It is available now for just £93.99.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></p><p><strong><span style="font-size: 18px">Fujifilm FinePix S2980 Features</span></strong></p><p></p><p> <span style="font-size: 15px">The S2980 has a 14 megapixel CCD sensor and 18x optical zoom lens, which is a 35mm equivalent of 28-504mm, great for shooting landscapes and close-ups of distant objects. To help take the sharpest pictures possible there is Dual Image Stabilisation combining high ISO sensitivity and sensor-shift image stabilisation.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px">There are a wide range of shooting modes, SR Auto scene recognition which automatically adjusts the camera settings for the scene, as well as semi-automatic and manual modes for those who are more confident in changing some of the more advanced settings. Other features include intelligent face detection, red-eye removal, blink detection and smile & shoot mode.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px">You can tag your photos and images for sharing on YouTube and Facebook, then when you next connect the camera to your PC and run MyFinePix Studio software, they will be automatically uploaded. Images can also be assigned a star rating so you can easily search for your favourites.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px">Videos are recorded at 720p at 30 fps, with optical zoom available during recording. The camera can then be attached to a HDTV for playback.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></p><p></p><p><strong> <span style="font-size: 18px">Key Features</span></strong></p><p></p><p> </p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> <span style="font-size: 15px">14 megapixel CCD sensor</span></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><span style="font-size: 15px"> 18x optical zoom lens (35mm equiv: 28-504mm)</span></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><span style="font-size: 15px"> Sensor shift image stabilisation</span></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><span style="font-size: 15px"> 3 inch, 230k dot, LCD screen</span></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><span style="font-size: 15px"> Full manual controls</span></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><span style="font-size: 15px"> 720p HD movie recording</span></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><span style="font-size: 15px"> ISO 100-6400</span></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><span style="font-size: 15px"> 2cm minimum focusing distance</span></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><span style="font-size: 15px"> 1.2 fps continuous shooting at full resolution</span></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><span style="font-size: 15px"> Motion panorama</span></li> </ul><p><strong><span style="font-size: 18px">Fujifilm FinePix S2980 Handling</span></strong></p><p></p><p> <span style="font-size: 15px">The S2980 has the look and feel of a small DSLR, with a chunky hand grip and mode dial. The body is made of plastic with the hand grip rubberised, as is the spot where your right and thumb sits.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px">The 3 inch LCD doesn't have a high resolution, so it's hard to get a good idea of how your pictures have turned out until you view them on your computer. There is also a bright Electronic Viewfinder (EVF) which makes it easier to compose your pictures in low-light or when using the zoom. The EVF is activated using a dedicated button.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px">The menu system is well laid out and easy to understand. There are quite a number of buttons which make it quicker to change certain settings such as face detection and continuous shooting as well as a function button. The flash is raised by the press of a button.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px">The camera runs on four AA batteries, the alkaline ones provided with the camera have a CIPA rating of 300 shots and we managed over 400 during testing and the batteries were still alive. You could invest in Ni-MH rechargeable batteries with a CIPA rating of 500 shots or Lithium batteries which have a rating of 700 shots.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 15px">We tested the camera's performance at focusing, shutter response, shot-to-shot time, continuous shooting etc. and have posted the results below. To test this we took 6 or more shots and calculated the average.</span></p><p></p><p> <span style="font-size: 15px"><strong>Shutter Response</strong></span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> </span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> 0.2 seconds</span> <span style="font-size: 15px"><strong>Wide - Focus / Shutter Response</strong></span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> </span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> 0.7 seconds</span> <span style="font-size: 15px"><strong>Full zoom - Focus / Shutter Response</strong></span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> </span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> 1.1 seconds</span> <span style="font-size: 15px"><strong>Switch on Time to Taking a Photo</strong></span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> </span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> 3.5 seconds</span> <span style="font-size: 15px"><strong>Shot to Shot (without flash)</strong></span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> </span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> 3.6 seconds</span> <span style="font-size: 15px"><strong>Shot to Shot with Flash</strong></span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> </span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> 3.6 seconds</span> <span style="font-size: 15px"><strong>Continuous - Top 3</strong></span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> </span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> 1.1 fps</span> <span style="font-size: 15px"><strong>Continuous - Final 3</strong></span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> </span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> 1.1 fps</span> <span style="font-size: 15px"><strong>Continuous - Long Period</strong></span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> </span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> 1.1 fps (slows to 0.5 fps after 10 shots)</span> <span style="font-size: 15px"><strong>Continuous - M Top 10</strong></span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> </span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> 3.3 fps</span> <span style="font-size: 15px"><strong>Continuous - H Top 20</strong></span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> </span> <span style="font-size: 15px"> 10 fps</span> </p><p><span style="font-size: 15px">The Top 3, Final 3 and Long Period continuous shooting modes all record at full megapixel resolution, they are the stated speeds above for three shots but slow down significantly after three shots. M Top 10 and H Top 20 images are restricted to 7 and 3 megapixels respectively. Focusing struggled on occasion, particularly in low light conditions.</span></p><p></p><p></p><p><strong><span style="font-size: 18px">Fujifilm FinePix S2980

The Fujifilm FinePix S2980 is an update to last year's [URL="http://www.ephotozine.com/article/fujifilm-finepix-s2950-digital-camera-review-16035"]Fujifilm FinePix S2950[/URL] and features an 18x optical zoom lens equivalent to 28-504mm and 14 megapixel sensor. It is available now for just £93.99. [/SIZE] [B][SIZE=5]Fujifilm FinePix S2980 Features[/SIZE][/B] [SIZE=4]The S2980 has a 14 megapixel CCD sensor and 18x optical zoom lens, which is a 35mm equivalent of 28-504mm, great for shooting landscapes and close-ups of distant objects. To help take the sharpest pictures possible there is Dual Image Stabilisation combining high ISO sensitivity and sensor-shift image stabilisation. There are a wide range of shooting modes, SR Auto scene recognition which automatically adjusts the camera settings for the scene, as well as semi-automatic and manual modes for those who are more confident in changing some of the more advanced settings. Other features include intelligent face detection, red-eye removal, blink detection and smile & shoot mode. You can tag your photos and images for sharing on YouTube and Facebook, then when you next connect the camera to your PC and run MyFinePix Studio software, they will be automatically uploaded. Images can also be assigned a star rating so you can easily search for your favourites. Videos are recorded at 720p at 30 fps, with optical zoom available during recording. The camera can then be attached to a HDTV for playback.

The body is made of plastic with the hand grip rubberised, as is the spot where your right and thumb sits. The 3 inch LCD doesn't have a high resolution, so it's hard to get a good idea of how your pictures have turned out until you view them on your computer. There is also a bright Electronic Viewfinder (EVF) which makes it easier to compose your pictures in low-light or when using the zoom. The EVF is activated using a dedicated button. The menu system is well laid out and easy to understand. There are quite a number of buttons which make it quicker to change certain settings such as face detection and continuous shooting as well as a function button. The flash is raised by the press of a button. The camera runs on four AA batteries, the alkaline ones provided with the camera have a CIPA rating of 300 shots and we managed over 400 during testing and the batteries were still alive. You could invest in Ni-MH rechargeable batteries with a CIPA rating of 500 shots or Lithium batteries which have a rating of 700 shots. We tested the camera's performance at focusing, shutter response, shot-to-shot time, continuous shooting etc. and have posted the results below. To test this we took 6 or more shots and calculated the average.[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]Shutter Response[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4] [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] 0.2 seconds[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]Wide - Focus / Shutter Response[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4] [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] 0.7 seconds[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]Full zoom - Focus / Shutter Response[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4] [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] 1.1 seconds[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]Switch on Time to Taking a Photo[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4] [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] 3.5 seconds[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]Shot to Shot (without flash)[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4] [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] 3.6 seconds[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]Shot to Shot with Flash[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4] [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] 3.6 seconds[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]Continuous - Top 3[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4] [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] 1.1 fps[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]Continuous - Final 3[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4] [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] 1.1 fps[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]Continuous - Long Period[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4] [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] 1.1 fps (slows to 0.5 fps after 10 shots)[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]Continuous - M Top 10[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4] [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] 3.3 fps[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]Continuous - H Top 20[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4] [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] 10 fps[/SIZE] [SIZE=4]The Top 3, Final 3 and Long Period continuous shooting modes all record at full megapixel resolution, they are the stated speeds above for three shots but slow down significantly after three shots.
