Fuji includes their Finepix Viewer and Hyper Utility HS-V2 version 3 RAW file converter software with the S9100, which provides basic image cataloging and editing features. This can crop, rotate and otherwise manipulate images, while the RAW file converter can process raw images in a number of ways for maximum image quality: a feature that an increasing number of photographers are using to get the most out of their cameras. These software packages are adequate, but they aren’t going to replace a decent image editing program like Photoshop.

 

You connect the S9100 to a PC or Mac via the USB 2.0 port, while the A/V port allows you to view your images and listen to the sound captured on the microphone on a TV. This only provides a composite video output, so don’t expect high def quality.

 

Full support is offered for DPOF print ordering, so you can select image to print in the camera, them pop out the card, put it into a printer and get your prints. PictBridge support is also included, so you can connect to a PictBridge printer and print without a PC.

 

4 AA batteries of both the disposable and rechargeable varieties can be used, which is flexible: you can use rechargeables when you can, but use a set of disposables if they run out on the road. Fuji didn’t supply any figures for battery life, but the previous model (the S9000) only got about 140 shots from a set of 4 batteries.

 

Slots for both CompactFlash and XD Picture cards are included, but these can’t be used at the same time: you have to choose which one to save images to in the setup section of the on-screen menu. Images can’t be copied between the two, which is also a pity. The S9100 supports CompactFlash cards with capacities up to 4GB and xd-Picture Cards of up to 2GB.

 

Picture Stabilization - The S9100 includes a picture stabilization mode, but this is purely electronic: there is no moving element in the lens or supporting the sensor. We weren’t able to test the effectiveness of this feature.
