Fujifilm Finepix S4800

As with my last post, I’ve been wanting to take this out to test properly on a sunny day. The weather has had other ideas though and I can’t remember what the sun looks like! The first two photos below were taken a few weeks ago, by the way.

Anyway, I picked this up for £70 from Facebook Marketplace. I probably could have got one for £50 or less had I been prepared to wait (I wasn’t). So, this isn’t really a deal of the century, but as the old fella who sold it had taken great care of it, I thought the price was fair. The main draw for me was the 30x optical zoom. Five of the photos below take advantage of it.

Part 1 Conclusion

Out of the three cameras I’ve recently bought, this is the most expensive at £70. It’s also the most modern (2013) and has the most features. Everything seems to work perfectly well and the image quality is great. I’ll post a part 2 when the sun comes out and see how it compares to the F80EXR and the S8000fd. If you want more details, the links below have in depth reviews.
