Fujifilm's FinePix S4200 review: Long lens, low price

 

Editors' note: This review was conducted with the FinePix S4500 , which is nearly identical to the S4200 except as indicated below.

The Fujifilm FinePix S4200 offers a 24x zoom lens, AA batteries for power, an electronic viewfinder, and manual and semimanual shooting modes all at a bargain price.

The S4200 feels and performs like a low-end point-and-shoot. Requires a lot of light to get good photos and videos in auto.

A nice feature set and a long lens make the Fujifilm FinePix S4200 one of the better megazoom cameras available for those on a budget.
