Fujifilm FinePix F31fd Sample Photos and User Review
April 21st, 2007 by Adam
As I mentioned in my previous post about compact digital cameras I wanted to buy a very useful and small compact camera. I finally decided to buy a Fuji FinePix F31fd instead of Canon G7. The most important advantage of F31fd is its really compact size - it is so handy that I can always carry it with me. Most hybrid and some compact cameras are in fact so big they require to have a special case beacuse they just don’t fit into a pocket. F31fd is really small; you can always have it with you and take hiqh quality photos wherever you are. It also looks very nice and has no useless components.
Here are the most interesting features of Fuji F31fd:
- Face Detection Technology built-in to the camera’s processor
- Real Photo Processor II and new Super CCD HR VI
- ISO 3200 sensitivity at full resolution
- 6.3 million pixels
- 3.0x optical zoom
- Long-life battery (up to 580 shots)
- IR Communication (IR simple™)
- VGA movie capture of 30 frames per second with sound
- PictBridge™ compatible for direct printing without a PC
- Quick response times (0.01 second shutter lag and 1.5 second start-up)
- Aperture and shutter priority modes.
What I also liked in F31fd is its very good optics as for this kind of ultra-compact digital camera with 3x optical zoom. Here is what I found on dpreview.com: “Barrel and pincushion distortion: Nothing to complain about here, barrel distortion is pretty low at 0.5%. At the telephoto end of the zoom there is no measurable distortion at all. We also found no evidence of vignetting.”
I’ve taken many beautiful photos with Fuji F31fd, you can view some sample photos at my Flickr photo sets:
This ultra-compact camera is very powerful. It gives very sharp photos in excellent resolution. High ISO (400-800) performance is very good. Some pictures taken in low light are too dark, but I think this is due to automatic exposure, I’ve been trying to set most effective values in semi-manual modes. The Fuji Finepix F31fd is highly recommended at dpreview.com and I also recommend it as a very good handy digital camera for everyday use.
