FAQ:
Q: Does it come with a USB cable to download pictures?
A: No, it does not come with a USB cable. You have to insert the memory card into the computer to download the pictures onto your computer.
Q: Why do my videos have a clicking sound recorded on them?
A: If you are zooming while taking video, the camera microphone may be picking up the noise of the lenses movements. If the video is jerky along with the click, it points to your memory card being too slow to write the information from the camera.
Q: Does this camera come with a memory card?
A: No, most digital cameras do not come with a memory card. You have to buy the size you like separately. Some cameras have a limited amount of internal storage.
Q: Is this camera good for taking action shots at concerts?
A: The camera is lightweight and about half the size of an SLR. It is light enough to comfortably carry and can take decent action shots if you use the right settings.
Q: What does this camera come with?
A: This comes with a USB Cable (also attaches to TV), strap, software, manual, AA batteries, and a lens cover. It has an HDMI outlet that uses a Type A to C HDMI cord ($3.00 on eBay) that allows you to see the videos in the camera in HD on your television.
Q: How is the audio for video recording?
A: The sound quality isn't that great.
Q: Is this camera good enough to shoot music videos with?
A: No, the video quality isn't good enough for shooting music videos.
Q: Does this camera have automatic flash?
A: As far as we can tell, it doesn't flash on its own. There is a setting on the camera that you can select that will take two shots in a row - one with and without flash so you can see which you like better. Flash is easy to use - on the left side of the camera there is a black button that pops the flash up so it is ready to use. You just press down on the flash to close it.
Overall, the Fujifilm S4500 Compact Digital Camera is a souped-up point and shoot camera that performs well in nature photography and other situations with good lighting. It has many features and settings but may be too complex for some users. It comes with a USB cable, strap, software, manual, AA batteries, and a lens cover but does not include a memory card.
