Product review summary
This page is intentionally secondary to the manual page and exists to provide review-oriented context.
The Fujifilm Finepix S200EXR is a compact digital camera with a 12-megapixel Super CCD EXR sensor and Optical Triple Image Stabilized Zoom 14.3x (30.5-436mm); F/2.8-5.3. It features Pro Focus Mode using Fujifilm's new Multi-Frame Technology and Pro Low-light Mode, Dual Image Stabilization, and Multi Bracketing. The camera captures images to SD/SDHC memory cards and is powered by a Li-ion battery. Users have reported that the low light functions work well, producing bright and clear images with minimal noise. However, the camera can be difficult to hold steady for low light shots, and the design is lopsided, making it awkward for left-handed users. The software has not caught up to the camera yet, as users have reported difficulty processing Raw (.RAF) images. Overall, the camera is a great walk-around option with impressive low-light and general picture quality.
Pros:
- Impressive low-light image quality
- Pro Focus Mode and Pro Low-light Mode
- Dual Image Stabilization and Multi Bracketing
- Manual zoom ring on the lens barrel
Cons:
- Difficult to hold steady for low light shots
- Lopsided design awkward for left-handed users
- Software has not caught up to the camera yet
- No HD video quality
