Fujifilm has added another model to its popular 'A' series of competitively-priced compact digital cameras. The 8MP Fujifilm A850 is based around a 1/2.5" sensor and has a 3X zoom. There are 14 scene modes, including museum mode for those pictures in which you actually want artifacts to appear.

Images are captured via a 1/2.5" CCD image sensor with 8.1 effective megapixel resolution, placed behind a Fujinon-branded 3x optical zoom lens that offers a rather tight 36mm-equivalent wide angle through to a 108mm telephoto. There's 24MB of internal memory as well as an SD / MMC card slot to cater for storage, and power comes from two AA batteries with alkalines in the product bundle. Other features include a 2.5" LCD with ~154,000 dot resolution, ISO sensitivities from 100 to 800, NTSC / PAL video and USB computer connectivity, and thirteen scene modes to keep things approachable while still giving a degree of control over the look of images.


 

Salient Features of Fuji FinePix A850 Digital Camera

8.1 Megapixels : Preserve your precious memories,beautifully!
The Fujifilm A850 delivers an impressive 8.1 megapixels of resolution, for pictures that are sharp, clear, and vivid, even when printed at larger sizes.

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

The GUI system
Control is at your fingertips, as the selection of convenient functions is made easy with the FujifilmA850. This simple button layout enables you to access to some of the most popular settings on the camera such as Auto, Anti-blur and movie recording via the intuitive GUI, (Graphical User Interface).

Fujifilm's recently redesigned GUI makes navigating menu options easier than ever before. The system uses an icon-based menu, with accompanying explanations that pop up on the LCD as a new setting is selected.This takes much of the guesswork out of digital camera operation. With less to worry about, you'll have more fun with your picture taking!

High resolution 2.5-inch LCD screen
The Fujififlm A850 features a 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 anti-glare materials 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 SD/SDHC 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 Fujifilm A850 features an SD compatible slot, allowing the use of either 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 Fujifilm A850 makes it possible for you to get that picture even if your memory card is full. The 24MB 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 A850 should be an additional SD card, which will allow you to accommodate almost as many images as you like.
