I would love some advice if this is worth it or if not what someone recommends! I can't go over $500.00.

Hi Junelle, Yes a radio slave will probably attach to your camera, but that does not mean it will work with your camera. I can’t find any info on the Fuji S5800, so I can’t be sure. Radio slaves fit into hot shoes; most cameras have these. The problem is that you will need to be able to control the camera manually, and you will need to turn off any pre flash that the camera might use for focus or red-eye reduction. The strobe system you picked is very cheap and so probably not reliable. If you are going to do a lot of product photography it might make sense to invest in good equipment and education, but if you need one or two images hire someone with skills in this specialty. If you have never done product photography just buying strobe gear will not give you quality photography. Thanks, John Siskin
