Fujifilm's FinePix S20 Pro–Small Camera, Big Results Unique Chip Makes It Stand Out On A Crowded Field

 

I bought a Fujifilm FinePix S1 Pro the minute it came out-ditto with the FinePix S2 Pro. A box containing the new FinePix S20 Pro digital camera arrived recently on my doorstep along with wide angle and telephoto accessory lenses. What follows are my...

I don't want to get bogged down with specs so we can get to the real meat of the report, and that is how the camera performs, so I'm just hitting some of the high points or areas that stand out. One thing that will really catch your eye is the fact...

Fuji FinePix S20 Pro

 

What do I mean by 3.1 + 3.1 megapixel? To understand that, you need a better idea about how the SuperCCD SR sensor works

6X optical zoom lens ; Robust performance ; Full manual controls ; Low redeye ; Hybrid AF system helps camera focus quickly in good lighting ; First rate movie mode ; Super macro mode lets you get 1 cm from your subject ; Great continuous shooting...

Way overpriced ; Images too noisy at 6M setting ; SuperCCD SR technology improves dynamic range, but only noticeable in certain situations ; EVF/LCD too dark in low light situations (and low light focusing isn't great, either) ; Full shutter speed...

The S20 Pro would be a camera I'd seriously recommend if it cost about 50% less. But it doesn't, and the image quality does not compare to other cameras in the S20's price range (which includes D-SLRs). As was the case with the F700, I expect the S20's...
