Continuing the tradition started by its stylish predecessor, the FinePix Z10fd, the FinePix Z20fd is a new, ultra-glam digital camera packed with useful features that let you face it, beam it, blog it and now roll it with a new MPEG-4 movie recording mode for the movie-crazed among us.

The 10-megapixel FinePix Z20fd features an ultra-portable design, a Fujinon 3x optical zoom lens, 2.5-inch LCD screen, and packs 45MB of internal memory to give you some extra room when your memory card is full. The style-savvy FinePix Z20fd also introduces Fujifilm’s handy new Dual Blog Mode that automatically resizes any still image or movie you've captured, letting you post pictures and videos to blogs, video-sharing websites like YouTube, or e-mail to friends with ease.

Face Detection in action

Automatic Red-Eye Removal

As with the FinePix Z10fd, the Z20fd also allows picture takers to Face It with Fujifilm’s innovative Face Detection Technology with Automatic Red Eye Removal for capturing the ultimate group shots and Beam It with Fujifilm’s IrSimple technology to share the image instantly with friends. A one-touch selectable mode that identifies up to 10 human faces in a scene, Face Detection Technology sets the correct focus for a chosen primary face and exposure for all detected faces automatically, regardless of where subjects are located within the frame. After the shot is taken, each detected face is instantly checked for red eye; if found, it is corrected automatically, saving the time consuming process of fixing it later. Fujifilm’s IrSimple technology allows for fast, easy wireless image transfer to any IrSimple-equipped device.

Fujifilm’s Picture Stabilization Technology uses higher sensitivities -- up to ISO 1600 in the Z20fd -- and faster shutter and operational speeds, that help reduce camera shake, allowing photographers to capture the moment just as it was meant to be captured.

This high-style camera can also Roll It with an impressive Movie mode, capturing full motion MPEG4 video with the touch of a separate movie shutter button. Using the Successive Movie mode, in-camera editing allows for the creation of a 60-second movie clip, even when shooting in two or more scenes is desired. Start and restart multiple times to build a 60-second compilation, and edit the start and end points.

Movie Mode makes it simple to capture and share clips

Additional Features

Dual shutter releases One button for still capture, one for movie record, for ease of use.

i-Flash Intelligent Flash i-Flash detects subtle lighting differences within a scene, and then varies the flash intensity accordingly. It also leverages the high sensitivity of the Z20fd to enable the camera to use less flash, preventing that "blasted with light" effect that so many digital camera flashes leave you with. The result is pleasing, natural tones with no flash "wash-out."

Micro Thumbnail View Clear 10 x 10 array on the big display makes navigating photos easy!

Dual Shot mode In this mode, the FinePix Z20fd quickly shoots two images in succession -- one with and one without the flash -- saving both. This convenient function lets the user perform an on-the-spot picture comparison and decide whether the FinePix Z20fd produced the most pleasing photo with flash, or without.

Special scene modes The FinePix Z20fd has 16 scene positions, including Fireworks, Beach and Snow, offering a one-touch setting for almost any situation.

xD/SD/SDHC-compatible slot A single media slot that accepts both xD Picture Card and SD/SDHC media cards.

Stamp It Add a little fun to your images by "stamping" a variety of fun designs to up to three detected faces in your shots!

Battery life Long-life rechargeable Li-ion battery.

Customer Reviews

Fun Little camera
This camera is so small I can take it anywhere.
The quality of the pictures are really good.
Easy to use and very convenient.

Probably could have found a camera better equipped for the money
Good camera. I was looking for something different and I liked how the door slides in the front to turn the camera on and off and the zoom lens doesn't stick out like others. I was debating betweeen this and the Exilm. I went Fuji because I figured they have been in the camera and optics industry for a long time and would have the best quality. The quality seems great. A few downsides...The viewfinder to take the pictures in the front of the camera in the upper corner is usually where I put my left middle finger so once I found a few pictures taken with my finger in it, I had to remember to keep away. My girlfriend did the same thing so I know it's not just me. Also, I was hoping there would be a zoom availible when recording videos, but I don't see this availible. Lastly, this has a 3x zoom and so does my Cannon, but for some reason my Cannon seems to zoom much further.

Great Little Camera!
I was very impressed with this camera. The picture quality was supurb and it was very easy to use. For those of you who are clumbsy or have kids that want to look at the picture you took "right away" this camera is perfect. Why do I say that? My last camera ( a Canon, which I also loved dearly) had a retractable lens. My son accidently dropped the camera on a carpeted surface and the lens bent and would not retract. Thus, my investment had to be trashed. The Fuji does not have a retractable lens and thus the problem has been eliminated! The bright colors are awesome! I am still learning about all the features, but I would recommend this camera to anyone!
