The Fujifilm FinePix HS10 ties with its direct rival, the Olympus' SP-800UZ, for offering the world's longest zoom range on a non interchangeable lens camera.

Super-zoom digital cameras have been around for a long time, but it seems that recently most of the manufacturers are treading water with their designs, with only one or two models in their range and only updating them at irregular intervals with more powerful sensors and ever-longer zoom ranges. The only company that seems to put any effort into the super-zoom market is Fujifilm, which has no fewer than nine such cameras in its range, including the FinePix S2500HD, the outstanding FinePix S200 EXR and today's review camera, the new FinePix HS10.

The HS10 uses one of the latest backlit sensors, in which the grid of electrical circuits is placed behind the light-receptor layer, rather than in front. This means the receptors themselves can be slightly larger, gathering more light and generating less noise.

Die Fujifilm FinePix HS10 tritt mit ihrer Ausstattung, der Formgebung und dem Gewicht in Konkurrenz zu DSLR-Kameras: Mechanischer Zoom-Ring, Blitzschuh und das RAW-Format sprechen ambitionierte Fotografen an. Die Bildqualität bleibt aber auf gutem Kompaktkamera-Niveau, bei der Auslöse-Geschwindigkeit gehört die HS10 sogar zu den lahmen Modellen.

Long before budget DSLRs, Fuji led the way with the bridge camera. As DSLRs have become cheaper and compacts cleverer, however, there has been an obvious squeeze on this area of the market and the bridge camera has had to offer more for the user.The HS10 is considerably lighter and cheaper than its DSLR and lens equivalent, and is still relatively compact, making it easy to carry with you.

The HS10 is a camera that enthusiasts will appreciate, but certain aspects of it can be improved upon.

The Fujifilm FinePix HS10 is one of two cameras that have a 30x optical zoom lens, with the other being the Olympus SP-800UZ. However, this shooter is more advanced, offering users full manual exposure control, RAW format image capture, and employs a backside-illuminated (BSI) image sensor. The FinePix is oriented toward enthusiasts who want a snapper that offers a dSLR-like shooting experience without the hassle of switching lenses.

Gerade für Spiegelreflex-Fotografen, die zwar die Leistungsfähigkeit einer SLR-Kamera schätzen, aber gerne auf das Mitführen vieler Objektive verzichten würden, soll die neue Finepix HS10 eine echte Alternative darstellen. Das 30-fach Zoomobjektiv deckt einen Brennweitenbereich von 24-720mm (äquivalent zu KB) ab und in Kombination mit dem 10,3 Megapixel BSI CMOS Sensor verspricht Fuji eine erstklassige Bildqualität. Motive lassen sich über das 3Zoll Schwenk-Display oder den elektronischen Sucher ins Visier nehmen. ...
