By ISO 1600 this has become much more pronounced, with noise becoming much more visible even at regular image sizes.

I think they went too far with the zoom lens and had to make compromises, that resulted that even the wide-angle range of the lens has lower quality than average, I rather had paid more for this camera with a good lens....I truly recommend people not to purchase this compact camera, but go for a Fujifilm with an 8x zoom lens or so.
FinePix F770 EXR by Edino (Oct, 2012)
Picture quality at night time is very poor, even at wide-angle; far below average of other cameras.

Should you want to take more direct control of the F770EXR then you’ll also find the fill complement of Program, Aperture-priority, Shutter-priority and Manual exposure options on the main mode dial, alongside a selection of 18 Scene modes and an Automatic setting.

At its wider zoom settings and in good light the F770EXR delivers sharp images with good levels of detail.

The charger is very thin and fast to go from drained to full, but this means I need a 2nd battery for travel, just to be sure.

The camera’s built-in image stabilisation technology does its job well too, helping you to achieve sharp images even when shooting handheld at its telephoto extremes.

The FinePix F770EXR is the latest travel-zoom camera from Fujifilm, sporting a 20x lens with a versatile focal range of 25-500mm.

This means I can customize (ex: "cat mode" with flash produces very nice, fast action pics... "sports mode" with).

The pictures were not as sharp as my old fuji, and it did not take good pictures in low light.

After using the camera for a few hours today, I now push the flash button up as soon as I turn on the camera and since flash pops FORWARD, I can then use that space behind the flash to have my index finger in and hold camera steadier.

Lens

The Fujifilm FinePix F770EXR's 20x zoom lens provides a focal length of 25-500mm in 35mm terms, as demonstrated below.

Read our in-depth Fujifilm FinePix F770EXR review to find out if this is the ultimate travel camera... The Fujifilm Finepix F770EXR is a new 16 megapixel travel-zoom compact camera with a 20x, 25-500mm zoom lens.

I decided to add this one as it sounded like the focus time with zoom was faster and I was looking forward to the 20x zoom.

Zoom

Last but not least, the F770EXR is also quite a bit cheaper than its main travel zoom rivals, which makes it very good value too.
Fujifilm FinePix F770 EXR | Rated 80% by by TrustedReviews (May, 2012)
It is also easy and fun to zoom and see every detail (the 16MP sensor is unreal and very good)!
Fujifilm FinePix F770 EXR | Rated 100% by by ChristianAndCool--Christian
This new 16-megapixel model somehow shoehorns an even longer 20x optical zoom (25-500mm equivalent in 35mm terms) into a slender, handbag or pocket friendly chassis which measures just 24.9mm in depth at its thinnest point, only 2mm thicker than the 15x zoom F600EXR.
Fujifilm FinePix F770 EXR | Rated 80% by by Photography Blog (May, 2012)

Sensor

At its heart the F770EXR uses a 1/2in EXR CMOS sensor that is ever so slightly larger in surface area than the standard 1/2.3in chips employed by most of its chief competitors.
Fujifilm FinePix F770 EXR | Rated 80% by by TrustedReviews (May, 2012)
At ISO 400, it is practically a tie between Panasonic, Fuji, and Sony.
Fujifilm FinePix F770 EXR | Rated 40% by by Sam-Bravern (May, 2012)
The ability to capture Raw image files is a big bonus too, and something that elevates the F770EXR above its main travel zoom competitors.

I even took pictures around the camp fire - without a flash!! I've packed this camera in a small carrying case in a saddle bag for hundreds of miles over the months I've had it and it travels very well, beach, mountains, whatever - I wouldn't call it delicate - I'm pretty tough on stuff.

Metering is generally very accurate, although as with most compacts the F770EXR’s metering module tends to favour whatever’s inside the focusing area – even when the camera is set to Multi-point metering mode.
