Fujifilm FinePix XP170 Review

The Fujifilm FinePix XP170 "tough" camera is a sharp looking model, and it has a sturdy, well-built feel to it. A sturdy camera is exactly what you want when you're going to be using this camera underwater or in tough elements while on a hike. Although...

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 .

Fujifilm FinePix XP170

Fujifilm is among the leaders when it comes to making tough, underwater cameras. But then it's also among the leaders when it comes to pushing out multiple iterations of its camera ranges with great frequency. The XP-series has carried an affordable...

Waterproof, tough, easy to use, more affordable than much of the competition, wireless image transfer has its uses for backup and sharing images via a mobile device

Stiff shutter button, picture quality not great, poor quality LCD screen, wireless image transfer demands price jump, not that different from its predecessor, prone to finger obstructing lens, focusing can be slow

The XP-series has carried an affordable price legacy. Until now. The XP170’s addition of Wireless Image Transfer hoiks this price point up beyond its XP150 predecessor, acquiring a more sizable £220 asking price.
