Fujifilm FinePix F401 2.1MP Digital Camera w/ 3x Optical Zoom

Product Description

The FinePix F401 Zoom brings together a unique combination of seductive metal styling, powerful technology and easy-to-use features. Despite boasting a 3X optical zoom lens the FinePix F401 Zoom is compact enough to slip into a shirt pocket or handbag. The USB cradle makes easy work of transferring photos to your computer and ensures the batteries are always fully charged. The 3G Super CCD sensor delivers stunning, noise-free images in even the most challenging situations.

Amazon.com Review

Sporting a 2.1-megapixel CCD and 3x optical zoom, Fuji's FinePix F401 is encased in a sleek brushed-metal shell that makes it smaller than most other cameras. Shooting is quick and easy on automatic settings, taking about 3 seconds between shots.

The camera can create 4-megapixel images by interpolating, or "guessing" details, via Fuji's Super CCD. The results are OK, but of course cannot match true 4-megapixel sensors. While the images certainly come out well-contrasted and colorful on all of the resolution settings, slight artifacting is noticeable. Images in low light suffer from noticeable blocks of compression. This may be a problem if you are interested in producing 8-by-10-inch prints; however, it should be fine for standard-size prints or Web viewing.

The 1.5-inch LCD is comfortable enough to use, but it hides the sides of the real image a little bit, which can throw you off while composing shots. The optical viewfinder is small, and often frustrating to use when it is too bright to use the LCD.

The buttons on the back are thoughtfully placed and can be reached easily by the fingers. The menu is easy to navigate through, guiding you with a color code for each submenu. The USB and DC power ports are placed on the side of the camera, but one minor quibble is that the typical protective cover for these is missing. Protection for delicate and crucial circuitry like the USB port is definitely needed when you are taking the camera out and about.

As a point and shoot, the F401 is a great camera and a stylish, light design is always a plus. However, its less than impressive imaging and relatively high price should be considered for those seeking performance and value. --Bao Tran

Pros:

Very easy point-and-shoot operation
Well-designed and easily navigable menus
Can use certain manual controls (ISO speed, gain, white balance)

Cons:

Noticeable image artifacting
Lack of port protection

Amazon.com Product Description

The compact FinePix F401 uses Fuji's third-generation 2.1-megapixel Super CCD sensor, which can produce a maximum image file size of 4 megapixels through interpolation. It also features a 3x optical zoom, 3x digital zoom, movie mode, and voice annotation function.

Optics and Resolution
With its 2.1-megapixel Super CCD (with interpolated results up to 4 megapixels) the FinePix F401 delivers resolution up to 2,304 x 1,728 pixels for colorful prints up to 11-by-14 inches. Combined with Fuji's proprietary image-processing method--Pixel Data Coupling--and new noise-reduction technology, the new Super CCD enables the FinePix F401 to deliver a wider range of ISO sensitivities with a minimal increase in CCD "noise."

The FinePix F401 also features a 3x optical aspherical zoom lens (with up to a 3x digital zoom option) that allows for more detailed close-ups.

Fuji's Super CCD
Instead of conventional CCDs with square photodiodes and pixel arrangements, Fuji's Super CCD has octagonal-shaped photodiodes and pixels situated on 45-degree angles. This "honeycomb" pattern increases sensitivity, allowing pixels to be efficiently packed at maximum density. The area of the photodiode in a half-inch Super CCD with 2 million pixels is about 1.6 times as large as the area offered in the conventional CCD with the same number of pixels. The Super CCD improves overall signal-to-noise ratio and offers a much wider dynamic range.

Movie Mode
In movie mode, the FinePix F601 produces color digital videos in multiple creative formats, including QVGA (320 x 240, 10 frames per second) and QQVGA (320 x 160, 30 frames per second with sound).

The limited resolution of your movies guarantees that this feature won't replace your camcorder, but it's perfect for when you just want to capture a quick movie and e-mail it to a friend or relative.

Storage and Transfer
Images are stored on SmartMedia memory cards. The included 16 MB card holds approximately 10 images at the highest 4-megapixel setting or 40 at the normal 2-megapixel setting.

To transfer images to your computer, simply attach the included USB cable between your PC and your camera--your computer should automatically recognize the camera and let you move the pictures to your hard drive.

Power
The camera is powered by rechargeable lithium-ion battery, which is charged by the included AC adapter.

Size
At 3.3 by 2.7 by 1 inches 6.5 ounces, the FinePix F401 is quite light and comfortable in the palm of your hand--perfect for shooting pictures wherever you roam.

More Features

Shutter speeds range from 3 to 1/1,000 seconds with adjustable ISO sensitivity of 100/200/400, including a high-sensitivity 1-megapixel (1,280 x 960) mode at ISO 800/1600.
Continuous shooting modes: 4 frames per second for 5 pictures for either the first 5 frames or final 5 frames
Voice-memo function records up to 30 seconds of audio with each picture

Contents and Recommended Accessories
This package contains the FinePix F401 digital camera, 16MB SmartMedia card, lithium-ion rechargeable battery, AC adapter-battery charger, wrist strap, USB cable, printed manual, and CD-ROM featuring FinePixViewer software and drivers.

We recommend a higher-capacity SmartMedia card.

Terrible.......2007-08-06

Three times I have contacted the supplier and I never have receive a response. The camera received was broken and I demand a reimbursement or a new product.

DAMAGED PRODUCT BUT THEY TOOK CARE OF IT.......2007-06-04

I RECEIVED THE CAMERA AND IT WAS DAMAGED WHEN I CONTACTED THEM THEY SAID THEY DID NOT HAVE ANY MORE OF THAT SPEC. ITEM BUT THEY WOULD SEND ME A RETURN SHIPPING LABEL AND THEY DID WHAT THEY SAID IT WAS GREAT SERVICE.

THE GOOD CAMERA THAT WASNT.......2007-05-24

Well, the camera is apparently a very popular fuji brand. However, when I purchased my camera (brand new) the LCD view finder monitor didnt even work! Production on the particular item has long ceased, which makes it vertially impossible to fix or replace. So, if you want to take a coin toss chance on spending your hard earned money, be my guest. I did, and lost!

Fujifilm FinePix F401 2.1MP Digital Camera w/ 3x Optical Zoom.......2007-05-20

Take outstanding outdoor photos. Easy to use, aim and shoot. I highly recommend the Fujifilm FinePix F401 to new users of digital cameras.

Never got to use it........2007-05-15

Mine won't be the greatest of reviews as the camera I ordered arrived in non-working condition and I had to get a refund... Whether it is a really good camera or a bad one I simply cannot say as I never had the chance to use it. Sorry.

Really good value.......2005-07-07

For those that need a simple dvd player, this is a very good choice. It plays DVD, DVD-R/W, DVD+R/W, VCD, JPEG CD's, and MP3/WMA. The outputs consist of the typical analog (Red, White, yellow cord), the better S-video (weird 5-pin circular hole), and the superior Component (Red, Green, Blue cord). The DVD player also comes with the digital audio DTS and Dolby Digital decoders allowing for those 5.1 and above sound systems; Not to mention the virtual surround option for those nasty cheap DVD's that only have 2.0 sound, which actually helps the sound created by recievers with the Neo:6 and Prologic II(x) options.

The only limitation to the product is the lack of a Toslink optical out. Yeah you are stuck with a coaxial, but honestly, quality doesn't change with the optical cables. You might even be better off as toslink connectors are reported to be delicate, but it is still a limiting factor.

As far as system menus go, I enjoy the ease of use this one particularly offers. Those of us that are picky enjoy the ability to tweak the image to our liking, as well as changing the sound to hear dialogue better.

In our living room, we have gone through DVD players left and right for skipping problems, or complete failure to recognize any DVD, but the Pioneer DV-270 in my room has gone strong for almost two years. In short, the player prooves to be a good value with all the necessities, and no problems.
