Fujifilm Finepix T190/T200 Camera Review

Conclusions

The Fujifilm Finepix T190 packs a lot into a slim package. Both the design and the build quality of the camera are very good. What makes it remarkable is the excellent 10x optical zoom and the 14-megapixel CCD with first-rate image stabilization.
The camera performs very well, which is notable given the price. It includes all of the perks that have come to be expected in point-and-shoot cameras, like scene modes, blink detection, red-eye removal, face detection, and versatile shooting modes.
In addition, it has three useful auto modes that turn the camera from a fully automatic point-and-shoot, to a semi-user-controlled camera.
The T190 has the easiest panorama mode that we’ve ever seen and a wonderful Natural & Flash mode that takes two pictures, one with flash and one without. On top of that it is easy-to-use. We also give Fujifilm extra praise for making their website easy to navigate. They also make the product manuals easy to find by putting them both on the included software disk and on the website.
It’s powerful mix of features and minimal drawbacks make the Fujifilm Finepix T190 a good camera for an everyday family point-and-shoot camera. Its low price makes it a good-value choice as well.
