    "The Fuji Finepix S5800 is one of the cheaper super zoom cameras. It is also one of the easier to use models as well. The lower price can be attributed to a few features being missing, such as image stabilisation. If you need zoom and your budget doesn't stretch to the more expensive models then this one is worth a closer look." Read more

    In June last year I reviewed the Fujifilm FinePix S5700 , and I was pretty impressed with it, giving it 9/10 overall and a Recommended award. The S5700 has proved to be a well-deserved success for Fujifilm, so as naturally as night follows day it has now been joined in the FinePix line-up by the S5800. It is essentially identical to the S5700 apart from an increase in sensor resolution from 7.1 to 8.0 megapixels and a corresponding increase in the available digital zoom... Read more

    I have owned the Fujifilm S5800 for several months now, and it has proven itself to be a resilient and high quality camera. It has several modes, including shutter priority, aperture priority, and manual which allows manual setting of shutter speeds between 1/1000-4sec,aperture of f3.5-13.6 and ISO 64-1600. This camera has several advanced features, although you should definitely read the manual carefully as some of these are only available in certain modes which isn't... Read more
