Our new camera for the trip

It is not so long ago that we chose for the predecessor and were very satisfied with this camera for the holidays, but now Fujifilm FinePix HS50EXR meets with in the fast lane in no time the nail on the head.
With regard to the evaluation and the quality, image sharpness, noise performance, etc. I must say that I as a professional photographer working for years with professional Canon cameras, so you have to look at my criticism to several factors a little more neutral, because our work cameras sometimes just partially almost 20 times as much cost.

BUT: we chose the holiday allows the Fujifilm because it vacation experience shows does not make so much fun take the big DSLR, plus I personally never had so much pleasure did take numerous interchangeable lenses and at the exact point is Fujifilm with the HS50EXR because these small compact bridge camera includes a recording times subtly of 24 up to 1000 mm which is of course enormous and one would have to take sometimes loosely 5 lenses with reflex cameras :)
For this, the auto focus is now not very fast, but fast to really miss no motive, very convenient here is to look at the 3 "display, which I use for focusing, because I the viewfinder at the Fujifilm bit too is small.
I have used the camera in Fuerteventura, while I photographed at the zoo :) and even landscapes. For moving objects, the camera is unfortunately something in knees when it comes to speed and then you want to consecutively take several motifs in a very short time (therefore use a fast memory card).
The 16 million pixels of the EXR sensor come but tremendously well with rapidly changing lighting conditions clear, which is definitely a big plus for this little journey camera, because you can only rely on the motives to easily and must be neither light nor care what , In this case, I use the camera in fully automatic EXR program, which was still greatly improved compared to its predecessor !!!
It is very nice that you can even directly can hold the camera in one of the very diverse scene modes in RAW format the recordings already, since Fuji has the camera indulged some nice cinematic effects, which date from the analog days, and at that time already had enormous charm. I decided on vacation for crisp colors and sometimes even used in the landscapes monochrome effects. Overall, the camera takes 10 different effects, which all have their strengths and can turn a good picture a great picture !!!
What in the HS50EXR also represents a special kind of highlight is the panoramic mode which also works far better than its predecessor, small Patzer be at too rapid camera rotate though punished directly, but you is not so out of the world when the panorama repeatedly receives.
Who in addition also still stands on macros, will be pleased with the one centimeter minimum focusing distance in order to capture even the smallest crawlers on the chip, to make the panel a lot of fun, which covers namely from 2.8 to 11 everything that I also in my large cameras use. Above all, the camera comes here with Aperture 2.8 along very well, for the radiating portraits and make them disappear unnecessary image areas in a beautiful blur.
As a treat, the camera has also a Full-HD video recording capability and operated so everything you need on holiday :)

If you've finally for the first time the camera consistently used one has exhausted the battery in approximately 4 hours continuous operation and shot hundreds of photos depending on the memory card. I have consistently had the camera in this 4 hours in use and am amazed at how strong the battery, because you have to copy only once, so a full extra point for the Fujifilm HS50EXR, because that's what makes me a real journey camera how often the battery went halfway to his knees and for the rest of the day could no more images to be shot, except with the smartphone, full power with the FujiFilm.

Fujifilm now to transfer the images software with which you can install on Windows computers or even just like me on the Mac and appears to be related to type with Lightroom, because the user experience is awesome and the training period is over after a few minutes, so intuitively can use the program. Here now are the small errors of the camera visible. Where a knack sharp picture without artifacts were visible on the 3 "screen is on the Mac now already clear that it is only a 16 million pixel sensor, also the noise performance of the camera is visible. I have to say that I artifacts, color noise and minimal blurring largely see on motifs with 1000er focal length. For all wide-angle sensor plays the strength of full and again to say that this small all-rounder will cost a fraction of a large SLR. It has now been discovered inaccurate, these due the RAW image, too largely resolve well, since we are working on the digital negative, and thus on the raw image, and this is a real strength, because RAW is just simply enormous good as if you need to photograph everything in JPG.
