The S8000fd comes equipped with Fujinon's 18x Wide Angle Optical Zoom lens, offering great flexibility in a compact SLR body style camera. With a 27mm-486mm equivalent, it's offers a great deal of versatility for composing shots. The fixed lens eliminates the need for additional zoom or wide angle lenses, and it's a sealed system, which prevents dust contamination – the #1 D-SLR repair complaint. This model also features a full-resolution ISO equivalency of ISO 1600. The S8000fd can achieve ISO 3200 and ISO 6400 at 50% (4MP or lower) resolution. Such high light sensitivities allow for faster shutter speeds, which help reduce blurring caused by both camera shake and subject movement. To offer the best of both worlds, the S8000fd uses "Dual Image Stabilization". This combination of mechanical sensor shift stabilization and Fujifilm's Picture Stabilization Technology helps utilize a combination of higher ISO levels and faster shutter speeds. Dual Image Stabilization steadies the photographer's hand, and protects against camera shake and subject movement for total anti-blur protection. As a result, an increase in clarity and sharpness is achieved, even in low light conditions or when shooting moving subjects. The S8000fd features Fujifilm's Face Detection technology, identifying up to 10 faces in a framed scene. Once faces are identified and prioritized, the S8000fd adjusts its focus and exposure accordingly to ensure the sharpness and clarity of human subjects in the picture, regardless of background. Face Detection technology on the S8000fd also includes a new Automatic Red Eye Removal feature. Red eye is a common complaint given by 60% of digital camera users. In this mode, the camera instantly checks each detected face for red eye, and if it's found, corrects it automatically, saving the time consuming process of fixing it in your PC after the image is downloaded. FujiFilm's i-Flash (Intelligent Flash) detects subtle lighting differences within a scene and then varies the flash intensity accordingly. It also leverages the high sensitivity of the FinePix S8000fd to enable the camera to use less flash, resulting in an image that displays pleasing, natural tones without a "washed-out" effect. And with an automatic pop-up flash, it's always ready when you need it.
Like many of Fuji's 2007 models, the FinePix S8000fd features an xD/SD Compatible memory card slot, which accepts not only Fujifilm’s
traditional xD-Picture Cards but also Secure Digital (SD) and Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC) cards.
