FujiFilm FinePix S200EXR/S205EXR

The FujiFilm FinePix S200EXR/S205EXR is a 12 megapixel digital camera with 14.3x optical zoom. This camera gives high resolution and expressive imaging abilities thanks to a Fujinon lens and a next generation EXR processor which allows wide angle shots and close-ups as close as 1 cm from the subject. The lens-shift stabilization automatically detects small movements of the camera and corrects them by shifting the lens group in the optical path for clear shots. This camera also features Real Photo Technology which uses the EXR technology to capture high resolution images closer to how your eyes see them in real life. For camera savvy operators, there are several manual functions for sharpness, color and tone to adjust the look of your photos to match your taste. Other advanced features include new noise reduction control, high-speed/high-precision AF modes, shutter speed control from 1/4000 second to 30 seconds, advanced high-speed continuous shooting and a film simulation mode with 5 different settings. The S200EXR/S205EXR also features a super intelligent flash, a 2.7" high contrast LCD screen and a variety of shooting modes.
