Verdict

The Fujifilm FinePix S9200 is a versatile bridge camera featuring a 16.2-megapixel 1/2.3-inch backlit CMOS sensor and a powerful 50x Fujinon optical zoom lens (24-1200mm equivalent) with a bright f/2.9-6.5 aperture range. Key characteristics include lens-shift optical image stabilization, a 3.0-inch 460k-dot LCD, a 201k-dot electronic viewfinder, and full 1080i HD video recording at 60fps with stereo sound. Its main pros are a rapid startup time of 1 second, fast 0.3-second autofocus, a 10fps continuous shooting mode, and an impressive 1cm Super Macro capability for close-up detail. However, its notable cons include significant image noise at ISO settings above 400, a lack of built-in Wi-Fi, and a fixed LCD screen that does not tilt or swivel.
