dodonnell's Review of Fuji Finepix S5000
19th Oct 2007
Overall Rating
- Value for money
It worked great for 12 months
Bad Points
After 13 months, it no longer works properly.
General Comments
The Fuji S5000 has a memory chip in it which retains the day/date/time information, but after 12 months to 2 years this chip losses its capacity to hold a charge therefore losing the date/time. Fuji wants $250 to replace the chip! My camera failed a few weeks out of warranty. Each time I change batteries, I have to reset date and time. What a pain in the neck!

I disagree with this review because...The xd memory card is the problem, not the camera. I deal in digital memory every day and see SD and flash memory cards go bad for no reason at all.
If you went to wal-mar you could probably get another xd memory card with twice the memory at half the cost.
