 Fujifilm FinePix S9000 review : At the time Fujifilm proved with the FinePix F10 that it was well possible to create noise-free images above ISO 400 with compact cameras, and that it was only a matter of time until a top model with the same technique would be introduced. The Fuji FinePix S9000 digital camera has become this top model. A very special digital camera, not just because of the Super CCD HR with Real Photo Technology, but also because of the resolution of no less than 9 Megapixels and a large optical zoom range running from 28-300mm (equivalent of a 35mm camera). As far as specifications and innovations are concerned, the FinePix S9000 is a really interesting camera. We were able to test the Fuji S9000 for a longer time.

 Fuji FinePix S9000 digital camera
The camera has a firm grip, lays perfectly stable in ones hand and it feels like you have been using this camera for some time. Though media are claiming and almost dictating us that 4 - 5 Megapixels is enough, we believe that Fujifilm is proving that high resolution like the 9 Megapixels of the Fujifilm S9500 offers more freedom in shooting and printing. Of course we do not need extra noise, but Fujifilm has its own secret powerful tool, the Super CCD HR image sensor, one remarkable sensor!
Fujifilm Real Photo Technology
A hallmark of Fujifilm's Real Photo Technology is its ability to reduce the amount of graininess or "noise" in digital pictures. This noise is often apparent in high-resolution photos, particularly those shot at high ISO-equivalent sensitivities. With Real Photo Technology, the Fuji S9000 can take pictures at ISO 1600 - at full resolution. Other benefits of Real Photo Technology include speed of operation (the Fujifilm FinePix 9000 has a high-speed start-up time of only 0.8 second with shutter lag down to 1/100 second) and longer battery life.
Fujifilm S9000 digital camera - Fujinon lens
In addition to offering low noise processing, the new Fujifilm FinePix S9000 is equipped with a bevy of features that will appeal to the photo hobbyist. One of those features is a world-class Fujinon 10.7x wide-angle optical zoom lens that is the equivalent of having a 28-300mm zoom on a 35mm camera. This zoom range is ideal for a wide variety of shooting situations and thus makes the purchase of additional lenses unnecessary.
Fujifilm S9000 camera - xD Picture memory card
Naturally xD Picture memory cards fit in the Fujifilm S9000 camera. Fujifilm is one of the founders of this ultra compact memory card, isn't it? Besides xD Picture cards the FinePix S9000 is also able to work with CompactFlash cards and the Microdrive. Remarkably enough Fujifilm never mentions the CompactFlash but only the Microdrive that is used a lot less. Anyway, that is a totally different discussion. Like many other Fujifilm models, amongst them the FinePix S3 Pro D-SLR camera, the FinePix S9000 uses common AA batteries for energy. A power source that can be purchased on every street corner.
