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.

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.

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.
