VELVIA:Selecting Velvia film simulation mode allows the deep hues of autumn foliage to be captured in their splendour, but this wide-angle shot also displays obvious distortion.

CLEAR: Find yourself with the benefit of clear blue skies and, like any snapshot camera, the Fuji FinePix F600 EXR delivers its very best performance, with good levels of sharpness here from front to back of frame.

EXR:This 'EXR' mode image has commendably kept detail in the foreground and the sky, producing an image closer to what the eye sees if, to be picky, a little flat overall.
See full-res image

PANORAMA: This automatically generated handheld panoramic image reveals some lens flare – OK, we were shooting almost directly into the sun at one point – but is free from obvious overlaps and the colours are lovely too, if detail is unsurprisingly not quite pin sharp.

BLUR:A slightly otherworldly looking result from the Fuji with some serious loss of focus top left of frame plus pixel fringing in the same corner.
See full-res image

ZOOM:Having a 15x lens reach enables you to get closer to your quarry than the average point and shoot compact, if, when light levels are less than ideal, results are not always razor sharp at the telephoto end when shooting handheld.

The Fujifilm FinePix F600 EXR is the latest compact pocket zoom from Fujifilm and is an update to the F600 EXR, adding these new features:

"New EXR Auto with a Motion Detection capability to virtually reduce subject blur in all lighting conditions. The built-in GPS functionality adds a Landmark Navigator feature to help photographers pin-point locations and the 15x wide-angle optical zoom lens now doubles its telephoto power (to 30x) thanks to the new intelligent digital zoom mode."

It also adds a new textured finish on the black model and features a 16 megapixel EXR CMOS sensor, 15x optical zoom lens, 3 inch screen, GPS and RAW support. (As this camera is so similar to the predecessor, this review is based on the F550 EXR Review).

Fujifilm FinePix F600EXR Features

The Fujifilm FinePix F600EXR sits at the top of the range in Fujifilm's line-up of pocket-zoom / travel-zoom cameras and features a wide angle 15x optical zoom lens, equivalent to 24-360mm.

Another feature of the F600 is a 16 megapixel CMOS sensor for high speed shooting and Fuji's unique EXR pixel arrangement to give three modes of operation: HR: High Resolution (uses all pixels to make a 16 megapixel images), SN: High Sensitivity for high ISO, low noise at 8 megapixels and DR: for dynamic range improvements (upto 1600% now available), at 8 megapixels.

The F600 and F550 goes beyond what the F500 offers, by including manual controls and RAW support and GPS support. If you don't need or want these features you can save some money by going for the Fujifilm FinePix F500 EXR instead. Both cameras are capable of recording Full HD video with optical zoom and stereo sound.

GPS options are further enhanced on the F600EXR with the following GPS options: GPS On (permanently), On (when camera switched on), Off. Location info ON/OFF. Auto time correction (On without summertime, with summertime, or off), GPS Tracking data on/off (creates a text document on the memory card with GPS information). GPS KM/Mile setting.

In playback you can access landmark navigator, this gives you a compass when the camera is pointed down or a view of GPS landmarks such as public facilities, tourist spots, leisure spots and my landmark. GPS Photo Navigation is another option. You can copy the location info, or search images by date, GPS location name, face, favourites, scene, type of data, or by upload mark (Youtube or Facebook).

Fujifilm FinePix F600EXR Handling

Despite being quite a compact camera, it features a rubber front grip, along with a textured / rubberised body. There is also another rubber grip on the back of the camera, although they are simply rubber spots where your thumb rests. This design gives good grip generally, although a tripod may still be necessary when using the full optical zoom.

On the back is an easy to use slanted mode dial and a number of buttons on the back provide quick access to the main modes, including playback and video modes. The video button is quite large, however it felt a little spongy which meant I occasionally wondered whether the camera had started recording.


Fujifilm FinePix F600 EXR - virtually the same to look at, except the F600 has a pop-up button for the flash. This also means you can close the flash more easily than the previous model. The camera features a stylish metal body, with a metal tripod mount.

The F600 is really quite compact for a camera with such a large zoom and it's just the lens that protrudes out of the camera when off, meaning it will easily fit into the more compact camera cases such as the Tamrac Neo 14 (possibly one of the smallest cases available for this camera) with a very snug fit.

Menus: The Fujifilm FinePix F600 menus are quite straightforward, with the main controls split into photo menus and setup menus. Another set of options can be changed by using the F button on the back of the camera, this gives quick access to: ISO, Image size, Continuous shooting, GPS settings, Advanced anti blur and film simulation. Although the availability of the options are dependant on the mode you are currently in. More advanced GPS options, IS mode selection, Red-eye removal and RAW options are available in the setup menu, including the option to save the original image - this works when using red-eye removal, pro focus, pro low-light and motion panorama modes.



Battery Life: The CIPA rating is 300 shots, although I suspect this is with GPS positioning switched off as the battery life seemed much lower when GPS was left switched on. The battery is a 1000mAh 3.6v battery (NP-50) and is rather small, which would explain the slightly disappointing battery life of only 195 shots.

Speed: We tested the Fujifilm FinePix F600EXR and tested the camera with the Canon Powershot SX230 and Sony Cybershot HX9v, taking 6 shots and using the average to ensure consistent results.

	Fujifilm F600EXR	Canon SX230	Sony HX9
Shutter Response	<0.05	0.05	<0.05
Wide - Focus / Shutter Response	0.20	0.35	0.20
Full zoom - Focus / Shutter Response	0.20	0.40	0.20
Switch on Time to Taking a Photo	2.3s	1.8s	2.0s

Continuous Shooting (full resolution)	8fps (8 shots)	2.5fps	10fps (10 shots)
Continuous shooting (with flash)	N/A	1.2s	N/A

The Fujifilm FinePix F600 has a good number of options for continuous shooting: No. of frames: 4, 8, 16, 32. 8fps full resolution (max 8 shots), 11fps at Medium (8mp), max 16 frames / or 32 frames at S (Small, 4mp).

Shooting at 8fps for 8 shots, the camera will take 18 seconds to save the photos before you can take any more. Fast focusing and shutter response. As well as a quicker switch on time, the camera also gives a quicker shot to shot time compared to the predecessor.

High speed shooting: shooting at 8mp, you can shoot at speeds up to 11 fps for up to 16 shots. Full resolution continuous shooting is available with shots being taken at 8fps.

Fujifilm FinePix F600EXR Performance

Here are several sample photos taken in a variety of lighting conditions, click "Hi-Res" to view full size sample photos, there are more sample photos in the equipment database where you can also add your own photos and review:

Fujifilm FinePix F600 EXR Sample Photos

Portrait with Flash 1/38 sec | f/4.8 | 12.5 mm | ISO 400 High-Res	1/300 sec | f/8.0 | 6.9 mm | ISO 100 High-Res
Full Optical zoom - 1/850 sec | f/5.3 | 66.0 mm | ISO 200 High-Res	Intelligent Zoom - 1/500 sec | f/5.3 | 66.0 mm | ISO 100 High-Res

The portrait photo with flash shows very little red-eye, although better detail should be available by manually selecting a lower ISO setting. The shots have bright saturated colours with strong reds and blues. "Intelligent Zoom" is just another name for digital zoom and you should be able to get better results using dedicated enlargement software should it be needed.

Fujifilm FinePix F600 EXR Lens test images

Wide - 1/800 sec | f/3.5 | 4.4 mm | ISO 200 High-Res	Full optical zoom - 1/340 sec | f/5.3 | 66.0 mm | ISO 200 High-Res
Trees - 1/105 sec | f/3.5 | 4.4 mm | ISO 400 High-Res	Macro 1/34 sec | f/3.5 | 4.4 mm | ISO 200 High-Res

Lens test images show the camera at wide and telephoto zoom, with quite good detail, although the top right corners are soft on the wide shot and images could be a little sharper. Purple fringing is generally quite lot, except in strong contrast. Macro focusing is possible with the subject 5cm away from the front of the lens, this produces good macro photos, as can be seen above.

Fujifilm FinePix F600 EXR ISO test images

1/7 sec | f/5.5 | 21.7 mm | ISO 100 High-Res	1/10 sec | f/5.5 | 21.7 mm | ISO 200 High-Res	1/20 sec | f/5.5 | 21.7 mm | ISO 400 High-Res	1/42 sec | f/5.5 | 21.7 mm | ISO 800 High-Res
1/85 sec | f/5.5 | 21.7 mm | ISO 1600 High-Res	1/170 sec | f/5.5 | 21.7 mm | ISO 3200 High-Res	1/420 sec | f/5.5 | 21.7 mm | ISO 6400 | 8mp High-Res	1/850 sec | f/5.5 | 21.7 mm | ISO 12800 | 4mp High-Res

ISO test images show low noise at the lowest ISO settings of ISO100 and ISO200, with noise gradually increasing as the ISO setting increases. At ISO6400 the images are resized to 8mp and at ISO12800 images are resized to 4mp. At ISO3200 and above you would most likely be best resizing images for use on the web. There is some pincushion distortion in these shots.

Fujifilm FinePix F600 EXR White-balance test images

AWB Tungsten 1/20 sec | f/4.3 | 9.0 mm | ISO 200 High-Res	Tungsten Preset 1/18 sec | f/4.3 | 9.0 mm | ISO 200 High-Res
AWB Fluorescent 1/8 sec | f/4.3 | 9.0 mm | ISO 200 High-Res	Fluorescent Preset 1/8 sec | f/4.3 | 9.0 mm | ISO 200 High-Res

Auto white balance under tungsten lights gives a warm / yellow cast to images and using the preset gives a more accurate colour rendition. Auto white balance under fluorescent light is very good with very natural / accurate looking colours and using the preset gives the image a magenta / pink cast. Under the majority of situations, indoors or outdoors auto white balance produces good results.


360 1/450 sec | f/3.8 | 5.7 mm | ISO 200

The panoramic options are 120, 180, 360 / 360 circular with horizontal and vertical directions both available.
