Fujifilm FinePix E900 Review
|
Review
Date: Nov 3, 2005 |
It features a 32-128mm (35mm equivalent) 4x optical
zoom, has a real-image optical viewfinder, and
a large 2.0 in. LCD monitor. It takes the xD-Picture
Card.
A nod toward popular request is the use of 2
AA alkaline batteries as its power source. A live
histogram can be displayed during Recording mode.
