News & Reviews:   Fujifilm FinePix JX370 review

The Fuji FinePix JX370 / JX375 digital camera is an entry-level model, aimed at photographers who just want to capture their memories without needing to understand the whys and hows. Many buyers will be family documentarians looking to supplement their photo album, and perhaps even first-time digital camera users. For that reason, ease of use is the JX370's core design principle.

Fujifilm FinePix JX370 / JX375: Zoom Lens

That's not to say that the Fuji JX370 isn't capable, however. With a 5x optical zoom lens, the JX370 provides adequate zoom range for most shooters. The JX370's 28mm-equivalent wide angle should be enough even for indoor shooting, when you often can't simply take a few more steps back from your subject to fit everything within the frame. On the other end of the range, the 140mm-equivalent telephoto lets you more tightly frame your subject, helping make them the center of attention. A standard CCD image sensor with a resolution of 14 megapixels should provide plenty of resolution for typical home print sizes, even after some cropping to achieve a more pleasingly-framed scene.
