Perfect for advanced amateur photographers who want an affordable, step-up digital camera, the 10-megapixel FinePix S1000fd builds on the legacy of the FinePix S700 with the addition of a Fujinon 12x optical zoom lens (33mm-396mm equivalent) for greater range and flexibility, Fujifilm’s proprietary Face Detection Technology with Automatic Red Eye Removal, and a brand new Panoramic Shooting mode.

Finepix S1000fd Highlights

Face Detection with Automatic Red Eye Removal Face Detection operates by identifying and prioritizing up to 6 faces in a framed scene, and then adjusting the focus and exposure accordingly to ensure the sharpness and clarity of human subjects in the picture, regardless of background. After a shot is captured each detected face is instantly checked for red eye; if it is found, it is corrected automatically, saving the time-consuming process of fixing it later.

1) Face in sharp focus, 2) Optimized brightness

Panorama Shooting mode For catching beautiful scenery or very large groups, the new Panorama Shooting mode makes it easy to create impressive panoramic photos. This mode captures and combines a maximum of three consecutive shots at 3 megapixel resolution each, which are saved to the memory card as a panoramic picture.

2.7-inch, high-resolution LCD Rounding out the FinePix S1000fd’s powerful feature set is a large, 2.7-inch high-resolution (230k pixel) LCD plus electronic viewfinder (EVF) and ISO levels of up to ISO 1600 at full resolution and ISO 3200 at 3-megapixel resolution.

Picture Stabilization mode in action

Picture Stabilization mode A selectable mode, Picture Stabilization uses the heightened 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.

Full manual photographic control Photo enthusiasts and advanced photographers have total control with manual adjustment options for various camera settings including resolution, ISO, aperture, shutter speed and more.

5x zoom vs. 12x zoom

12x optical zoom FinePix S1000fd's 12x optical zoom lens expands your shooting reach, covering a remarkable focal range of 33-396mm*, bringing you close enough to capture subtle expressions. And the single built-in lens means you're always ready to shoot, with no need for bulky extra lenses or time-consuming lens changes.

High-speed shooting Capture the action with the High Speed Shooting mode: 7.5 fps at 2MP for 15 shots; 3.3 fps at 5MP for 6 shots; and 1.4 fps at 10MP for 3 shots.

Movie recording VGA quality at 30 frames per second with sound.

14 Pre-programmed Scene 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, Flower, Text.

xD/SD/SDHC-compatible slot The FinePix S1000fd features an xD/SD-compatible slot, which accepts not only Fujifilm’s traditional xD-Picture Cards but also Secure Digital (SD) and SD-High Capacity/SDHC cards too.

Operates on 4 AA batteries The ultimate in convenience and accessibility, using AA batteries means that, in a pinch, more batteries are just moments away.

Customer Reviews

Lots of camera for little money
This is a great camera that compares well with models twice the price. The combination of 12x zoom, large screen, small case and low weight is hard to beat. The pictures are of great quality and the camera has programs for virtually every type of shot.
The only issues I have discovered are:
- the lense does not have a thread to attach a standard filter and Fuji does not offer any on its web site
- the firmware loaded onto the camera has some minor bugs (e.g., the camera freezes and needs to be turned off and on again when the flash light is shut down before the flash has recharged).
These are minor nuisances that still make this camera a steal.

You need the exactly quantity of light
This camera take very good photos, but only with the exactly quantity of ligh. For example if the scene is dark with Flas the photo is saturate of light and on the contrary without flash the photo looks yello-dark using ISO 3200 and the resolution is 3M pixel.

Summarizing the dinamic range of light to take wonderfull photos is sharp or narrow. I supposed that this is the reason to cost around 220 dollars

I love this camera
I have been playing with the Fuji finepix S1000fd and am very happy. It is very good looking and professional for a non pro. lots of features and very easy to use, I am getting lots of great pictures. I am very happy with this product and what a great price too.
