Fujifilm Finepix S200EXR is an ultrazoom digital camera announced in late July 2009, as a successor to Fuji’s S100fs. It spots 12 megapixels of resolution, 14.3x optical zoom and full manual controls.

The camera incorporates Fuji’s Super CCD EXR sensor that is also used in Fuji F200EXR and F70EXR digital cameras. It is said to provide for exceptionally balanced pictures as close to that of the human eye as possible. The EXR sensor is can actually change its electronic behavior to suit the subject.

There are the following primary shooting modes in the camera: Auto (fully auto mode, film simulation, high speed shooting), Program auto, EXR Mode, Scene Position with 17 scenes hidden inside it, 2 Custom Modes, Aperture & Shutter priority mode and, at last, Manual Mode.

In the EXR Priority Mode you decide which sensor setting is preferable by choosing High Resolution Priority to maximize resolution, High ISO and Low Noise Priority for high quality low-light work or D-Range Priority for the best detail.

Besides, the camera features a large 2.7 inch LCD with 11 level of brightness adjustment, and the images are stabilized with the help of Dual Image Stabilization (Optical + Digital) to guarantee blur-free images even in low-light conditions.

Its Pro-Focus Mode allows for professional-looking pictures and Super Intelligent Flash works for you images taken with flash look natural.
