 Great Pictures So Far May 1, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought my camera from http://www.ukcamerastore.co.uk/ and it arrived next working day, with a 170 page instruction manual - IN ENGLISH! I have only had it 3 days now and all my pictures have been taken indoors. It is very easy to setup and picture quality is great with the flash, no red eye so far. I love the zoom on the camera, the 10x Optical is fantastic.
My only complaint is that the way I hold the camera, my finger is held over the automatic flash, however, I am learning quickly to get a new grip.
Overall very happy with the camera and would recommend it, hope to update when I have taken more pictures with it.
 No UK delivery to my UK address... April 30, 2008
0 out of 7 found this review helpful
Apparently, my house is not in the UK. So this cannot be delivered. I've checked the "geographical restrictions" as listed by Amazon.co.uk and they tell me that delivery can be made to my location - Northern Ireland - but when I try to place the order, a message tells me that this item cannot be shipped to my address and urges me to 'check the geographical restrictions'...
I'm a bit disappointed as I liked this camera. Still, it's Pixmania's loss...
 Well Pleased April 27, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
My camera arrived within the stated time frame, small shock when I found instructions in French but relieved to find book in English underneath in box,so far I am well pleased to own such a super piece of kit.
Instructions are clear enough for an old duffer like me to understand.
Thankyou.
Bargain for the price! April 16, 2008

I've now had this camera for a couple of weeks and have to say it's so far so good. Having owned a couple of smaller Fuji models, I umm-ed and ahh-ed over whether to go for a larger bodied camera or just another small compact that could easily fit in my pocket. In the end, I eventually decided to go for the larger one on the assumption that if I ever want to get more into photography I'd need something with a little more "horse power" than a 3x optical zoom. It'll probably never happen but there's always time left yet. (I've also now bought a Samsung NV8 to take care of my compact needs which I'll review separately).
While it feels large next to my compacts, when stood alongside my old 35mm Canon EOS 700 from way back in the early 90's, it's tiny by comparison and it makes you realise just how small gadgets have become over the last two decades. However, although it feels nice and solid, it is still reasonably chunky and heavy and you certainly do have to wear it round your neck which can become rather a drag after a while...
The photos I've taken so far are perfectly okay but then again I'm a philistine and will readily admit that I don't have an eye for professional photography. However, neither are most other people and you're almost certainly going to look the part at weddings and parties unless there's a real pro in the house! It doesn't have red eye reduction (which I thought it might when I bought it) but so far I've only managed to take one red eye photo of my daughter who I was beginning to think was borne of the devil judging by my previous cameras! The batteries - I use 2000mh rechargeables - seem to last for ever even with fairly high use of the zoom and my insistence on taking three shots of everything I choose to shoot. If there is to be a negative, it's the small fact that the cable link is yet another non-standard size USB one (I now have three Fuji cameras all with different size cables!) meaning yet another cable to store safely.
So while this isn't exactly a review - there are professionals who can do that properly elsewhere - I'll just offer my opinion that this is a very nice camera which I certainly don't regret buying - something you can't always say these days with so much over-hyped, over-priced garbage around. There's definitely room for my skills to grow with this camera and I'd just better get out there and start making use of everything on the S5800 that I'm sure is idly waiting for me there ready to use.
great camera shame about the french manual April 8, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
great camera with many manual features for the more professional users, very good value and good battery life, bit bulkier than a compact but the 10 optical zoom is brilliant.
however only comes with french instructions which you dont find out until you drill down very deep into the description,and you won't realise if you just buy it on face value until you get it. I don't recommend pixmania as they stil havn't answered my emails requesting the manual and the description is not accurate
UPDATE - 09/04/08 I was contacted by Pixmania who were concerned at the poor feedback I left for them, they have agreed to make it clearer (before you buy) that the camera only comes with a French manual and the manual is downloadable. They offered to refund my postage in compensation which I've accepted, nice to know complaining still works....
