Many consumers are happy to enjoy HD movies on their PC, but with the new HD Player (optional extra), which comes equipped with a remote control, families can gather around their home HDTV to enjoy amazingly detailed stills and high resolution movie playback. Face Recognition Technology For the first time on a Fujifilm digital camera you can identify the people in a picture by name! Fujifilm's Face Recognition Technology gives you the ability to pre-program 8 people into the camera. To do this, you start by taking a picture of the person you want to program into the camera and then tell the camera who that person is (e.g. Mom). You also have the option of inputting the category she belongs to (e.g. friends/family) and the date of her birthday. The next time you take a photo of her, the camera will cleverly recognize \"Mom\" and optimize the settings to ensure that exposure and focus are best suited to her, rather than the other people in the picture. This fun technology can recognize up to 5 pre-programmed people on screen at the same time. In addition, the FinePix Z700EXR's new Picture Search Tool is able to use the Face Recognition data (name, birthday and category) to help you find and playback your photographs quickly and easily. If you want to scroll through all pictures featuring \"Mom\" for example, the camera will be able to select them for you for easy viewing. Pet Detection For those who enjoy the company of four-legged friends, the FinePix Z700EXR comes equipped with Fujifilm's brand new Pet Detection technology, allowing users the ability to detect up to 10 faces of dogs or cats and automatically optimize the focus. The FinePix Z700EXR is programmed to recognize 57% of the Fédération Cyno Logique Internationale (FCI) registered dogs, 80% of the Top 20 Dogs in the American Kennel Club (AKC) Ranking and 60% of The Cat Fancier's Association (CFA) breeds. Pet Detection works by matching various dog or cat data of facial parts with patterns to detect the dog or cat being photographed. Enjoy easy upload of pictures and video to the Web Easy Web Upload Fujifilm has also introduced a new Facebook/YouTube Automatic Upload feature which is perfectly suited for consumers who want to share their pictures and videos more easily. Users can mark their favorite images and videos for Facebook or YouTube upload so they are all ready to go when they next connect to their computer. No more time is wasted sorting through pictures on the computer--just connect to MyFinePix Studio (supplied with the camera) and all marked images and videos will upload directly to the respective site at the press of a button. Additional FeaturesEXR Technology: Prized for bringing a new level of image quality to the consumer compact market, Fujifilm's EXR technology has the unique ability to switch its behavior depending on the shooting conditions. The FinePix Z700EXR can be left on EXR Auto Mode and the camera will do all the hard work for you, or alternatively, you can manually select the EXR Priority mode for high resolution (HR), dynamic range (DR) or high sensitivity and low noise (SN). Touch Shot: Provides the ability for one touch focus and shooting for easy photo taking. After the user taps the focal point of choice for the shooting scene on the LCD display, the camera automatically sets the appropriate focus and functions, and then releases the shutter for optimal one touch picture taking. Automatic Scene Recognition: 'SR Auto Mode' intelligently detects the scene type you are shooting and optimizes the camera's focus, exposure and white balance, so whether you're photographing flowers or a holiday landscape, you will get flawless photos at the press of a button. Dual Image Stabilization: Long-zoom cameras need stabilization more than any other compact, with handshake and subject movement a particular problem in low light at telephoto range. The FinePix Z700EXR reduces blur to a minimum by deploying Picture Stabilization to automatically increase shutter speeds to freeze action, and mechanical CCD Sensor Shift Stabilization to counteract the problems of handshake. By cleverly combining these two, blur is reduced to an absolute minimum. 'Super Intelligent' Flash: The FinePix Z700EXR offers a flash control system which efficiently controls the level of flash for a given exposure to produce beautifully balanced flash illumination across the foreground and background. Gone are the ugly washout shots where the subject is blasted with light and the background dark and unexposed. Super Intelligent Flash is most useful in macro photography where the contrast between subject and background can be especially challenging, but is also effective for night and backlit photography. Face Detection and Automatic Red-eye Removal: To provide perfectly exposed and focused portrait shots, the FinePix Z700EXR is fitted with Fujifilm's latest Face Detection technology which is able to track up to 10 faces simultaneously, at almost any angle to the camera. The system instantly corrects red-eye and then saves both the original and the corrected image file automatically. Dual Image Stabilization in action.

Fujifilm FinePix Z700EXR 12 MP Super CCD EXR Digital Camera with 5x Optical Zoom and 3.5-Inch Touch-Screen LCD (Silver)
- I bought the Fujiflim FinePix Z700EXR for my Hubby as a gift....he wanted a light pocket size camera that was easy to use. I choose the Z700EXR for all the features at a very good price. I have always used top the line Sony Cyber-shot digital point & shoot cameras in the past and was very surprised to find that the Z700EXR photos are on the same par as my Sony\'s.At first I was not happy with the fact that the EXR auto mode reduces the megapixels by half, but after using that setting and then editing the shot in the camera to S (3mp) the photo was still sharp and clear, good for small prints. Love the touch screen, the natural plus flash dual mode, ease of use and the size. Although the video is of good quality it is not as great as my Sony\'s but we do not buy a ditigal camera for that purpose. All features & modes are self explainatory and not difficult to understand.Oh yes, Hubby is very happy with the Z700EXR also....it fits in his pocket, is easy to use and takes great photos.
- This camera is easy for both my wife and me to use. It takes good photos, has a lot of options if you want to go off the auto settings, and slips into your bag or pocket easy enough.The one thing I like the most is that the battery is rechargeable. The money saved on buying batteries alone make this a good choice. I think it\'s a good idea to buy an extra battery to keep with the camera to swap if it gets low, but we haven\'t really had that problem yet. We\'ve taken photos at a birthday party, a wedding, and some at home. We just charge the battery before we go to an event, and it seems to last long enough to get through it without any problems.If you take a lot more photos than \"average\" just make sure to have that extra battery on hand.
- It is small and fits easily into my pocket and my purse. I bought it to use for an outdoors job I had. I had a big camera and carried my heavy case with extra lenses which was difficult for climbing. This little camera takes great pictures and is very easy to use.
- After seeing great reviews we were really disappointed with this camera. I\'m not sure how there aren\'t many other complaints about the camera\'s poor picture quality. I\'ve tried several modes and different lighting and haven\'t had very much luck. Even on a beautiful day with great lighting, I still had pictures look blurry or grainy. I take pictures of my kids all the time and have used several different digital cameras. None have ever taken pictures this terrible.
- Having owned 3 different models of the Z-Series Fuji camera, I feel so fortunate to be able to review this top-of-the-line Z700 EXR. I\'m a camera buff; I have purchased ten Fuji\'s since 2003 and have never been let down by any of them. (My oldest, a 2MP A205, still works).I love the Z700\'s metal construction. I have the red, it\'s a true red with no pink tones, so it should appeal to either gender. The tripod mount is located center bottom, so you can use a mini-tripod without it tipping over. I\'m fairly certain the silver parts are plastic, but the main camera body is metal.What\'s in the box? The camera, rechargeable lithium-ion battery, battery charger, USB cable, software CD, basic instruction manual and hand strap. The manual is 23 pages in the English version, and also comes with French and Spanish manuals. The full manual is on the CD.The lens is protected by a sliding cover which also powers the camera on and off. The lens (5X optical) zooms in and out INSIDE the camera, so you don\'t have to be as careful when you handle it. Unless you drop the camera you probably won\'t get a zoom error that commonly happens with cameras where the lens protrudes outward when powered up and you accidentally bump it into something.One thing I like better about this Z700 than some of the older Z series is the USB connector is not located inside the battery compartment, it\'s on the side of the camera, behind a door. The battery compartment door (on the bottom) appears to be well-made.On previous Z cameras the buttons were too close and it was easy to press the incorrect one. I don\'t have that problem here as everything is done by touch-screen. At the same time I\'m a little skeptical that the screen will work years from now. It\'s a whopping big 3.5 inches, biggest I\'ve seen so far, but it has to be large due to the \"buttons\" being on the LCD. In any event, once you get used to using it, all the symbols for the functions look similar to what you\'d see on a conventional digital camera. A light touch is all that is needed to choose your settings.The default is the EXR Auto mode - this is similar as the SR Auto (scene recognition) mode on less expensive Fuji\'s. The sensor is supposed to discern what you are taking a picture of: Portrait, Landscape, Night, Macro, Backlit Portrait, or Night Portrait. In addition to choosing the scene, it also decides which EXR mode to use automatically. Sometimes the pictures turn out better if I choose the mode myself instead of letting the camera do it automatically. Just tap over to either of the 3 EXR shooting modes: HR, SN, or DR, because the camera doesn\'t always choose the correct scene if used in EXR AUTO (it messes up approximately 5% of the time, not that big a deal, but still....). I haven\'t been lucky with the SN setting - so far SN has resulted in grainy pictures, I guess practice makes perfect with this setting. (HR is high resolution, SN stands for sensitivity/low noise, and DR stands for dynamic range).Recovery time after taking a picture without using the flash was under a second; recovery time between pictures with the flash firing was under 2 seconds before the camera was ready to take another shot...this was faster than other cameras I\'ve used recently. Recovery time also depends on the class of your SD card.This camera has OPTICAL Image Stabilization, accomplished by CCD sensor-shift technology. As far as manual settings, the settings are: ISO, white balance, exposure compensation, size, quality (normal/fine), D-range, and film simulation.So far I\'ve shot over 100 pictures and some short movies and the battery is still fully charged. The charger is included and you can fully charge the battery in a little over an hour. I prefer lithium batteries over AA\'s as they make the camera lighter in weight. You just have to plan ahead in case you are going somewhere so you have a fully charged battery, or buy a spare. Speaking of camera weight, the Z700 is slightly heavier than other compact cameras, due to it being metal.Being a pet owner, my favorite feature is the Pet Recognition. It can recognize the facial features of many dog and cat breeds to optimize the focus. My cats are mixed breeds and they were recognized too. However, it will not recognize Persians with smooshed-up faces. I\'ve noticed that when used in the cat (or dog) mode, the camera tends to focus on the face, and not the rest of the body. Works better as a \"portrait\" shot. If I\'m photographing the entire body, it works better on EXR Auto.There are two movie selections - HD and 640 in the AVI format. The HD video quality is better than my Flip Mino HD camcorder. Optical zoom needs to be set before recording starts, it cannot be changed after the button is pushed. Focus is also set when recording begins, but exposure and white balance are constantly adjusting during the recording.Playing movies on your TV requires an optional A/V cable. Playing HD movies requires an optional HDMI cable. There is also a Model HDP-L1 player available on Fujifilm\'s web site, which includes an HD card reader and a remote. Since I don\'t have an HDTV, I didn\'t purchase this so I can\'t comment on it.This camera comes with Fuji photo editing software (not a favorite of mine). It\'s compatible with Windows 7, Vista, XP and Mac. The software is not as good as Picasa, so I don\'t use it. I never edit my photos while in the camera, it\'s easier to use the computer for this.This camera has 30 MB of internal memory, so pick up an SD card with a minimum Class 4 speed.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>THINGS I DON\'T LIKE:1. The screen shows fingerprints so I\'m constantly wiping it off with a cloth. I hate dirty screens!2. One thing I did not expect is that the touchscreen (and the entire camera) gets very warm if you have it turned on for an extended period of time - 10 minutes or so is all it took for mine to heat up - which wouldn\'t be an unusually long period of time if you are taking lots of pictures. I am not sure if the camera could overheat, but it\'s something to keep in mind.3. Due to practically the entire back of the camera being a touch-screen, there\'s not much area to grasp the camera. I find myself carefully holding the top and bottom. And I ruined a lot of pictures in the beginning with my fingers getting in the way of the lens.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>WHO WOULD I RECOMMEND THIS CAMERA FOR? Not a young child because of the touch-screen - easily broken and this camera isn\'t cheap. Not for grandma or grandpa either unless they are somewhat comfortable with digital cameras already. For everyone else: Go for it! It\'s a cool-looking camera that takes really great pictures. I would definitely choose another Fuji with the Super CCD EXR. Would I buy another touch-screen? I\'m not sure at this point. It will depend on how long this one lasts before it gives me trouble. I hope it never does. To be honest, I didn\'t much care for the touch-screen at first, but it\'s growing on me.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>If you need a camera case, this one is perfect for the Z700EXR Lowepro Volta 20 Camera Case (Black) and it has enough room to carry an extra battery and SD card.
