FinePix S1000fd Features and Benefits
Super compact DSLR style design.
The S1000fd design allows you to do many things that you can't with most conventional digital SLR’s. For instance, using the 2.7 inch LCD to compose your image, rather than having to lift the camera to cover your eye or the added functionality of a movie mode.
In addition, photo enthusiasts and advanced photographers have total control with manual adjustment options for various camera settings including resolution, ISO, aperture, shutter speed and more.
Fujinon 12x Optical zoom lens.
Fujinon optics have an enviable reputation within the photography industry for their clarity and quality, and the lens on the S1000fd lives up to the name.
Using the excellent zoom range to reach virtually any of the major focal lengths (Ranging from 33 - 396mm*), rather than having to change lenses means you can avoid dust entering the camera, not to mention missing the perfect shot.
The Super Macro mode within the FinePix S1000fd allows you to capture an image as close as approx. 2cm (0.8 inch) making it easy to take high-impact full-frame close-ups.

2.7 inch LCD Screen with Micro Thumbnail view.
The FinePix S1000fd sports a large 2.7 inch LCD screen possessing an extremely detailed display of 230,000 pixels, it enables you to check focus and get an immediate idea of image sharpness.
This model can also display up to 100 images at a time in the micro-thumbnail view allowing you to instantly select specific images to either view or print.
10 megapixel sensor with Real Photo Technology.
Boasting a 10 megapixel CCD sensor, with a maximum sensitivity of ISO3200* the FinePix S1000fd delivers high image quality that promises sharper, more brilliant, high-resolution pictures whatever the scene. You'll see the benefits in every image you capture.
Real Photo Technology is the combination of cutting edge technologies such as Face Detection, Real Photo Processor and Fujinon lens, all optimised to work together to produce the most natural, beautiful results in any conditions. As one of the largest imaging companies worldwide Fujifilm is in a position to develop and to manufacture these components themselves, and it is this control over the design of the entire system that makes RPT so powerful.
* At ISO3200, resolution is set to 3 megapixels. At full resolution (10 megapixels), sensitivity is limited to a maximum ISO1600.
Never a blurred moment.
Picture Stabilisation uses the increased sensitivity of the FinePix S1000fd and high-speed shutter settings to reduce blur caused by hand-shake or subject movement. It allows the camera to automatically choose the correct light sensitivity and optimal shutter speed to produce clear, blur-free images, even when shooting at maximum zoom range.
In addition, the FinePix S1000fd movie mode offers the top-level 30 fps VGA benchmark, providing a valuable backup to the camera's still image capability.
Fujifilm's Face Detection Technology.
Operating throughout the entire range of the 12x zoom lens, Face Detection instantly identifies faces in the scene and automatically adjusts focus and exposure to ensure beautiful people pictures. The movement tracking keeps the camera 'locked on' to its subjects until they move out of the picture. The technology works irrespective of the subject's position in the frame, and is not confused by glasses.
Say goodbye to Red-eye – for good.
Red-eye is the single biggest reason why the best portraits are ruined. The FinePix S1000fd uses Face Detection technology to find and instantly correct any red-eye from every face in the frame as the shot is taken.
The system on the FinePix S1000fd will only correct redness in the pupil of the eye, not elsewhere in the picture, because the camera uses eye detection within face detection to find the pupil. While other cameras can sometimes convert lips or red jewellery to brown or blue, the FinePix S1000fd never gets it wrong.
Versatile Shooting Modes.
The FinePix S1000fd features 14 pre-programmed scene modes that offer a one-touch setting for almost any situation, including: Portrait, Landscape, Sport, Night, Fireworks, Sunset, Snow, Beach, Museum, Party, and Flower.
Simply choose a Scene Position that suits the situation and you have the ideal settings for everything from shutter speed, exposure and white balance ready to capture the image. The display of helpful descriptions of each mode and Scene Position within the LCD make it simple to explore the versatility of the S1000fd when faced with any photo opportunity.
NEW Panorama Shooting Mode.
For capturing sweeping scenery or large groups of people, the new Panorama Shooting Mode makes it easy to create impressive panoramic photos. Panorama Shooting Mode captures and combines a maximum of three consecutive shots at 3 Megapixel resolution, which are saved to the memory card as a single panoramic picture.

Sony Cyber-shot DSCH20 Digital Camera
The H20 offers serious performance in a compact design, giving you everything you need for high quality images in a camera that’s comfortable to handle and easy to use. Among its features are a powerful 10x optical zoom to bring far-away subjects up close, and a resolution of 10.1 megapixels, providing plenty of flexibility with how you use your pictures. The H20 also offers a range of automatic functions to help you achieve better-looking images with less effort. Add to that the capacity to record HD video, and you're ready to catch every moment in brilliant detail.
Use the 10x optical zoom to fill the frame |
Focusing on quality images
Great images start with a great lens. Unlike many other digital cameras, the H20 is equipped with an optical rather than just digital zoom which means that you get excellent image quality at all settings, even high magnifications. With the 10x zoom, you’ll be able to fill the frame with distant scenes and because the lens is by the renowned optical specialists Carl Zeiss, every detail of that scene will be crisp and clear. This powerful lens is complemented by a BIONZ processor, which enhances image quality by reducing noise and enabling a faster shooting response.
Even with this kind of support, camera shake can ruin what was otherwise a great photograph. Optical SteadyShot stabilises the image, using sensors to compensate for the blur created by hand movement, even in low light conditions. And once you’ve taken a shot that you’re proud of, a resolution of 10.1 megapixels means you can make a quality poster print at up to A3 size, or crop the image without losing any of its crisp detail.

Choosing the right settings
Taking great pictures doesn’t have to be difficult. The H20 is equipped with a number of functions to take the guesswork out of matching your camera settings to your chosen subject. Take twilight landscapes or sun-drenched backlit portraits, for example. Intelligent Scene Recognition will automatically choose the correct exposure and adjust other settings to give you a perfect picture. Or how about catching friends or family at the very moment when a smile lights up their face? Smile Shutter delays your camera shutter action until your subject has started smiling, making it ideal for party scenes and portrait shots. It has an adjustable smile threshold so you aren’t kept waiting too long, and you can change the setting from adults to children, and back again. This works alongside Enhanced Face Recognition, which adjusts the camera’s settings to make sure faces look sharp and clear, with natural skin tones. Put the three technologies together, and you’ve got beautiful portraits, whatever the location.

Moving pictures too
The H20 isn’t just about great still pictures. Just flip the mode dial to video and you’re ready to capture all the action in full 720p HD at 30 frames a second. The wide angle and high zoom capabilities of the H20 mean your movie clips will be crisp and detail-packed, and you can enjoy all the accompanying sound, thanks to the built-in microphone.
The big screen
Spin the camera round and you’ve got a 3" Clear Photo LCD screen, which can be used for scene composition as well as playback. Press Menu and it’ll help you pick the right settings with clear icons and simple menus. In playback, its higher resolution and increased contrasts mean viewing and editing pictures is easier and clearer than ever. And because of its size, it’s big enough to be viewed by more than one person, so you can share the fun.
Easy sharing and quality viewing
Managing your growing photo collection is hugely simplified by PMB (Picture Motion Browser) software included with the H20. Just install it on your PC and it provides a perfect archive for your shots which are all just a click or two away. You can arrange them by date, by person, and search through them quickly. From here you can burn them to disc, send them to friends or upload them to sites in a matter of seconds. If you connect your H20 or computer directly to an HD Ready TV you can view your shots in spectacular HD on the big screen. If your TV is a BRAVIA which supports PhotoTV HD, you’ll be able to experience even more lifelike HD images, bursting with detail and colours.
