Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

The F31fd Finepix digital still camera features Face Detection, a new technology designed to significantly improve your picture taking by identifying human subjects' faces in the frame (up to 10 faces) and in real time, determining the optimal focus and exposure settings for the absolute best results possible in any shooting conditions. Behind Fujifilm's Face Detection technology is a newly developed LSI chip combined with patented software that allows the FinePix F31fd digital still camera to reach a level of performance in digital photography never before possible.Blurry images are the most common complaint of digital camera users. Fujifilm's Picture Stabilization mode eliminates blurs due to subject movement and camera shake; even in low light backgrounds. Simply select the Picture Stabilization icon on the dial on top of the FinePix F31fd, and you're ready to shoot. Picture Stabilization automates professional photographic techniques to deliver clear images with true color and fine detail.Sensitivity in photographs means you get true color, fine detail and clear pictures. The FinePix F31fd utilizes Fujifilm's 6th generation Super CCD-HR to capture more light with less electronic noise. Combined with the RP Processor II and an aspherical Fujinon lens system, which are used widely in professional broadcast TV cameras, the FinePix F31fd can reach groundbreaking levels of sensitivity, up to ISO 3200 with very low noise, which can cause grainy pictures. This ultra-high sensitivity means you can capture the perfect picture, even in low light, just as your eye sees it. And all with extremely fast operational and processing speeds so you never miss a shot.Now your digital camera will last longer than you thanks to an extended life Lithium Ion battery. The FinePix F31fd delivers an astonishing 580 shots per charge, which means you're always ready for that next photo opportunity. And then simply connect the camera to the AC adapter to recharge and be ready for your next party, wedding, vacation or any other picture-taking occasion.Tired of your pictures looking washed out because the flash was too bright? Fujifilm's i-Flash system ensures your image is always properly exposed with just the right amount of light. The results are more natural looking subjects and backgrounds that are bright and full of crisp detail, so you capture the picture just the way you see it.The FinePix F31fd makes it easy to frame your shot and share your memories with a high resolution LCD. The 2.5" LCD has 230, 000 pixel resolution and a fast refresh rate giving you smooth, clear viewing in high-resolution color. The LCD adjusts image brightness to surrounding light levels automatically. For added control in darker settings, simply press the one-touch manual gain up to increase the LCD brightness for better viewing. Bright sunlight viewing is made easy with thanks to Clear View Filter Technology. This anti-glare coating is used on millions of plasma and LCD screens worldwide, and makes the F31fd's LCD viewable even in direct light.

5.0 out of 5 stars Probably the best and most highly respected compact camera currently available., 20 Jun 2007
By Doughty - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
You may already know that this unassuming little camera, along with its predecessor, the F30, is widely considered a modern classic. What is unique is its proprietary Fuji sensor which, whilst not the highest in pixel count, currently offers by far the best low-light performance of any compact on the market. That is not just my opinion - read the major review sites to see how this camera stands out.

In real terms you get great pictures in conditions that flummox most non-SLR cameras, especially in typically overcast UK conditions or indoors when normal cameras would force you to resort to unflattering use of flash.

Having previously been a little disappointed with the results of a tiny Panasonic Lumix, which produced shockingly noisy prints even in bright weather, I did plenty of research before buying this Fuji. Whilst this is a fraction larger, it is still highly pocketable and the final image quality is far superior. It may not have the image stabilisation of the Lumix or my larger KM A200 but it more than makes up for it in low-noise high ISO modes.

I have taken lovely hand-held shots from my flat of night rolling in over the city, something I wouldn't normally contemplate without a long exposure on a tripod. More importantly for me, the F31fd takes impeccable natural light portraits of my baby daughters whether indoors or out.

I was tempted to go for the newer F40fd with 8MP sensor and SD card compatibility until I found it lacked manual modes and looked ugly and cheap in comparison (though some reviews prefer it proving the old adage that beauty is in the eye of the beholder). Why they didn't just upgrade the sensor and maybe offer a black option I will never know, but it's telling that they have retained the F31fd alongside.

Anyway, this attractive, solid camera is as good as compacts get right now. Besides, after about 5MP the typical limiting factor on compacts is lens and CCD quality rather than CCD pixel count. With higher resolutions shrinking the individual pixel area it may be that image quality actually rolls off with current 8MP compact sensors. This Fuji may not have Leica glass or a 28mm wide angle end, but its lens does a great job of retaining optical resolution. It also has great ergonomics and handling and a usable face detection system.

The only things I can fault the Fuji F31fd on are the lack of a (rare) timelapse facility, no image stabilisation (though it does have an anti-blur mode that uses its incredible high-ISO performance), the lack of a true wide-angle lens, its reliance on (increasingly cheap) XD cards and the absence of widescreen 16:9 movie or photo modes.

All in all, this is a tremendous little camera capable of astonishing real-world results for far less investment than supposedly better brands. I can't recommend it highly enough, even or perhaps especially if you're after a point and shoot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic camera with great natrual light support, 1 April 2007
By S. Williamson "Scott" - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this camera due to reviews about its "super CCD" light sensor which can produce good pictures in light that other cameras would struggle with. It does exactly that, with a natural light mode which will not use the flash and can still take great pictures. I found that this camera topped all the reviews I could find about it.

I bought it to take on safari, thinking that we'd be in low light situations a lot and that a flash would be pretty much useless. The camera was flawless and produced great pictures in light that would have stumped others.

Its well made, being a metal case and its quick to start up. Battery life is fantastic and seems to be up to the 500+ shots claimed. On our trip we took over 300 photos and the camera spent most of the holiday on full charge, only showing some discharge near the end. In the future I won't take the charger with me, one less thing to pack or worry about. Combine this with a 1Gb xD card and you've got a great holiday/quick camera.

I'd rate this over other 8 & 10 megapixel cameras, high pixels are no use if the picture get is poor or the light sensor cannot produce a clear picture.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Picture Quality, 4 Jun 2007
By M. Grace (Cumbria, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am principally a Digital SLR user, and wanted an easily pocketable camera to replace my old Canon Ixus 400. I naturally went for the highest MP size in the Ixus range - the 10.0MP Ixus 900Ti - but was very disappointed with the quality of the results. The pictures lacked detail and were particularly soft in the corners. A second 900Ti had even poorer picture quality (both were worse than my original 4MP Ixus 400) so it was back to the drawing board. After weeks of researching magazines and on-line reviews, I was impressed most by reviews of the F31fd, and I have not been disappointed. Admittedly it hasn't all the bells and whistles of the Ixus but the picture quality is superb right the way across the frame, with corners impressively sharp. Besides the usual programme settings, the F31fd offers the more creatively-minded control of shutter speed and aperture, an feature lacking in the Ixus and many other of the more expensive compacts.

If taking photos is about getting the best pictures possible, you can't go wrong with the F31fd. It is so much cheaper than most of its rivals - at £130 approx it is worth every penny.
