I purchased the S100fs in early May, 2008. To say I am impressed is an understatement. If you would like to see - straight out of the camera images, have a look at : http://www.pixplanet.biz/Posting-stuff_5.htm
Very nice pictures Dave, they certainly look very impressive to me and are much better than Cliffs for evaluation. I really don't know why Cliff uses those model cars at all. I agree with Cliff though that this camera seems overpriced, I couldn't bring myself to pay over £320 for it when I could buy a DSLR. I'll keep waiting for something radical to happen before giving up on my Fuji S7000 and Canon A560. Cheers, Ian

I usually check all sites before purchasing in order not to be sorry after purchasing!By reading almost more than ten reviews I came to conclusion that this camera is realy a sophesticated great job of technology especially by implementing as the Fujifilm's Super CCD 's
In order to be more acquaited with the photos taken with this camera please have look at the galery of http://www.pbase.com/cameras/fujifilm/finepix_s100fs.
I've just purchased an S100fs from Fuji's own website.It's Refurbished and on sale at £319.99,less 10%,via myfuji,of which I an a member(membership free).I'll keep you posted as to how the pics turn out.
Agree with Cliff - a brilliant camera but a touch expensive. BUT, Ian Dalgliesh is spot on - I too have just bought a "refurbished" one from Fuji UK" for under £290 and at this price it makes much more sense. Simply cannot tell it from new, it's absolutely perfect and unmarked, and suspect it might be Fuji moving on stock while trying to avoid upsetting its retailers. This was at 10% off (use code P24OCTOBER) which expires 2nd November so you'll have to be quick!
I actually bought a Sony a350 and was so dissapointed with the images I was getting, I took it back to the (indipendant) camera shop. Even with the Zeiss lense, it wasn't much better. The assistant suggested the s100fs and I have found it to be excellent. The only niggle is the maximum 'bulb' exposure of 30 seconds which is a bit limiting for night / movement photographs.
I currently have a lumix fz 28 and am already looking for an upgrade. I do mountain climbing and love landscape and wildlife photography. The thing is that I don't find myself ready (or wealthy enough) to upgrade to a dslr with a such a great zoom. The reason for the upgrade is that even though fz 28 is a great camera and has received great scores on the net, it somehow does not really satisfy me, especially when it comes to night photography.
I can get a Fujifilm FinePix S100FS for about 480$ here in Iran And could also get the new lumix fz38 for the same price (panasonic cameras cost a lot over here, don't know why). Which one do you guys think (especially those who have had this camera) would serve me better? would you call switching from fz 28 to s100 even an upgrade in image quality? note that I can get rid of my fz 28 for a good price (around 350$).
