FinePix J10 Features and Benefits

No fuss controls.

The layout of buttons has been designed so that the camera body remains uncluttered and can be operated easily with one hand. Featuring explanations for each shooting mode, scene position, and control setting, the interface is designed to take the guesswork out of selecting camera settings.

All-in-all the FinePix J10 is so easy to operate that even the youngest members of the family will be able to use it with minimal instruction.

---

3x Optical zoom.

The camera's 3x optical zoom has been especially developed by Fujinon, the division of Fujifilm responsible for lens manufacture, which is also a leading provider of broadcast-grade television lenses.

The FinePix J10 lets you enjoy a range of picture-taking options, from atmospheric wide-angle scenes to dramatic close-ups.

---

High resolution 2.5-inch LCD screen.

The FinePix J10 features a large high-resolution 2.5-inch, 235,000 pixel LCD screen, which has a reinforced glass coating for scratch-free durability. In addition, the LCD screen is coated with an anti-glare surface to increase visibility when framing or reviewing images in bright sunlight, which means that sharing your images with others is easier than ever before.

---

Convenient xD and SD compatibility.

If you already own a camera, but are thinking of upgrading to this model, it doesn't necessarily mean that you have to consider any additional expense of replacing a perfectly good memory card.

The FinePix J10 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 J10 makes it possible for you to get that picture even if your memory card is full. The 12MB internal memory built into this compact 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 FinePix J10 should be an additional xD card, which will allow you to accommodate almost as many images as you like.

A low light marvel.

Photos taken in low light are the ones that are most likely to produce disappointing results. Limited flash range and direct light can mean the foreground is harshly lit and the background lost all together. If the flash isn't used at all, the image can suffer from digital interference called 'noise' as the sensor struggles to pick up all of the detail in the scene. Moving images can be blurred as the camera keeps the shutter open for longer to allow as much light in as possible.

So Fujifilm has put 70 years of experience in imaging into fine-tuning the light sensitivity and flash systems of its cameras. You wouldn’t normally expect a camera placed at such an affordable price point to feature such technology but Fujifilm have and we can assure you, it does work to help you take better pictures.

---

Anti blur.

The camera's Anti-blur system increases its ISO setting and associated shutter speed, so that the shutter can open and close much more quickly, thereby freezing moving action without blur - perfect for school sports fields.

When a still image isn't sufficient, the FinePix J10 movie mode, at 30 frames per second, captures movie clips with sound that are limited in length only by the size of memory card used.

---

Ease of use.

The camera is preset with an extensive selection of scene modes which make it ready to shoot anything from days at the beach to party portraits in an instant. There's even a 'Baby' mode to ensure those all important pictures of baby's first years look spot-on, with skin tones faithfully reproduced.

Simply select a Scene Position that suits your situation and the FinePix J10 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.

---

Create your own 'Slideshow'.

The FinePix J10 features a multitude of options for sharing images once they've been taken, enabling you to share your precious moments again and again with Fujifilm’s new in-camera ‘Slideshow’ function, which displays images one-by-one.

Customer Reviews

Very good
I am very pleased with my new camera. The 8 megapixels produce nice pictures and it is very compact. The delivery was also quite speedy for Amazon's normal Super Saver, which was a nice bonus.

I have just a few negative comments about this product:
1. There are a lack of features - a lot of shooting modes but not much except from that (like being able to shoot in black and white, vivid etc)
2. It is a bit inconvenient accessing the scene modes, but I'm sure I will get used to it
3. When you delete photos, the image you want to delete gets replaced with a blue screen which pixelates out the picture. It takes a long time for the actual photo to be deleted
4. The product picture is very sneaky - there is a raised panel where the screen is, further bulking the camera out. The display photo does not show this, so be warned! It's not quite as thin as it seems.

Those points aside, I have to say the camera is very impressive with the brushed front and despite the raised back, is still rather light and compact. It is outstanding value for money and truly a good camera. The lack of picture modes like the black and white can be compensated with some good photo-editing technology, if you want those extra finishes on your photos.

Overall, a good point and shoot camera, perhaps suited better for people who just want to take photos, want a good price and don't care for those extra bells and whistles.

(I would suggest that you buy the fujifilm 2GB SD card - it gives about 800 photos even with 8MP turned on and I have had absolutely no problems with it. Great value for the price.)

Simple, Easy and Quaility
I've recently got this and the more expensive Fujifilm 12 million pixel f50fd, and I would have to say although the J10 lacks some features such as face detection, its photos are much clearer and the camera is a lot simpler to use. I'd definitely recommend it for a fuss free easy to use camera.

So impressed and I got it for a crazy good price!!!
I bought this camera in Nov 08 at which time another retailer had a great deal on it. Since that time I have been discovering all its wonderful features, like movie capture, landscape, flash on and natural capture. What's fabulous about this camera is that Fuji have thought of all the conditions you may want to shoot in such as party, museum and fireworks. There are a range of selections to help take a very clear vivid picture. The quality of photo is amazing and all features work wonderfully.

The only fault that it has is sometimes photos are blurred which happens if you have the wrong feature on and it takes a second to take a photo so you can not click and click very quickly so movement shots are better if recorded. A 2G card goes a long way with some 400 and something photos. Im happy and it has bought loads of fun memories. Also my younger sister can use it with easy so its good for 9+.
