FujiFilm's FinePix F200EXR, and its pricetag, get reviewed
While some early shots showed a lot of promise, a full review was necessary to ensure that FujiFilm's latest compact camera would be the performer we were hoping for -- and that it would live up to its $400 price. According to Photography Blog this 12 megapixel shooter doesn't disappoint, scoring very high marks for image quality and features. Its EXR mode, which can toggle between favoring resolution, dynamic range, or low noise, works more or less as advertised, bringing far more depth to shadows than your usual pocket cam can manage. Pictures were clear through ISO 800, but anything above that (up to its ludicrous ISO 12800 mode) were too noisy to be usable. Overall the cam was found to be a "veritable breath of fresh air" and a solid choice for a serious photographers who like air and don't want to lug their SLR everywhere.
FujiFilm FinePix digital cameras hands-on
Apparently FujiFilm's truckload of new cameras got redirected from Las Vegas to Hannover, but whatever the case, we'll take whatever hands-on we can get. Over in a small corner at CeBIT, FujiFilm was on hand with its recently-shipping F200EXR and the bulk of its pre-PMA crew. We didn't notice anything particularly special about any of 'em (cosmetically, we mean), though we must say, the lime green on the Z33WP really began to grow on us. See if it rubs you the same way in the gallery below.%Gallery-46466%
FujiFilm FinePix F200EXR gets priced
If the early snaps are any indication, FujiFilm's FinePix F200EXR might just be the kick in the ass the relentlessly boring compact cam market needs, but revolution won't come cheap -- Amazon just listed the 12 megapixel camera for $399. Considering you can buy any number of $200-$250 compacts that have superficially similar spec sheets, we'll see if consumers can be persuaded to shell out extra for pure image quality -- a tough sell even during happier economic times, but we're eternal optimists.[Thanks, Craig R.]
Fujifilm FinePix F200 EXR's photos shown off
We were fairly hopeful that Fujifilm's recently revealed 12 megapixel FinePix F200 EXR point and shoot would produce some great looking shots. Well, the fine folks over at Impress Watch have gotten their hands on one and taken it for a spin. In case you've forgotten, the camera is Fuji's first offering to boast its new 1/1.6-inch Super CCD EXR sensor, and it's got a 3-inch LCD, a 28-mm wide-angle 5x zoom lens, and is capable of 640 x 480 AVI video recording. The photos we're seeing are very crisp and detailed, with excellent color and very low noise. Though we won't know until we see for ourselves (still no word on pricing or availability for this one), we're preliminarily impressed. Check a few more after the break -- hit the read for full comparison shots with explanations.
FujiFilm's 12 megapixel F200EXR camera promises a revolution, might just deliver
Meet the FujiFilm FinePix F200 EXR, the company's first camera to host its new 1/1.6-inch Super CCD EXR sensor revealed back in September. The sensor promises high resolution, high sensitivity, and a wide dynamic range without the noise typical of these compact shooters. Spec-wise, we're looking at a 12 megapixel resolution, 3-inch LCD, 28-mm wide-angle 5x zoom lens with CCD-shift stabilization, a 5fps burst mode and 640 x 480 video recording in AVI (Motion JPEG) format, support for SD/SDHC and xD Picture Card storage, and plenty of automatic shooting modes as well as manual control over the shutter speed and aperture. No word on pricing or release but we can't wait for the reviews on this one. Until then, you'll have to settle for the preview over at Lets Go Digital.Read -- Official specsRead -- Preview
