5 out of 5 stars   Awesome Camera with great features and easy to use.
October 23, 2014
Review submitted for Fujifilm FinePix S8500 16.2MP Digital Camera with 46x Optical Zoom (S8500) (FJFPS8500)
Pros: I was completely surprised at the features the camera offers for the price. I am novice / intermediate photographer and was looking for certain features that only traditional DSLR cameras offer; and the S8500 has every feature and more. The everyday shots with the family produce awesome shots and I am able to change styles with the dial without looking once it is set up for what you want. My wife loves it and finds it easy to use and has been producing some really high quality shots.
Cons: This could go either way and it is the batteries. The AA batteries were the only thing that I had to wrestle with but I am really starting to appreciate it. I just purchased a set of eneloop rechargables and I could always use more AAs. Now I don't have specific batteries for specific camera. If my batteries ever die on me; well you can AAs everywhere easily.

By Phil on August 19, 2014
Review submitted for Fujifilm FinePix S8500 16.2MP Digital Camera with 46x Optical Zoom (S8500) (FJFPS8500)
Pros: Easy to use Great zoom Really clear pictures Everything we were looking for in a camera
Cons: Can't find any
Other Comments: We were looking for the best camera we could find in a easy to use point and shoot camera with a lot of options available, we are not professional photographers but this camera can do a lot more than just point and shoot if you want it to , I like the black and white option and also the sports setting for good clear photos while shooting movement

5 out of 5 stars   Fuji FinePix S8500
By Ralph on July 13, 2014
Review submitted for Fujifilm FinePix S8500 16.2MP Digital Camera with 46x Optical Zoom (S8500) (FJFPS8500)
Pros: Great camera for the price! Super zoom capability. No need for separate lenses ... the 8500 has a wide angle/zoom that does it all. Allows both auto and manual modes ... capable of individual aperture, shutter, exposure, ISO, etc. settings. Almost perfect!!
Cons: No hot shoe. No external shutter release connection. No external mic connection. No user manual BOOKLET to carry with the camera. (The user manual is a 128 page pdf file, on the accompanying CD or available on the internet). FujiUSA customer service has a user manual booklet for $4.99 + $2.00 shipping.
Other Comments: Finding the right case is an interesting exercise! I think the Case Logic DSLR-201, with a hammock suspension system, is a good choice.

5 out of 5 stars   This is My Fourth Fujifilm Camera
By Skier78 on June 26, 2014
Review submitted for Fujifilm FinePix S8500 16.2MP Digital Camera with 46x Optical Zoom (S8500) (FJFPS8500)
Pros: Some minor improvements, but made big difference. NO buttons where heel of hand is held against camera when shooting; formerly bad location, especially with image view there. Lens cover does not obstruct lens from coming out as in some models. Turns on and shoots faster than my older models. Purchase from Buydig went perfectly; I'd buy from them again.
Cons: Minor, but indented buttons for image view and movies are annoying, must use fingernail to activate them. I don't care for the 'command dial'.
Other Comments: Since I am currently using two other Fuji cameras (first one died after 32,00 pictures) I haven't had an opportunity to test it much, so I may submit a later review. I'd never buy a camera without a viewfinder, as I use both that or the monitor screen, depending on the circumstances. Also, I had one Fuji with auto flash pop-up - never again; use a button to pop it - as with this camera.. The photos have been reduced in size for submission.

5 out of 5 stars   Fujifilm FinePix S8500 16.2MP Digital Camera with 42x Optical Zoom (S8500)
By freeroller12 on April 30, 2014
Review submitted for Fujifilm FinePix S8500 16.2MP Digital Camera with 46x Optical Zoom (S8500) (FJFPS8500)
Pros: This camera was listed as a Fujifilm FinePix S8500 16.2MP Digital Camera with 42x Optical Zoom (S8500), But it is [...]16mp 46x Optical Zoom camera, Witch is what I personalley was looking for cause I wanted as much Optical Zoom that I could get for the dollar, Because I wanted it to bring my subject closer to me. [...]I notice the defferants in the Title, Cause a 42X with 16.2 Mp is a S8300 model. and the S8500 is 16Mp with 46x Optiical , i called before I orderd it. I called customer service and they confirmd it was 46x Opical Zoom witch was my major factor for buying the camera, and it works Great and I am very saticefied.
Cons: [...]
Other Comments: I new what i want from personal research. and asking customer service, witch gave me the Item imfo, to me. they were very helpful, and nice too, and didnt blow me off ,like some places you call to get help or imfo.
