Fuji S9900W 50x optical zoom
Fuji's new S9900W and S9800 are broadly the same cameras as last year's S9400W and S9200 (which remain in Fuji's lineup for now), with a few modest improvements; as with the S9400W and S9200, the only distinction between the S9900W and S9800 is that the 'W' denotes Wi-Fi connectivity, and for the most part we'll stick to talking about the S9900W in this review. Outwardly the new cameras are identical to their predecessors, but one notable upgrade is a boost in the resolution of the electronic viewfinder (EVF) from 201,000 dots to 920,000 dots, which produces a much smoother and sharper image. Another improvement is in the Wi-Fi functionality of the S9900W. With the S9400W you could only transfer photos from the camera to a smartphone or tablet over Wi-Fi, but the S9900W adds the facility to control the camera remotely, using the Fujifilm Camera Remote app. Other key specs are the same between the new pair of cameras and the old. The 50x optical zoom gives you an equivalent range of 24-1200mm in 35mm terms, and the maximum aperture ranges from f/2.9 to f/6.5. There's a three-inch, 460,000-dot LCD screen, and the cameras can record full 1080p HD video. Fuji says that the AA batteries which power the S9900W yield around 400 shots. https://youtu.be/XEESEGatvfc
