Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR

Post by Jack Harrison »

I am considering a Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR. A significant attraction is the LCD tilting screen. Having used one previously (various Canons), it's the one feature I really miss with my otherwise-excellent Panasonic FZ38. Never again will I buy a camera without a flexi-angle screen.

Any comments? Anyone tried the Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR?

A few to choose from nowadays Jack, just a quick google brought up this lot.

Canon SX30IS, SX40HS, SX130IS, G12 Casio TRYX, Nikon P500, P7100 Panasonic FZ100, Samsung MV800.



Do look on Camera price buster for the best price.

Thanks Gary. They all have some Pros and some Cons. It is probably now a short list of two:

Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR
Panasonic FZ100

The Casio TRYX is certainly different but as far as I can make out, has a fixed-focal length lens (no zoom).

If I had to choose a good compact (or is this more of a bridge camera?), I have seen the Panasonic DMC-FZ150 and was quite impressed by it, bit pricey though with cheapest I could find at £347, but I think its worth it if with all the features it has, if you want to go that far.
Cheers all,
