[MsCociana]

[pranavdhoot]

[schouten99]

Supercool

[mackenzieward1]

@Jumpyjakey i know that you can as i saw it on another video but i am not sure where you can bye them. :)

[jumpyjakey]

can u attach fisheye lenses to it, if so do u no any?

[kurai6]

Im selling my nikon p500 for 230 pounds

Anyone want to buy?

[zzepron]

Just got this camera - its brilliant.

[Beatstranger]

thanks so much for the clip! It really cleared some doubts in my mind and encouraged me to go get it. I'm new to photography and I believe this is a good choice for me.

[DUDUCAP22]

I have this camera! It's powerful lens and features ....I think that it is the best camera among the concurrence.

[zoedmusic]

thankyou, a really helpful review. Dont suppose anyone knows if this camera has depth of field (macro for long distance shots) ?? Thanks. x

oh and this camera is 219 on amazon, not 400!

[mohamed26257]

i want to buy sony a560 and this camera , plz any one tell me which better thanks

[bomberfun1]

kind of nice that it runs on AA batteries because with a rechargeable original battery you can end up without a power source, and AA batteries solve this problem.

[annaxxoxo]

oh my gosh, i love this camera *-*

[MrYoungWerther]

wich is better fujifim hs10 or sony alpha 300?



[YouAreFATgay]

worst thing is that it has AA batteries

[gigalin]

@YouAreFATgay use eneloop with ni-mh, they works better than alkaline

[SimonSaysBaka]

I have this camera, And I think its amazingly good, I filmed the vid I have on youtube with it, So if you want to have a look, then go ahead, its not full res tho. I love the super makro feature on this camera, since I take pictures of jewelry its needed.

[ThomasJamesShortley]

I am most probably going to get this camera, but one thing to bare in mind is that whilst videoing if you zoom in and out you can hear it, go and look at a video sample to see what I mean, good luck :)

[AMVayanefan]

This review helped my decision to buy it. Thank you for the great review. It should arrive in a few days and I'll give my impressions.

[patrol681]

Thanks for a very well videotaped, and extremely well presented review. You answered just about all the questions I needed to know, before considering making a purchase.

[DesoloZ]

this better than the sony a390 and i want to know what camera or camcorder the recorder has lol

[WhichWebsite]

@DesoloZ This was shot with a Sony EX1 professional camcorder, but I'm afraid for a comparison review you will have to log in to our site. Link in the description

[lynnca86]

Compare to olympus sp-800uz, which one you recommend ?

[tmtpe]

@lynnca86

HS10 is better

[lynnca86]

@tmtpe i see, but it was the next day after i post my question, i went to FRYS electronic and checked this camera, i found the figure quality is very poor. so, i decided to chose the one next to its, it is Sony's Alpha 390 although it is $150 higher than fujifilm hs10 but it''s a real dslr and the lens is changeable and the images are terrific.

[Kyleberg12345]

"its about 400 pounds"

thats heavy

[ThomasJamesShortley]

Hello, does anyone know anything about attaching other lenses onto fixed lens cameras - if you know what i mean, i know its possible with screws and what not :) ?

[MrLukasDiSparrow]

is this comera good enough to make amateur short-films? and what batteries come in?

[WhichWebsite]

@MrLukasDiSparrow It takes AA batteries. It all depends what you are shooting the video for. It does produce HD video and has lots of manual modes but it doesn't have an external mic in so would need a separate sound recorder

[lynnca86]

may i know what kinda video camera you have using in recording this. great resolution.

[WhichWebsite]

@lynnca86 This was shot with a Sony EX1 professional camcorder

[jojofria]

its a great camera from Fuji, i love the innovation and the size of the body almost the same size of my Nikon d3100, the quality of the photos is good and i recommend this camera it feels like you're having a dslr in your hand. Nice peace of art Fuji

[analysethis95]

Oo can't wait to get this. I really love photography and this'll be perfect. It looks nice and it's qualities are awesome! Plus, it's cheap ahah!

[ThePrototype4]

So, you aren't being filmed by an HS10 as well, right? :D Cause I want the camera filming you.

[hipobir]

@ThePrototype4 Good point mate

If your big selling point is how good video is as well as photo film with it !!!!!

[hipobir]

@ThePrototype4 Good point mate

[tegodfish]

Can you use this as a webcam?

[supernova58]

Between this and Canon Powershot Sx20, which one do you suggest?

[StackedDecks]

How easy is it to use the manual zoom and auto focus whilst trying to take a picture of a moving car ?? Would it be better / easier to get a camera with auto focus like the Panasonic FZ45 for such tasks ??

[reveer1011]

@StackedDecks you can switch between a manual-focus or an auto-focus mode... depending on your settings

[dunnobutwayne]

I ordered it for 299€ finally a good camera (had shitty ultra compact before)

[leightonprotheroe]

im thinking about getting this camera IS IT GOOD FOR WILDLIFE ANYONE???

[grid911]

"although it may look like a d-slr its a bridge camera" very good, but on fujifilm's website its a d-slr............

[WhichWebsite]

@grid911 It's definitely not a DSLR, it doesn't have removable lenses and has an electronic viewfinder not a single lens reflex viewfinder

[jacksflyingchannel1]

@WhichWebsite i do agree with you, but fuji don't.

[shaul55hip]

3:48 lol

[rouelibre1]

My S9100 is on borrowed time. :O))

As far not having a microphone jack, that is not a problem. Everything is crystal clocked nowadays and any sound picked-up from a remote (Zoom brand for instance) self contained Recorder/Microphone should be easy to put back in sync.

Hot-shoe mount it, record un quad and convert in 5.1. Voilà!

[zenonn87]

Isn't cause any problem the 30x big zoom in the picture quality? And I heard that the yellow color can burn easily. Is that true?

[ashguy3000]

Great review lads! This was very useful.

[ayerpanam]

i hv this one....it was a nice cam..30x rocks ..best prosumer cam available..

[filmwelder]

could you tell me a bit about the video quality. and also, is it possible to change the shutter speed and aperture while filming video in manual mode? thanks alot!

[lisalilsmartass]

How is the picture quality on this?

[s4m5on]

I can get this camera for 270 bucks new im just a little worried cuz im not a big photographer or anything if itd be too complicated for me

[WhichWebsite]

@s4m5on This is quite a complex camera but like all cameras it does have auto modes. The question is, if you are not a big photographer shouldn't you consider a simpler, smaller, more user friendly camera such as a compact?

[s4m5on]

@WhichWebsite yea I actualy decided againt this camera and will go for the simpler S1800

[DrPracticleHat]

@WhichWebsite agreed, I have an old s9500 and I'm always using manual mode, because if you leave your bridge or dslr on auto by default, you're doing it wrong.

[bulldozerHW]

Can you use any microphones on it

[Snorelax63]

So that's how you use the manual focus and the buttons on the back (I know, I know, RTF but it's much more satisfying finding out for yourself.)

[masni92]

is the lens "off takebale?

[WhichWebsite]

@masni92 nope, I'm afraid the lenses is non-offtakebale

[asjesus1]

@WhichWebsite :-)

[TheLittleWorldofGaz]

Do you have to use the manual focus? How much worse is the sensor compared to an entry level Dslr?

[Ishcoa]

If I had to buy a point and shoot, it would be this. My DSLR is a D90, but this is good for a small package. I especially like the zoom and manual focus. I once picked up a Coolpix P100, reached on the lens ready to zoom in, and forgot that the zoom was next to the shutter. I like this.

[jakehanson123456789]

Was this filmed on the HS10?

[WhichWebsite]

@jakehanson123456789 no, it was filmed on a Sony EX1

[Ishcoa]

@jakehanson123456789

Ya, at 3:20, you can see the cameraman.

[lukas21487504konter]

I have looked at two cameras, once the Fujifilm FinePix S100FS and the FinePix Fijiilm HS-10.

What should I buy? The S100fs is better tested, it is already almost two years on the market.

The HS-10, are brand new, so of 2010. It has a larger focal length (24-720!) And is assessed instead of 1.5, with 2.1. Well, I do it like this not as affected.

What do you think? Which camera is better?

I hope you can subordinate to it, because I'm from Germany, and I translated the text with "google".

[Multilashy]

@lukas21487504konter although im still learning i have the HS-10 it has a wide range of funtions although my fave feature is the zoom although if you dont know pick the one that fits your hand better dont get a top of the range camara if its gonna cramp your hand up

i hope i helped

Mitchell

[slomarik]

this could be fixet with newer update

[TheHexephant]

Nice, but that delete bug is a dealbreaker - let's hope there's a firmware update soon. How about macro?

[Specialer1]

@TheHexephant AH is the aswer

[Dr23rippa]

@TheHexephant Its not really a deal breaker at all. That's minor give it some credit !!!

[Ishcoa]

@TheHexephant

The delete thing sucks. But I guess that the camera taking you back to the beginning isn't that bad, since you just hit back, and you get to your photo.
