Fujifilm FinePix F470 review

Fujifilm FinePix F470

Small size; easy operation; LCD viewable in full sunlight.

Few manual controls.

The compact Fujifilm FinePix F470 can get the job done, but its mundane features and mediocre image quality prevent it from rising above the crowd.

Fujifilm FinePix F470 Digital Camera - Full Review - The Imaging Resource!

Great, lightweight, slim design with good durability ; 6-megapixel CCD provides rich, dynamic color ; Very easy-to-use interface and controls ; 3x optical Fujinon lens provides good sharpness all the way to the corners ; Image processor gives good...

Maximum ISO is only 400 which produces very noisy, oversaturated images ; Hard to access camera's limited Manual control ; F-Chrome color setting creates images with garish "painted" effect ; Mode dial has tendency to accidentally change settings ;...

Along with being about as slim as you want a digital camera, the Fuji F470 is extremely light at just five ounces with the battery and memory card. Though the camera's polycarbonate body has a plastic feel in spots, the generous metal accents give it...

Fuji FinePix F470 Digital Camera Review

Available for less than $200, the Fujifilm FinePix F470 is a budget 6-megapixel camera aimed at beginners and those who want point-and-shoot simplicity more than trendy features

The F470 is a simply designed, compact camera. At just 5 ounces and 0.8 inches thick, it easily slips into a shirt pocket. The shiny camera cover may look cool, but it makes it a little hard to hold onto - there isn't anywhere for the fingers to firmly...

Fuji Finepix F470 Review

The Fuji Finepix F470 is among the most purely point-and-shoot cameras available, even exposure compensation is hidden away in a scene-mode called manual. It is successfully designed with simplicity in mind. While we would only recommend it for the...

Highly saturated colors, Good image sharpness, Great LCD visibility, Short shutter lag

Above average chromatic aberrations, Exposure compensation hidden in "manual" scene mode, Slow zoom controller, Short battery life

Fujifilm Finepix F470 Digital Camera Review

Hidden in the secret innermost recesses of the digital camera world is a tiny group that likes very compact cameras - cameras so small that they weigh in at one ounce (or less) for each megapixel of resolution. The diminutive Fujifilm Finepix F470...

Fujifilm FinePix F470 Review

The Fujifilm FinePix F470 is a stylish 6 megapixel entry-level camera which is priced below $250. What it lacks is a Fujifilm SuperCCD and uses a conventional CCD. So how will image quality turn up? Let's see.

Simple, user friendly and very compact ; Powerful flash ; Useful but few scene modes ; Big LCD with average visibility ; Good movie mode ; Good image quality and fairly low noise

LCD is low in resolution and only covers 97% of the frame ; Below average battery life ; No AF-assist beam ; Slow, limited continuous shooting ; Slow performance

The Fujifilm FinePix F470 is a 6 megapixel, 3x zoom entry-level camera. It's a good camera though its positives are on par with some other entry-level cameras: simple controls, compact size, big 2.5 inch LCD, movie mode and image quality.

Sharp pictures

Noise and chromatic aberration issues, Continuous shot mode slow

A low end six megalpixel camera, the F470 is a decent but not outstanding model that fails to differentiate itself from the myriad of compacts on the market.
