The Fujifilm FinePix F480 Digital Camera is no bigger than a deck of playing cards, yet it is equipped with an 8.2 MegaPixel CCD sensor along with a digital signal processor for improved noise reduction, and a 4.0x wide angle optical zoom lens that captures large groups or distant subjects with ease. Furthermore, the camera includes a QVGA movie mode that can capture up to 30 frames per second with sound.

This easy-to-operate camera allows users to select from 13 automatic scene settings, including a 'Sunset mode' to emphasize vivid colors, a 'Beach and Snow mode' for minimizing glare in bright situations, and a 'Party mode' for indoor settings, allowing images to retain the natural ambience of the scene in low-light conditions. The FinePix F480 also features Picture Stabilization mode to reduce blurry images that can be caused by camera shake or subject movement, and you can frame your shots, or view your pictures and video clips on the high resolution 2.7" LCD Display right on the back of the camera.

Slim Line Design
The FinePix F480 features a new slim body design that's even easier to carry and store than ever before. At only 23mm thick, and no bigger than a deck of playing cards, this camera fits easily anywhere - pack, purse, or even pocket.
8.2 Megapixel CCD
The 8-megapixel CCD sensor produces sharp, high-resolution pictures with brilliant color that look great, even when enlarged for printing.
4x Wide Angle Optical Zoom Lens
The 4x optical zoom lens provides an equivalent focal length of 28-112mm in 35mm terms. With its 28mm wide-angle lens, the F480 lets you capture groups of people, imposing buildings and structures, or the grandeur of natural scenery, without worrying about cutting sections of the subject out of the picture. The telephoto capability combined with the power of a 6.9x digital zoom, means that you can enlarge details in your image as much as 27.6x, making it possible to take great close-ups from far away.
High Sensitivity
The FinePix F480 offers high sensitivity of ISO 800 to ensure great photos with crisp, clear detail in various conditions. Pictures come out sharp and blur-free, even when shooting in low light without a flash.
Picture Stabilization Technology
The Picture Stabilization feature of the FinePix F480 automates professional photographic techniques to help reduce camera shake, freeze subject movement and improve low light background detail. Picture Stabilization utilizes higher sensitivities, up to ISO 800 in the F480, an incredibly high signal to noise ratio, and faster shutter and operational speeds to deliver virtually blur free images where conventional digital cameras cannot.
Wide Selection of Shooting Modes
The F480 features a variety of shooting modes including a Mode Dial with 14 Pre-programmed Scene Modes. The pre-programmed settings adjust contrast and exposure to ensure great photos of scenes as varied as Party, Fireworks, Snow, Night, and many more.
Movie Mode
The FinePix F480 can capture QVGA quality movie clips at 30 frames per second with sound - Great for when you're out and you don't have a video camera on-hand.
Built-in Memory and Dual Media Slots
The FinePix F480 includes 12MB of built-in memory so you'll be able to begin shooting, right out of the box. Plus the camera memory can be expanded to over 2GB with either xD-Picture Card or the popular Secure Digital (SD) and even higher capacities are possible with Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC) Memory Cards.
2.7" High Resolution LCD Display
A large, 2.7" high-resolution LCD display lets you compose your photos with ease in all kinds of lighting conditions, and adds to the pleasure of sharing photo playback with family and friends. Furthermore, the high resolution display permits a more sophisticated icon-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) with unique features like on-screen user assist functions.
Lithium-ion Rechargeable Battery
Get more shots out of your camera without carrying around bulky alkaline batteries. The FinePix F480 camera utilizes a compact, rechargeable Lithium Ion battery that will keep you on the go, and combined with Fujifilm's power management technology, battery life is extended to keep your camera going all day.
USB 2.0 Interface and PictBridge Compatibility
With the fast USB 2.0 interface, you'll be able to transfer your images and video clips to your computer quickly and easily, or connect the camera to a PictBridge compliant printer and print your favorite images without the need of a computer at all.

Cracked LCD and no help from Fujifilm

Comments about Fujifilm FinePix F480 Digital Camera:

The day we first used the camera it was working fine. Photo quality was acceptable and the LCD had a fast refresh rate and was quite nice. Unfortunately, during its use my wife looked at the camera and noticed the LCD was cracked (internally) and it wasn't showing anything any longer.I was there with the camera and can assure you that there was no impact, dropping or anything. Perhaps the temperature change outside caused it (we noticed the crack while we were outdoors).[...].I'm disappointed and won't be purchasing another Fujifilm camera again, ever.
