The second of the cameras made ​​by Fujifilm today is the FinePix HS30EXR. It is also a bridge camera and shares most of its features with the FinePix HS25EXR, but is facing a more demanding public. Among the things shared by both models is its CMOS sensor EXR 16 megapixel or 30 optical zoom and image stabilization increases.

The Fujifilm FinePix HS30EXR also comes with a 3-inch LCD screen and electronic viewfinder, but in this case is somewhat larger (0.26 "versus the 0.2" of the FinePix HS25EXR). In addition, the HS30EXR includes an electronic level that was not in the FinePix HS25EXR. One of the fundamental differences between the two models is that the HS30EXR can shoot in RAW, with all that entails.

In addition, this camera uses a rechargeable battery instead of batteries and their autonomy is greater. If HS25EXR allows up to 400 shots per charge, the HS30EXR will reach 600. In my opinion these two differences amply justify the $ 499 it costs the FinePix HS30EXR, $ 100 more than his little sister.
