Fujifilm FinePix S5600 Zoom Review at DigiCamReview

Mark Goldstein | Digital Compact Cameras | January 23, 2006 | 3 Comments

Fujifilm FinePix S5600 ZoomDigiCamReview have published a review of the Fujifilm FinePix S5600 Zoom, a 5 megapixel compact digital camera with Fujifilm’s new 5th Generation Super CCD HR sensor with Real Photo Technology (also known as the S5200 in the US).

“Image quality is good, the images have good colour, with good saturation, contrast, and detail, with low noise. Image quality problems were higher than average purple fringing, and slightly soft images (although sharpness can be increased in-camera). The camera did a good job focusing even in low light thanks to the focus-assist lamp. I did not notice vignetting in photos, nor did I notice barrel or pincushion distortion. There is a good range of image sizes, and a good choice of compression options. The macro mode is good, and provides good detail and colour. Auto white balance and metering seemed to be good the majority of the time. Red-eye was not a problem. The movie mode is good, providing 640x480 and 30 frames per second with sound.”

Sam, you need to go to the product information to get the lens capabilities and flash coverages, which may be variable. From looking at the image of the camera, it appears that they took effort to place the flash in a higher than average position to reduce redeye.
If you submit a comment/question rather than an "attitude", I think all your questions would probably be answered!

With angle of incidence equal to angle of reflection, red-eye is inversely
proportional to the distance from flash to lens, the level of ambient light
in the room, and the angle of subject vision away from the lens, and it is
directly proportional to flash intensity, distance from lens to subject for a
fixed crop and at normal flash range, size of subject pupils, and subject
blood alcohol level at the time of flash.

For the record, I don't think she meant me when she said, "you people". smile
