Fuji Film FinePix S20 Pro Review

Review Summary
Just like the Fuji FinePix F700 Zoom, which also uses Fuji's new 4th Generation SuperCCD SR sensor, the FinePix S20 Pro has a number of innovations that potentially make it stand out from the crowd and which justify the much higher than average price tag for a 3 megapixel camera. Unfortunately none of those innovations are fully realized, such as the new CCD that promises increased dynamic range and the 6 megapixel file quality setting.

The Fuji FinePix S20 Pro is the latest in a long line of digital cameras from Fujifilm, and the most recent of their offerings aimed at the serious photography enthusiast. The S20 Pro's lineage reaches back to the original and very popular FinePix 6900, which sold far beyond Fuji's expectations in late 2001.

If you’re on the fence between a point-and-shoot and a digital SLR, the Fuji FinePix S7000 may be your dream-come-true. With 6.3 megapixels of effective resolution, Fujifilm’s Super CCD HR (High Resolution) image sensor, and 6x optical zoom there is a lot to sink your teeth into without having to make the big SLR commitment. With an MSRP of $559, Fujifilm is looking to attract the user who is serious about their photography, but not necessarily looking to make a living with it.

Now that most $500-plus compact digital cameras give you high image quality, respectable zoom lenses, and plenty of controls, Fujifilm had to pack a lot of sizzle into its new FinePix S20 Pro ($899 street) for it to stand out from the crowd. This EVF camera's top features include a fourth-generation 6.2MP Super CCD SR sensor, a 6X optical Super EBC Fujinon f/2.8 - 3.1 zoom, 4.5-fps burst capability (up to 40 frames), dual media storage, and FireWire and USB connections. But can it take on the slew of 8MP EVFs selling for only a hundred bucks more (see "Great 8MP Shoot-Out," July 2004)?

The 6-megapixel Fujifilm FinePix S20 Pro is a superior camera for budget-strapped photo enthusiasts in need of top-quality images, a 6X zoom, generous functions, and excellent performance but who can't afford the price jump to a dSLR. With this camera, however, you have to shoot photos in the raw-Fujifilm's JPEG compression reduces the image quality significantly.
