Fujifilm Finepix 2800 Zoom

This digital camera is another in Fuji`s fine lineage. But I`m confused as to why other manufacturers aren`t offering any competition! No competition? It`s true, there is no competition in the sub-£500 digital camera market for a model with the equivalent of a 570mm zoom. What`s even more amazing is that I managed to pick mine up for just £269 brand spanking new. The full zoom option is only available in VGA resolution mode, the lowest available, and this is perfectly reasonable for website publishing. Even in high-resolution (2 megapixel - the highest) mode, you still have access to the 6x optical zoom, which equates to approximately 228mm. ...  Read the complete review

When the time came that I needed to join the digital camera revolution, I found myself not really knowing anything about what features to look for, how much to spend or which cameras I should be focusing on (pardon the pun!). Rather than spend a whole day trawling through "What Digital Camera?", "Which Digital Camera?" or "This, That and the Other Digital Camera? and in the absence of any magazines entitled "How to choose your first digital camera without actually knowing a great deal about them and only wanting to spend about £300", I decided to use a consumer review site (before I'd come across DooYoo). The Fuji FinePix 2800z ...  Read the complete review

Being a slight SLR snob (for some reason I can never see properly through the viewfinders of other cameras) it can be limited looking for a digital camera within a reasonable price range that is an SLR. When the time came that my husband and I had held off as long as we could before buying one, we got a copy of What Digital Camera and read all the reviews. It was basically the only one that would do. When I actually went to see one in the flesh I was amazed how small it was. It was tiny! The previous digiSLR that I had used (an Olympus, can't remember the model) was very big, although surprisingly light. This camera was half the size I expected, and ...  Read the complete review

This is a fantastic little camera from fuji. I have had the camera a few days and feel I can at least update my opinion to hopefully help somebody else. If you like the feel of a SLR camera then you will like the way this fuji camera sits in your hand. You must try before you buy if you have a choice of say 3 cameras go to your local shop and try them out! I can't stress this enough. You will need to purchase the following items along side the camera as they do not come as standard and need to be considered if you are on a tight budget. You will need an ac adaptor to download pictures onto your pc if your batteries fail during ...  Read the complete review

I used to have a wacky Fuji 40i, camera cum mp3 player - but unfortunately that was 'lost'. So as a replacement I was happy to choose another Fuji and to be honest this 2800 is a better camera. It's very easy to use and so far the results have never disappointed. I didnt think I'd use the zoom much, but in fact it's the camera's best feature. It's really useful for frameing a still landscape and also ace for 'paparazzi' type shots of the family playing. Another thing I like is the ability to turn off all the automatic processing and mess around with manual settings for stuff like exposure and white balance - ...  Read the complete review
