Fujifilm FinePix S7000 Zoom Review

Rotating the Power / Record / Play switch to the Play mode brings up the last image captured full screen with only minimal details.

Pressing the INFO button on the side displays the exposure information including image size, quality, shutter speed, aperture, ISO value and flash mode. You also get a small histogram and the time and date.

Pressing the DISP button toggles thumbnail index mode, here you can quickly search through the captured images to display one full screen.

Pressing the zoom lens control buttons magnifies the image, there are many steps, the slider gauge tells you where you are currently. You can pan around inside of the image using the 4-way selector or trim it and save it (see next frame).

At any zoom-in step you can pan around the image until you have it cropped the way you want it and then trim it and save it as a smaller size image.

You can replay your movies full screen on either the color LCD or EVF. And you can also play them back on your TV when using the supplied A-V cable. Those big 640x480 30fps movies look great on the BIG screen.

The Play menu lets you delete the current picture, ALL pictures, set the DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) information or add a 30-sec Voice Memo to an image.

The SHIFT button can be used in the playback mode to control the speaker volume or the brightness of the color LCD backlight.
