What Others Say
Better than Fuji S3800
This is my second Fuji Camera, my first was a Fuji S3800 with 6X optical
The S1000 is a litle more complicated to use, just to many opcions, plus the manual is very small and all the information are in the CD. IS a real good for the price and the zoom is fantastic
i usually dont leave review but with this i HAVE to
I usually dont leave reviews, however with this I HAD to. Although I had never owned a Fuji camera before, I bought it based on the reviews from various websites. I have had Sony, Casio and Canon camera's before but it was time to upgrade my Megapixels and also have more user changeable settings.

CONs
* Color is horrible! No matter what mode your in or how you change the settings, the color is always off.

Solid Starter Camera
I think this is a really good starter digital camera. Since it comes with manual controls if gives you the best of both worlds. I've been using it for student photo projects and it works really well. I was using Olympus & Polaroid cameras before and they do not compare. I like the sturdiness, look and feel and the simplified on screen menu and the listed features are truly great especially at this price. It gives it's more expensive counterparts a run for their money. I must (surprisingly) say that I am now a Fujifilm fan. If you are looking for a step up from film, a step down from an SLR for beginner's or photo student use, this solid starter camera is for you. I don't think you will be disappointed.
Replacement Camera
I bought the S1000 to replace an older Fuji camera. I like the shape of the Fuji because it fits my hand better than the cigarette pkg sized cameras. This camera had all of the improved features I was looking for and I liked it enough to buy one just like it for my son.
