Otherwise, the specs look nice enough.]]>Jul 22nd 2009 1:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/Jul 22nd 2009 12:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/Jul 22nd 2009 1:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/Jul 22nd 2009 1:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/
And come *on*, comparing movie mode (something pretty much a given) with exotics like MP3 playing, bluetooth, and wireless? You might as well say "zoom, schmoom, it's just a useless, unnecessary feature for dweebs". HD movie mode is asked for because it's available in lesser cameras, and because it isn't that hard to implement, and making it available won't exactly affect the still picture quality. If they've spent the time to develop so many silly features, why not make one of the more common/useful features available?]]>Jul 22nd 2009 7:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/Jul 22nd 2009 12:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/
If you have frame rate to burn, combining a bunch of quick images rather than taking one long exposure might have some benefit in low light, but I can't quite see how at the moment.

The "pro" focus sounds hilarious, I can't wait to see how that shakes out.]]>Jul 22nd 2009 1:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/S200EXR - OK, they fitted a 14x zoom above the F200 EXR sensor. But for a camera this size and price I prefer a DSLR, thanks, it has a way bigger sensor and better picture quality.

I see no point on any of the models. ]]>Jul 22nd 2009 6:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/
The only real issue I see is that to me, this would effectively be a 5MP camera, taking me a step back quality-wise from my old f30.]]>Jul 22nd 2009 4:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/22/fujifilm-gets-official-with-finepix-f70exr-z37-s200exr-and-j38/But how is F70EXR defeating the purpose of EXR sensor?

Then you guys will say "Oh it is no longer fit in a pocket....better to buy a DSLR".
Go and find a DSLR with 10X zoom that you can put into your pocket....??

If you don't need large zoom, i think F200EXR is a better choice.
However as a compact long-zoom camera, if the performance and IQ are acceptable, F70EXR can be very good camera...]]>Jul 27th 2009 5:44AM
