Value & Verdict

Fujifilm FinePix F600EXR review – Value

There’s a lot of tech on offer for the £239 price tag. 15x zoom, 1080p HD movie, small size, GPS manual controls and Raw shooting for under £250? Bargain!

Fujifilm FinePix F600EXR review – Verdict

If you’re after a travel compact then the F600EXR has a lot on offer for the cash. It’s the low price that makes it a particularly attractive compact.

The large zoom range is great to have, though image quality isn’t the very best out there – and that’s even when considering the EXR technology. Shots are more than good enough, however, just not as standout as we’d hoped for.

But it’s the host of ample features that make the F600EXR a winner: decent autofocus, 8fps burst shooting, Raw shooting, GPS and that significant lens in a sturdy, slim, sub-£250 body. There’s not much for you could ask for.
