This review is from: Fujifilm FinePix XP30 14 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with Fujinon 5x Optical Zoom Lens and GPS Geo-Tagging Function (Orange)I just moved to Colorado and this is the first camera I have purchased.I chose it because I will be doing a lot of outdoor activities and this one seemed to have all the functions I would need to be satisfied.First test was taking it on a 3 day ski trip with my friends and it performed beautifully. I was taking pictures and videos on and off for about 8 hrs each day. The battery ran out the first day, but only towards the very end of the day after a lot of video and pictures being taken. I would recommend bringing an extra battery just in case, I did and it worked out great.I was in 20 degree weather the whole time and they say the batteries do worse in cold weather, so I can only imagine how they will perform in optimum conditions.The pictures and videos came out great...only problem with uploading the videos was the sound would not transfer over, but I believe it has something to do with a codec on Divx and will be fixed soon.I crashed pretty hard while taking video with the camera and there wasn't even a scratch on it. It looks like brand new after 3 hard days on the mountain and I would definitely recommend this camera for someone looking for a solid piece of equipment.
This review is from: Fujifilm FinePix XP30 14 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with Fujinon 5x Optical Zoom Lens and GPS Geo-Tagging Function (Orange)The camera feels great and easy to use. As all Fuji cameras (and I had few) it is very user friendly. The quality of photos and movies is second to none and you can take clips of HD and great photos especially with the automatic mode set.There were however 3 very disappointing points which we did not expected and are important to highlight:1. Most important - batteries. The camera has a unique battery that runs empty in minutes (even when GPS location search is permanently off. It would be easier if the camera simply was using AA batteries.2. GPS location - when on the result is just a sheet with latitudes and longitudes and we are still trying to figure out how to tag the photos with real places names.3. Clips - while zooming in/out while recording a clip/movie there are two problems: loosing focus and hearing the zoom action in the movie.
This review is from: Fujifilm FinePix XP30 14 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with Fujinon 5x Optical Zoom Lens and GPS Geo-Tagging Function (Orange)I went to the river and big disapoointment: as soon I took a picture under the water (just about 5 inches under it) it stopped working and a couple hours later there was moist into the screen. The camera continue working after a few hours. I took it back to the store. The battery has also a short life, I was taking the charger with my everywhere.
