Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
The Fuji FinePix 6800 digital camera exudes quality in all departments. From its Porsche designed stylish aluminium-magnesium alloy body, to the high resolution, gloriously detailed images it produces, this camera has it all, making it an object of desire for all enthusiast photographers. The 6800 is reassuringly weighty, rather than cumbersome at 258 grams (excluding battery) and you'll be happy to take it with you on your travels. The build quality is excellent, with a sturdy chassis and fine attention to detail.
Operation of the camera can be as simple or as complex as you like. For those point and shoot moments, you can switch on the camera, have it preset to picture mode, flick to auto and press the button. In the recent tradition of compact cameras, pressing the button down half way will tell the camera to auto focus first. Speed is good, with your first picture being available within around 2 seconds of powering up with further pictures able to be shot at around 1 second intervals. This time interval is assuming that you aren't utilising the built-in flash. A burst mode is also on offer which will capture up to five frames at 0.2 second intervals, ideal for action shots. A raft of features are also available for the more committed photographer and can be easily accessed through an intuitive combination of physical controls and menu options on the 2 inch LCD display. With 3x optical zoom, automatic/manual white balance, various shooting and flash modes, plus voice captioning, movie and audio recording, the Fuji FinePix 6800 will satisfy all bar the most demanding professional photographer. Professionals would be better served looking at the Fuji S1 Pro, which has a hot shoe for external flashes, will take Nikon F-mount lenses and can save files as uncompressed TIFs - all features not present on the 6800.
Image quality is the determining feature by which a digital camera stands or falls, and the FinePix 6800 definitely stands. Fuji's 3.3 MegaPixel Super CCD, uses a clever array of photodiodes and enables pictures to be output at a whopping 6 megapixel resolution. Images are saved as JPEGs and you can select from a wide range of options for picture quality and size, which will fit from 6 to around 200 images on the bundled 16MB SmartMedia. The compression retains good levels of information and the images are crisp, colour accurate, especially in all important flesh tones, plus hold good detail in both highlights and shadows.
Pictures are downloaded to your PC via a USB cradle (supplied). How the camera is recognised is determined by the USB mode your camera is set to each time you plug it into the cradle. DSC mode will see the camera installed essentially as a removable drive, from which you can drag and drop images from the SmartMedia memory. Set the camera to PC Cam mode and it will be installed as a USB camera suitable for use as a WebCam.
Supplied with competent software bundle, power adaptor, cradle, rechargeable lithium battery, cables, 16MB memory and case, the Fuji FinePix 6800 comes with everything you need to get started, and with a camera of this quality you may find it hard to stop. --Jason Weston
Product Description
The Fujifilm FinePix 6800 is a high-end digital camera that continues in the tradition of the FinePix 4700. Sporting a new body designed by Porsche, the 6800 is an eye-catching number. The 3.3-megapixel SuperCCD captures images at resolution of six megapixels (2,832 x 2,128). The six-megapixel image is interpolated up from the original 3.3-megapixel CCD image data. Fujifilm's proprietary SuperCCD design uses octagonal pixels, as opposed to the normal square, providing more image data than conventional designs. In other words, an octagonal pixel is worth more than a square one. The lens is a quality Fujinon 3x optical zoom.
An assortment of shooting modes, including portrait, scene, auto and manual, all help to make the 6800 a versatile photo tool. The FinePix is also capable of recording up to 160 seconds of 320 x 240 video at 10 frames per second. Also, a continuous-shooting mode lets you snap up to five frames per second with a maximum of five photos before you need to let the camera record the image data. Additionally, depending on your memory card size, you can record from 30 to 60 minutes of audio.
The FinePix 6800 comes with a USB docking cradle that remains connected to your computer--similar to a USB card reader. The cradle allows you to easily transfer your images and recharge your battery. The 6800 also comes with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, 16 MB SmartMedia card, USB cable, video cable, hand strap and assorted software.

With the market place flooded with a multitude of digital cameras, all offering the extra feature, buying a digital camera could not be more confusing. All the buzz words, pixels and battery life led me on a 5 weeks pilgrimage to find a value for money camera which is a cut above the rest. Enter the Fujifilm 6800Zoom! After 6 months of using this camera, I can only describe it as a marvel of engineering and technology. The camera is packed (and I mean packed) with features. Spot metering, white balance adjustment, audio clip with shot taken, video (160s in one shoot), scene selection are some of the wonderful features. The operation of the camera is a breeze with the well thought out pictorial menu driven software. The camera cradle with the USB interface really makes this camera a cut above the rest. With the full metal casing, the look and feel of the camera gives the user a special treasured feeling. All 5 starts to Fuji!

If you are working just off the absolute pro edge, then this is it. It straightforward to use, allows rapid customisation for your preferences (ie do you usually shoot at ISO 100, 200 or 400?), and the automatic mode is pretty smart.
The PC link is first-rate via USB (it just looks like another drive once you've loaded the drivers), and it can be adapted to be a screencam.
The pictures are sharp and clear, especially if you use the higher-quality modes, and its light tolerance is good. It has a separate viewfinder which shows the zoom, along with the standard LCD display.
I'm still learning my way about. the only thing I've spotted so far is a slight tendency to barrel distortion on macro; this may be due to me so don't take it as gospel.
Generally the nicest digital camera I've had yet.

As soon as you pick this camera up you know you are holding a truely exceptional camera. The design (by F.A Porsche) makes you just want to stare at the camera, but it is whats inside that is even more impressive. In simple terms, it allows you to take extremly sharp images that are very detailed. It also has a great 3x optical 4.4x digital zoom so you can zoom in for the best picture every time. The genius of this camera doesnt stop there though. Fuji have thought of everything. When you want to put your pictures onto your pc so you can print them of simply store them, you dont need to search for the wire that connects your camera to the pc because the camera is supplied with a craddle that it sits in. This cradle is conncted to your pc and to transfer your pictures, you just sit the camera in the craddle and use the software provided with the camera to put your pictures onto your pc. Very simple, but a fantastic extra feature. Overall, the camera is very easy to use and provides excellent results. I can't recommend it enough.
