Great product!
(John - 7/8/09)I am photographer with more than 40 years of experience in the field and a proud owner of Fuji FinePix S9000 from 2005 (4 years).
Never had any problem with it until recently (manual exposure adjustment stopped working). However, given the price I paid and number of excellent shots this camera gave it to me, I don't complain at all.
Moreover, I doubt that any more expensive semi-pro camera would do similar job for so long time and so perfectly as it did my "Fuji FinePix 9000" (not to mention that I have made a lot of videos in the meantime, as well!).
When first time introduced in 2005, I couldn't believe my eyes how much features "Fuji FinePix 9000-9500" has had. And for what afordable price!
Image quality was very, very good, photos had a natural, smooth color, 9.24 Megapixels was at this time reserved only for pro-level cameras, there were astonishing zoom 28-300 mm, Live View with vari-angle display and even good quality video...Unbelievable!
I had enjoyed "Live View" with multi-angle perspective, HQ photos and video in one package long, long time before gentlemens from Canon and Nikon introduced similar features, recently.
The fact that both leading camera-factories are now offering the same features is telling enough in favor of Fuji, who was obviously way ahead in so-called "consumer grade" cameras.
I see now hard market battle between Canon an Nikon for more megapixels and it goes to absurd (unless you want a print big as a soccer field!). For good quality photo it is not most important since it's been said that 11 Megapixels is top which is more than enough for good quality photography. Other things are also important for consumers , however both Canon and Nikon understood that just lately. Sorry guys...
Having little improved features, new "Fuji FinePix S 100FS" with 11.1 Megapixels is the only camera that I would like to have now and I hope I will soon exchange it for my good, old F9000... I don't need or want any better camera than is Fuji FinePix!
Thank you FUJI for all those great shots in past 4 years and I wish you guys all the best in the future!
Happy customer.
