I had no problems using my s5100 as a webcam on a PC (i'm a mac user), I then decided to f=reinstall windows on the PC I have (its quite old and slow)... It now runs much better, but I cannot use it as a webcam anymore... It didn't need any drivers the first time around, but just in case I downlaoded all of the fuji oftware, still to no avail... oh well.... to the person who said s5500 wa Americas-- not true. I believe the s5100 was the predessesor to s5500, they are not the same. I bought an s5100 in the US...

*****PLEASE HELP***** my fuji s5500 wont power up even with brand new batteries, camera has not been dropped and was working on holiday untill went dead which i thought was empty battery however at the time was concerned as didnt remember seeing the low battery icon and generally when battery runs out you can still get it to power up a few times untill completely dead. fuji say it will cost £100 to fix and will extend warranty by 12 months!! big help

I want to use the camera for virtual tours and am having trouble changing focus setting from "central" to "area" in AF MODE. Any one got any ideas or had same problem?

I am also getting blurred pictures when snapping in 'auto' mode with 'SAF' lock on. I thought it might be my hand shaking so I put it on a tripod and still got blurred pictures of my children who were moving slightly. Any suggestions?

'What Dimitri says is wrong. Fiji S5500 is for Asia and America while S5100 is for Europe.Both models were released simultaneously. It is a great camera for its price. I am using it as a web Camera.All settings and zooming are to be done before attaching it to USB.Preferably you should use Wide angle and ISO 400 speed.You need a continuous light to illuminate the person.'

Hi, I had trouble with making it work as a webcam but go into the setup thing on your camera itself and where it says USB right click onto webcam hook it up via USB and it will detect straight away

Not so clear how to use it like webcam.Drivers are installed but...

s5100 and s5500 is NOT the same camera, s5500 is the updated and new version of the s5100, with some more functions, when s5500 came on the marked the production of s5100 stopped.

I just bought the S5500 (otherwise known as the S5100) and I agree with everything said in this review. It works well at both a point and shoot and as a manual everything (zoom, focus, apature, etc). If you're still new to photography, but want to work wi

I have had my S 5500 for about 4 months. It has been hard to fault. The best option I have found that most cameras in the price range cant do is the abilty to take photos in CCD raw mode. In short, this means you can take photos without jpeg compression, later converting to lossless tiff files. The images are stunning.

So just how do you get it to actually work as a web Cam? I cannot find instructions anywhere or drivers or software. I have XP Pro.

ken ()	0.0 / 5	Sat 8 Oct 05
i got mine to work easy as web cam. I just loaded the software from the cd supplied. You have to go into the camera setup too, where it saysusb mode and change the setting to web and it works well. Only complaint i have is it is a bit dark. see page 81 of your manual and it gives the description of each part. Enjoy. ken. bomberl@hotmail.com

Great camera, except for a somewhat annoying problem, you cannot operate the zoom while in movie capture mode. Came as a bit of a surprise considering the overall quality of the camera.

personally i think the camera is crap loads of fancy features but it can't even take a photo without blury pictures resulting when in auto mode.i mean who has time on holiday to start futtering about with settings ? by the time you get it set up the subject is half a mile away

does anyone know what is the difference between s5500 and s5100?

S5500 and S5100 are the same cameras with two different names

Hacked off ()	0.0 / 5	Sat 8 Oct 05
Bought a new S5500 and I am so hacked off with the fact that it will not function as an ordinary webcam due to the lack of a proper driver on the install cd. Windows xp recognises it as a webcam but refuses to install .. It trys to search over the web but there is no chuffing software to make it work . Pure crass someone at fuji must be braindead.

I think Steve Vladimir's camera must be faulty, if he has trouble with auto focus then just change the focus types to one that suits him. I have some trouble with low light focus, but so do most cameras. I have expensive digital cameras in my studio & bought this as a small point & shoot for my holiday, then found it is just as good as cameras four times the price!! Buy this camera it's great, you can even buy filter & lenses for it from ebay!! to make it a twenty times zoom! it focuses fast, it stores & recalls images fast, it's easy to use, I love the way that in manual modes you can choose just to overright one setting & leave the rest on auto!! Superb. Comes with the best flash I have ever seen for it's size. This camera is superb, one of the best!

I cannot use this as a web cam for some reason (no drivers out there) but it's a great camera. The raw feature is burried in the setup menu... and unless you use raw, the pictures are noisy. I'm also a little disappointed that a lot of features cannot be used in raw mode.
