My current wallet is tearing up to my shock (I've only had it for a few months), so I ordered a new one from Etsy last night. I saw someone on here had gotten one as well, and I like the design so thought why not try it? I've never had a wool wallet before.

PNY Micro Hook USB Stick (16 gb).

It looks pretty cool - but that's about it. It's pretty slow and it get's really hot when plugged in, so I wouldn't leave it plugged in for very long.


Not my photo.

A new Bridge to replace my 7 year old Fuji with a fried `Usb port...Technology on these has really moved on...I may have to read the manual...:D

You're going to have a bad time with fuji. I have a FujiFilm HS20, and it was horrible. Even at ISO 400, noises are visible. The depth of field looks like it's coming from a phone. You can barely see the blur. But it is possible to have the blur, if you're willing to zoom the thing.

And AA batteries? Are they serious?

Horrible sensor, horrible lens, horrible camera.

Well, I've taken a few shots...Auto / Manual..zoom etc. none of the symptoms you describe as yet.....But will keep an eye on things....The battery is not an issue...I have a dozen or so Sanyo eneloops for my MM BT KB and other devices so I won't be buying them. Depth of field in zoom shots although I haven't taken many is good...Maybe you just had a bad one? My old one was pretty good but 7+ years and a fried USB port meant time for a newbie....It didn't cost much, but if it starts mis-behaving, back it will go!

If you want a bridge i would recommend this one instead of Fuji:

I looked at the Lumix, but just wanted a cheap in-between...This one seems fine so far, will only really know when I get out and about with it...Not interested in the video...Just stills...@£159 it's pretty cheap too...If it proves unusable, I might consider the Panasonic though.

How about a Cannon Powershot SX40HS?

I'll see how I go....Plenty of other options out there...It's really just a fun camera...I wasn't planning on using it for serious stuff...Probably would not have replaced it if the old one hadn't fried it's USB port....Constant removal of media = trashed cards in the end.

The reviews do not lie. Fuji was a bad decision on your part. Canon, Nikon, Sony or Olympus you should have stayed with.

could you please tell me what brand is it? it looks really nice, just what i was looking for
 
That looks cool but does it really come with the case/tool box?

Looked like originally people were saying yes, but official list doesn't have it on there...unless it's the case for the 'copter.
 
Ok cool...thanks.

I read the article on examiner.com and they listed the "official" contents and didn't list the case.

I was hoping it came with that. Beast!
 
Finally...

The lens I have been dreaming of purchasing for years.
Nikon 70-200 mm f/2.8 ED VRII
