Fujifilm announces mind-boggling twenty eight new cameras at once
Haven’t anyone told these people about the CES? Well, anyway, it seems that companies aren’t waiting for the biggest consumer electronics exhibition to announce their new products. Fujifilm has joined that list of companies by announcing not four, five or ten but twenty eight cameras, all at once.

First is the X-S1, which seemed to have some confusion regarding whether it wanted to be a DSLR or a point and shoot when it was growing up so it decided to become both. The X-S1 has a very DSLR-like body and with all those buttons and dials would confuse most people into thinking it is one. But unlike DSLRs, the lens is fixed.
The lens in question is a 24-624mm, 26x zoom lens with f/2.8-5.6 variable aperture. Behind that lens sits a 2/3-inch, 12 megapixel EXR CMOS sensor. On the back is a 1.4 megapixel, 0.47-inch EVF and a 3-inch 460k dot tilting LCD.
Other features include 7fps burst mode, 1080p30 video recording, RAW image capture, ISO 3200 with the option of going up to ISO 12,800 for low-resolution images and full manual settings mode. The X-S1 will be available in late-January for $799.95.
After this we have thirteen more superzoom cameras. The FinePix HS30EXR and HS25EXR are the more DSLR-like of the bunch. Both have a wide-angle, 24-270mm, 30x zoom lens, 16 megapixel sensor, 1080p30 video recording, 3-inch, 460k dot display, super-fast 0.16 seconds auto-focus speed, high-speed 11fps shooting mode and full manual controls. The difference between the two is that the HS30EXR has a larger .26-inch viewfinder with a higher resolution at 920k dots whereas the HS25EXR has a .20-inch, 200k dot viewfinder. Also, The HS25EXR lacks customizable function key, electronic level and RAW shooting mode.
