Best picture quality among point and shoot (easy to use) cameras.
, May. 8, 2008
QuickTake:
Pros: Photo quality. Especially night time. Fast shutter speed. Many built in settings.

An impressive point and shoot with overall good price performance ratio

Addition of shutter and aperture priority and increased maximum exposure duration up to 15 seconds would have made this camera ideal for the beginners in serious photography.
Addition of shutter and aperture priority and increased maximum exposure duration up to 15 seconds would have made this camera ideal for the beginners in serious photography.
QuickTake:
Pros: Big (biggest) sensor size and impressive ISO are two big pluses for this camera.
Cons: Body and make are lows of the camera.... appears as a plastic camera from the front.

If you've shunned Fujifilm cameras previously due to their proprietary xD-Picture Card format, the new FinePixes are set to change all that with dual card slots that embrace Secure Digital cards as well.

Fuji's FinePix F40fd is a nice point-and-shoot that produces decent images, though it's a tad slow and lacks image stabilization.

Finepix's new F40fd 8.3mp camera produces better photos than some 10mp models we've looked at - with Fujifilm concentrating on the quality of what's captured, not its quantity.
Review Verdict: We were impressed by the F40fd's low-light performance, but less so by its slow start-up and shot-to-shot times, and its lack of true manual functions beyond exposure controls. Even so, it's a quick snapper worth investigating
