Finepix s602 compatible power adapters?

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know if the Finepix s602 will work with non-fuji-made, but
made-for-fuji 5V power adapters, like this one?
http://www.jessops.com/search/viewproduct.cfm?PRODUCT=OPTFUJ5VACA. There
isn't a lot of info on the Jessops site, and the guy in the shop reckons
they will work, but he's not 100% sure.

cheers,
Marylis

 

Hi Marylis,

I would expect the Optech power adapter to work as it is designed for the
job, however it may not be designed for international voltages, where the
Fuji one will definately be.

If this does not affect you then get one in to your local branch (should
take around a week from one transferred from another store), and ask the
assistant to test it on a same/similar (Fuji 5000/7000) model thats in the
store. This way your camera will not be harmed and items returned to
manufacturer's if anything does go wrong.

Saying that, if it is only required for downloading images to pc, then a
card reader (or PCMCIA adapter for laptops), would be a much better option.
These start at £12.99 with Jessops, though you can find cheaper ones on the
web and ebay.

Cheers,
Stephen
