Fujifilm FinePix 6800 3MP Digital Camera w/ 3x Optical Zoom

Amazon.com Product Description

The Fujifilm FinePix 6800 is a high-end digital camera that continues in the tradition of the FinePix 4700. Sporting a new body designed by Porsche, the 6800 is an eye-catching number. The 3.3-megapixel SuperCCD captures images at resolution of 6 megapixels (2,832 x 2,128). The 6-megapixel image is interpolated up from the original 3.3-megapixel CCD image data. Fujifilm's proprietary SuperCCD design uses octagonal pixels, as opposed to the normal square, providing more image data than conventional designs. In other words, an octagonal pixel is worth more than a square one. The lens is a quality Fujinon 3x optical zoom.

An assortment of shooting modes, including portrait, scene, auto, and manual, all help to make the 6800 a versatile photo tool. The FinePix is also capable of recording up to 160 seconds of 320 x 240 video at 10 frames per second. Also, a continuous-shooting mode lets you snap up to five frames per second with a maximum of five photos before you need to let the camera record the image data. Additionally, depending on your memory card size, you can record from 30 to 60 minutes of audio.

The FinePix 6800 comes with a USB docking cradle that remains connected to your computer--similar to a USB card reader. The cradle allows you to easily transfer your images and recharge your battery. The 6800 also comes with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, 16 MB SmartMedia card, USB cable, video cable, hand strap, and assorted software.

Great Camera for it's time ..........2007-01-06

I owned a Fuji 6800 for 5 years and used it a LOT. When I purchased this camera in 2001, it was something of a curiosity, with it's unusual shape and control layout. But I needed something small and light for my work as a technical writer (photo illustrated user and tech manuals) and I'd had good luck with Fuji in the past, so I gave this camera a try, despite what was at the time a nearly $1,000 price tag.

6800 Experience

With a 3.3 mp sensor, I knew this camera was never going to take the sort of images I was used to with my film SLR cameras. But, for the type of work I was doing at the time, this level of resolution was more than adequate. In good lighting, the images from this camera could easily be printed at 8x10 with no difficulty. In low light, this camera delivered somewhat grainy results (max 400 iso), but given the fact that I was usually working in either well lit or "use flash" situations, my customers were always impressed with the images from this camera. As advertised, this camera offered a 6.0mp shooting mode, taking advantage of the octagonal design of the sensor elements, but frankly, I found the 3.3 mp mode images to be of higher quality. The zoom range on this little camera was fairly limited, but again, for the type of work I was doing, it was satisfactory. VOICE - I loved the fact that this camera offered a voice recording mode, so I could not only use this device to take pictures, but I could also record up to 2+ hours of voice notes on just a 64mb card.

CONS -

No Manual Mode - this camera doesn't offer any manual mode options. If you need manual mode, look at the 6800's sister camera, the Fujifilm FinePix F601 3MP (SCCD) Digital Camera w/ 3x Optical Zoom. I purchased the 601 for about $100 a few months ago (when the sensor on my 6800 finally died after 5 years of heavy use) and it's GREAT. It's a superior successor to the 6800 in just about every way. And it comes with manual mode for exposure and white balance. VERY nice. See my review of the 601.

Image Quality - the image quality on these cameras is pretty good, but not great. For illustrating

ISO Limit - This camera only offers up to iso400, so if you do a lot of low light shooting, look at the 601 with it's iso1600 limit

NOTE - IF YOU'RE LOOOKING AT THIS CAMERA (6800 or 601) IN 2007 ... the memory cards for this sort of camera are VERY hard to find these days. I had a friend look for them on E-bay for me (for my new 601) and in any seriously large size, the memory cards cost more than the camera itself.

3x Optical Zoom - Given the fact that I know own a 12x optical zoom Panasonic with image stabilization, the unstablized 3x zoom on the Fuji seems very restrictive. But, for close up work (such as I do for my manuals), it works fine.

601 Experience

See my review of the 601 for a detailed discussion of it's performance and features.

These are great little cameras, I never had any trouble with them (I don't consider death after 5 years of heavy use a real issue) and I can heartily recommend them, given the caveats above.

This camera sucks!.......2006-01-21

The biggest problem of this camera, the lens won't come out reliably. You may have to try on/off couple times. My wife always joke this camera, it need Viagra. When you need it to work, it won't erect.

Simpledeals4u.......2003-09-16

I have owned this product before, and when it came up stolen I wanted the exact same one, So essentially I have bought the Camera twice. The PC cam is super clear and I have recieved amazing photo quality prints from it. I was extremely impresed with "simpledeals4U" and the professionalism and care displayed by this seller, if I want something at a good price in the future I'll look no further than simpledeals4u

Multi Talented Mr. Fuji 6800.......2002-10-08

I have been using the 6800 for about two years now and never seem to have a problem with it yet. Unless you concider the flash fall off in dark places ( Just bump up the flash or ISO ). Somtimes I just want to record my lectures in class so I use it as a recorder. I also use it as a instant web cam at home so I could wave hello to my neice. The battery life last as long as 80 shots!! Now its selling for allot less for what it is worth. The 601 is a little smaller yet the the lense is not as clear. Try it for yourself.

good camera.......2002-10-04

This camera was my leap into "quality" digital cameras. The Porsche Design has been a bonus. I like the way the camera design looks. People have said that it is a "nice looking camera." The only negative is, sometimes when using the VIDEO function, in bright shots (sunny) there will be lines that drop across the screen, not totally blocking the screen though. I like the big video screen on the back of the camera. I like that the camera comes with a cradle that allows video Internet calls and easy downloading of pictures. The editing software that comes with the camera is easy to use. I upgraded to a 128 memory card and haven't looked back.
GOOD camera! Email me with comments, questions or concerns.

got worse and worse.......2005-02-11

About a year ago, a black horizontal line showed up on the screen and never went away. Since then, more and more have shown up. Now I have 23 black lines going across the whole screen, each one pixel wide. The monitor has now begun to flicker randomly, so I've about had it with this thing. I emailed NEC and they basically said I could pay to have them try to fix it. There are a lot newer and better models out there, so don't bother with this piece of junk.

Amazon.com Product Description

Numark's CD Mix-2 combines a full-featured DJ mixer with a dual-transport, high-precision CD player, creating a powerhouse tool for DJs. Whether you're concocting custom mixes for your own recordings or performing live for parties or for professional events, you'll appreciate the system's dual RIAA-equalized phono inputs, 3 line-level inputs, and 2 microphone inputs with independent input levels.

Each of the built-in CD transports offers true buffered instant start, seamless full-CD looping, instant stutter start with selectable stutter points, relay play (deck 1 to deck 2), and Numark's patented Anti-Shock technology, which means your system will never miss a beat, no matter how many feet hit the floor under your spell.

You'll never have to strain to read the system's enormous backlit display, and its dual-band, 12-segment LED output meters help you keep tabs on your levels. The CD Mix-2 comes with its own 12V AC/DC power adapter, but you may also power it through a car's cigarette lighter with an optional vehicle power-supply kit, depending on where your activities take you.

Poor Product.......2007-09-07

First one, the right cd player quit reading cd's after four times of use. It was returned to Numark for repair and returned to us four months later still with the same problem. They sent a new one that was used twice. Now neither one of the cd players will read cds. If it does, it takes 10 minutes to read them and then it plays 1 second of the song and then skips back to the beginning. All cd's used are in excellant condition! Its not the cd's..its the product..VERY POOR!

Great deal.......2006-11-15

I was familiar with the unit beforehand so I knew what I was getting. The vendor shipped it out right away and it has performed perfectly since. It is a great addition to my overall sound rig for DJing. The price was awesome, too.

A rudimentary electronic personal planner.......2003-05-02

First of all, fellow New Yorker marcr2 is not being fair to the Vista, because on the packaging it states clearly this uses the included foldable keyboard. In fact it says you input data either by using the keyboard or by syncing. It's not fair to criticize the manufacturer just because you fail to read the product description closely.

The Vista is a rudimentary electronic planner that can store up to 12,000 records. I saw it at an Odd Job discount store on Lexington Ave and it was selling for forteen dolas, so I bought it just to see what it was like. Well, doesn't look like I'll throw away my HP iPaq 1910 Pocket PC any time soon. The Vista is cute and really small and weighs only 1.6 oz with its two watch-type batteries (one for backup), but since you need the keyboard or a PC to input data, it's not convenient. The user interface is more complicated than necessary, although it's not hard to figure things out on your own. If you get lost, the 4-point-font user's guide helps. It also comes with PC sync software although I have not tested it since this is not going to be my main PDA. For me it's more a toy. But I can see my dad using it; in fact I'm buying him the version with a stylus and touch-screen for the same low forten dolas.

If you just want a simple calendar/addressbook/reminder and don't do much input on the road (or don't mind carrying the 0.5-oz keyboard with you), the Vista is the perfect size, and its price is right. For people with serious PDA needs -- such as downloading games and programs -- you need a Pocket PC or Palm.

nice idea but poor execution.......2001-06-28

I had many of the same problems as the other reviewers. I did not give up and after several days was able to work around the problems, except the back space key thing! I am sure that most readers would not be willing to persevere. But if you do you may be like me and fall in love with this organizer. It is small with a lot of features and memory for the price. It is perfect for me. Who knows, if you're lucky you may get one that actually works right out of the box!

Bad Vista.......2001-06-05

I got one for Xmas and it broke 3 months later. the screen cracked, keyboard stopped fuctioning. I opened it up and found it was poor;y assembled. the screen was not reenforced. The biggest piece of junk ever!

Cannot enter data without the separate keyboard.......2001-05-21

This is advertised as a very compact organizer and seems like a great value at first... then you realize that without the "convenient" keyboard, there is no way to enter data at all. I figured you'd at least be able to enter numbers by hitting the up and down arrows, but no such luck. That means you don't only have to carry around the compact unit, but also the not-so-compact plug in keyboard. I'm going to try and return this. I hope they take it back (cannot be repackaged due to annoying plastic package that you have to cut with scissors to open).

Great Buy.......2001-05-09

It is great for the the person who wants something simple.
