Product Survey: Bridge Digital Cameras

With the S1500, Fujifilm hopes is hoping to offer a 12x zoom bridge camera for under £200. For this price, you can't expect excellent quality from this new camera. You'll need to look elsewhere if you want a 28 mm wide-angle lens, or a Super CCD sensor. The focal length goes from 33-396 mm and the sensor a basic 10 Megapixel CCD affair. However, it seems that the S1500 is a solid camera that's got a lot of features for this part of the market. So, is it a good deal? The first contact with the Fuji S1500 gives a very good impression. Obviously, we're a long way from the excellent finish quality of expert-level digital cameras, but the plastic is relatively high quality, and a special grippable material covers the handle. The handle itself is particularly large, which means holding on to the S1500 is faultless, even for people with large hands. And although there are some details that betray its 'low-cost' origins, like the rather insecure cover for the battery card slot (which also hides the memory card slot: be careful not to lose the batteries when you have to swap cards), the lens is solidly mounted without the slightest wobble.

Fujifilm FinePix S1500

Occasionally, a camera that is good becomes better when a low price is part of the overall package. That is sadly not the case with the 10-megapixel Fujifilm FinePix S1500, which is merely a good megazoom, but stays that way despite a street price of less than $200. It does have a large feature set including a 12x zoom lens and full manual, semimanual, and full automatic controls. However, its photo quality also noticeably worsens when shooting above ISO 200 and it's definitely not speedy. However, it is an inexpensive way--comparatively speaking--to get some added zoom power for daylight or well-lit indoor shooting. Though it's certainly not as compact as other 12x megazoom cameras like the Panasonic ZS3, the S1500 is tightly packed (and considerably less expensive). The giant right-hand grip gives you something to really hold on to as well as housing the four AA-size batteries and SDHC card slot and room for shooting controls. This includes dedicated buttons for face detection and image stabilization along with the shutter release, zoom ring, and on/off slider, which if you don't hold it long enough won't turn the camera on or off.
