Advantages: Huge zoom, Focus Tracking, Easy to use Disadvantages: Bulky, A little slow, AA batteries are a bit inconvenient
The Fuji FinePix S1500 is the latest incarnation of the very successful FinePix S1000fd. It is very SLR-like in appearance and the added bulk of the battery-holder/grip does give it an assured feeling in your hands. Of course, this can be a disadvantage, and if you want a camera that you can just slip in-and-out of your pocket, then maybe a slimmer compact should be considered.
The 12x optical zoom is excellent and it equates to 33-396mm in 35mm terms - and if this isn't enough, there is a 5.7x digital zoom feature too.
The menus are friendly and easy to navigate, and there are helpful explanatory prompts that appear on thew LCD screen when the mode-dial setting is changed.
There are 14 preset scenes to choose from, each setting the camera to its optimum settings for the given scenario, but on top of this, the camera can be used ...
Advantages: Immersive story line, believable acting, soundtrack Disadvantages: Very basketball orientated - difficult to understand if you don't know much about basketball
I purchased this film many years ago, in fact I think it was about 6 years ago, maybe 7, and I watched it for the millionth time last night and thought to myself "people really need to know how good this film is"... Because lets face it, if you haven't already heard of it, and you don't love basketball then why should you ever bother to watch it? Right?
Well hopefully i'll convince you its a good idea. But i'll make sure I show you why I like it, and why some people may not.
Well firstly, the story. The film is a story of 2 next door neighbors that have been living next to each other since they were kids. Both of them (a boy and a girl) love the sport of basketball. The boy, Quincy, (Omar Epps) has dreams of making it big time in the NBA (National Basketball Association) and has all the tools and money to do so, due to his father being ...
Advantages: Lots of channels Disadvantages: No scart cable!
The Channels:
When I first received the Grundig 1500 I was looking forward to watching the same variety of channels in my room as I can downstairs, (we have the basic Virgin Media package) however, when I set it up (I'll go through the set-up process later) I found out that I had probably even more channels than I did downstairs. Just counting them all up now I have found that I can view around 90 television and radio channels/stations, including some like BBC 3 + 4, ITV 2,3,+ 4, Film 4, and of course those shopping channels!
Setting it up:
When I first got it out of the box the immediate thing I noticed was that I had no scart cable, so I looked in the instructions and sure enough it informed me that a scart cable did not come with the box, thankfully my brother had a broken freeview box (not this model) so I was able to use ...
