VALHALLA, NY -- 08/12/08 --
FUJIFILM U.S.A. Inc. today announced three new
additions to their 2008 digital camera line up -- the D-SLR-styled, HD
compatible FinePix S2000HD, the FinePix F60fd, a powerful, technology-rich
compact digital camera and the ultra-compact, wide-angled FinePix J150w.
Each camera offers the user a different option in features, styles and
price points, meeting a full range of wants, needs and desires.
FinePix S2000HD
The FinePix S2000HD is perfect for advanced amateur photographers and
sports a 10-MegaPixel 1/2.3" CCD, a powerful 15x wide-angle optical zoom
(27.6mm-414mm equivalent) and an extra large 2.7" wide-view LCD. As the
first Fujifilm digital camera with HD compatibility, the FinePix S2000HD
has the ability to capture still pictures in a true widescreen 16:9 aspect
ratio enabling distortion-free full screen playback for the clearest
display possible on an HDTV. The S2000HD can also convert movies in-camera
into a HDTV signal output compatible with 720p (progressive) allowing the
user to realize the full benefits of their home theater system. The FinePix
S2000HD is small enough to fit in the palm of a hand and will debut at the
retail price of $299.95 in September 2008.
FinePix F60fd
As the latest addition to Fujifilm's award-winning F-Series lineup, the
FinePix F60fd, like the FinePix F50fd before it, combines intuitive use
with the most advanced features and technology available, enabling
photographers of all levels to capture the moment as their eye sees it.
Featuring a 12-MegaPixel 1/1.6" Super CCD HR, 3.0x optical zoom and a new,
extra large 3.0" LCD, the FinePix F60fd combines ease of use with a range
of powerful features users have come to expect from Fujifilm's more
advanced digital cameras. With the addition of Dual Image Stabilization,
Face Detection 3.0 Technology with Automatic Red-Eye Removal function and
new SR AUTO (Scene Recognition) mode, the F60fd takes compact digital
cameras to a new level, arming users with a host of features and enabling
them to take pictures never before possible. The FinePix F60fd will begin
shipping in September 2008 at a retail price of $299.95.

digital camera line. As with its J-series predecessors, the FinePix J150w

10-MegaPixel CCD sensor, an extra-large 3.0" LCD and 5x wide-angle optical
