Fujifilm has announced the launch of the FinePix HS30EXR, which combines the power of 30x zoom with a 1cm super macro mode.
The FinePix HS30EXR is a successor to the popular HS20EXR and features multiple improvements like an enhanced 16-megapixel EXR-CMOS sensor and a switch away from AA batteries to a Lithium-ion rechargeable battery capable of up to 600 shots per charge (see other improvements in tablet below).
Other features include 3.0-inch large LCD, full-HD video recording at 30 frames per second, a Film Simulation Mode, and an Intelligent Digital Zoom that can be controlled by the convenient Function (Fn) button offers 60x magnification power for occasions when users require additional telephoto power to pull in really distant details. The FinePix HS30EXR is capable of shooting eight 16-megapixel frames per second in continuous shooting mode.
The technologies used for Face Detection and Tracking AF have been combined to create face tracking AF. Ideal for capturing all the sporting action and active children, this feature allows users to follow the action, ensuring that the faces of friends and loved ones are kept sharp and perfectly exposed.
The FinePix HS30EXR is now available for Rs. 26,999.
