About the Fujifilm FinePix HS50EXR Bridge Camera
The Fujifilm FinePix HS50EXR is a bridge camera built for people who want one lens that covers everything. Its 42x zoom runs from a wide 24mm equivalent to a long 1000mm equivalent, and it is a true manual zoom ring rather than a motorised lever, so you can frame quickly and precisely. The 16-megapixel EXR CMOS sensor and EXR processor work together to control noise and dynamic range, while the DSLR-style body gives you an electronic viewfinder, a tilting rear screen and plenty of direct controls. It is a practical all-in-one for travel, wildlife and family photography where changing lenses is not an option.

Questions about this model
Does the HS50EXR have a manual zoom?
Yes. The zoom is operated by a manual zoom ring on the lens barrel rather than a motorised lever, which allows faster and more precise framing.
What is the zoom range of the HS50EXR?
It has a 42x optical zoom covering 24–1000mm in 35mm equivalent terms, from wide angle to super telephoto.
Can I change the lens on the HS50EXR?
No. It is a bridge camera with a permanently attached Fujinon lens, so the 42x zoom is the only lens it uses.
