Fujifilm FinePix J250

The Fujifilm FinePix J250 is a super stylish and compact digital camera released in March of 2009. An upgrade from the FinePix J20, the Fujifilm FinePix J250 offers a larger 3” LCD and 5x optical zoom Fujinon lens with a 10.0 megapixels resolution. Furthermore, the J250 utilizes both high sensitivity and CCD Shift Image Stabilization to eliminate blurred photos by freezing action and minimizing the effects of a shaking camera. In fact, the ISO3200 (versus ISO1600) sensitivity allows photos to appear more natural and true to live even with limited lighting. Like its predecessor, the J250 also features an ‘evolved’ 6-scene Scene Recognition Auto feature and Face Detection feature that work together to detect and optimize faces and scenes. The J250 also includes 640x480 moving recording at 30 fps with monaural sound, a Red-Eye Removal function, and over 15 versatile shooting modes. Available in black, the Fujifilm FinePix J250 retails for $199.99 and comes with a 1 year limited warranty.
