Camera Overview — Fujifilm HS20 EXR

The Fujifilm FinePix HS20 EXR is a point-and-shoot camera built around a 16MP 1/2-inch EXR CMOS sensor with an ISO range of 100 to 12800, giving shooters meaningful flexibility across a range of lighting conditions. The camera records stills at a maximum resolution of 4608x3456 pixels and supports color profiles including Standard and Chrome. For action and fast-moving subjects, a burst mode capable of up to 8 frames per second adds real utility.

On the video side, the HS20 EXR captures footage at up to 1080p at 30fps, with 720p at 60fps also available, and a high-speed 320x240 mode at 160fps for slow-motion effects. A 3-inch articulated LCD with 460,000 dots of resolution aids in composing shots from varied angles, and an electronic viewfinder provides an alternative framing option. Optical image stabilization helps reduce camera shake during handheld shooting.

The autofocus system uses contrast detection. The camera runs on 4x AA batteries, making it straightforward to power in the field. Storage is handled via SD, SDHC, and SDXC cards, and a USB connection is available for data transfer.

At 730g and 131 x 91 x 126 mm, it has a substantial physical presence for a point-and-shoot.
