Fujifilm FinePix XP170 Review

Well...for $200, we have come to expect a little more for our money. The Fuji XP170 has a decent spec list: it is rugged. It is waterproof. It is dustproof. It is freezeproof. However, the image quality is lackluster and the video is just acceptable.

Waterproof ; Shockproof ; Dustproof ; Freezeproof

Maximum aperture is too slow ; Images are soft in the corners ; Image quality is below average

Fujifilm FinePix XP170

Essentially the same camera as the XP150 but with wireless, the XP170 features the same waterproof (33ft) and durability (6.5ft) ratings as its predecessor. The XP150 is a very recent model so we're a bit confused by the necessity for yet another...

Best Camera for the price

This camera at 16mps and 24 to 720mm zoom is the best camera at this price point. The HS30EXR outperforms cameras at 3X the price. HD movie capability, and shooting in RAW and JPEG or both is unquestionably a good deal for an amateur photographer who...

Just Wonderful

I am so happy with this purchase. I have been searching for a good camera that wouldn't break my bank. It is so easy to use and has so many features. I am learning it slowly but am so impressed with the quality of pictures I can get.
