Fujifilm Finepix A820 News Release Summary:
New A-Series Models Pack a Punch with 8 & 9-MP Super CCDs, 4x
Optical Zoom and ISO 800
Valhalla, NY, February 22, 2007 - Entry-level just took on a
whole new meaning, as FUJIFILM U.S.A. Inc. today announced the
launch of the eight-MegaPixel FinePix A820. Designed specifically
for the first-time digital camera buyer and consumers seeking an
affordable, easy-to-operate upgrade to their current digital
camera, Fujifilm's FinePix A820 is loaded with features usually
reserved for more advanced models. Both incorporate Fujifilm's
signature Super CCD sensor technology, a 4x Optical Zoom lens
and feature ISO levels of up to ISO 800.
Following in the footsteps of Fujifilm's more advanced digital
cameras, the FinePix A820 shoots with light sensitivities of up
to ISO 800 at full resolution. These higher light sensitivities
enable the user to shoot with faster shutter speeds, which
lessen the likelihood of blurry pictures caused by a moving
subject or the shake of an unsteady hand. To make it easy for
consumers to achieve blur-free results, the FinePix A820
features a "Picture Stabilization" mode in the dial setting.
This easy-to-identify setting automatically chooses the correct
light sensitivity and best-matching shutter speed, producing the
highest quality digital pictures without blur and the noise
often associated with high sensitivity photographs.
The FinePix A820 features a new, intuitive icon-based Graphic
User Interface (GUI). When users switch shooting modes, scene
positions or control settings, a brief explanation of the
setting is momentarily displayed on the LCD screen, taking much
of the guess work out of digital camera operation. Additionally,
both cameras feature a conveniently placed mode dial that
provides easy access to the most commonly used shooting modes,
including Auto, Picture Stabilization and Movie mode and allows
1-touch access to other pre-programmed scene modes.
The FinePix A820 also features a "xD/SD Media Compatible slot";
a single slot that accepts not only Fujifilm's traditional xD-Picture
Cards™, but also SecureDigital™ (SD) media cards. In offering
these media options, Fujifilm is providing greater choice and
flexibility to consumers who purchase Fujifilm digital cameras.
Fujifilm's new A-Series models also offer the following
attractive features:
IrSimple™ Technology: Demonstrating Fujifilm's commitment
to innovation, 'IrSimple™' enables mobile devices – like the
FinePix A820 and A900 – to instantly and wirelessly, connect and
transmit digital images to other IrSimple™ enabled devices such
as other digital cameras, PDAs and photo kiosks. It provides a
faster, more secure means to share pictures with family and
friends.
Fujinon lens: The FinePix A820 features a 4x
optical zoom lens that was developed specifically for the
A-Series by Fujinon, a Fujifilm sister company and leading
provider of broadcast-grade television lenses and other high
quality optical products across many consumer and industrial
applications.
Internal memory: When their xD-picture card or SD memory card
(sold separately) is filled with images, users have extra
internal storage space on each camera to capture additional
pictures.
Large LCD: 2.5-inch LCD display with anti-glare
properties.
Scene modes: A wide range of 16 pre-programmed scene
modes provides top-quality photos in a range of shooting
conditions.
The FinePix A820 will debut in May 2007 with a retail price of
$179.95
