This is a small digital camera that not only easy to use, but produces fine picture and video quality for the price. due to the fact that it is a discontinued model, buyer cannot get any replacement parts. I now have 2 S1500's, after figuring out how to deal with the battery chamber door not closing. Uses a zip tie!!!! Needed a small camera to pack for a trip; one that can easily fit into a backpack without the weight of a big Canon.

Camera just does not take good pictures. Close_up shots are not clear and the colors in random shots are not crisp and true.

I am a picture fanatic,,yet I'm no professional photographer by a long shot,, But my old camera wasn't doing it for me anymore so I decided to try a more advance type which led me to the Fuji,,,I bought it gently used here on ebay and when it arrived i was frightened by the size and gadgets but soon found that once i started playing aruond with it,,it was as easy as my more simple model. The indoor pics sometimes have purple lines,,due to lighting I belive so that is a downside and it does tend to eat batteries considering it takes 4 double a's but with rechargable batteries it makes it easier. Outside pics turned out great,,and the video and audio is great. Especially close up cool pics of flowers and buildings and that type of photo,,, Over all I am happy with the camera for the price,,,I'm sure there better cameras out there for a bigger price tag but for the ametuer who wants to slowly turn to a professional I say this is a good camera to start with!Read full review
I bought this camera as an upgrade to my S700. I knew the S700 would be hard to beat, it was nearly the perfect camera for me. I'm a mom, so taking those quick shots of my kids is essential. I also want great quality pictures (indoors especially). The S700 fit the bill. The S1500 does offer more features than the S700, but they are features I will never use. The Face Detection must remain "off" because it SLOWS does the camera quite a bit. It takes a full 3 seconds to delete a picture from the camera, so I would suggest waiting until you upload them to your computer before going through them. This camera is definitely not as fast as the S700. The camera itself is smaller and lighter than the S700, which I do like. You have to manually open the flash to use it, which I thought would annoy me, but it doesn't. The lens cap just places on the end of the lens, as opposed to clipping on like the S700, but I find I like this better (placing on). The S1500 is way acceptable to me. I will be selling my S700 and exclusively using the S1500, I just wish it was a little bit faster. Overall though, it's a good megazoom for the money.Read full review
I bought this camera a year & a half ago & I've been really pleased with it. Like the other reviews have noted, this little camera does so many things that an SLR can do. The pictures are clear & sharp, editing tools are very good & the price is so right. Mine came with an 8gb card, so I'll probably never have to buy another one. I LOVE that it has a viewfinder as well as LCD; I find that a viewfinder is a necessity for taking pics in bright sunlight. My only complaints with this camera are the time it takes after snapping the photo & the actual time it "takes". With small children around, you often only have a split second for that great shot. My other issue is the batteries. It takes 4 AA batteries & I wish it had a rechargeable battery that could just be plugged in like my previous Fugi had. I find that rechargeable AA's don't last very long, so I buy the long-lasting (8X)ones & they last pretty well. All in all, I really do like this camera.Read full review
