Fujifilm Finepix HS30EXR

[Matt]

Hey,

Here's my review of my new Fuji bridge camera.

Basic specs:
16mp (up to 8 shots per second)
30x Optical Zoom, 60x Digital Zoom
1080p@30fps
2x Stereo Mics
Approx. 16 hour battery life
Mini HDMI and AV outputs (For live streaming or TV slideshows)

In short, it's a very very nice camera-I've had it around 4 days now and I'm still not finding any floors.

Recommended kit:
32gb SD Card (1080p eats memory, trust me)
Camera Bag
Lens Cleaner

Pros:
-Very cheap for what it is
-Great super macro
-Extremely professional aesthetics
-Amazing battery life
-Very well built
-Very fast focusing time (faster than I can blink...)
Cons:
-During 1080p filming, the camera does try to autofocus, taking around a second-which can be annoying
-The manual focus does sometimes try to become automatic while you're not looking
