F300EXR Compact Superzoom with EXR II Sensor
Following in the footsteps of the award-winning ‘F’ series models, the F70EXR and F80EXR, the compact F300EXR features a 15x wide-angle zoom Fujinon lens and Fujifilm’s new EXR II Sensor with two new focusing systems to improve auto focus time. The 15x zoom offers a versatile 24-360mm range (35mm camera equivalent) while Contrast AF and Phase Detection AF systems allow the user to achieve a faster auto focus speed of 0.16 seconds so no shot will be missed, even at full zoom. The F300EXR offers the same three EXR Priority modes (Wide Dynamic Range up to 800%, High Sensitivity and High Resolution) as other EXR models and for the ultimate in ‘point and shoot’, EXR Auto mode takes the guesswork out of setting the camera by doing everything for you.
