Fujifilm continues to make top-quality picture-taking a snap for consumers with the SLR-styled FinePix S6000fd, the first digital camera in Fujifilm's line-up with the company's Face Detection Technology.
Face Detection Technology operates exactly as its name implies, identifying up to 10 faces in a framed scene. Once faces are identified & prioritized, the 6.3 MegaPixel FinePix S6000fd adjusts its focus & exposure accordingly to ensure the sharpness & clarity of human subjects in the picture, regardless of background.
And since it is hardware rather than software based, Fujifilm's FaceDetection Technology works in as little as 0.05 seconds, faster than similar in-camera detection systems currently on the market or soon to be available. Quicker operation reduces the likelihood of missed or blurry photos, frustrations often associated with digital photography.
Face Detection Technology is the latest addition to Fujifilm's suite of Real Photo Technology digital camera components that work collaboratively on the FinePix S6000fd to produce the best possible photographs. One of those components is i-Flash, the intelligent flash system introduced by Fujifilm earlier this year on the FinePix F30 compact digicam.
The system reads scene conditions & adjusts its flash power output & exposure automatically, based on gathered information. The results are backgrounds with finer detail & sharp, accurate subjects without the 'washed out' look that often accompanies flash photography. Together, the Face Detectionand i-Flash technologies will produce photographs with prominent subjects exhibiting pleasing, natural tones.
Like the FinePix F30, the FinePix S6000fd has a full-resolution ISO equivalency of 3200, a rarity in consumer-level digicams. Such high light sensitivities allow for faster shutter speeds, which reduce blurring caused by both camera shake & subject movement.
This marriage of higher sensitivities with a faster shutter is the basis for Fujifilm's Picture Stabilization, another feature foundon the FinePix S6000fd. The easy-to-access feature (selectable on the mode dial)enables the FinePix S6000fd to automatically choose the correct light sensitivity & best-matching shutter speed for the scene.
Other helpful features found on the FinePix S6000fd for top-quality picture-taking include: Dual Shot Mode: In this mode the FinePix S6000fd quickly shoots 2 images in succession, one with & one without the flash, saving both. This convenientfunction lets the user perform an on-the-spot picture comparison and decide which photo is the most pleasing.
The FinePix S6000fd is equipped with a 28-300mm Fujinon 10.7X optical zoom lens with full manual control via the lens barrel. This high-quality Fujinon lens configuration offers tremendous flexibility for either zoom or wide- angle shots almost like having two lenses in one, and without the risk of dust accumulation that comes with having to change lenses.
