Fujifilm FinePix F470 Review At Digital Camera Info

May 8, 2006

Digital Camera Info has a new review on the 6 megapixel Fujifilm FinePix F470 where they write.

“Representing the more affordable portion of Fujifilm’s F-series, the roughly $279 FinePix F470 provides a 1/2.5-inch, 6 megapixel CCD and 3x optical zoom lens, along with a basic feature to point-and-shooters at an affordable price. The primarily automatic camera has an intuitive design and simple menu structures to accommodate beginner users. In testing, the F470 displayed reasonable, though not stellar, image quality, but was slow to operate and poorly constructed.”

Likes -Slender and clean design avoids cluttered interface in favor of simplicity -Clear live view menu design (easy to interpret and navigate) -Easy to use -Mode switch allows for fast transfer from still modes to video modes

Dislikes -Sluggish zoom speeds -Loud, audible mechanics (zoom and autofocus) -Autofocus unreliable in low light -No manual focus -Excessive shutter lag -Slow start-up -Flash in macro mode tended to produce unsatisfactory images -Limited ISO range
