Designed for the most demanding style-conscious buyer wanting a truly pocketable camera without compromises, the FinePix Z200fd is guaranteed to turn heads.
Pocketable and durable
The slender design is almost totally flat, meaning the camera can be carried in a shirt or jacket pocket despite offering the power and versatility of a 5x optical zoom.
Of course style is nothing without substance, and the whilst the FinePix Z200fd's body may be slender, it is packed with powerful features and advanced technologies designed to make getting perfect pictures – shot after shot - easier than ever.
Versatile 5x optical zoom
Fujifilm has been perfecting the unique internal vertical zoom lens that allows the camera to be so compact. Rather than extending outwards, the optical zoom moves up and down beneath the lens to give a zoom range of 33mm to 165mm (x 5).
Despite its compact size, there are no compromises with optical clarity and speed of operation. The lens is robust, reliable, and delivers sharp pictures every time.
The amazing power and versatility of the 5x optical zoom allows you to use a wide angle to capture the entire scene or to take great close ups from a distance whilst the high resolution of this 10 million megapixel camera allows you to enlarge and crop portraits, or elements of scenes, without compromising the quality of the image.
High resolution 2.7-inch LCD
A camera of this class demands the very best LCD, and at a generous size of 2.7" and a resolution of 230,000 pixels, you can't get much better. This pixel canvas ensures that it is easy to see photo details and read the intuitive GUI menus that this camera has to offer.
Sensing ambient light, the LCD automatically adjusts brightness for optimum viewing indoors or outdoors. Manual control can provide additional brightness.
Unlike other inferior cameras, the LCD is protected by a scratch resistant, reinforced acrylic protective shield, so even if loose in a pocket, the LCD has its own in-built protection.
The extra-large LCD makes it easy to frame your photos, compose slideshows and playback the results to friends in brilliant, rich colour.
Convenient xD and SD compatibility
The FinePix Z200fd features an xD/SD compatible slot, allowing the use of either xD Picture Card, SD or SDHC media to store and transfer your photos.
This will give you the flexibility to buy the card you want, use cards from previous cameras, or choose the media that fits with your other desktop devices like laptops, PDAs or card readers.
Internal memory
The FinePix Z200fd makes it possible for you to get that picture even if your memory card is full. The 52MB of internal memory built into this compact model provides enough storage for up to 86 photographs, (at 2MP setting), and ensures that you will never have to miss that special shot.
Think of it as your internal insurance policy for photo opportunities. With that said, the main storage for images on the Z200fd should be an additional xD card, which will allow you to accommodate almost as many images as you like.
Real Photo Technology
Driving the FinePix Z200fd is Fujifilm's unique Real Photo Technology (RPT). The guiding principles behind RPT are simple; to set the highest possible standards for overall image quality, to expand digital photography opportunities and to give you fewer wasted shots.
With the human eye as the ideal, Real Photo Technology cameras are designed from the ground up to capture 'real' photographs with stunning quality - giving you the power to capture the moment exactly as the eye sees it, no matter how challenging the shooting conditions.
Face Detection technology
Face Detection
The FinePix Z200fd makes perfect portraits simple with Fujifilm's Face Detection technology. A green square surrounds the face of the primary subject on the camera's LCD screen, whilst white squares identify up to nine other subjects to optimise focus, white balance and exposure for up to ten faces in a single frame.
Movement tracking keeps the camera 'locked on' to its subjects until they move out of the picture. The technology works irrespective of the subject's position in the frame, and is not confused by people wearing glasses.
Conventional camera Automatic Red Eye Removal
Say goodbye to red eye for good
Taking Fujifilms acclaimed Face Detection system one step further The FinePix Z200fd also offers automatic red eye removal; the FinePix uses the system to find and instantly correct any red eye from every face in the frame.
The FinePix Z200fd's red eye removal system is not confused by lips or red coloured jewellery, as some other cameras can be, as it works in tandem with Fujifilm's Face Detection system to identify the eyes and nothing else.
Wen think you'll agree that letting the camera do this retouching is so much quicker and easier than struggling at home with a paintbrush on a PC!
Couple Timer Group Timer
NEW self-timer modes - The more the merrier...
Couple Timer and Group Timer work in conjunction with Face Detection technology, the self-timer automatically sets off after the camera has detected faces in a frame.
The Couple Timer mode cleverly detects two faces in a frame and will automatically release the shutter button as the two faces come closer together. The Couple Timer mode has three settings so users can set the timer to detect faces at various distances, whether they are standing side by side, or cheek-to-cheek.
The FinePix Z200fd's Group Timer mode can detect up to four faces in a frame and automatically sets the timer to take that precious shot. Using the Face Detection button, the user can select the number of faces in the frame, from one to four, and the camera will only take the shot once all the specified number of faces are in the frame.
In either case, the camera won't take the photo if one of the faces is out the frame, so there's no need to worry about someone being missed out of the shot! Group shots have never been so easy.
Conventional camera Fujifilm's Intelligent Flash
Intelligent Flash and Natural light
Intelligent Flash results in visibly more pleasing, natural looking photos, avoiding the harsh lighting effect that can occur with traditional in-camera flash.
For times when a decision about lighting could mean a missed photo opportunity, the FinePix Z200fd's Natural Light plus Flash mode takes two photos in quick succession, one with flash and one without. Both photos are then displayed side by side for quick comparison so users won't miss the moment fiddling about with flash settings.
To further reduce the chance of blur spoiling shots in low light the FinePix Z200fd also features sensitivity settings up to ISO 1600, allowing natural images that retain the atmosphere of evening events to be taken without the use of flash.
Conventional camera CCD Shift Image Stabilisation
......and freeze
To avoid the problems of camera shake at longer focal length this model features Dual Image Stabilisation.
Basically the cameras high sensitivity lets you use a fast shutter speed to freeze the action in sharp detail, while the built in CCD shift image stabilisation automatically compensates for camera shake.
'Fireworks' scene mode Flower mode
Multiple Scene modes
The FinePix Z200fd's 16 scene modes include 'beach', 'party' and 'fireworks' for optimum photography, no matter what the event. A redesigned graphical user interface and control layout ensure that the powerful feature set remains easy to use even for the novice digital camera user.
Simply select a Scene Position that suits your situation and the camera automatically selects the appropriate shutter speed, exposure and white balance to ensure that you get the most of your photography; more stunning pictures, less hassle.
Playback features - Zoom up and Cropping
Once you’ve captured your group portrait you can use the handy ‘Zoom Up’ feature, which allows you to detect faces in playback mode so that you can check them one by one and ensure that you have captured the image as you intended it.
If you spy a priceless expression amongst your group portrait that stands out from the crowd, then simply select the built in ‘Cropping’ function, which will allow you to automatically crop and save the selected portrait in the camera.
'Blog' mode
Slideshow, Auction and Blog modes

‘Auction Mode’ allows you to montage your images together for easy upload to your favourite sites. Perfect for the ebay savvy amongst us.
