Verdict:	"The Fuji Finepix S5800 is one of the cheaper super zoom cameras. It is also one of the easier to use models as well. The lower price can be attributed to a few features being missing, such as image stabilisation. If you need zoom and your budget doesn't stretch to the more expensive models then this one is worth a closer look."
