The Fujifilm FinePix Z3 is fashionably
elegant in either silver or blue in a 20mm (0.8
in.) thin all-metal ultra-compact body.
Good looks aside, the Fujifilm Z3 features the
5th Generation Super CCD HR which, together with
Real Photo Processor II, provides low noise high
ISO (up to ISO 1600) results -- allowing impressive
low-light photography.
It has 5.1MP resolution, a3x optical zoom non-extending
lens and a high resolution (230,000 pixels) extra
large 2.5 in. LCD monitor with scratch resistant,
reinforced acrylic protective shield.
A new "Intelligent-Flash" [i-Flash]
system prevents washed-out overexposure of the
main subject when using high ISOs. Used together
with high ISO, i-Flash ensures that both the background
[high ISO] and main subject [i-Flash] are properly
exposed in low-light situations when flash is
used. A Dual Shot mode takes 2 pictures, one with
flash and one without -- then displays them side-by-side
for on-the-spot comparison.
Picture Stabilization automatically sets the
ISO and shutter speed to prevent blurring due
to camera shake or a fast-moving subject.
Fourteen [14] easy-to-use scene modes automate
exposure in many common picture-taking situations
such as fireworks, beach, snow, sunset, party.
VGA (640x480) Video movie with sound is captured
at 30fps.
PictBridge-compatibility means that users can
print directly from camera to a PictBridge-compatible
printer without going through a computer.
The Fujifilm FinePix Z3 should appeal
to those looking for an easy-to-use ultra compact
digital camera that not only looks stylish but
has true low-light capability.
