Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR digital camera

 

Those into wildlife photography or landscapes are spoilt for choice with the number of super zooms entering the market. These cameras may definitely not be a replacement for DSLRs but can surely provi

The Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR is priced at a market operating price of Rs. 24,999. This is a bit steep for a camera which such attributes. While the camera has done well during our zoom test, there are other options out there which sell for a lower...

Fujifilm FinePix HS20EXRDigital Camera Review

 

The FinePix HS20EXR is Fujifilm's most advanced ultrazoom this year, distinguished by full manual zoom and focus rings surrounding the lens assembly. We liked the feature-rich HS10, this model's predecessor, but this segment of the market has grown...

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

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 Review

 

Fujifilm thinks it can replace your heavy, bulky DSLR with its FinePix HS20. Sure, the HS20 packs a 30x optical zoom punch and offers continuous shooting at 8 fps.

Good image quality ; Nice manual zoom lens ; RAW shooting option

Slow to power up ; Some misses with AF ; DSLR-like size, weight

The HS20 is a fine super zoom with still image quality that is among the best I've seen from a camera in this class. In a way, I think Fuji did a disservice to the camera in suggesting it as a DSLR alternative, because in so many performance parameters...

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.

Maxell’s Encore EN-5 offer a rich, full sound for an affordable price, beating out nearly all of the headphones in the test. However, our testers didn’t think they were very comfortable, nor did this pair do a good job staying put during use....

nbsp ; Excellent sound quality ; Adjustable ; Can withstand multiple drops ; Water-resistant ; Light weight and wraps up tightly for easy portability

nbsp ; Didn’t take much force to remove the headphones during our force test ; Consumer testers didn’t find them very comfortable to wear for long periods of time ; Didn’t always stay put during use for our consumer testers
