    From Steve's (note camera has no stabilization which you need and uses regular AA - figure 100 shots)
    Bottom line - the FujiFilm FinePix S1000fd is a bit of a mixed bag. While the feature list makes this seem like a very appealing model, the below average shooting performance, horrible High ISO image noise, and just "average" 10-megapixel image quality results lower its appeal. This model does have the ability to capture nice photos, just be sure you lock the ISO at 200 or below. With a street price of US$249 or less, it is a very affordable super-zoom model, we just suggest you do your research and look at all the offerings in this class and price range.

    I bought the Canon A590 and love it. I bought it from DELL. DELL has no record of that purchase and has no customer support. Look else where.

    I purchased one of these cameras for a sibling and was able to play around with it a little. Quality is well above a basic point and shoot camera, and has an actual optical zoom and doesn't rely on digital extrapolation like many cameras today. You have the option to switch between the back preview display or the view finder; which really comes in handy in bright light situations. It will never out perform a DSLR camera, but is definitely a very nice camera for someone that is looking for an easy to use middle of the road camera.

    I highly recommend you purchase a charger and a couple of sets of "AA" rechargeable batteries to go along with this camera.

    This camera can't come close to the Panasonic mega-zooms.
