hey there I'm Josh Goldman with CNN and this is a great little compact mega zoom for Cameron thews iasts the fujifilm finepix f900 EXR now typically we reserved using the word enthusiast for compacts that have fast lenses and large sensors at least larger than the half inch 16 megapixel EXR CMOS that's in this one however with its feature set that includes manual and semi manual shooting modes and raw and raw plus JPEG capture and controls that make it fast and easy to access and change settings the f900 EXR is a camera that is better suited for someone who's willing to put in some effort to getting the best shots now that's not to say it's not a good audit camera because it is fuji films auto EXR mode is one of the better Scene Recognition auto modes around and the camera has some advanced auto shooting options for getting very good low-light shots panoramas or even faking a shallow depth of field plus it has built-in Wi-Fi so you can shoot and share by sending shots directly to your smartphone or tablet shooting performance and photo quality are excellent for its class too but again while you can leave it in auto and get very good results you can do better if you learn all that the camera can do for example simply changing the camera's EXR dynamic range setting can rescue highlight details that other cameras would lose so if you're looking for a pocketable camera that has a 20x zoom lens and it does more than just point and shoot this hits the mark I'm Josh golden and that's a look at the fujifilm finepix F 900 and EXR
