Fujifilm FinePix S1800 Review

The Fujifilm FinePix S1800 is a new super-zoom digital compact camera that looks and feels like a DSLR. Featuring an 18x zoom lens with a 28-504mm focal range, 12 megapixels and a 3 inch LCD screen, the Fujifilm S1800 offers full manual photographic...

The Fujifilm FinePix S1800 is the cheapest super-zoom camera that we've ever reviewed, yet it's by no means just a cheerful option, offering virtually all the functionality of its big brother, the S2500HD, at an even keener price. Fujifilm have...

Fujifilm FinePix S1800 Superzoom Camera

Looking for affordable superzoom camera that looks and feels like a dSLR camera? This FinePix may fit the bill.

Good build and dSLR-like design ; Good colors outdoors ; 18x optical zoom ; Affordable price

Color noise at all ISO levels ; Poor low light performance ; Average HD video with mono sound ; Unuseable image beyond ISO400 due to noise

Fuji Finepix S1800

If you are looking for a super zoom digital camera you will be hard pressed to find one offering this much zoom at this price point. On the whole the camera does the job it sets out to do well. It has manual exposure controls and High Definition movies.

High Definition movies - Cheaper Price Tag
