    This isn't the smallest camera out there, however the in-camera technology and features make this a very versatile camera indeed. Turning the flash off did mean there is a tendency of the F200EXR over compensating to get the shot and pumping up the ISO. While this means you do get that image pretty much regardless of the situation, the results can be a little noisy. The upshot to all this however, is that you've got the shot in the bag rather than a burred mess when you... Read more

    The FujiFilm FinePix F200EXR is a 12Mp compact camera equipped with the company's new Super CCD EXR chipset. The plus-sized sensor has some very interesting tricks up its sleeve, including the ability to reduce noise by grouping pixels together, and a D-range Priority mode that captures the same image twice and then merges the results for improved dynamic range. What's more, all you have to do is press the shutter release button and the FinePix F200EXR will do the rest. Read more

    In spite of a few irritating details (no HD video or HDMI socket, no HD LCD screen or automatic image rotation…), the FinePix F200EXR delivers excellent image quality and benefits from exemplary processing of electronic noise up to 800 ISO. Responsive and good across the board (stabilised 28-140 mm zoom) the F200EXR will be attractive to those looking for a fully automtic compact. Read more

  1. The Cream of the Crop

    I purchased this camera for the sole purpose of just having a supposedly good digital camera. After being shipped to me, it sat in my closet for approximately 6 months until my cousins wedding. In my family, I am usually the one enjoying the festivities. Not the one trying to embrace every second with a momentum. On this occasion, I decided to take my FUJIFilm Finepix F200EXR Digital Camera for a spin. I took a bunch of pictures because you never know which ones you... Read more

    Got mine for £204.98 from Amazon two weeks ago. I am no expert but think the images are very good. I like the fact it does the thinking for me  -  I just put it on 'EXR' and it takes the best shot it can. Very fast 'startup in my opinion. Very Impressed so far. Read more

    I got this camera because it was touted as a great point and shoot camera for low light situations. Although it is a solid camera that can take good pictures, I don't really agree with this description. As previous reviews have mentioned, the camera chooses crazy ISO values when set to the auto exr mode and to some extent to all of the exr modes. The high ISO values may convey some benefit that I'm not aware of but the end result is really grainy, noisy pictures that in... Read more

    My previous Finepix Digital camera was stolen and this now does not seem so bad anymore, because this camera is even better, nice feel to it, makes great pictures and is easy to operate. The price is very competitive and I can only recommend this to everybody who loves taking Photos - it also fits in any handbag/pocket and is therefore ready whenever you want it to be! Read more
