Fuji compacts for 2011

[Hamish Gill]

A whole host of fujis for the forthcoming year ... not including the X100 ( :spontaneous geek drool: )

i have to say, i am impressed by the feature set of the hs20 ... bridge camera aren't really my thing, but if your going to make one i think fujis approach is the right one - make it do everything most photographers could possibly need, including a 24-720mm lens!! thats more zoom capability than i have in my entire camera bag in one camera - i know they did it last year in the hs10 ... but im still impressed now... and then add high speed hd video to boot ... impressive

the t300 looks nice too, i like the fact that cameras are returning to how they looked when i was first introduced to photography in the very early 90's ... Black with red bits ... not that that matters really ... im just saying

so yeah, here is the line up

But I only have eyes for one!!

The longer zoom Fuji's

I was using a S2500Hd which I upgraded about a month ago to the S4000 the buttons are a lot better placed on the new camera with somewhere actually to put your thumb I wouldnt bother with using the camera on fine though as it leaves a cast around objects which isnt there when you leave it on standard.

 

[Hamish Gill]

That's interesting Dave ...
Ive always liked fuji's superzooms, i used to work in a shop and sold a great deal of them!
Makes me wonder if setting them all to fine before they lef the shop was such a good idea?
Do you have examples? id def be interested to see the issue!

Anyway, welcome to the forum!

Its not essential, but always nice if you could pop into the meet and greet forum and say hi to the forum etc

As an example of the cast you get on fine with the S4000. To be honest with the S2500 I always shot on fine and had some great results but with the S4000 I have found that standard gives a better result this second shot was taken on standard

i used to have the S9600 & S100FS and loved them to bits, great cameras

 

[Hamish Gill]

I have a S602 upstairs ... A great camera in its day!
6500 was another gem!
