Manufacturer's Description

The FinePix S8000fd camera features a stylish lightweight, compact yet sturdy body, but with a significantly boosted feature set, including a hugely versatile 18x optical zoom, CCD-shift image stabilization, 8 megapixel resolution and Fujifilm's ultra-fast Face Detection technology.The FinePix S8000fd's 18x zoom lens is ready for every possible photographic challenge thrown at it, from landscapes and interiors to wildlife and sports action. Covering a range equivalent to 27- 486mm on a 35mm camera, the FinePix S8000fd's zoom offers everything from true wide angle to extreme telephoto in a single compact unit.The wide angle is perfect for large group shots and sweeping holiday landscapes; the long telephoto lens is capable of picking out a single face on a distant stage or playing field, offering an unparalleled range of creative opportunities without the need for add-on lenses or adapters.Photographs taken at very long telephoto settings - especially with a hand-held camera - present a real challenge and can often produce unsatisfactory results. The most common causes for lost shots are camera shake (which is magnified at longer focal lengths) and focus errors caused by the narrow depth of field. It can also be difficult to keep the camera steady enough to ensure the desired subject is in the center of the frame when the shutter is pressed.The FinePix S8000fd uses a combination of advanced technologies to ensure perfect results even at the longest telephoto settings - no matter how challenging the shooting conditions. CCD-shift image stabilization helps combat the effects of camera shake, and high sensitivity settings of up to ISO 6400 keep shutter speeds high enough to avoid subject blur even in low light. Fujifilm's Face Detection technology locks onto faces - even at the full 18x zoom setting - and tracks them as they move around the frame, optimizing focus and exposure for perfect results even if you can't hold the camera steady enough to keep the subject's face in the middle of the frame.
