Fuji FinePix S6000fd Digital Camera Review

Fujifilm’s FinePix S6500fd digital camera sports one key selling point: industry-first hardware-based face detection technology to enable the camera to recognise faces and optimise settings to get the best photograph in just 0.04 seconds. Along with Fujifilm’s 6-Megapixel Super CCD sensor and Real Photo Technology II, impressive ISO 100 to 3200 sensitivity and Fujinon 10.7x (28 to 300mm equivalent) optical zoom lens, the FinePix S6500fd (Best Current Price: £218/$349) combines the photographic possibilities of a digital SLR with the ease of use of a compact. It’s also very competitively priced.

The FinePix S6500fd is aimed at people for whom photography is a hobby. If you want better-than-average 6-Megapixel image quality and manual controls but also want the option of point-and-shoot simplicity on demand, then it’s a solid choice.
