New S700, A900 & A820 Digital Cameras From FujiFilm

Cameras, cameras, cameras as far as the eye can see! FujiFilm has now joined the fray, announcing three new digital camera models. The SLR-styled FinePix S700 features a 7.1MP CCD sensor, 10x Fujinon optical zoom lens with an focal range of 38-380mm (35mm equivalent), 2.5-inch LCD screen, and is expected to retail for around $250 when it becomes available next month. The camera also includes Picture Stabilization mode, ISO sensitivity up to ISO 1600, a xD/SD/SD-HC compatible slot for media, and accepts four AA batteries.

Two point-and-shoot models will also be available in May from FujiFilm. The FinePix A900 and the A820 both feature a 4x Fujinon optical zoom lens with a 35mm focal range equivalent of 39-156mm, sensitivity range of up to ISO 800, and a 2.5-inch LCD screen. While the A900 sports a 9MP Super CCD sensor, the A820 features an 8MP sensor. Both cameras also include IrSimple Technology that allows a user to wirelessly transmit photos from the camera to IrSimple-enabled devices, such as PDAs, photo kiosks, and other cameras. xD/SD media cards are accepted and the cameras use two AA batteries. The A900 will retail for $199 and the A820 will be priced at $179. Images provided by FujiFilm.
