FinePix HS50EXR Digital Camera - OPEN BOX
(FJFPHS50EXROB)
Pros: Unbelievable range zoom capability without having to carry around a bag of lenses. After coming from a Fuji S5000 I feel like I've died and gone to camera heaven. Pretty feature rich for a very amateur photographer like myself. Gives me the ability, after some practice, to take pics that look professional with a couple of selections on the knobs. I personally also like the manual zoom.
Cons: S5000 used AA batteries. HS50 uses a specific battery so I have to insure I have at least one extra charged and with me at all times. With AA batteries (even though I used rechargeable), in an emergency situation, I could purchase AA batteries anywhere.
Mechanically the zoom lens is not silky smooth. It has a lit rough sound and feel. I was told on the "dpreview forum" that this is common with Fuji bridge cameras.
Other Comments: Because of the rough sound and feel of the zoom lens, I'm not sure I would have bought it if I had held it in my hands first. But, that's one of the shortcomings of online purchases. After researching, I felt this was the camera for me, but could not find one local to take for a "test drive". So, I took the chance and bought it sight unseen. I'm ok with the purchase.
Beach camera was very quick to ship the camera. However, I was a bit surprised that the camera was not better packaged. The camera (in it's original packaging) was placed in a larger box with literally no padding. When It arrived at my home the camera was literally sliding all over the box.
Yes, I recommend this product
