This camera is the first in the Finepix S series advanced digital range to feature face detection that can detect faces and set focus and exposure accordingly. This 6.3 megapixel camera is optically geared with a 10.7 times optical zoom with a superb perspective range (equivalent to 28-300mm in 35mm format) for everything from extra wide to telephoto. It’s very high 3200 ISO (light) sensitivity also makes it ideal for low light photography. As a larger advanced digital camera, rather than a handbag friendly party pics camera, it is good choice for travellers and enthusiasts who emphasise image quality and creative scope without wanting the lens interchangability, added bulkiness and expense of an SLR.

Short Review:
The 6.3 megapixel Super CCD HR on this camera can produce 6×8 inch prints at full resolution with greater enlargement possible to achieve high quality A4 size prints. The 10.7 times optical zoom is a 35mm film equivalent to 28-300mm, which will give you a perspective from extra wide angle to telephoto, sufficient for large groups of people, good portraits and sports. The lens itself contains aspherical elements and extra low dispersion glasses for pictures with reduced colour fringing and lower distortion. Its very high 3200 ISO allows this camera to perform very well in low light situations and helps maintain a fast shutter speed for sharp pictures. There is also a 2 times digital zoom. Macro mode allows close-up photography, capturing detail from as close as 10 cm away.
