Fujifilm FinePix S1500
|
|
As well as being compared against other super zooms, the Fujifilm FinePix S1500 is also often compared to pro digicams, entry-level DSLRs, travel zooms, digicams and compacts. The Fujifilm FinePix S1500's top rivals come from Fujifilm (such as the FinePix S1600 and the FinePix S1000fd) and Nikon (such as the Coolpix L100 and the Coolpix L110)
Generally, some of the advantages of the Fujifilm S1500 compared to other super zoom competitors include: it has a slightly wider aperture (f/2.8 vs f/3.2), has a slightly larger screen (2.7" vs 2.0"), is slightly smaller (standard size 103x73x68 mm vs professional size 114x85x112 mm), has better image stabilization (sensor shift vs none) and takes significantly higher resolution photos (9.8 MP vs 5 MP).
However, on average it has a slightly narrower wide angle lens (33 mm vs 28 mm), has a marginally smaller sensor (1/2.3" 6.2x4.6mm vs 1/1.7" 7.8x5.8mm), doesn't shoot RAW, is significantly more expensive ($461.96 vs $265.73) and doesn't support an external flash.
