Fujifilm HS50 EXR vs Fujifilm S9900w

Below, we will be looking at the Fujifilm HS50 EXR versus Fujifilm S9900w, both Small Sensor Superzoom cameras and both of them are produced by FujiFilm. The image resolution of the Fujifilm HS50 EXR (16MP) and the Fujifilm S9900w (16MP) is relatively close but the Fujifilm HS50 EXR (1/2") and Fujifilm S9900w (1/2.3") come with totally different sensor sizing.

Photography Glossary

The Fujifilm HS50 EXR was introduced 24 months before the Fujifilm S9900w which makes the cameras a generation apart from one another. Each of the cameras come with the identical body type (SLR-like (bridge)).

Before going in to a in depth comparison, below is a quick highlight of how the Fujifilm HS50 EXR scores versus the Fujifilm S9900w for portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Here is a preview of the gallery photos for Fujifilm FinePix HS50 EXR and Fujifilm S9900w. The whole galleries are provided at Fujifilm HS50 EXR Gallery and Fujifilm S9900w Gallery.

When you are planning to carry your camera, you will need to consider its weight and volume.

Normally, it's hard to visualise the gap in sensor sizing merely by viewing technical specs. The photograph here will help give you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm HS50 EXR and Fujifilm S9900w.

As you have seen, each of these cameras posses the exact same megapixel count albeit not the same sensor sizing. The Fujifilm HS50 EXR uses the bigger sensor which is going to make achieving shallow depth of field simpler. The older Fujifilm HS50 EXR will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
