Fuji HS10 user review

Great Camera with usability far beyond that of normal point and shoots. Zoom range is incredible considering the cost to match its range in a DSLR system. The build quality is rather good considering the cost.
Pros:
  • Great Camera with usability far beyond that of normal point and shoots
  • Zoom range is incredible considering the cost to match its range in a DSLR system
  • The build quality is rather good considering the cost.
Cons:
  • Soft images in both RAW and JPG
  • Resolution on EVF is quite low

  • Consistent sharpness except near ultra-wide
  • Very low optical distortion
  • Impervious to chromatic aberrations
  • Good color response
  • Accurate focus system
  • Short shutter-lag

  • Low resolution LCD
  • Expensive
  • Softer images
