Fujifilm FinePix review

 

Fujifilm released three AA-battery-powered megazooms for 2011: the FinePix S2950, S3200, and S4000. These are full-size models with dSLR-like bodies offering 14-megapixel resolutions, 3-inch LCDs plus electronic viewfinders, and Fujinon optical zooms...

The Fujifilm FinePix S2950 has a wide-angle 18x zoom lens, takes AA-size batteries for power, and has a 3-inch LCD, an electronic viewfinder, and manual and semimanual shooting modes.

The S2950's performance and photo quality indoors and in low-light conditions are merely passable for its price.

A low-cost way to get an 18x wide-angle lens, the Fujifilm FinePix S2950 delivers merely OK photos and shooting performance.

Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR Review

 

The Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR is a new super-zoom digital compact camera. Looking and handling like a DSLR, the bridge-style Fujifilm HS20 EXR boasts a 30x zoom lens which covers a 35mm equivalent focal range of 24-720mm and also features mechanical...

The Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR builds on the success of the original HS10 predominantly by using a new 16 megapixel EXR sensor, which expands the ISO range up to 12,800, maintains a fast continuous shooting speed and slow-motion movies, and adds the...

Fujifilm HS20EXR

 

Lots of nice features to recommend it, if it weren't for severe performance issues

Strong color accuracy; Quality SLR-style handling

Lousy noise performance; Awful resolution results

Let’s start with a history lesson. A short one, don’t worry.

Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR

 

The Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR is a 16 Megapixel Super-zoom with a 30x stabilised optical zoom and a 3 inch flip-up LCD screen. Announced in January 2011 it replaces the 10 Megapixel HS10 with a newly designed 16 Megapixel sensor sporting some cunning...

24mm wide angle and manual zoom ring., Unique EXR modes reduce noise or boost DR., 1080p HD video., RAW shooting., Wide range of burst shooting modes

Manual barrel zoom not ideal for movies., Sluggish autofocus., Relatively large and heavy., Poor High ISO quality at full 16MP resolution

Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR Review

 

The FinePix HS20 is Fuji's latest entrant in the ultrazoom compact digital sweepstakes, and while the camera size, shape and feel mimic that of a DSLR and Fuji ad copy makes references to DSLR - like performance and image quality, potential buyers of...

Good still image quality, One touch video capture, Good shutter lag time, Generally good AF acquisition times, Manual zoom lens, RAW shooting option

DSLR-like size and weight, Manual focus ring small and a bit clumsy to use, Slow power up time, AF could be more precise with regard to focus point

Fujifilm Finepix HS20 EXR

 

The Finepix makes a strong case for itself; you get a 16-megapixel sensor, a tilt-capable LCD and a long range zoom lens

While you can buy cheaper SLRs the Finepix HS20 EXR scores points for its superb zoom lens and well-rounded overall performance.

Fuji Finepix HS20 EXR

 

The key is versatility and a mechanical 30X ultra-wide angle optical zoom lens covering 24-720mm more precisely than any of its peers is just the start. A high-speed CMOS sensor capable of capturing 16 megapixels images at 8 FPS and recording full...

Mechanical ultra wide to super telephoto lens, Stellar dynamic range in EXR-DR mode, Low image noise in EXR-SN mode, Consistent sharpness except near ultra-wide, Very low optical distortion, Impervious to chromatic aberrations, Good color response,...

This ultra-zoom provides an excellent feature set in an ergonomic design which emphasizes efficiency and quick access to photographic controls. Its unique mechanical 30X ultra-wide angle optical zoom lens, shared with its predecessor, is a pleasure to...

Fujifilm HS20 EXR

 

Can Fujifilm's latest feature-rich 30x superzoom deliver the image quality to match its DSLR styling?

30x zoom covers everything, High-speed movie shooting works well, EXR modes capable of good results

Image quality dissappoints, Quite big and bulky, Electronic viewfinder is horrible to use
