Fun Little Fuji!!!
Review of Fujifilm FinePix S5600 Zoom by honeydrop

Advantages: Brilliant Quality, Fantastic Size
Disadvantages: Pushes you to SLR cameras!

Fantastic FujI!!! This lovely, little bridge digital camera really pushed me towards the realms of SLR Cameras. I had this camera for 3 years without fault or problems. The flash was adequate for most situations and the prints from this camera were superb. Outside Landscape work tended to come out best, although work taken with macro mode worked just as well! The digital and optical zoom accounts for most photographic events! Personally, I never ... Read review

SLR Styling & feature, point and shoot in nature.
Review of Fujifilm FinePix S5600 Zoom by bitesizepankakes taken from ciao.co.uk

Advantages Good image quality, Exceptional Zoom, Good look and Feel, Full manual controls.
Disadvantages No external flash port, Manual controls somewhat awkward, No MF/Zoom Ring, no image stableizer.

...I would love to think myself a great photographer. I liked that I knew how to use aperture and shutter speed get a desired effect. In truth however, I was a fraud. In my life, I have owned but two digital cameras. The first, an old 2 Megapixel Kodak point-and-shooter, and more recently the "stills" option on my Panasonic Mini-DV camera. Still, using the limited manual features on that camera inspired me. Enter the Fujifilm FinePix S5600 Zoom. As it's SLR styling would suggest, this camera includes all the features you would expect from Pro cameras, yet, as it's price point implies, at it's heart, this is a point-and-shoot camera. The S5600 includes a number of modes, all chosen by a convenient rotary selector on the top right, behind the shutter button. These modes include all the standard fare (Portrait, Landscape, Anti Blur... Read review

How do they do it for the Price?
Review of Fujifilm FinePix S5600 Zoom by colour_red taken from ciao.co.uk

Advantages light, fast and massive zoom
Disadvantages no anti-shake or manual zoom or external flash shoe

...An SLR with instant shutter response, able to take accessories, cheaper than a lot of compacts. This camera is just amazing, packed with all sorts of extras you'll never use as well as the X10 zoom (32 -320mm ish) and fast flash. For the price (£179.00 from ASDA) it was a steal and the quality of the photos is amazing. I use rechargeable batteries and it will take hundreds of photos per charge. The settings are much like a 35mm SLR if you want to play with exposure, etc, and it has a variety of built in set ups that are very useful, such as high colour pictures. I purchased the 2.2 telephoto and the wide angle lense as well as some macro lenses and filters to go with it. Despite no anti shake, if you are careful you can get a very good image ar X22 (700mm equiv). I could wax all day about it, but it's simple YOU WON... Read review

Advantages many
Disadvantages None Yet

...Fantastic Camera .i also have a A400 Zoom they take excelent clear photos well chuffed its not too costly i mean value for money etc ..this does astonishing vidio as well i got 128 memory card wich was real good value. Fuji also have a website so when you register your camera with them and set up a profile you can enter a monthly competition with them ..and get a bit of praise for that holiday you went on .. or the day out its fun to use and defo Value for money it also looks Good.. as for the photos when you get to know the camera you get better with it Fuji i would say are just as good as the bigger names .. you can buy these cameras just as cheapor cheaper from the fuji online shop...

Manufacturer's product description

This camera packs an almost unimaginable level of capability into its contoured, compact body. Not only does it feature Fujifilm's acclaimed Super CCD HR sensor technology, ensuring the best image quality possible, but you also benefit from manual control and the immense optical reach of a 10x Fujinon zoom lens. What's more, this camera has the crucial 1600 ISO setting, meaning that all forms of blur are much less likely to occur. Five million pixels is only part of the story. Super CCD technology has long been associated with class-leading performance in top-end digital cameras. Unlike generic image sensors, this system is developed and manufactured entirely in-house, and is performance only available from Fujifilm. First-rate color reproduction, image sharpness, low noise and excellent tonal response. Never mind the pixels. Feel the picture quality. This camera has real optical reach contained within it. There is also one major advancement on the previous models - the lens is fixed in place. This has two advantages. There is no delay, waiting for the lens to extend or retract, when the camera is turned on or off. The S5600 Zoom is blisteringly quick off the mark. The new design keeps the lens mechanism permanently housed within the exterior of the camera, rather than allowing the extending moving parts to be exposed to knocks and bumps. This makes the camera a more solid package overall. Just as you'd expect from a camera that echoes SLR design, the FinePix S5600 Zoom gives you full creative rein to influence shutter speed, aperture, ISO and focus selection. It is a real reassurance to know that the camera's performance can be directed in the way that you wish it. Then again, you could just take the easy route, and leave it on auto... The FinePix S5600 Zoom is designed to increase the likelihood of you getting a shot. Not only is it switched-on and ready in a double-quick 1.1 seconds, but its reaction to you pressing the shutter release is much quicker than previous models - a mere 0.01 seconds. You won't be missing out on much action with the S5600 Zoom. Anyone who doesn't think that much of movie modes on digital cameras has not tried this one. The S5600 Zoom offers the top-level 30 fps VGA benchmark, which plays back on television sets with remarkable clarity. Team the S5600 Zoom up with a big xD-Picture Card, and you will realize the full potential of this camera's multifunctionality.
