Customer Review

With regard to the functionality and performance of this bridge camera Fujifilm with 30x optical zoom, Full HD video, with a mechanical image stabilization (sensor shift) and professional photo features a wish remains open for me any more.
The HS35 is personal as well as my 2 year old Fuji HS20 is a special feature for me. The HS35 is an improved version of the HS20 and HS30, the basic functions are at the same cameras.
The HS35 is about 40 grams lighter than the HS20 and she is very good in spite of their weight in the hand and is relatively easy to use.
A large number of function keys are mounted within easy reach on the left side, a direct and quick access to light sensitivity, exposure and focus, white balance. Exposure and continuous shooting function has top right next to the shutter release button.

With the manual zoom ring of 30x optical zoom range can be adjusted very quickly.
By further rotating ring on the lens can be controlled manually if desired focusing. I have this feature so far not been used because the autofocus in good light conditions even at max. Telephoto works quickly and reliably. Even in weaker light conditions such as indoors, the autofocus is reliable. Only in low light the AF responds with a slightly longer focusing time. However, you should use a tripod in the case.

The combination of EXR CMOS sensor (BSI) and powerful EXR Processor, the camera allows you to capture fast-moving subjects. This is especially useful when photographing playing children and animals. In this respect I use very often the continuous shooting function and I also like to photograph in the range of 8-10 megapixels, although in the HS35 16MP resolution is very good. But experientially I get with fewer pixels towards better shots. On top of that you get full resolution of 16 megapixels to eight frames per second and with 10 megapixel or 8 megapixels, the number of images increases on 11th

With the light sensitivity (2.8) of the EXR CMOS sensor technology, which is the heart of the HS35, succeed well in low light conditions very good pictures. Each image of the HS35 convinced in color, fine detail and contrast, if you follow some basic techniques of photography, known and mastered. And you learn over and over again to do so.

By folding 7.6cm (3 ") LCD screen (460,000 pixels), which is easily legible even in direct sunlight (solar mode), you get a good look at the subject, or by the electronic viewfinder, which is a very good resolution has of 920,000 pixels and switched on looking around automatically. The electronic viewfinder has a diopter adjustment function.
A spirit level that helps the camera focus, there are even more.

The integrated TTL hot shoe allows the connection of an additional flash.

With a zoom range from 24mm to 720mm focal length, the covers, the HS35, succeed very good macro- as well as telephoto shots. Compared to the HS20 is for the HS35 the optical zoom doubles the function of intelligent digital zoom and support by a mechanical image stabilization of up to 60-times zoom.
Super-macro shooting up to 1 cm close to succeed wonderfully. For video recording in full HD autofocus sharpens continuously after and both zooming and take pictures during video recording is possible.

The camera has wide choice of motif modes and functions (portrait, landscape, sports, dog, cat, flowers, beach, snow, sunset, night scenes, etc.) that are customized for specific shooting conditions and on the position SP1 / SP2 associated with the mode dial. The many programs, including EXR and automatic, contribute much to motivate one to deal with the camera. One should not forget that a camera like the HS35 also some familiarization period, and that you use the appropriate settings depending on the situation and subject.

The Fuji HS35 requires a lithium-ion battery, it has been around for HS30 (HS20 still with 4 AA batteries), to power. The battery capacity is very good.

Conclusion: I am very happy with the camera. Also, the value for money is ok. I can see the Fuji FinePix HS35 only recommend.
