Fujifilm FinePix Z900EXR Digital Camera

The unbelievably glamorous Fujifilm Z900EXR is going to get lots of attention. With its graceful appearance, and feature-laden specifications and radiant picture-shooting performance, it is all set to turn out to be the must-have fashion camera this season.

Following the steps of the Finepix Z800EXR, the new Fujifilm Z900EXR package is available in an eye-appealing high gloss exterior and provides a wide array of the latest Fujifilm technologies to help convey great photos in all situations. Specification emphases includes a spanking new EXR-CMOS image sensor, wide-angle 5x zoom lens, LCD touch-screen with updated user interface, a variety of high speed photography functions and first rate video capture all packaged in a slim case that'll fit perfectly into a pocket or bag. Allowing fashion-conscious photographers no forget about compromising looks for photo quality proving that beauty not only skin deep Although the Fujifilm Z900EXR may have stunning looks it also contains inner attractiveness in the form of totally-new EXR-CMOS 16-megapixel sensor.

Also found inside other new Finepix premium cameras which includes the HS20EXR and Finepix F550EXR, the image sensor combines a pair of cutting edge engineering feats to help create brilliant images in any lighting situation. It does not natter if you're photographing outdoors in harsh sunlight, or inside with subdued illumination, the EXR-CMOS sensor will create its own element because of a combination of an Illuminated Back Side (BSI) image sensor plus triple-layered EXR array.

Using conventional image sensor design, light must pass through a wiring layer prior to reaching the photo diodes. This cuts down the volume of light reaching the sensor. However with a BSI image sensor, the photo diodes and the wiring layer are switched to improve sensitivity; a benefit that becomes quite clear when shooting in poor light situations.

The triple-layered EXR array provides even more versatility by altering its behavior in accordance with the image-capturing situation. Photographers can either allow the Fujifilm Z900EXR select the proper setting itself by choosing the EXR Automatic mode, or select from three manual alternatives:

The High Resolution function should be selected when you're looking for exceptional photo quality. This Fujifilm Z900EXR employs the entire 16-MP resolution to create images that you can turn into prints at A3 size direct from the Z900. Signal to Noise function is the best choice in poor light situations when combined with the BSI image sensor provides for superb outcome. To pull this off, the Z900EXR employs Pixel Fusion by doubling the pixel size, making them more light sensitive. Lastly, the Dynamic Range function cleverly selects a pair images and merges them to present a range as much as 1600%. This creates simple work of scenes containing lots of high contrast like a landscape during a mid summer day or of a portrait where the source of light is coming from in back of the subject.

I only discovered a couple of items I thought could be improved upon as i used the Fujifilm Z900EXR. The battery is able to be inserted either direction although it will only function in a single position which can become irritating when you must remove it again to reverse it. The only other item is that the camera becomes slow to process images before it's prepared to shoot another. While it goes through this process, buttons will change color in response to being touched but they become inoperable which can become a bit frustrating. Although if you're in no hurry, this will not matter though. Except for that, the Fujifilm Z900EXR is simple to use, plenty quick enough while in the metering in AF is acceptably accurate while it looks terrific.
