With a 3x optical zoom Fujinon lens & a 14 megapixel sensor, the Fine Pix JV300 will make a fantastic gift for budding photographers or those after an easy-to-use camera for every day picture taking. The latest technology at an affordable price point The Fine Pix JV300 features Fujifilm’s very latest 14 megapixel CCD sensor & a high quality 3x optical Fujinon zoom lens that lets users capture wide, sweeping scenes & zoom into details, for a closer look. The camera’s LCD screen has been redesigned too – it’s now 2.7 inches in size & offers 150% enhanced brightness over the Fujifilm Fine Pix L55 model it replaces. The enhanced screen means users can enjoy enhanced playback of images & easier composition. What’s more, the camera has been optimised to offer users enhanced start-up times & faster autofocus, so it’s even quicker to use. Automatic brilliance Fujifilm’s Scene Recognition (SR) Auto allows the Fine Pix JV300 to recognise six different types of scene, automatically adjusting the camera’s settings to ensure great pictures. Detectable scenes include Portrait, Macro, Landscape, Night Portrait, Night & Backlit Portrait. For enhanced portraits, users can activate the Fine Pix JV300’s Face Detection with the camera adjusting focus & exposure to guarantee clear & bright images. In addition, the Fine Pix JV300 can automatically spot up to ten different faces in a scene & select settings for optimal capture of all ten individuals, as well as reducing the effects of red-eye if a flash is used. Keeping sharp after dark The Fine Pix JV300 comes equipped with all the imaging technology needed to capture beautiful images in low light situations. The camera’s ISO can be adjusted from 100 right up to 3200, which is ideal for preserving detail & maximizing all available light when shooting after dark. The Fine Pix JV300 also has Digital Image Stabilisation, which automatically detects when images are likely to be blurred & increases the camera’s shutter speed to assist in the capture of sharp pictures. When even more light is needed, the Fine Pix JV300’s on-camera flash boasts i-Flash technology & a maximum flash distance of 3m for beautifully lit pictures after dark. Advanced creativity In addition to the ergonomically placed control dials & mode selector buttons on the rear of the camera, the Fine Pix JV300 has a dedicated record button that users can press to start shooting movies in 720p High Definition (HD) – representing incredible quality at this price point. In-camera video editing functionality enables users to work on their videos without having to upload files to a computer or use editing software – & because the camera captures video & stills in HD quality, users can play them back on an HD ready TV for the whole family to enjoy.
