Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP (Digital Compact Cameras)

Superzooms are flying off the shelves of late. There have been plenty of new models in the past couple of years and, crucially, they've got a whole lot better than they used to be.

Best-in-class viewfinder, manual zoom and focus rings, huge zoom range, well designed, a cut above the HS20EXR, close-focus abilities

Image quality lacks detail at crucial mid-high ISO settings, continuous autofocus has limited use, autofocus live preview ‘cuts out’ at longer focal lengths, overexposure issues

The HS30EXR is a notable improvement over the HS20EXR model. It has a best-in-class viewfinder and the inclusion of a rechargeable li-ion battery is welcome. The significant 24-720mm lens will be a deal-maker for many, yet the 16MP sensor can’t quite...

With its slide open and shoot faceplate, mainly metal build, internally stacked lens and glossy good looks, the svelte and pocket friendly Fujifilm FinePix Z900EXR logically follows on from last year's very similar Z800EXR, a previous Hot Product here...

Very reasonable asking price, good quality build, operation is as simple as slide open the faceplate and shot (or record), easy to use and well implemented touchscreen interface, Full HD video with stereo sound and use of zoom

Common pocket camera imaging issues such as pixel fringing, lacks much in the way of a handgrip to prevent occasional camera shake because of the slimline proportions

A value added, feature packed 16-megapixel point and shoot camera with a glossy slide open and shoot faceplate at the front plus huge 3.5-inch widescreen touch panel LCD at the rear lending it the required wow factor

Traditionally "waterproof" and "pocketable" haven't really sat well together, with the sealing process often adding bulk to compact cameras. This isn't the case with the Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP, which offers weatherproofing whilst maintaining small...

Waterproofing, compact, easy to use

Overall image quality, ISO noise, lens flare

Compact and waterproof, the Z33WP will appeal to many, but is let down by overall image quality

The F770EXR is an extremely handsome camera. Its matt black rubber-like texture looks and feels luxurious, and with the help of its curved handgrip it sits comfortably in the hand. GPS is built in, as is a 20x zoom lens, 1080p video capture and full...

The controls and video mode could be better, but superb image quality and nippy performance make it a strong contender

Another tough compact gets the TrustedReviews test-bench treatment. Did it survive to tell the tale?

Built tough for active outdoors use ; Good underwater flexibility ; GPS functionality now includes directional info

Low-resolution screen is very poor quality ; Screen is also easy to scratch ; Image quality quickly falls apart above ISO 400

You'll likely be attracted to the Fujifilm FinePix HS30 EXR by its long zoom and high resolution, and you wouldn't be disappointed. It's packed with features, produces a great set of pictures and takes no time at all to get to grips with.

Great controls ; Extremely long zoom ; Quite light and fairly compact ; Sharp output ; Articulated display

Slightly slow video compensation for lighting changes

In many respects, the HS30 EXR and X-S1 are very similar cameras. They both look and work like a captive-lens dSLR, they have similar controls and broadly similar features.

With it's 15x zoom, advanced GPS and new Motion detection function, the 16MP FinePix F600EXR certainly looks good on paper

Large zoom range ; Excellent picture quality ; GPS functionality

Difficult to set panoramas ; Only black model is rubberised

If you’re looking for a compact camera with long zoom and impressive feature set for under the £200 mark, the FinePix F600EXR should certainly be on your list of contenders. It’s bound to be popular with travellers – upto 30x zoom, GPS, RAW shooting,...

Big zoom compact camera with an EXR sensor goes up against Panasonic's FZ

Extremely fair ricing ; Rock solid build and sorts car styling ; Many latest secs ; As easy to use as ointing and shooting

Images betray that it's a oint-and-shoot camera ; Automatically bums u the ISO in low light to roduce rather noisy hotos ; Relatively small sensor and high ixel count

We can see the ideal audience for this camera being young families who want an unfussy point and shoot camera that doesn't cost a packet but does a bit of everything and has the advantage of full HD recording with stereo sound at the press of a button...

The Z900EXR has been available for a couple of months and almost escaped our attention, but now that it's available for just £130, it warrants a closer look.

A classy touchscreen camera that performs well in low light but isn't so competitive in brighter conditions

Does the Fujifilm FinePix Z900 EXR offer the performance to go with its stylish good looks?

Solid construction ; Large display ; Intuitive touch-screen control

Lens isn't the sharpest ; Slow to start up ; Poor battery life

The Fujifilm FinePix Z900 EXR is a stylish little ultra-compact that feels solid and well made. The large 3.5in monitor is sharp and clear and remains useable outdoors in bright conditions too. The touchscreen controls are perfectly responsive and the...
