The Fuji film finepix F31fd is an elegant looking camera with its silver scratch resistant outer case. It is extremely lightweight pocket point and shoot camera that also packs the picture quality of an SLR. The camera has a comfortable grip, multiple exposure modes, auto & manual focus, 8 white balance modes (including a custom hold mode) and a six-mode popup flash. This camera takes bright, vibrant pictures indoors, and the 3x optical zoom is amazing.
The super CCD HR technology helps to capture more light with little noise at ISO 3200 settings also. The user interface is extremely easy to learn and navigate. The camera supports dual media slots (SD/MMC and xD-Picture Card) to provide more storage options. It provides compatibility with different media modes and allows users to use maximum of these. The 2.5-inch LCD display helps the photo shooters capture each image perfectly. The Fuji film’s Picture Stabilization technology utilizes the heightened sensitivity of the FinePix at ISO 1600 and high-speed shutter settings to prevent camera shake or freeze subject movement, reducing blur to a large extent.
This easy to access feature let’s the F31fd choose the correct light sensitivity and best-matching shutter speed by itself, for the highest quality digital pictures. The flash fine-tunes the flash output for shooting with high-sensitivity settings and pops up automatically when required. It recognizes scene conditions and determines the optimum flash output to ensure optimum lighting. The subjects in the foreground appear natural and the background detail is bright and clear. The images are vivid and sharp. The zoomed images to 3X are also sharp in the Auto mode.
The finepix does a lot of auto settings that leaves the photographers little to do on the adjustment front and lets them enjoy the photographic experience to a maximum. The battery lasts long with the extended life of the Lithium ion battery. The Fuji film finepix F31fd combines the power of an SLR and the ease of use of a point-and-shoot. It is well suited to amateurs and intermediate photographers alike.
