Impressive optics, Value, Convenient memory card and battery formats, Screen and controls well suited for pointandshoot operation
Manual control and advanced photography modes are less accessible due to pointandshoot control scheme, although available
Depending on where you go, the camera will cost around two hundred dollars (USD), which is a good value for a powerful point-and-shoot. In some cases it succeeds as a crossover camera, offering impressive optics and imaging capabilities. I wouldn’t...
Like all bridge cameras the Fujifilm FinePix S1500 sets itself up as a jack-of-all-trades device, and this time for a reasonable price indicative of its manufacturers mass-market intentions. In fact, for just over £200, it feels like a lot of camera...
Abstract: Valhalla, NY, February 17, 2009 - FUJIFILM U.S.A. Inc. today announced the successor to the wildly popular FinePix S1000 with the introduction of the FinePix S1500. Ideal for advanced amateur photographers who are looking for an affordable, SLR-styled ...
Relatively compact for a DSLResque design, Better than the average pointandshoot, Easy to use interface, Good handling overall
Somewhat bulky compared to pointandshoots, Not quite good enough to be considered an Ultrazoom, Menu navigation could have been better implemented, Dpad is placed a bit too low

Build quality and finish, Zoom in video mode, PSAM modes, Efficient scene recognition mode
Poor image quality above 400 ISO, Delays when shutter release pressed, No real wideangle (33 mm minimum), Screen has narrow viewing angles, Sound in video picks up noise of controls
Excellent build quality and finish; good value for money; digital SLR-style photographic controls
Lacks a wideangle lens; modest zoom range; mediocre image quality
The Fujifilm FinePix S1500 feels so good for a camera that costs so little that you desperately want it to do well. But the modest lens range and mediocre picture quality let it down. It's still a good buy for the cost-conscious, but only for those wi...
Abstract: Verdict: A capable ultra-zoom camera at a remarkably low price, but even better-value models are available. The FinePix S1500 is the first Fujifilm camera to use only SDHC cards, with no xD card slot in sight. This is fine by us, as SDHC cards are m...
