Digital camera reviews of Fujifilm Finepix S700 7.1MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Zoom
Digital camera Review: 2 S700's now broken/DON'T use in humidity!
Summary: 1 Stars
I love everything about this camera (features, pictures, etc.) except for one important factor: I've had two in a row completely die and Fuji is in my opinion less than helpful.
S700 #1: I purchased this camera for a trip to Jamaica. Being a new camera, we were very careful that it didn't get wet or sit in the sun, but several days into our trip, to my great heartbreak, it suddenly would not turn on. I contacted Fuji when we got back. Over the phone they explained that using regular AA (non-rechargeable) batteries would often cause the internal battery to fail and that this was probably the problem but I would have to wait and find out. After a very long wait (4+ weeks) I was informed that the inside of the camera was corroded. They would not honor the warranty. I explained that, although Jamaica is a very humid island, it was never exposed to water. Several phone calls, many unreturned messages, and giving them a deadline before I would contact the Better Business Bureau later, I was finally able to speak with a supervisor and asked whether taking it to a humid area would void the warranty. He admitted that simply the humidity probably had done this damage but explained that since there was corrosion they couldn't help me. They did offer me to "trade up to a different model" using their "loyalty program" (which one would assume would mean getting some value for the old camera), but in reality this didn't save me very much money at all. I was simply purchasing a refurbished camera directly from Fuji at a slight discount from the new-camera price (to my recollection this was maybe 15% or so). I begrudgingly opted to do this because I couldn't afford another brand new camera and needed one and got a new (refurbished) S700. This also meant that camera #2 would have no warranty.
S700 #2: Approximately a year later, I uploaded some pics. When I went to use the camera again, this one also is completely dead. It will not turn on. I tried charging my batteries, then purchased new rechargeable batteries, charged them up, but nothing. This camera never went anywhere near a humid country or anything. I contacted Fuji again and was informed that I will have to mail it in at my cost, wait 4 weeks, and they will contact me by snail mail with an estimate which I can choose to accept or deny. :-(
C'mon Fuji, you can do better than this. I just want a WORKING camera (like I paid for twice now)! I really do take care of my cameras and don't do anything that shouldn't be considered "normal use."
If you want a camera that is going to last longer than a year, in my experience this is not it.
