Product Information
Digital photographers looking for a top-of-the line compact digital camera can now take advantage of the 12-Megapixel FinePix F50fd. Following a long line of award-winning F-Series models, the FinePix F50fd offers consumers a super-compact digital camera that takes beautiful shots with the most advanced features and technology available, so that missing great shots is not an option.Combining a 12-MegaPixel, 7th Generation Super CCD with a 3.0x optical zoom and a 2.7" high-resolution 230.000 pixel wide-angle view LCD, the FinePix F50fd is a compact powerhouse that incorporates all the features users have come to expect from Fujifilm's more advanced digital cameras. With the addition of Dual Image Stabilization, Face Detection 2.0 Technology with Automatic Red Eye Removal function, and ISO settings of up to ISO 6400, the F50fd takes compact digital cameras to the next level, arming users with a host of new features and enabling them to take pictures never before possible.Fujifilm's proprietary Face Detection Technology also gets an upgrade in the F50fd with the arrival of Face Detection 2.0, featuring Automatic Red Eye Removal. As with the original version of Face Detection, it can detect up to 10 human faces in a scene in as little as 5/100's of a second, correcting focus, exposure, and white balance automatically, regardless of where subjects are located within the frame. Face Detection 2.0 adds to this technology by being able to identify faces at much more extreme camera angles than before. No longer does the camera need a head-on shot to identify a face, because now even a profile will do - with up to 90O movement in either direction for profiles, and up to 135O for leaning or lying down in either direction, for a total range of 270O.Additional improvements to Face Detection 2.0 include a new Automatic Red-Eye Removal feature that automatically corrects red-eye directly after the shot is taken and then saves both the original and the corrected image file.To ensure that users achieve even greater blur-free pictures, the FinePix F50fd adds to Fujifilm's Picture Stabilization mode to create the improved Dual Image Stabilization mode. This combines a mechanically stabilized CCD sensor with high ISO sensitivities for Total Anti-Blur protection. The combination of these two different approaches reduces the "blur"; effect from the photographer's hand-shake and subject movement even further to provide the highest quality digital pictures yet, with sharp, clean and clear results.All too often, digital photographers run into problems when taking pictures in low-light or dimly lit situations and have to rely on the flash, which can lead to over-exposed and washed-out shots. The FinePix F50fd builds on the great strides previous Fujifilm digicams have made with low-light photography and allows users to effortlessly capture the moment as their eye sees it, with tremendous clarity and low noise, using Fujifilm's Real Photo technology. Thanks to the 7th generation FinePix Super CCD-HR chip and the RP Processor II, the Finepix F50fd can utilize ISO settings of up to ISO 1600 at full resolution and an amazing ISO 6400 at reduced resolution, capturing stunning images even in low light while preserving the natural color and clarity of the shot.

Finepix F50fd

Created: 09/20/10
What I like with this camera is its low-light capability. ISO 800 with this camera is totally useable if your prints are from 4 x 6 to 8 x 10 inches. The photographer has more leeway in adjusting the Shutter and Aperture compared to other compacts. The LCD is good. The built-in flash is barely adequate. For excellent results, I use the following settings for the flash: ISO 100-maximum distance is 3 feet; ISO 200,-maximum distance is 6 feet; ISO 400- maximum distance is 9 feet; AND ISO 800 at a distance from 10 to 15 feet. The battery staying power is poor.

I decided to buy it given the positive reviews it got compared to some other compacts especially at its high ISO settings.

This is my second of these cameras. I bought the second one just in case I lost or damaged the first because I think they are so great. Severely under rated by those that grade cameras. Crystal sharp images, great automatic setting choices, large storage SD capable, suburb battery life...and this is one of those cameras where the battery does not drain over time if you don't use it for a while.

This great little camera that is no lomger in production. My daughter who is a photography student had one that she loved we bought new. I was dropped several times and finally broke beyond repair. Despite having bought several new cameras since, she still missed this camera terribly. We were able to find a slightly used one to replace it, again it's a terrific little camera for the money.
