Optical zoom flexibility and good image quality in a single package

This is the second HS50EXR that I've owned. The first was bought new in 2013 and I was always very pleased with it. However after nearly ten years and tens of thousands of photos, many functions have ceased to operate as they should. The identical replacement bought recently on eBay is pleasingly in practically new condition. It was also accompanied by a useful hard copy handbook (something its predecessor didn't come with) which has informed me about one or two functions I was never aware of! The camera behaves well with all the familiar functions of the old one fully operative. I like the flexibility of the optical zoom (24mm - 1000mm equivalent). Admittedly, whilst the image quality is pretty good through most of the zoom range, it becomes a little compromised at the top end (unsurprisingly). However, it is a useful, lightweight and convenient camera that does without the weight and complexity of DSLR and mirrorless models that require a multiplicity of different lenses.Read full review

Superb camera

This camera is for people who like to take quality pictures without all the hassle of a Dsrl. Very easy to use with a superb zoom. I take mostly wild life pictures, both close up & at the full maximum of the zoom & find the image quality very good for my needs. The camera has many settings, including video. Other people will review all the technical side to the camera, I just love using it! Put a quality sdhc card in it & surprize your self with the results. Cant recomend this camera highly enough.Read full review

Incredible little camera

I have used Fiji hs cameras for years, unfortunately they are no longer made which is a pity as they were excellent bridge cameras with amazing telephoto capabilities
The used camera I recently bought is amazing thanks to eBay Read full review

Brilliant buy second hand.

Plenty of features for the keen amateur, nice and chunky. Only fault I can find is that the zoom is a bit stiff at the long range end of its travel but I'd already read that this is typical for this camera before I bought it.Read full review
