FujiFilm FinePix HS10
$450.00
Released April, 2010
The Pros:Back-lit CMOS sensor for low-light shooting. Universal AA batteries can be recharged, found anywhere if you haven't planned in advance. 30x optical zoom.
The Cons:Low resolution LCD - 230k dot. Large and heavy for a P&S - the size of an entry level DSLR or smaller professional form factor. Hot shoe is simple requiring manually setting the camera for use.
The FujiFilm FinePix HS10 is a fixed-lens point and shoot camera released in early 2010. Of FujiFilm’s Spring 2010 lineup, the HS10 is by far the best. For starters, it utilizes a powerful 30x optical zoom lens.

It’s further bolstered by triple image stabilization (mechanical CMOS shift, digital stabilization, and ISO adjustment), a back-lit CMOS sensor optimized for low-light shooting, and support for RAW+JPEG still capture. Signature to the HS10 is its full support for 1080p high-definition video capture, not to mention an included HDMI v1.3 interface. Additional features include a 10fps burst mode, a movie mode that films up to 1000 frames per second, and a one-touch panorama mode.
Additional Information
The HS10 is lacking, however, with its weaker 10.3MP CCD sensor (when compared to its peers) and its reliance on conventional AA batteries. It is otherwise the best model in the Spring 2010 release.
