonic is nice. It's got a really nice build quality. Not quite as nice as the Fuji (to me) but still nice and much better than the Canon or Nikons (plasticky).

Late to the Party - a Pro reviews the Fuji X-S1I am a professional photographer living and working in Albuquerque, NM - a very difficult photo market. I use a pro Nikon rig for my business but use smaller cameras for my landscape work etc. Over the years I have owned a myriad of digital cameras from Canon, Nikon and Panasonic. The Fuji X-S1 was a failed product offering by this company - its very high price tag and various operational issues predetermined its fate in the marketplace. However, now it is quite the bargain. The photo bargain of 2012 was the Panasonic GH2 at $500.00 - in 2013 it is the X-S1 at $350.00. This review will shed some light on the camera's problems and highlights - I will also add an application section and a fun prediction section as well. Lets get started!!Why the Fuji -X1 was not worth $800.00 at the time of release - remember it was touted as a "Made in Japan" high-end product (I admit that I am being nick-picky in my evaluations):1. Manufacturing issues - the battery and SD card doors, while functional, are of a flimsy design - the ones on the GH3, on the other hand, are very solid and robust2. Lens - the lens has resolution/sharpness issues - Pop Photo clocked it at 1670 lines while Shutterbug found its resolution at 1800 plus lines - these test results are reflected in the field as well - images could be sharper from this lens - APS-C and MFT cameras are much higher than this3. Software/operation clitches - this camera has some very strange operational abnormalities - the EVF sometimes does not show how the real image will appear; the image will sometimes freeze in the viewfinder; images black out during high speed shooting; the camera sometimes has shutter lag - all of these issues speak of a camera that was not fully field tested, despite what the Fuji product web site says - all of these issues should have been addressed before the camera was released4. Orb problem - fixed after release - serial #23 and above5. Len droop - fixed after release - serial #23 and above6. Low contrast images - even with the Velvia mode, images are not vibrant out of the camera7. Poor sharpness - all images need sharpness adjustments and many are major8. Poor continuous auto focus - camera cannot be used effectively for high speed shooting like sports, BIF etc.9. Poor Raw files - I have not seen a raw file that could be improved upon to look better than the Jpegs out of the camera - this is unusual10. Camera strap - of poor quality11. Poor implementation of video mode - no control over audio - no headphone jack12. Noisy sensor: the images have noise even at 100 ISO - see applications section13. Metering problems - the camera has problems metering in some high contrast scenes even with exposure compensation - manual exposure is needed in these circumstances14. Poor buffer - long in-camera write times with jpeg+raw or even just jpegs$800 is a lot to pay for these problems - but for $350? - the steal of the year!Why this camera is a bargain at $350.00:1. The lens - you are getting a 624mm for this low price - the sharpness of this lens reminds me of the 100-300mm from Panasonic, which I owned for a while. An aside: using the Panasonic lens is a lesson in frustration. The zoom mechanism of the lens is not smooth and is difficult to use - it seems all examples of this lens have the problem and Panasonic has refused to address it - here is a company with a Nikonism. The Fuji's zoom mechanism, on the other hand, is smooth and a joy to use. I just photographed some beautiful and majesticSandhill cranes - these birds are a very tough subject because they are always moving (feeding) and you only can get within 30-60 feet of them because they are so wary of predators. The results I obtained during this shoot, using the X-S1, were better than the GH2/100-300mm combo or the GH3/45-200 combo.Nikonism what is a Nikonism? This may be a word I have coined and one you are free to use - here is its definition: Nikonism - Definition 1: A company whose operating strategy/behavior centers upon greed, cost cutting and unnecessary austerity measures rather than providing the products/service and value that customers want and need. Definition 2: A company like Nikon2. EVF - the EVF is a joy to use and it is better than the ones I have used on the Panasonic G1, GH2, and GH3 - I see no distortion/smearing in the viewfinder but sometimes the image you view is not the one you ultimately get, which is definitely a problem in the field. A tip on using the GH3's EVF - it has a tendency to have a distorted/smeared viewing experience. Lately, on a whim, I took off my glasses and viola - the problem disappeared. So if you own a GH3, take off your glasses, readjust the diopter and see if the image improves through the EVF3. Macro capabilities - you just might be able to replace your macro lenses with this camera - proper handling techniques and lighting are necessary to get the most out of the camera's macro abilities4. Usable imag

While I've used film SLRs in the past, I've never stepped up to a DSLR. I've found P&S digicams and bridge cameras to work well enough for 98% of what I shoot. Sure, I wouldn't mind the added speed and quality a DSLR offers, but I don't want to pay for it and have to lug around/invest in multiple lenses. There are some tempting 4:3 options out there right now, but instead I decided to go with the Fujifilm X-S1. It is less than half the list price on Amazon currently, so it really is an outstanding deal, and I've found Fuji digicams can really deliver the goods. I have a number of compact cameras, and the X-S1 will be replacing (mostly) my old Olympus C8080 and a Panasonic FZ-50. Both are still great cameras, but they are showing their age.EDIT: I've actually acquired a Sony a7K recently, so I now own a full-frame interchangeable lens camera. The two are quite different though, so I won't compare them here. Both have their strengths and weaknesses, but if you're on a budget and don't need 24MP, then the X-S1 is the better choice.This is no compact all-in-one. In fact, a casual observer might assume you are using a DSLR. That pays off though because the build quality and ergonomics are outstanding, and the fit and finish is quite good. The X-S1 is even moderately weather sealed, so you can use it in lightly rainy weather with no fear of it getting ruined. If you don't mind lugging around a slightly less than DSLR sized camera, then the Fuji should work for you. Especially considering you won't need any extra lenses. Battery life is exceptional for this type of camera. Again - it has a solid, outstanding build quality with it's sturdy frame, grippy finish, and tactile metal dials.So, who is this camera for?- A person who wants nearly DSLR performance and quality in a single lens package. The wonderful manual zoom lens is silky smooth. Many DSLRs will have better low-light performance and faster focusing and shooting for sports, but the X-S1 is no slouch when compared to other bridge cameras and often bests them. Coupled with a fast 64GB SDXC card (like the SanDisk Extreme 64 GB SDXC), it blazes. It has tons of manual options, many of which I've still yet to explore.- A person who wants a versatile zoom range. There are other (sometimes smaller) bridge cameras out there with a longer zoom range or wider angle low end, but they would be hard pressed to match the quality the X-S1 offers, and the Optical 26x zoom (24-624mm) is pretty darn good. You can get excellent macro shots and then zoom out to the long end for close-ups of a distant subject. The camera's superb optical image stabilization helps in this respect as well. Wide angle, full 26x zoom, and 1cm Super Macro - this lens has it all and the camera hardware to make it happen!- A person who wants quality images above and beyond your standard point-and-shoot. The FUJINON F2.8 Wide-Angle lens coupled with the ⅔ 12MP EXR-CMOS sensor produces images with a great tonal range and fairly sharp detail across the zoom range. The 2 EXR 6MP modes boost either dynamic range or low light performance as well. The 9-blade aperture diaphragm allows for lovely "bokeh" effect in shallow focus images too.- A person who wants good full HD video. While the video here won't match the quality of HD from some other P&Ss or DSLRs/4:3s, it does produce quality full HDR video that wows me. Audio quality from the built-in microphones is pretty good, and the image quality is impressive. The user can manually zoom in and out while recording with little or no noise, but I've noticed that the autofocus has a tendency to blur out for a second or two at times while trying to find the subject near full zoom. This isn't a deal breaker, but you should be aware of it.- Macros. The lens lets me take amazing macro photos. Other fixed lens cameras can as well, but this lens coupled with the larger sensor in the X-S1 is impressive for a bridge/super-zoom camera.So who should steer clear of this camera? Anyone wanting a pocketable compact package for snapshots. This is not stealth digicam -- you'll need a camera bag for this one. Those who require the quality and versatility of a DSLR or even a 4:3 camera may also want look elsewhere, though the X-S1 comes pretty close in many areas. It has some quirks that take getting used to and the extensive menu system and myriad controls take a while to fully understand. However, it is fairly easy to use overall. You could leave it in the full auto setting and get great shots, but you'd be doing yourself a disservice.I think the X-S1 is nearly the perfect "compromise" camera. It does nearly everything almost as well as cameras dedicated to those functions. In a few areas results from the X-S1 may even exceed or surpass them. With its form factor, it is a joy to use and is a great all-round option for nearly every situation. The more I use it, the more I find to love. I've obtained impressive results from all of the photos and videos I've taken so far, ranging

This Fujifilm X-S1 12MP EXR CMOS Digital Camera with Fuijinon F2.8 to F5.6 Telephoto Lens and Ultra-Smooth 26x Manual Zoom (24-624mm) is a superb performer. It is my first advanced super-zoom camera, something I have wanted for a long time.Yes, it's heavy. Yes, it's complex. Yes, it requires an effort to learn to use it.But having owned several previous digital cameras (including a Canon PowerShot G1 X 14.3 MP CMOS Digital Camera), I found it to be quite easy to use even before I read the manual. While its menu options are many, they are relatively straightforward to configure to your taste. If you too are experienced with sophisticated digital cameras, I am sure you will find this one quite easy to master.And, believe it or not, in addition to the PDF owner's manual, Fujifilm supplies a PRINTED owner's manual! Reading this, which I did yesterday, will answer the overwhelming majority of your questions about the camera and its use. (You can download the PDF from Fujifilm's site if you wish to read it before purchasing the camera so as to see if it is suitable for you.) Of course one reading is not sufficient; I'll be spending the next few days re-reading the manual, this time with camera in hand, so I can learn the various ins-and-outs of it. (Frankly, this will be necessary for every purchaser. If you do not wish to make this effort, then I recommend that you do not buy this model, opting instead for something simpler.) I am truly looking forward to learning the capability of this camera and enjoying the pictures I am able to take with it.This camera has many individual buttons and knobs which means that changing settings via the menu is only rarely necessary. It features a manual zoom as well as a manual focus option (along with, of course, many varied auto-focus options) and also full manual aperture and shutter controls.Its sensor is 2/3-inch. This is not as large as the 1.5-inch sensor in my G1 X - but imagine the size (and weight - not even to mention the price) of the lens (26x zoom ratio) which would be necessary to accommodate that size sensor. A 2/3-inch sensor is large enough to create good pictures with minimal noise (in most cases the noise will not be visible) at ISOs from 100 to, say, 400. That range is plenty for most outdoor and many indoor shots.Even though it has a very good image stabilization [IS] circuit (it's turned on by default; you'll find its options on Page 4 of 6 in the Set-Up section of the Menu and please read below), I would not use this camera under extremely low light levels without some sort of additional lighting or, if absolutely necessary to take a picture under low light without flash, I recommend the use of a tripod and a longer exposure time - tell your subjects to be absolutely still. (Please see the paragraph below.) (In any case, you'll want to use a tripod at longer zoom settings.) The 2/3-inch sensor is larger than in some other Fujifilm Super-zoom cameras and note that a larger sensor produces less image noise (all else being equal) at higher ISO settings. However a 2/3-inch sensor is still a small one so you must keep in mind its limitations (there is no getting around the laws of physics).Its nominal ISO range is from 100 to 12,800 - but note that ISOs over 3200 are available only with reduced image file size (less than the usual 12 MP). While I have had my camera for only two days, and have not been able to put it through all the 'hoops,' I should think that, for all practical purposes, ISO 1600 would be the absolute maximum that I should ever want to use (and even that only in an 'emergency') and I shall probably restrict my use to the aforementioned ISO 100-400. This will, of necessity, restrict its use in low light situations in which you cannot or do not want to use flash; as I mentioned above, for these kind of pictures, you'll want to use a tripod and a longer exposure time. At least for me, this is no real inconvenience.But, all that aside, I have found three (ONLY three!) VERY minor points about which I have 'druthers':(1) I wish the lens stopped down to f/16. It does not; its minimum aperture is f/11. But that is something I can live with. (The Panasonic FZ200, for example, stops down to only f/8. That's an absolute deal-breaker for me even though I like its constant f/2.8 maximum across the board aperture.)(2) I wish there were some means of quickly changing the Image Stabilization settings. There are several settings, all of them useful (including 'Off'), but to change them the user must go deep into the menu. Fortunately, at least for me, I do not need to change the settings very often. (I generally leave it off or, when I want to use it, in Shooting + Motion [that uses less battery power than Continuous].)(3) I wish there were some sort of cover for the LCD screen. As it is, it will ALWAYS get smeared. I have ordered one of the screen protectors from Amazon but even that is just a partial remedy. (Does anyone make a snap-on plastic cover for the

Please note that to say I am an amateur photographer is an under statement. A point and shoot guy for over 40 years, half of which I never knew which side of the camera to look through.As I am being dragged into the 21st century I decided it was time to invest in a decent camera, we have a few point and shoots most notable a Nikon P100 which was at the time - four years ago a Cnet best bet with rave reviews. These days getting a decent image is a crap shoot and the odds aren't in my favor. I liked the fully articulated LCD screen and the burst mode which took 10 pics in one click and only keept the sharpest one. The camera has bitten the dust and after many weeks of research I have finally arrived at the point where if I look at one more camera my brains arew going to pour out of my ears.I had narrowed my choices down to the following:1) An entry level DSLR the Nikon D3100 or the Canon T3i 22) Out of the Bridge cameras I had narrowed it down to the Panasonic FZ200. It's insanely popular winning Cnet's coveted best in class for 20013 award.Price points on the above are all pretty much the same between the $450 - $550 mark. Fuji cameras had never been in the running except for one Point and shoot which I dismissed quickly along with others in the same category like the Nikon P510, P520 and a myriad of others. Checking them all out at Best Buy - Amazons's showroom, I was surprised at how flimsy and toy like the build quality was. Even with many mid range to higher end DSLR they felt fragil and poorly made - at least myold Nikon had some heft.Enter the Fujifilm X-S1 it was featured on the Amazon home page so I took a peek - the price was right, but I knew zilch about the camera and the few reviews it had. Cnet had nothing to say however about the X-S1 except for their branch in the UK. They had a video review that simply raved about the X-S1 giving it their award for Best of 2012. As I kept searching around one thing struck me as odd and that's there virtually no mention of the camera's Image Stabilization. As much as write reviews and comment on others, I post questions too, I posted a question asking about the Image Stabilization for the X-S1 and never heard a single peep.Every single camera I've looked into heavily promotes their image stabilization technology some offer optical only or on board or both. Canon, Nikon, Panasonic and Sony seem to be in a race as far who has the most sophisticated anti- shake and Blur free technoligies, it's splattered everywhere from Amazon listings to their promotional videos, Advertising and consumer bound selling materials. Because it's definitely a selling point and clear as in crystal to me an aspect of buying a camera that most consumers rely on when making a buying decision. However, even in the Fujifilm promotional videos for the X -S1 there's no mention of it at all.Despite this I was still intrigued enough to give it a chance and bought one. The day it was due to arrive I decided to call Fuji Tech Support to both get a head start on having a few of my questions answered and to try and get a feel for what it would be like as a customer. I found the support superb. When I mentioned the lack of information about Image Stabilization the Tech (a retired Professional photographer working in the New Jersey headquarters) felt I must have missed something so he did some poking around and was clearly dumfounded that there was indeed no information whatsoever.When I talked about taking an online or CD based Photography course his response was "Not Necessary right now" and told me "Look, you won't learn this camera in a few days period. that's just not going to happen. Instead use the manual as a reference and most of all, play around with both the EXR and full Auto settings, take plenty of shots and see how you do"It was great advice.Yesterday I spent hours taking pictures of our Bulldogs romping outside,over 200 photographs. The photos with exception of a just a few are spectacular. Crystal clear, wonderfully rich and sparkling, vibrant true to life colors - I was dazzled.Normally I would be in Corel's Paintshop Pro or Adobe Lightroom for hours just trying to reduce the noise and blur but these were pristine. Harley our oldest was born to play soccer. That said, because the recovery time between shots and focusing is so lightening fast the "action" shots of him playing, running, moving his gargantuan orange ball around were perfect, so perfect and blur free it was hard to believe I had taken them.The camera is blazing fast.In indoor light I wasn't impressed with performance although these shots were easy enough to brighten in editing and the detail was still marvelous. It wouldn't be so "marvelous" if I had 50 or 100 images to correct. At first I chalked this up to my ignorance of ISO, white balance, shutter speeds and so on. But since, I've found a number of gripes about poor low light performance. I've yet to try out the flash hopefully that'll make a difference - but go

Я купил это после встречи друг с Х30 ... посмотрел на него и решила, что мне нужна без излишеств камера с фиксированным объективом, как в старые-дней (признаюсь, у меня есть Кэнон "мост камеры", который имеет зумом). Камера является радость в использовании и качество изображения будет потрясающим. Есть много изысков (несмотря на мое заявление выше) если вы хотите использовать их, а просто точки и стрелять, или использовать вручную, и вы удивитесь ли вы, глядя на ту же фотографию, вы думали, что вы взяли? (если это имеет смысл?).
в стиле ретро выглядеть и чувствовать себя очень приятно, а в сочетании с кожаный чехол восходит к Дням качества и простоты. Он тоже небольшой и легко носить с собой куда угодно, не становясь помехой.
не хватает эмоций ... удобно держать и простой в использовании, батарея держит хорошо (неделю в озерный край, и мне не нужно, чтобы зарядить - хотя я не плодовитый берущего картину), и результаты кристально чистой. Простые и интуитивные средства управления, и я люблю глаза датчик, который означает, что я могу смотреть на задний экран, но использовать видоискатель для съемки без всякой суеты (это просто изменения между двумя, когда вы поднимаете камеру к глазу - и наоборот).
как вывод выше, я не "профи" и просто принять хорошее качество "кнопки праздника" ... но в следующий раз я посетить Венецию это будет со мной!

Это первая полностью механическая камера, которую я когда-либо имел, я хотел 35мм объективы с переменным фокусным расстоянием и решил пойти до конца и купить полностью механическая камера, у него есть автоматические режимы, если это необходимо, но я хотел, проблема обучения, только за одну неделю с момента покупки Ютуб научил меня многому, и я теперь полностью комфортно в ручном режиме, ISO, диафрагма и скорость затвора можно управлять очень легко и не так трудно узнать, видоискатель режимы оптико-электронных и совместных OEVF удивительно, я узнал больше о фотографии в неделю, чем у меня за все мои 45 лет жизни и имея камеру в руки, когда я смотрел видео было отличное, качество сборки является фантастическим, вы действительно чувствуете, как будто вы могли уронить камеру и она будет работать (не рекомендуется :) ) кнопки хорошо расположены и крепкий достаточно, чтобы включить или переключиться с колебание или смещать как они все накаткой, Я не уверен, если другие камеры являются дорогой к подлинному объявление донов, так они за это Фуджи Х100Т или погода просто Фудзи, но с другой стороны есть и другие запчасти и оборудование для с аксессуарами, но это отличная камера не только для уличной фотографии, но для прогулок с семьей в местных лесах и т. д., качество объектива и камеры, не задумываясь сохранении изображения в формате JPEG и в формате RAW на карту памяти быстро, я уверен на 100% в любви с моей покупкой, ретро камеры со всеми необходимыми цифровой современный гаджет.

Quick Intro:I've had my X-S1 for several months now. All in all, its a nice little camera for the novice (like myself) who doesn't need a camera that fits in the credit card slots of your wallet. Its large, bulky, (but not unreasonably so) and feels like a real camera when you hold it.Pros:- Higher Res than Moms and Dads will ever need- Awesome Manual Zoom- Every feature I could possibly think of, and then 65 more- As durable as anyone could expect a camera to beInterlude:I really cannot understand why these consumer level cameras have so many settings and adjustments. Once I figured out that it has 6 or 7 different auto modes, each for a different context, and that between those the camera can do 95% of the work for you and take flawless photos, I lost the User's Manual.Cons:Only one worth mentioning, but it turned out to be HUGE. I wish someone would have warned me about it before I bought the camera.. but I probably would have just ignored them anyway.About a month ago its tripod tipped over and the LCD was shattered, along with the glass cover for it. My fault, I'm dumb... totally my fault... I wouldn't expect the camera to withstand that fall without damage, so nothing against Fuji here.So, I ordered one (a LCD) off of eBay for $30 from China. It arrived in a few weeks and I installed it, perfect fit, about as difficult as an iPhone LCD replacement, excellent everything, great. LCD restored. I didn't think, although I should have known, that the glass cover is not actually part of the LCD.Turns out, I cannot find that little piece of glass ANYWHERE. So, I went to Fuji's website and found the closest "Authorized Repair Whatever" and emailed them:"We do not sell parts....I would try Fuji for the part you need..their # is: (800) 659-3854."I thought he meant that he couldn't sell me the part because he'd need to be the one to install it. Nope, he can't get the part AT ALL. So, I called Fuji at the number he gave me. According to the voice menu guy, I should press option 1, then 3, if "You need to buy parts.", so I complied..The not-nice lady I spoke with, after 5 or so minutes of being on hold (not too bad) let me explain the whole thing before saying:"Yeah, we don't sell parts.. you'll have to mail that in.. let me transfer you.. "That put me on hold for about 10-15 minutes, which generally annoyed me, but whatever.So this not-nice guy took my call and let me explain what was going wrong. He then said:"Ok, the first step is to go to our website and find the 'Repair Request' form. Mail that in with your camera to the NJ repair center. You can find it on Google, just type..."Had to cut him off on the 'How to use Google speech', sorry, "Ok, so, I have to mail it in I guess.. what's that process look like? How much will this cost me?""Well, you mail it in and after the camera arrives we'll take a look at it and email you a price to fix it.", he said."So, you can't give me a ball park?", I asked."No.", he said, singularly."What's the turn around on this?", I asked."Well the time it waits for valuation varies sharply, it just depends on our workload, but once you get the valuation, approve the repair, and pay.. it takes about 10-15 business days, and we'll ship it back".I said, "You know, the little piece of glass I need is literally about a $1 problem, and I will gladly pay you 20x that, but you just described a month and a half long, expensive sounding, process. Is there no way I can just buy that little piece? It literally just snaps in!""No, can't help you there, you have to send it in."--I tried to approach this with hat in hand, Fuji did not drop the camera, nor did they say it was "droppable". So, I tried to remain courteous throughout the process.So here's the warning: If you break any part, and I mean ANY part of this camera, there is ONE place in NJ that can get you the parts, and you have to get rid of your camera for a month+ and go through all sorts of nonsense if you want it fixed.Most negative reviews for products are people talking about either really rare problems or scenarios.. or received a defective product that was promptly replaced. I usually ignore those edge cases as a personal policy. However, in my case this appears to be standard practice at Fuji.. and I imagine that at least a significant percentage of people will eventually have something on this camera break.When that happens, you're not going to be happy about what comes next...

I wanted to get to know this camera for a few weeks before posting my review. Being an enthusiast and a neophyte to the world of DSLR-style photography, I had a lot on my plate but I think I managed.I did not put this camera's capability of shooting video through its paces as I did not purchase this camera with that in mind.As other reviewers have noted, this is not a straight-up DSLR camera; the camera has a permanent lens that cannot be removed. But it sure operates like one otherwise.My serial number starts with 34A; Fujifilm is pretty much past the issue that seemed to plague early adopters with the light orbs, so don't worry about getting a bum camera.The camera comes with several handy items: A USB cable, a metal "petal-style" lens hood, a lens cap, camera strap, lens cap, CD-ROM with software (that you might not need; see below), battery charger and battery (NP-95, if you're considering this camera and want extra batteries). Best of all, it comes with a printed manual (!), explaining in full detail each function of the camera.The camera is somewhat hefty at a little over 2 pounds (with battery and SD card). The camera is very nice to hold with its rubberized-like exterior. The lens has a ribbed rubber grip and is very smooth to protract and retract.Almost every function you would want is located around the camera's rear monitor and the shutter button on the front. There are two function buttons that can be assigned to desired functions (such as image quality and digital zoom). However, I wished I could assign functions such as image stabilization to one of the function buttons since I switch between handheld and tripod use a lot. Otherwise, I have to dig (not too deep) into the camera's menu to turn it on and off.The monitor (and/or electronic viewfinder) can be customized to suit your needs. Want to put a "rule of thirds" grid on the monitor? You can do that. The monitor can be pulled out a little but and angled (e.g., 90 degrees facing up).While one could just start shooting pictures right away with the camera at its default "AUTO" mode, the power lies in the camera's manual or semi-manual modes. However, I would caution first-time users to get familiar with terminologies such as aperture and shutter speed before diving into these modes. A little work comes with its own set of rewards.The X-S1 can shoot RAW (like other manufacturers, Fujifilm employs its own RAW file format, which is RAF). A RAW image is essentially a digital negative of the image. With it, you can change things such as exposure, color balance, etc. post-shot in the appropriate software, all non-destructively. The X-S1 comes with software on CD-ROM that can work with these files but the biggest bonus is that if you already work with software such as Adobe Photoshop CC, Bridge CC or Lightroom 5, RAF support is built right in (down to being able to use the film simulation modes the X-S1 uses, like Provia or Velvia). Just bring your RAW/RAF files in and get cracking.So you're probably wondering: How is the image quality? For the price I paid ($350 USD plus tax), I would say I got my money's worth and then some. I've uploaded a couple images here (look for username "Iacobus" in the customer images). Supposedly, the X-S1 was discontinued, hence the bargain I got but as of this review, the camera is up to $530 USD. Would I pay that much? Probably. I don't know of any "bridge" camera of this type that shoots RAW of this quality. There's Fujiflm's own FinePix series but those cameras' sensors are smaller. (1/2" versus the 2/3" of the X-S1.)Since the camera's dimensions are big, I would suggest a nice, padded camera bag of some sort or a DSLR holster bag. Do NOT pay attention to the "frequently bought together" link and its suggestions. The bag they suggest is too small. You want something like Case Logic's DSLR Camera Holster TBC-406 (and even then, you won't have room for everything; it's just a holster). Also, get a big SD Card; the X-S1 does not come with one. It has internal memory but it's not very big at all, especially if you shoot in RAW.So, in summary: Great camera, even greater if you can get it at the price I paid.UPDATED EDIT (04/16/2014): The X-S1 is back down to $350 USD! An absolute bargain considering features and build quality (the camera is made in Japan).

Я лейкой м3, Никон D40, в компании Ricoh GRD в IV и Рикох гр владельца. Любитель уличной фотографии и тех, кто редко смотрит на то, что фотографии, которые он принимает, потому что я держать мою камеру на расстоянии вытянутой руки и талия высота должна быть более сдержанной. Так что 1 из 15 фотографий стоит сохранять. Это только мое 50-летие и мне показалось, что новый фотоаппарат с бюджетом до € 1400. Начал смотреть на Сони А7, но не могу держать и фотографировать одной рукой. Также принято решение о том, что я не хочу носить линзы везде. Так я посмотрел на LX100 и RX100 III степени. Оба были очень хорошими камерами, легко держать в одной руке и зум-объективы тоже загрузиться. Но я читал комментарий эксперта, который предложил LX100 нигде не было так хорошо, как моя Г, когда он пришел к качеству изображения. Зачем вам камера, которая ничем не лучше, чем уже существующий? Зачем вам камера, которая такого же размера? Эта информация повергла меня в новый поиск орбите. Я начал изучать Никон D5500 и D7100. Не для разового применения силы и необходимости носить линзы, но у меня есть целая куча красивых линзы, которые я мог бы использовать из моего и D40. Однажды днем, будучи на конференции в Брюсселе, я написал Моей жене, чтобы рассказать ей, что я собирался купить D7100. Я зашел на Amazon и как будто моя рука была одержима, я смотрел его нажмите на Фуджи Х100Т. Упал обратно в свое кресло и почувствовал, как волна счастья С моему удивлению выбор. Я люблю эту камеру? Это как мой четвертый ребенок. Она везде ездит со мной, делает снимки такого качества, я не взял раньше - хотя ч/б не лучше, что мой гр - и чувствует, как лайка. Теплый лейки. Я в восторге. Я знаю, что это не очень технический комментарий, но я оставлю это для специалистов. Это отзыв о том, как одни оттенки кожи заставили меня влюбиться в фотографию сначала.

Ok, I did months of research to find out which camera would give me pretty much what I wanted, and if it didn't I would learn to work with it. I chose the X-S1. It had to be ordered from another related store, as the NH camera store didn't have one available. The store owner indicated that he was very happy with Fujifilm's customer service and they go out of the way to make their customers happy. Upon paying for the purchase, I noticed the camera serial number; it started with 14. From research on line, an unhappy customer from Amazon indicated that he had received his X-S1 and there was a sensor issue; any serial number less than serial number beginning with 22, had this issue and he was told by Fujifilm that Amazon shouldn't have sold that camera at all. The manager said that I had a 1 year warranty so not to worry if there was a problem. I was skeptical, but thought that maybe not all sensors were bad, and I would give it a try.Upon getting it home, I discovered a required clip to hold the battery into the battery charger, was missing and couldn't be charged (without being creative and finding a way to do it). I called and was told that a replacement would be sent. In sending emails to Fujifilm and calling them directly, I got more info on the sensor issue and replicated the problem indicating I had a bad sensor. I contacted my store again, and told them of the problem. They called customer service and was told that I should not have been sold this camera. He then contacted the local rep for a replacement. Week after week I called to find out when my replacement would come in. The manager indicated that he had talked to the rep, he had left numerous messages for the rep, and he was then calling daily and leaving messages for the rep. Finally after 3 weeks of waiting (and it could have been 4), I returned the camera for refund, and will NEVER buy a Fujifilm related product again.The above being said, I have the following comments on the camera itself. I am coming from a Canon Powershot Pro 1, and prior to that, SLRs cameras with multiple lenses,etc. (I have 49 years of experience with cameras) The clip for the battery charger is required because Fujifilm is using the same battery charger for two different sized batteries. The clip is easily lost, and the charger is not a nice convenient plug into the wall unit as Canon has. You will have have to carry around several feet of cord for the charger - again, unlike that small compact feature from Canon that will fit into a pocket or camera bag and take up little room.I do miss the fully articulating lcd screen as I really use the view finder more, and since the screen cannot be flipped around, the screen contacts one's face and needs frequently cleaning. (would be an issue for other cameras with the tilting lcd screen)The macro feature seems to be similar to what is currently available on cameras now - must be in wide angle to get close and to focus properly, which means small items like minerals, coins, stamps, insects, etc. you are right on top of the item, casting a show, and more importantly, a small item with a wide angle of 24mm is still a small item. My previous camera could still zoom in when in Macro or Super Macro. (perhaps this is the unfortunate norm now)The images are supposed to have really good resolution at lower ISOs, but when I looked at photos I had taken, they didn't seem to be as sharp as the Canon which was only 8MP.Unless I overlooked settings in the software, when downloading photos, it placed them into a folder with the download date, not when the photos were taken, which was my preference. I also had multiple applications opening for the download of photos - the true app for download, but also a direct connection to the camera would open up allowing download from there too. Unlike other software that I had seen, I was not able to select photos to download - it was either none or all. Also, deleting the photos from the camera was not what I was expecting - the software didn't allow me to go and view the pics on the camera and delete all or just what I wanted. The option for download was download all images (nothing selectable) and leave the images on the camera, or download images and delete them from the camera as well. Personally, I like to insure the photos have been downloaded prior to deleting any images. I learned this in the past - don't delete until one insures the images were downloaded and are fine... (perhaps the software could be tweaked to get what I wanted, but I did look and spend some time, but never found the toggles or selections for these features)One of the major issues I found with the camera, is that I do frequently point the camera straight down towards the ground, because I am standing over something that I want to photograph. The lense has an issue, as when you are pointing it down, the lense barrel starts to move towards the ground due to gravity and therefore, it is zooming in wh

The X-S1I only write this review to enlighten some people about what this Camera really is, and why I bought it. Take this writing for what you believe it to be.As a Photographer for over 40yrs, and a never ending Student of the Art, the X-S1 intrigued me from the moment I first became aware of it in Feb. of 2011. In my lifetime, I have had the good fortune to own some pretty fine equipment. It does not matter what the brands of those tools were, nor does it matter how much gear I had. I just know that I was really tired of the amount of gear I had. So I decided to read all the information that I could get my hands about the Fuji X-S1. At first, like many other great cameras that have come along, the X-S1 had some early troubles. There was a sensor problem, which caused white (Or bright) Orbs to appear on some Photos. That and a few other problems have long since been corrected by Fuji. In my research of this camera I spoke with lots of owners of this camera. I did not find a single "Knowledgeable" owner who did not love it! Not one! I downloaded the User's Manual from Fuji in March of 2011. I read, and reread this document until I knew the camera inside and out. This is something that is a pet peeve of mine. Why do people buy nice/complex things and never read the User Manual? Why? This is something that a long time ago, my Flight Instructor made very clear to me. Now really, would you fly a plane you did not know anything about? If your answer yes...well, forget buying this camera. Actually, this is a very easy camera to become very easy to use. Of course if you want to, you can put it full auto mode and get very good photos right out of the box. But...if you are a serious shooter, or want to become one, this is the camera for you. As I said earlier, I have had some pretty nice gear in my life time, but I can't think of one that equals this one. Yes, I mean that! There are those that think that "Bigger & Most Expensive" is the way to go. Believe me, it isn't. If I could go back in time, and could have this camera, I would be forever happy. Ok...a few words about this beast.Build quality is solid, better than any bridge camera on the market, guaranteed.Controls: Intuitive, fast, and precise. The Manual Zoom is nothing but PURE SILK.Auto ISO'S of 400, 800, 1600, 3200Manual ISO's of 100 - 12,800All the standard modes; M, AP, SP, P, AUTOExcellent Manual ControlsPlus; 3 Custom Settings of C1, C2, C3. For those that don't know what that means, I will tell you in simple words. If you would like to go out and photo bids in flight, you could set the C1 Mode as this: (ISO Auto 400) ( Focus: Hard) (Burst (fps) at the frames per sec you wish.) (Exp. Spot) (Focus: Area) (Film Simulation: Velvia) and whatever others your tastes might be. Select Custom Settings on the "Shooting Menu", select "C1", and the camera will be set to this when you rotate the Mode Dial to C1. If you like to shoot Macro shots, then program C2 for all the setting you prefer for shooting Macro Shots, select Custom Settings from the "Shooting Menu", select C2 and click OK. If you see something when you're out shooting, and it dictates a Macro Mode, just spin the Mode Dial to C2 and your ready to shoot. You also have C3, for another type of shooting. You don't have to reset your camera constantly. A Blessing for those of us old timers let me tell you!!Several other dedicated button for things like; AE, AF, ISO, WB, Picture Playback and Delete. Dedicated Buttons, no having to go into a Menu and look for them.Two Fn Buttons. Fn1 and Fn2. These work like the C1, C2, C3, as mentioned above except they are limited to a choice of 3 options for each button. Amazing, just 3 options each! What is one to do with only 3 options? LOLVideo: Stereo HD Video, with all the bells and whistles. (320 fps) You will be impressed! Just "RTFB". I'm not a Video Man, but it is impressive.Image Quality: In my opinion, as good as it gets. This reminds me of the two guys arguing who's Stereo has the highest frequency response. Can you hear over 16,000 Hz? I don't think so. I could go on the "Tech Trail" here but I refuse to do that. Why? Because it's pointless. Most of the arguments I hear about some of the hot topics are by some people who "Shadow Box" real well, but have never been in a ring. I really avoid things these days. It's just a waste of time!The Lens: For the record, the lens used in this camera is a spinoff of the same lenses that Fuji uses for their big broadcast lenses that you enjoy when you watch coverage of the big events such as The Olympic Games, Golfing Events, and "Monday Night Football as well. And it is made by the same technicians. Even the lens coatings are the same. That's Cristal Clear to me!How fast is the recovery time on the Shutter, how fast dose the Flash Recycle, how fast is the Auto Focus ? Do you really want those numbers? They're out there, look them up. But the simple answer is this: "They are faster than Ali". What does that tell y

FUJIFILM X-S1I bought a Fuji X-S1 about two months ago as something of a retirement gift to myself as a go anywhere camera. I have had 4 previous Fujifilm digital cameras S4000, S4800, S5200 and S2980.The main reason you buy a Fujifilm camera is because of the stunning colour quality. It is just amazing that for as little as $200 Fuji will sell you a, "stack 'em high, sell 'em cheap" camera that gives such wonderful colour representations. Scenery is great, portraits are great, ocean is great; contrast, tonality and colour gradient are great. But of course with such a "limited" camera you need to know what you are doing.Being an older guy, I cut my photographic teeth on 35 mm film Nikon SLRs and have a cupboard full of them with lens and all sorts of attachments.Firstly don't be sucked in by negative comparisons you read with DSLR technology because the Fujifilm X-S1 is not a DSLR; it is like comparing apples and oranges. The Fujifilm X-S1 is a single lens extreme telephoto (24 mm to 624 mm focal length(X26)) bridge camera. If you really want a "full frame" DSLR and all it can do then cough up the thousands of dollars and start buying a whole suite of lenses; that'll cost you a damn sight more than the $800 approximate cost of the Fujifilm X-S1.Personally I'm so electronic these days I hardly print any photos any more preferring to view them on my computer slideshow however my printed photo from this camera was just terrific.The lens on this camera is manual, "zoomed" by twisting the barrel with your fingers but it is a delightful piece of kit to use and reasonably fast too being F2.8 to F5.6 at 624mm focal length. Wow!!! ( I have some F1.4 primary lenses but they cost me about $1000 years ago ...just for the lens. Do you really want to shell out that kind of money for an extra 2 stops???). This lens also has a very nice manual focus ring with a button electronic over-ride in case time runs short.Some people whinge about the picture quality?? Just check out Tony Sturn's images on the internet and you'll be less concerned. The pictures of birds, foxes and squirrels taken by this guy with his X-S1 are just stunning. With a little care, photographic knowledge and this camera you could take pictures like that too.I bought this camera because I used to love using Velvia film and this camera emulates Provia, Velvia and Astia films for those of you old enough to know what I'm talking about. The emulations are just fantastic!!! Once again the Fuji colours are just brilliant.The lesser Fuji cameras have dropped the lens thread and that is a real disappointment because as an ex 35 mm SLR user I have many Cokin filters and gadgets to thread onto cameras. The Fuji X-S1 however does have a thread for filters. So should you decide to buy one get a UV(o) filter put it on your camera and presto your pictures are going to look a whole lot better even before you press the shutter button. Also protects your lens from scratches and such so leave it on. I also use a polarising filter a lot as in Australia we can have some pretty harsh sun light so a circular polarising filter is also a good thing to have.There are several films on YOUtube about the Fuji X-S1 and a look at these is probably a good idea.Some people have mentioned that the feature set on this camera is very good; very good is an under-statement... it is just fantastic. All sorts of modifications can be done on this camera, all the programme usuals plus colour modifications, film emulation, SLR portrait emulation, various panoramas up to 360 degrees using the camera horizontal or vertical, various bracketing modes, best picture from bursts with variable before and after how many shots etc etc. White balance is a special treat in this camera and I'm not exhausting the facilities on this camera. It is a fun camera to explore for all our techno geeks.Some have commented that image stablisation is not that great. But this camera goes out to 624 mm (35mm equivalent) focal length and with intelligent digital zoom (which is really good) goes out to 1248 mm (35 mm equivalent) zoom. Anybody who knows anything about photography is not going to do that hand held!!! You need a tripod for that kind of stuff whether you have 35 mm SLR, DSLR or a Fuji X-S1. So commentators.... let's not be idiotic, make use of your tripods. I took a picture of the moon on X2 intelligent digital zoom and fair dinkum, craters and everything are visible in the image but of course, I used a tripod. (HINT: If you want to photograph the moon don't do it when it is full moon, the shape called, "gibbous" and "quarter" is probably the best).I believe that Fujifilm is on to a real winner with this camera concept and as time passes and the few little "bugs" are ironed out this camera, should it become a series (i.e. X-S2, X-S3 etc.), up-ing the pixel count (currently at 12 MP on the X-S1) and maybe even a few more "bells and whistles" or an up-ed "EXR" facility could be a real DSLR killer. (RIP Niko

I will say a few things. Build quality is outstanding. No doubt about that.I have had it a couple of weeks and used it under a good many situations to get a feel for it. I really like it. But let me get right to the "negatives". But please understand that all cameras are trade offs of one thing for another. There are far more positives than negatives.1. Image quality.. People have a strange idea of what image quality is and they toss the term around. I think a lot of people who have knocked the image quality and said it is no better than an average point and shoot have not explored all the settings because it is far more than point and shoot image quality. There is a lot you can change in terms of setting and how you shoot. So it is possible to get great images and they are far more than point and shoot images. The images could be sharper under some circumstances but in others it is really good. The thing is that for the most part the average person is not going to notice the difference. The image quality issue is VERY dependent on the circumstances. The macro is excellent. Portrait is good and acceptable but a G 12 would do better. Outdoor is just fine even with lower light and even at 600mm zoom I was pleasently suprised. Also there are different modes and image quality will be effected by those. But IF you really want to pick... the lens could be sharper BUT the sharpness will not be an issue for most people and it would not be noticed until you blow up a picture. Funny how people that don't shoot much and cannot compose often will get hung up on stats. For the average person looking for nice pictures with advanced possibilities sharpness in this camera is not something to get hung up on. A person should be improving other factors in their photography and not obsessing over pixels in situations where you would forget about them anyway.2. Autofocus. This could be better and snappier. It works but it is not up to the standard of the camera. It can be skittish3. Ease of use and user enjoyment.. Well it is really really a pleasure to use without a doubt. It has many preset programs in it that could really help a person get nice picture especially if that person is looking for better than point and shoot pictures but does not want to fumble with an SLR or lenses. It bothers me to see people with disposible income and these expensive SLRS waltzing around snapping without a clue. They would be better with this. Hey, if you really have the skills to negotiate and manipulate an SLR in a very versitile way then that is a good thing but IF you want to drop the ego and don't care about impressing anyone when you are not a highly skilled photographer you are better with this. Yeah this camera is a pleasure to use and so versitile. It will accomadate most all situations on a family trip or day of taking photos of animals or whatever...The camera has lots of great features and is laid out well. The viewfinder is electronic and really great. The LED screen is sharp enough and great.Here is the bottom line. On one hand you have SLRs. We all know that their images are great. But lets take the average person what wants better than average pictures and wants to be creative. They may not want to take the kids to the park or the zoo with an SLR and a bunch of lenses. They may not want to be changing lenses. The reality is that if all they are going to do is snap then get a regular and save some money. If the snapper is wanting sharper images and has money get a G 15 or something. Or take an SLR with a 50mm lens. But let's take the person that takes the family on a trip. They go to the zoo. Well they want to snap the kids in front of a zebra. But then they want a close up of an animal in the distance. Then they see a flower and want a really nice macro. Then they want to do a portrait. Then this and then that at different lightings and distances. This camera will do that. Then it gets to be the end of the day and lighting is getting lower but you see a seagul in the distance and you want a zoom at 620mm. Well this camera will pull that off fairly well. So it is very versitile. Yes, you will suffer some image sharpness under many circumstances but as I have said most of the time that is a non issue and will not be perceived. To overcome that on your trip you need an SLR or smaller version of one with all the lenses. It is your choice.I would say that for a person that wants more than a point and shoot but does not want to go to SLR with all the hassels and benefits then this is a great thing. A person that has become desireous to expand beyond their point and shoot and get infinately better pictures and opportunities will like it. A kids birtday party, trip to the zoo, vacation or.. You see some kind of bird on your lawn and want a real close picture. Well you won't get it with the average point and shoot and with an SLR the bird may be gone by the time you change lenses.

Я был сыт по горло с ношением линз вокруг, больше надоело менять их ... я хотела бы вернуться к старой доброй фотографии, где я могла бы камера готова для действий во все времена. Я езжу на мотоциклах, тысячи миль каждый год по всей Европе, даже дальше. Я организую туры на мотоциклах, я иду на холмы и на берегу реки ... я хотел хорошую камеру лучшего качества. Х100Т это и многое другое. Я не собираюсь в педвузе камеры, есть и другие, более квалифицированные. Это не фотоаппарат для полный Ньюби в фотографии, это не установленные на авто интеллект' вид камеры, вы должны думать с этой Фуджи зум с ног, возможно, немного знаю о фотографии, но это требует взлома фотографий, дает прекрасные результаты ... я очень впечатлен.<БР />
не перегружайте его с Гизмо, дополнительный винт на линзы или как! ОК, возможно, бленда объектива, если нужно, но купить Фуджи бленда, не дешево, но тогда это было не дешево это была камера? Я не была в ситуации, когда мне нужна бленда еще, я просто изменил мою позицию фракции ... сортировки. Пусть она будет простой, использовать его и наслаждаться. Может быть, кожаный чехол Fuji для ношения через плечо, или небольшой сумке камеры, так что вы можете принять его к немедленному использованию. Качество и обработка Фуджи Х100Т так же хорошо, как он получает в моей книге.<БР />
я просто люблю его.

I bought this for a Fujifilm S1, it's a snug fit but it does fit and that's what I wanted it to do--carry the camera without taking up a lot of extra room. The pocket in the front is large enough for extra batteries but probably not for the charger. If you're looking for a camera bag to carry all your camera stuff (tripod, hood, charger) then this isn't it. If you're looking for a case that's large enough for the camera and an extra battery and still be as small as possible then you found it. When I opened the package I wasn't sure it was large enough for the camera but it was; it's snug without being tight and certainly no rattle around room. This is my 3rd Fujifilm S camera, for my other (now donated to charity) camera I bought the suggested bag and found it too large and frankly too clumsy to get the camera in and out. This is compact and the zip on the top makes it easy to take the camera out and put it back in. This probably could not provide much protection against falls or a lot of rain/snow. For what I need it to do, it's just right.

Я очень редко Райт обзор, но если вы смотрите на это вы, очевидно задумываетесь о покупке этой камеры. Да, это очень дорого. Да, он только имеет фиксированное фокусное расстояние, но когда вы держите его в руках, чтобы сфотографировать она переносит вас в другую эпоху! Я в определенном возрасте, когда я помню, какой должна быть настоящая камера. Это реальные камеры.м. Результаты невероятно, особенно если вы снимаете в черно-белом. Когда я был моложе, я имел Зоркий дальномером и этот Фуджи напоминает мне Зоркий. Это хорошо построены и чувствует себя твердым в руке. Это легко настроить себя фотографировать очень быстро, потому что все элементы управления находятся под рукой. Есть, конечно, меню, но appature и скорости выбираются с помощью традиционных методов. Если вы думаете о получении этой маленькой камеры. Думаю, не больше. Вы будете в восторге от момента, когда вы открываете коробку.

These were absolutely TERRIBLE. Received and charged in the given charger (using the correct polarity - not sure why some of the reviewers had issues with this, that part really isn't a problem). After charging popped on in my Nikon, showed a full charge and used for about 5 minutes before the camera shut off. Turned it back on and the battery now showed 25%. Used it another minute and the camera shut off. Tried the other three batteries and had the exact same experience. Charged all 4 again and had the same experience.

THESE BATTERIES ARE WORTHLESS.

I guess there's a reason the real NP-45 batteries cost (much) more.

I did not realize at first but it is not the charger and batteries I ordered. The number is wrong. I should have said something as soon as I noticed. I'm not really complaining, just mentioning so people can be more observant than I was and check their orders on receipt to confirm they have received the proper merchandise.

I ordered a replacement for NP-45S, and you sent BTR-L140-JWP which replaces LI-42B, EN-EL10, D-L163, KLIC-7006, NP-80.. The batteries do fit my camera but go dead more quickly than the original battery. I was traveling and now it is too late to return them, although I have not asked about an exchange. Hopefully next time I order batteries I will get what was posted on Amazon and not A different number.

It is even the wrong charger, says it is for OLY Li-40B/30B, NIK ENEL10, KOD K7006. Even though it is not matched to my original battery it seems to give it a full charge but it gets hot. The batteries that came with the charger do not seem to hold a good charge and go dead more quickly than my original battery. Also they lose some of their charge just sitting.

I checked again where I ordered <http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004THA3PW/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_4> and it says it is for NP-45S.

They were cheap enough so it is no big loss. Thank you.
