Fujifilm's FinePix F440 Zoom and FinePix F450 Zoom: new standards in compact camera design
Four and five megapixel resolution and 3.4x optical zoom set a new standard in ultra-compact housing
Fujifilm today announced the FinePix F440 Zoom and FinePix F450 Zoom: five and four megapixel resolutions, with a 3.4 times optical zoom, two inch LCD screen, and housed in a design so small that it can be hidden behind a single Post-It® Note.
Borrowing the good looks of their predecessors - the popular FinePix F410 and F420 Zoom - the trim figures of these new models are possible thanks to a newly developed lens structure. The clever lens design makes these cameras' enviable vital statistics achievable (W 74.5 x H 62.3 x D 21.3 mm and a body weight of just 150g).
Although weighing no more than a mobile handset, the FinePix F440 Zoom and FinePix F450 Zoom are big where it counts - boasting 2" LCD screens, fast F2.8 lenses and enough megapixels to allow images to be printed as enlargements without loss of quality.
Furthermore, the brushed metal casing and eye-catching, cool, blue lights will please those who feel aesthetic appeal is as critical as image quality.
Not just a pretty face, the FinePix F440 Zoom and F450 Zoom are capable of ISO 80, enabling enhanced quality images in bright conditions.
A new lithium rechargeable battery gives the cameras stamina, while technology advancements mean their power consumption has been reduced even further. Both models come complete with a PictureCradle, making recharging and downloading both easy and convenient. PictBridge(tm) compatibility also allows printing at home without the need for a PC or Mac.

Adrian Clarke, Fujifilm's Director of Consumer Products, said, "Despite their non-professional positioning, ultra-compacts are where some of the most interesting technological advancements are being made in digital photography. We're pleased to be the first to offer a lens that goes all the way to 130mm and a 2" LCD in a body so small."
