The closest you'll get to an SLR without the SLR...

Strengths: Awesome picture quality and color tones. Solidly built to withstand some abuse. Almost instantanious start up time. Long battery life, easy to operate, tons and tons of features!

Weakness: Menu's can be kinda confusing if you don't read the manual first.

I absolutely love this camera! I got this camera because I had a lot of gift cards saved up, and because a friend of mine has a S7000. I've used her S7000 before and loved the picture quality so I figured that the S9000 could only be better and I was right! -- I took my time researching it (it does cost a nice chunk of cash, but is worth every cent!) I read all the reviews, looked at all the...

Fuji s9500 in Denmark

Strengths: Very sharp images in Good light conditions, highly impressive colordynamics

Weakness: A little disapointing macro performance - no AS

I bought this camera only because of the specifications witch on paper is very impressive. The lack of AS wich i have on my old Olympus superZoom is a little problem to me as i would like to make some bird fotography Its not present on the Fuji and that is in some ways a shame, as you will find out that high iso's not will stop you from you from shaking. Dont use higher than 400 iso - use longer...

The convenience and power of an SLR without the...

Strengths: Strengths: Manual and easy-to-reach electronic control. The manual zoom and the "F" key make for quick use of major features.

Weakness: Weaknesses: The AF sometimes takes a long time to work, particularly in low light, even though it has its own light beam to illuminate the (dark) subject.

This is my second digital camera, bought when my Fuji Finepix S602Z Zoom suffered some strokes and died over a three-day period (after only about 70,000 photos). The manual zoom of this camera is much better than the older camera; and there is a quick electronic doubler for electronic amplification. Further, manual zoom allows for independent focus lock and exposure lock without having to let go...

LOOKS AND FEELS LIKE AND SLR, BUT...

Strengths: UNTIL CLOSE INSPECTION, THE CAMERA LOOKS AND FEELS LIKE AN SLR. IT HAS A MUCH HIGHER ISO (UP TO 1600) AND 9MP...MORE THAN ANY OTHER IN ITS CLASS.

Weakness: WHILE FUJI HAS ITS OWN VERSION OF COMPENSATION, IT STILL DOES NOT HAVE A TRUE OPTICAL STABILIZED LENS. ALSO THE SUCCESSIVE SHOTS ARE NOT AS FAST AS SOME COMPETITION.

MY KODAK DX 7590 JUST WAS NOT DOING IT FOR ME. SURE IT WAS AN EASY ENOUGH CAMERA TO USE WITH SOME ADVANCE FEATURES...BUT IT HAD ITS SHORTCOMINGS...NO MANUAL FOCUS OR ZOOM, POOR NIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY, ETC. SO, I WENT HUNTING...TO GET AN SLR OR NOT, THAT WAS THE QUESTION. WHEN LOOKING AT SLR QUALITY OF PHOTOS, NOTHING BEATS THEM, WHATEVER BRAND. HOWEVER, THEY ARE EXPENSIVE AND CANNOT DO MANY OF THE...

Fujifilm FinePix S9000 9 Megapixel Bridge Camera

Strengths: Image Quality, Handling, Extremely low noise at iso 80 & 100. Start up & shot to shot speed is fast. No shutter lag. Great manual zoom ring. Quick focusing most of the time.

Weakness: Useless at iso 1600 (for me), "F" button under utilized

My rating is based on what you get for the price. A DSLR may be a little better but equipped with a comparable lens even the cheapest would cost hundreds more. For all but the most demanding applications the S9000 will do just as well. I have 40+ years as a serious amateur photographer. I have owned 4 SLR Film cameras and an Olympus C4000 Digital. The C4000 takes fine photos but I became...

Best non-SLR camera on the market

Strengths: Lens, color accuracy, AA batteries, Hot Shoe, PC Sync, resolution

Weakness: Slow multi-shot capablility

This is the best non-SLR camera on the market. The manual zoom lens gives a true wide angle, a decent telephoto, and everything in between. The external flash capabilities give me all the versatility I need. I listen to the reviewers whine about no image stabilization and slam the image quality above ASA 400. I routinely shoot at 1/100 sec. zoomed to 300mm and 1/8 sec. at 28mm hand held. I can...

Fuji FinePix s9000

Strengths: High quality photos, and very easy to use and has a strong built-in flash!

Weakness: Auto focus is a little slow in low light situations, it really isn't a weakness just a point of the camera that is not as strong as the rest.

I got this cameras as a back up to my Sony 10mp, and had some reservations. After reading up on the reputation of Fuji and a good return policy, I figured it was worth a try. From day one this camera has been a real joy to use, it turns out great photos, it has ruined a lot of shots but that was my doing as I was pushing it to see how much latitude I had with this great machine. And there is a...

Great Camera! Great Images!

Strengths: Easy to handle, fast, great images!

Weakness: Set Lens--but not really a weakness!

I am a Certified Professional Photographer, and normally photograph Beach Portraits with a FinePix S2, and I have purchased the S9000 for a back-up--I had an S7000 and just loved it! Won many photographic awards with images from that camera! This help me decided to purchase the S9000, I just love it as a travel camera! Easy, fast, and great images!

The best for this price

Strengths: Amazing colours (maybe the best I ever seen from a digital cam.). Noiseless images on Asa80 (just the same as a Canon 300D on asa100 - I made tests) ! It uses very few energy.

Weakness: The pictures could be a little bit sharper...

The S9000 is a really good camera. Not as good as a Dslr ( like some people says) but in this price this is the best choice. The camera's software is nice, and really easy to use. The body is handy, and feels like an Slr when you hold in your hand. If you had any Fuji in the past, ( S602z, or S7000 ) you will absolutly love this camera. If you have a Dslr, and you want to change your...

Great Camera but..........

Strengths: Size, Weight, AA Batteries, Picture Quality, Price, Non-dedicated flash shoe

Weakness: Shutter Lag, Command dial malfunction, smaller LCD screen

I have to say this is a great camera. Many try to comapare it to a DSLR, but it is not. It is in the Mega-Zoom class. The functions and settings are very similar and takes pictures as good. Its just that many reviewers compare it to a DSLR and it gets a not so good review. For its class, its one of the BEST!! It works as a point and shoot but once you learn the settings and learn how to change...

Fujifilm FinePix S9000

As time goes on, the falling prices of digital SLRs make it harder and harder for high-end all-in-one cameras to find a place in the market. That said though, the Fujifilm FinePix S9000 makes a pretty compelling case for itself, offering an excellent 10.7x zoom lens (that extends to a very useful wide angle equivalent focal length of 28mm) and loads of resolution at a price a hundred dollars or...

Fujifilm FinePix S9000

The Fuji FinePix S9000 still is a beautiful versatile digital camera and one that works outstandingly. The auto focus of the Fuji digital camera does a great and precise job and the exposure is excellent. The ease of creating a white balance is incredible. If we look at the possibility of working in RAW and the low noise ratio, the image quality and the high quality lens, the FinePix S9000...

DCRP Review: Fuji FinePix S9000

The Fuji FinePix S9000 is a camera that finds itself in a difficult position. It's an ultra zoom camera without optical image stabilization, and it's priced very close to the entry-level digital SLRs. In other words, Fuji had their work cut out for them. In most respects, the S9000 turned out quite well, though it's not a substitute for a digital SLR. Rather, it's a competent ultra zoom camera...

Fujifilm FinePix S9000 Digital Camera Review

The Fujifilm FinePix S9000 has the look of a digital single lens reflex camera and almost has the feel, but its 10.7x optical zoom lens is not detachable. This digital camera aims to bridge the gap between compact cameras with ultra-zoom lenses and the growing market of low-end digital SLRs. Indeed, the FinePix S9000 is somewhere in between. It has 9 megapixels on a 1/1.6-inch CCD, an RP image...
