Fujifilm FinePix E550 Zoom review

 

DPReview takes a look at Fujifilm's E550 6.3 megapixel camera, which is basically the same camera as the FinePix F810 but in a plastic body and without the widesceen LCD and with AA batteries instead of a lithium ion battery pack. Just like the F810,...

Fast at everything it does, at least when the flash is off. Takes very good pictures.Decent zoom range includes true wide angle. Controls intelligently laid out and easy to understand. Good-sized, easy to read LCD. Good video ability makes camera even...

Underpowered flash can slow camera down, especially when shooting at telephoto. Can't zoom when shooting video. We wouldn't mind seeing a few more scene modes. Uses xD memory, which is more expensive and than other memory-card formats.

You won't miss shots with the 6MP FujiFilm FinePix E550, and you'll be very satisfied with the photos you create, which give the 7MP competition a run for its money. The camera starts quickly, focuses quickly and has very little shutter lag. The zoom lens

Excellent resolution in 12MP mode, very good in 6MP mode, Vivid, vibrant colors, Low noise, ISO 800 setting (only 3MP, but low noise), Clean, sharp results, Excellent photographic controls, Useful 32.5 - 130mm zoom range wider than normal, Fast...

No control over quality (JPEG) settings at 6MP, Slightly high contrast - cannot be changed in-camera, Tendency towards slight underexposure (exposes for highlights), 6MP images look over sharpened (changing sharpness setting helps slightly), 4-shot...

The FinePix E550 Zoom is an incredibly capable camera that punches above its weight both in terms of features and image quality.

The FinePix E550 Zoom was announced at the end of July 2004. The E550 is essentially the same camera as the FinePix F810 (see note below) in a less expensive plastic body, and without the widescreen LCD or 16:9 shooting mode, AA batteries instead of a...

Fuji Finepix E550 Digital Camera Camera

 

Using a 6.3-megapixel CCD, the $350 FinePix E550 fared very well in our lab tests, edging out the two other cameras we tested this month to earn a score of Very Good for its image quality. In its default, automatic modes, the FinePix E550 captured...

Running on two rechargeable AA batteries, the E550 managed 325 shots in our battery tests--a good showing, but not the best battery life we've seen

Fujifilm FinePix E550 review

 

the Fujifilm FinePix E550 digital camera was introduced in July 2004. This new model looks a lot like the FinePix 810 digital camera but is presented like a 'no-nonsense' camera, or in other words, it's a digital camera from the 'E' series FinePix...

The FinePix E550 did please me a lot. The camera is not perfect, but I can imagine that the owner of a Fujifilm E550 digital camera will be more than satisfied. The camera works with a high resolution which might be called an exception for an amateur...

Fujifilm Finepix E550 Review

 

The recommended retail price of the Fuji Finepix E550 in the UK is £349.99 and in the US it is $399.99

The Fujifilm Finepix E550 improves on its cheaper siblings, the E510 and E500, and is definitely a quicker and more capable camera. If you are interested in action photography or simply want a more responsive camera, then the E550 is the model for you....

Fuji FinePix E550

 

More than just a basic "point & shoot" camera, the Fuji FinePix E550 offers the best of both worlds in terms of exposure control. Automatic and "Scene" modes simplify operation for point-and-shoot users, while a range of exposure options including a...

While the handgrip makes the camera's dimensions a little tight for most shirt pockets, this camera is still quite compact at 4.1 x 2.5 x 1.4 inches (105 x 63 x 34.4 millimeters). The hybrid metal/plastic body is surprisingly light at 10.1 ounces (285...
