Have they fixed the hot pixels issues? Or is it hard to tell with no manual shutter control?

There seems to be a problem with the review page pertaining to dynamic renge.The only picture that is available is the one in standard 12mp mode.

John, the F200 EXR gives you full control of the shutter speed. You can manually set shutter speeds manually from 8 seconds to 1/1000 second and also use shutter priority auto. The only limitation of the camera is the poor control over apertures in manual and aperture priority modes with just 2 settings availale at any time.

What's this hox pixel issue? I haven't heard anything about it. The F100fd had a problem with a pink line on the edge of the frame but there was a update to fix that. The F200 EXR uses a differnt sensor.

PeterB666 - I think what Clovis is getting at is that Cliff hasn't taken a photo of the underground carpark to show the improvements over the standard mode. I was surprised by that decision as well.

The f30-1 and the 6500 and 9500 share a similar sensor. these sensors have hot pixels with long exposures. I generally take shots in the pitch dark with exposures of 20-30 seconds so i'm of the midset that 8 seconds isn't all that long ;-)

Cliff, I believe lots of other readers besides me would really like to see the dynamic range EXR mode included in the review, seeing as that particular feature of the f200 is what seems to be the greatest improvement in IQ the sensor brings. Could you post it?

It does seem a bit odd that there aren't any EXR shots on the ISO or dynamic range pages - I'd be very interested to see these.

I'm considering picking up an F200, due to the good low-light performance - most pictures I take are at parties or clubs. The good dynamic range and a bit of manual control is also very appealing. However, Fuji F series cameras have always seemed a bit clunky, both physically and software-wise. I can't decide whether I'm prepared to sacrifice aesthetics and ergonomics even though my main use for a camera is night shots.

Can anyone suggest any other cameras which perform well in low-light conditions? I've been using a Panasonic FX33 but it didn't survive a snowboard season (or 11 months). I paid £120 for it on sale and have a PC World coverplan so can either get it repaired or put that amount towards another camera - anyone know if May/June sales on cameras are a regular thing? I'm tempted to buy a newer Panny (FX40, TZ7 or FX550), but don't want to downgrade to the FS range, which are around £140, which makes the repair option appealing if there isn't going to be another sale by mid June.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received. I would put this in the forum but I can't sign up!

Just bought the F200EXR and even compared to my Olympus SLR 520 it is producing better pictures on the Auto EXR setting.

Gold Award in the What Digital Camera May 2009 edition. No wonder !

I have just received a F200 EXR for my wife's birthday present and was interested to compare it with my Panasonic LX3. Having taken all kinds of pictures in both low light and very bright conditions I've come to the conclusion that the LX3 gives the better result. In just about every case the LX3 produced a better picture, only when using flash did the F200 EXR produce a more pleasing result. The LX3 is obviously a more specialist camera, but for what I bought the F200 for as an automatic point and shot with a reasonable zoom that will give good results in most conditions it fits the bill.
