The Fujifilm FinePix HS30 EXR is, like it´s predecessor, a super-zoom with its own very distinctive character and style. The specifications put it on a par with market-leading models from other manufacturers, but they really only tell part of the story. To really appreciate its qualities, you need to hold the FinePix HS30 EXR in your hand.
The things that mark it out are its rugged hefty construction, abundance of physical controls, its mechanically-coupled manual zoom and the unique EXR modes. Fujifilm has augmented those features with a redesigned sensor, hugely improved electronic viewfinder and LCD screen, and enhanced movie shooting. It´s still not a camera everyone will love, as ease of use isn´t one of its strengths and if you want to make the most of its pixel-combining EXR modes you´ll have accept a drop in image size to 8 Megapixels. But If you´re comfortable with physical controls and prefer to be given the option to experiment with a variety of shooting modes, some of them unique, you won´t be disappointed. I wasn´t and I have no hesitation in recommending it.
