We already listed pros and cons of each model. However, you may also find useful to look at their common strengths and weaknesses shown side-by-side.

Screen

Fujifilm FinePix HS35EXR and Fujifilm FinePix HS10 have 3.0" Tilting screens with 460k dot and 230k dot resolutions respectively. Tilting screen makes cameras very useful for photography purposes but not so useful for video shooting.

Viewfinder

Cameras have built-in Electronic viewfinders. Fujifilm FinePix HS35EXR has 100% coverage magnification and Fujifilm FinePix HS10 has 97% coverage magnification.

Fujifilm FinePix HS35EXR features a 16 megapixel 1/2-inch EXR-CMOS sensor with dimensions of 6.4 x 4.8 mm and a total area of 30.7 mm². Its native ISO range is 100 - 3,200 and expands to 100 - 12,800 in boosted mode. Fujifilm FinePix HS10 features a 10.3 megapixel 1/2.3-inch BSI-CMOS sensor with dimensions of 6.17 x 4.55 mm and a total area of 20.7 mm². Its native ISO range is 100 - 6,400.

Fujifilm FinePix HS10 has BSI-CMOS sensor, short for Backside Illuminated Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor sensor. In traditional CMOS sensors, the wiring and circuitry are located on the front side of the sensor, which can block some of the incoming light. BSI technology flips this design by placing the photosensitive elements (pixels) on the backside of the sensor, allowing more light to reach the pixels. This significantly enhances light sensitivity and improves low-light performance. BSI-CMOS sensors are particularly effective in low-light conditions, as they can capture more light, resulting in brighter and less noisy images. This makes them well-suited for indoor and night photography. BSI-CMOS sensors deliver a higher SNR and reduced cross-talk.

Fujifilm FinePix HS35EXR is equipped with EXR processor and can take pictures up to 4608 x 3456 resolution.
