It's not a problem but the thoughts there.It can even do videos, which many can these days, although the video setting are pretty basic but you do get a cracking bit of footage from video and brilliant photos from the stills setting.It gives out some brilliant colours, even giving you the options of black and white and other options, with each one giving as good a result as many other cameras out there.The zoom is fantastic, being able to zoom in so close that you can see the hairs in the birds nostrils as it flies high over head.So, if you're after the a good price camera that is a step up to the SLR world then this is worth thinking about. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Purchase *by K***T on 21 May 2013* Bought this camera for my wife who wanted to upgrade her Fuji Finepix compact AX250 which she had been completely satisfied with.The S2980 was the perfect replacement as the features were very easy to adjust to, being very similar to the AX250 but much more user friendly.The camera produced perfect shots from first use, including excellent sunset exposures as well as being able to deal with high contrast shots in bright Florida sunshine.The facility to change from live view to eye level viewfinder is a real bonus.The video setting and the ability of the camera to maintain a sharp image when following fast moving subjects is faultless.I would highly recommend this camera. ### ⭐ Unlucky? - apparently not *by S***T on 14 September 2013* I have updated this review on the strength (!) of the other one star reviews this camera has been given. There seems to be little doubt that you have a good chance of buying a defective camera. Like other reviewers, it is impossible to understate the aggro that results in a camera breaking down when you are on holiday. Subsequently I have tried to get this fixed but it was too expensive to do so, considering that there is no long-term guarantee that the problem will not recur......Bought this about 18 months ago to replace a similar one. It's a fine camera, but after a few months the lens stopped moving and I got it fixed under the guarantee. And a few months ago, a few days into my big summer hols., it happened again. To say that I wasn't pleased would be an understatement! Buyer beware. The problem seems to arise when the camera is switched on with the lens cover on. ## Frequently Bought Together - Fujifilm 14MP Digital Camera With 18x Optical Zoom, Black - SZHAIYIJIN SD Card Reader for iPhone, Memory Card Reader with USB Camera Adapter Plug and Play Trail Game Camera Viewer Supports SD and TF Card MicroSD Card Adapter for iPad No App Required - SanDisk 128GB Extreme PRO SDXC UHS-I Memory Card - C10, U3, V30, 4K UHD, SD Card - SDSDXXD-128G-GN4IN --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/54846247-fujifilm-finepix-s2980-digital-camera-14mp-18x-optical-zoom-3](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/54846247-fujifilm-finepix-s2980-digital-camera-14mp-18x-optical-zoom-3) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
