Fujifilm FinePix XP10 – Review

Fujifilm FinePix XP10 is a waterproof camera that is designed to have 12 megapixels resolution, 5x Optical Zoom and has a screen of 2.7-Inch LCD available in Silver, Black, Blue and Green. With a tag price of $152.90 this camera will allow photographers to create large, photo-quality prints and to capture movies with sound in 720p. One of the most important features of this FinePix XP10 is the Four-Way protection that makes the camera not only waterproof but also shockproof, freeze-proof, and dustproof.

This Fujifilm FinePix XP10 has chiseled design that is inspired by traditional compact camera and is very slim with only 21.7mm thin. This camera is the best fit to the need of bloggers because with its Blog and Movie editing Mode as well as Web Upload function the process of uploading photos and video to Facebook and Youtube can be done easily.

With a weight only 1 pound, this camera is very handy and can come with Lithium ion battery for long life power. This super-tough categorized camera is actually a redesign of FinePix Z33WP, a best selling product from Fuji. For high precision and better viewing particularly under direct sun, this FinePix XP10 utilizes high contrast LCD. Its optical zoom lens, 5x periscopic, is protected with reinforced lens barrier. Its Target Focus function feature helps image to stay away from blurriness.

Manufacture Description

The FinePix XP10 is the first in a new category of super-tough, ‘Four-Proof’ digital cameras – waterproof, freezeproof, shockproof and dustproof. Resulting from a redesign of Fujifilm’s best-selling FinePix Z33WP, the FinePix XP10 is an ergonomically “life proof” camera housed in a metal uni-body chassis with a tactile grip finish. The FinePix XP10 sports a 12-megapixel CCD sensor, a 2.7-inch, high-contrast LCD for better viewing in bright sunlight and a high-precision, Fujinon 5x periscopic optical zoom lens with a reinforced protective lens barrier. The FinePix XP10 is only 21.7mm thin, and retains the chiselled design of a conventional compact camera. Read More Here

Consumer Review

I bought a green XP10 because I love spending time in the water. I find that, outdoors during the day, the XP10 takes pictures with excellent clarity and excellent color saturation and contrast. Using fill-in flash in daylight truly enhances the picture. Indoors, because the XP10 lacks Fuji’s legendary SuperCCD technology, picture quality is average for a compact or super-compact camera. It does have two natural-scene modes where it boosts the ISO (light sensitivity of the image sensor) at the expense of increased noise. I bought my XP10 to be used outdoors, in the pool and at the beach, so I haven’t taken many indoor pics. Read More Here
