The Fujifilm FinePix F40fd Digital Camera features Fujifilm's proprietary Real Photo Processor II, Super CCD HR VI image sensor and the impressive hardware-based Face Detection technology; and delivers all of this sophisticated technology in a compact, straightforward design. The 8.3 megapixel resolution Super CCD HR VI image sensor provides an astounding ISO 2000 sensitivity at full resolution and does so with minimal image noise to detract from your memories. In addition, the camera is equipped with a superb 3x optical zoom lens that incorporates lens technologies found in professional broadcast TV cameras for the sharpest and brightest pictures possible.
The beautiful slim line outer-shell is just under 24mm deep, making the camera extremely pocketable, with a design that reflects the sophisticated technology within. The enhanced 2.5" LCD screen incorporates Fujifilm's wide view filter thereby expanding the viewing angle by as much as 25 degrees compared to earlier models, and the intuitive Graphical User Interface (GUI) system provides pop-up prompts to guide you through the menu, and makes the camera incredibly easy to use. The FinePix F40fd also features a number of convenience features such as a dual memory card slot (which accepts xD-Picture Card and the popular Secure Digital (SD) card format), a Dual Shot mode that takes two pictures with one press of the shutter button (one with flash, to capture a bright, vivid image, and the other without flash, to capture the natural ambience of the shot) and a total of 14 special scene position modes (including Underwater, Snow, Night and Close-up) making the camera ideally suited to any photo opportunity. Furthermore, when a still image isn't sufficient, the camera's movie mode, captures movie clips with sound that are of broadcast quality.
