Review: Great Camera for the price, easy to use, nice and compact. must read maual and play with camera to learn advanced features - I love his camera for the price. This camera is great for an Amateur photographer. This would not be for a experienced photographer. If this purchase is for a family camera anyone can use this camera. A more advanced shooter than an aim and shoot to using manual settings for a more advance Aim and shoot features. You must read the manual play with the settings to take pictures to get to know this camera. The way you change your ISO settings in the camera for a particular shot does take great pictures. My husband does not get into picture taking and I can set it to the automatic setting for him and he can take great pictures with it. I am more advanced than Aim and shoot photographer for enjoying leisure photos of places I go. Love this camera for the size and not bulky or heavy. Fits in small hands well. The best part I love is have great zoom capabilities and no camera lenses to lug around. This camera has a setting that you set for the 3 different types of batteries you can use in this camera. You can use an expensive photo battery, 4 Lithium batteries or 4 Alkaline batteries in this camera. I found the most affordable and easy accessible batteries and last a long time is Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries in this camera. When set the type of battery you have in the camera makes the camera have excellent battery life. Most cameras I have seen don't have that feature and battery usage is a very important feature in a camera. That is why I chose this camera over Cannon was the battery life reviews. This camera has excellent reviews on battery life. I am very pleased with this camera and have no regrets with this purchase. To get the best quality pictures with this camera you must take pictures play with the camera to learn all that it can do. You will not be happy if you just use the basic features to get the best potential and great snapshots with this camera. It took me a few times out to find a great setting for exposure, shutter settings etc. in the camera for my own liking. Make sure you play with the camera and you will be an excellent picture taker and pleased with this camera and what it can do in a compact camera all in one. Make sure you fill out the registration card with Fugi for excellent warranty experience. And lastly this camera does not have WiFi uploading to facebook technology. Which actually you can do just as well uploading to your special website using the USB card reader for easy transfer of photos to save them to your special hard drive or special online storage of your photos. Why do you need a special camera to do Wifi when most people have cell phones to do that? Better security when you have more control how you upload your photos. I would rather spent less money for a camera that takes great photos than paying for a feature to do Wifi technology. Simpler the better for a camera that takes great pictures. One thing with this camera it would not be good for the beach getting sand in it. Highly recommend getting a small affordable water camera for the beach snapshots.
Review: Camera Fever - I love the Fujifilm s8200 that my husband gave me for Christmas. Let's start with the fact that I am no longer in my teens or twenties (far from it!). I was accustomed to using my 35mm Canon when the digital age hit the marketplace. I started using the point-and-shoot digital cameras that I could put in my purse or pocket. In the course of a few years I moved from a Kodak, to a Nikon, to a Canon digital, each getting a little better picture for me. I could carry them in my pocket but my pictures just weren't as clear or good as I had hoped. I've wanted to go DSLR, but those cameras were WAY out of my price range, so I did the best I could with my little digitals. A few months ago, my husband heard me say that my nephew was getting better pictures on his cell phone than I was getting with my cameras. That began our search for a good camera that was reasonably priced. My research led me to the Fujifilm cameras. I was thinking of the S4200, (largely due to a price-quality comparison) but when we went shopping, my husband, knowing my love of photography, kept moving me up the line to the s8200. It was almost double what I had wanted to pay, but the camea was impressive. Once I made up my mind, the stores where we were shopping were out of the s8200s. desertcart came to the rescue. So .... what do I like? The camera is smarter than I am. Its point-and-shoot settings let me take good-to-great pictures while I am learning to use the many settings & features as I go along. I used to do some professional photography when I was younger, so this camera "feels" like a camera. It has a 3-inch LCD monitor & an electronic viewfinder that I can use to stop the glare that makes it almost impossible to frame my pictures in the older digital cameras. This is not a little rectangular box; this is a camera. There is a comfortable handgrip I can use to balance my pictures. Its image stabilization feature is helpful. My hands aren't as steady as they used to be. The 8200 tries hard to give me the best possible picture, sometimes in spite of my efforts. ;-). There is significant adjustability that allows me to choose shutter or aperture priority so I can be as creative as I wish if the situation calls for it -- or I can choose one of two automatic point-and-shoot settings if I am just snapping pictures. The dials, buttons, knobs & menus are easy to use. The scene position modes allow you to select SR Auto (scene recognition helps me frame the scene & automatically chooses the ideal settings), Auto (for ordinary snapshots), Advanced mode (lots of flexibility with this one), Custom (accepts user preferences), Aperture priority (sets the aperture), Shutter priority (sets the shutter speed), Scene positions (helps me match the scene with the settings I have chossen), Program AE (allows me to use settings other than the aperture & shutter priorities), and motion panorama (allows me to sweep the camera right or lift for panoramic pictures). I have just started using some of these settings & I like what I see. When I know the kinds of pictures I would like to take, the s8200 gives me position settings that help get the best picture. I can use Portrait, Landscape, Night, Night (Tripod), Snow, Flower, Baby, Smart, Fireworks, Beach, Text, Smile & Shoot, Sunset & Party. As I said earlier, the camera is smarter than I am right now, but I'm learning and I'm not feeling stressed about these features. The Fufjifilm s8200 also has video capabilities, but I'm not into them ... yet. As I said, I can learn as I go without feeling threatened by my camera. One of the best reasons to buy a Fujifilm s8200? Other cameras with the same or similar features are more than double or triple the cost of the s8200. The s8200 takes easy-to-find AA batteries. Although I bought extra specialized rechargeable batteries for my older digitals, I still found myself running out of power at the most inopertune moments. I can deal with a battery emergency with less stress because AA batteries are everywhere. OK, so what don't I like? Well, It is heavier than the point-and-shoot digitals I've been using, but it is surprisingly light when I compare it with my previous 35 mm experience. I know that is a HUGE variation, but the s8200's weight is not an issue for me. Sure, it's bigger, thicker, wider, etc, but I feel like I am using a real camera. OK, so I can't carry it in my pocket ... or my purse. Well, I guess I could get a bigger purse (just kidding!). When I bought the camera, I also bought a delightful little camera bag that is just the right size for the camera & a few accessories. If you like to switch lenses, the s8200 is not for you. It has a fixed lens with enough flexibility to meet my needs. I do not need to have specialized extra lenses to worry about. I am gladly giving up the extra lenses for my 8200's scene position settings. Overall, I am happy. My nieces & nephews do interesting things & now I can take better pictures of them doing so.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how is this one for taking sports/action pictures?**
A: I think it is great!  I use this mode when shooting pictures from the car (husband is driving) and the pictures come out fantastic.  Great for taking pics of the kids playing sports, too.

**Q: What type of batteries are people using, how many photos can be taken with the batteries. How long of a video can the batteries take. Thanks**
A: I use rechargeable AA's.  I buy either Duracell or energizer, and depending on how much I zoom or use the special filters, I get around 200-250 pictures per charge.  I keep two sets charged when I'm on vacation, one in the camera and one in my bag, just in case I need extras.  I haven't taken any video, so I can't help with that.  I've used photo lithiums in another Fuji and gotten pretty good results as well.  I wouldn't recommend using just basic batteries unless it was an emergency because you don't get a whole lot of photo time with regular AA's.

**Q: how long do the batteries last on this camera, and can you use rechargeables on it also instead of just alkaline batteries**
A: its difficult to say how long batteries last, as it can be variable and dependent upon the number of shots requiring flash, the number of times you turn on-off the camera between shots, and the amount of focusing and telephoto activities.  I do use rechargeable batteries (I'm currently using 4-year old 2450 mAH NiMH batteries and easily shoot 150+ pics).  With good new batteries, one should get considerably more battery life!

**Q: Does the 8200 focus very fast, I take lots of pictures of the grand kids?  Also is it good in low light?**
A: With good light it takes about 5 pictures per second, autofocus is not very fast but very good for such a low price camera. The iso is high enough for taking pictures at low light without using flash.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ MY FUJIFILM S8200 REVIEW
*by J***C on May 6, 2014*

WHAT COMES INSIDE THE BOX: - the camera body with fixed lens - lens protector or cap (which have to be removed manually to take pics) - Manual (very usefull it is a must read) and CD with bloatware (i will never install any program just for upload my photos to facebook... never! its just my opinion) - and a neck strap (this one is actually very sturdy) EXTERIOR: Ok let start this review saying that this camera feels, weight as much, and looks like a DSLR even my friends tryed to remove the lenses once, so Funny:), its built quality is good, it feels really good in your hand, it has leather covers to rest your fingers of your right hand, and the plastic band around the lens is used to be rested on your left hand (for long range-zoom shots) please note that the band has no useful purpose other than stetic or to give a better camera grip, (is not a manual zoom or anything like that) BUTTONS: Very well thought buttons, they are so easy to remember even when looking inside the EVF (Electronic view finder) i configured the right zoom button to be fast and the left side lever on the lens to be a slow steady zooming button. the FN button or up button of the camera is a custom button it comes customized as an ISO button, and i left it that way. there are 3 buttons that are specifically designed for: 1 rapid shot modes, 2 white balance, and 3 camera recording (this last one let you record in almost every mode your have selected using your preferences, and you can still take some photos) and finally theres a flash pop up button used for logic reasons All other buttons are standard on almost all cameras so i wont make you lose time reading about them. INTERFACE: If you have used a sony camera the menus will look ugly, you can select some colors, i went with black, but they are still usefull so i dont mind you can scroll using the analog buttons and a scrolling ring. SCREEN AND EFV: Not really the strong side of the camera, the colors look ok and the resolution is decent, the LCD has a sun mode to increase brightness but it is still limited, that is when the EVF comes to live and you notice it has a very low resolution but still good to take some good shoots, (remember to calibrate it before use otherwise you will see everything blurry) and this is ponit in favor to this camera for the price few bridge camera feature a EVF. ZOOM: this is the strongest side of the camera along with its features, almost no loss in quality but with less contrast and bright in the pictures when using it at maximun, the zoom is nice and good, its like using mi old telescope but clearer and with a more steadier movement (thanks to the camera systems) but still, it is highly recomended to use a tripod for max zoom shots. PICTURE QUALITY: Its Decent-good ive seen better and worse its like a canon sx 510h 12mp picture enlarged to 16mp but with less contranst (the two cameras use the same sensor size), super macros (1cm) are unique and impressive, long range pictures are good, wide angle pictures are good at ISO 100 and in fine settings, try to never use ISO above 3200, you have been warned. there is no RAW format to be selected keep that in mind. fine format uses about 7mb each picture, and normal format jpeg uses 5mb each picture. if you want some example pics or a more in deep review go here: [...] in my personal use i have purchased the camera with a HCSD class 10 of 32GB that gives you around 4000 pics in fine setting or 7000 pics in normal settings in 16mp and 2 rounds of eneloop batteries (4 batteries each) that will last you 600 pics each. VIDEO QUALITY: (IMPORTANT IT IS GOOD) there are so many reviews that have negative scores about this feature just for the zoom noise, there was a mayor point in favor (1080p\60fps) and in con (noisy zoom when recording video) in my experience with this camera i can tell you this 3 things that will help you a lot in videos: 1.- The video quality and speed is awesome the stereo sound is good, 2.- if you dont want to hear the zoom, just change the settings from optical to digital zoom and it IS SOLVED (IT IS THAT EASY), and 3.- important you can only film in full HD clips of max 30 minutes it doesnt matter your memory card capacity. and lets not even mention the high speed video at 320p look terrible but still a feature to be playing with. FEATURES 3d shots .- you are supposed to take 2 pictures of the same object in different positions, it can only view them on 3d certified devices (not this camera) i ve never tried it so no comments here burst mode.- up to 10 fps in 16mp and only 3 in max quality settings, and 30fps or more in 3mp. auto advanced mode.- automatically select the best scene in 6 modes, kinda usefull for macros and portrait. some filters: toy camera, and others MY FINAL CONCLUSION: this camera is a steal if you compare the price i got mine on amazon for about 185 USD, even the canon sx510h or nikon have a better image quality (a friend of mine have one) but does not come so well feature packed as this one for the price. best features: zoom and price (for the price everything looks good) so i recomend it ****° 4,5 stars :) hope to help you! i will update if i experience any problem with the camera, 1st month, so far working fine, i will test it on an trip to galapagos islands. Some Tips: Buy this camera with: - A tripod (i got the pedco ultrapod 2 with velcro) - 2 kits of 4 AA rechargable batteries (i got eneloop with charger) - a 32 gb SD Class 10 (i got trascend for the price) - and a case for all, i got a case logic compact system/hybrid camera case, and believe it or not it is smaller than i thougth and still i can carry all the accesories i had mentioned before, 8 AA batteries, charger, tripod, camera, with no problems but there is no space for more items and the tripod legs are outside the case but i can live with that :) and i am sorry for my english i am not from an english speaking country so i tried my best to give some information to you.
