NeoCamera review the Fuji F30 and write - 'The Fuji Finepix F30 is an exceptional ultra-compact digital camera which delivers high-quality images with incredibly low image noise. This is the first non-SLR to produce usable images up to ISO 3200, enabling new photographic opportunities. Even more than its predecessor, the F30 is a great camera for indoor photographs due to its high-ISO capabalities, its ultra-compact size and very durable battery life.
Fujifilm FinePix F30 News Release Capture the moment as your eye sees it Fujifilm‚s innovative Real Photo Technology (RPT) takes digital photography to new levels. In 2005, with the introduction of FinePix F10, Fujifilm changed the trend of digital photography by giving photographers new flexibility to capture images with a much higher success rate. The first compact digital camera to incorporate Fujifilm´s Real Photo Technology, the award-winning the FinePix F10, featured ISO 1600 high sensitivity, making it possible to take beautiful pictures in low-light or with fast-moving subjects. In 2006, Fujifilm´s Real Photo Technology continues to evolve and, for the first time, begins to approximate the human eye with its
breakthrough ISO 3200 sensitivity. At PMA, Fujifilm will demonstrate the digital cameras with Capture the moment as your eyes see it‚ theme. Backed by an extensive history of in-house development of innovative imaging technology, including sophisticated CCDs and image processors, Fujifilm is proud to introduce the FinePix F30, the world´s first compact digital camera to offer ISO 3200 sensitivity at its full resolution (6.1 Mega Pixels). Today´s digital cameras offer a constantly expanding range of features, including movie capture, wireless transmission, and more. They are also extremely thin and compact. However, in the race to develop stylish cameras with add-on functions and features, the most important thing may have been overlooked ˆ the fact that a digital camera is primarily a device for capturing and preserving memories beautifully. For compact digital cameras, the real challenge is how to capture the moment as you actually see it with your eyes, rather than the process being driven by how the camera sees it. The ultimate compact digital camera should enable you to take great pictures on the spur of the moment, whenever and wherever you encounter them. To make this goal a reality, the new FinePix F30 incorporates the latest innovations in Fujifilm´s Real Photo Technology.
New Super CCD HR Generation
The newly developed sixth-generation Super CCD transforms light to digital signals more efficiently, achieving an unprecedented level of sensitivity for a compact digital still camera. Even the smallest amount of light is efficiently and accurately captured for processing as image elements. The new CCD also enhances imaging performance with reduced noise level, resulting in truly impressive picture quality. Newly developed Real Photo Processor
Fujifilm´s own noise reduction technology effectively minimizes noise, resulting in enhanced color reproduction and gradation. The new cameras also offer improved accuracy and speed of auto-focus, especially in low light. Additionally, noise reduction is applied to movie capture, making it possible to capture clear, sharp moving images even at high-sensitivity sensitivities.
