The upgrade to the award winning Finepix HS20, the 16 megapixel Fujifilm Finepix HS30 features a massive 30x optical zoom, up to 11 frames per second shooting, Clear, High-Resolution Electronic Viewfinder, Full 1080p HD Movies with enhanced continuous autofocus, Long-life New Lithium-ion battery. **16-Megapixel BSI EXR CMOS Sensor** The 1/2-inch BSI (Back Side Illuminated) EXR CMOS sensor combines an impressive 16 megapixels of high-resolution image quality with exceptionally responsive performance. Fujifilms proprietary pixel & color filter arrays enhance both vertical & horizontal resolution, the key to 3-way capture technology that ensures the best image quality for every scene. Dynamic range has been expanded to 1600%, achieving a new level of imaging performance. The BSI structure results in enhanced light reception for a significant boost in sensitivity, with available settings up to ISO 12800 for S size. An optimized signal read-out configuration significantly reduces in-sensor noise, achieving a further significant reduction in signal-to-noise ratio. The CMOS format also achieves higher readout speeds & faster image processing, enabling 8fps high-speed continuous shooting at full 16-megapixel resolution. **30x optical zoom & Super Macro Mode** The bright, high-precision Fujinon lens boasts a maximum aperture of f/2.8 & an optical zoom range from wide-angle 24mm to 30x telephoto, while a remarkable 1cm Super Macro Mode opens up creative opportunities. ** Image Stabilization (CMOS Shift + High ISO)** Long telephoto shots can suffer from camera shake & subject movement producing blurred results. The Fine Pix HS30EXRs highly effective CMOS-shift & high ISO image stabilization ensures that your shots stay extra-crisp & clear, even at the full 30x zoom. ** High Contrast 3.0-inch tilting LCD** The 3.0-inch, 460, 000-dot LCD screen tilts to provide flexible viewing options for both high (45° downward ang
