Fuji Finepix Real 3D Tested, Declared “Coolest Camera Of The Year”

5:56AM John Herrman | Just before everyone’s was about to get tired of just talking about how weird-looking Fuji’s grinfaced, two-eyed 3D point-and-shoot is, some news: It does work, and it’s extremely cool. This according to the Brits at Stuff, who’ve actually got one. More »

Fujifilm Busts Out Five New Cameras, Including A Prosumer Faux-DSLR

3:00PM Dan Nosowitz | Fujifilm today announced five new cameras at an array of prices, ranging from the $US90, 10MP A170 to the “prosumer” DSLR-lite FinePix S200EXR (pictured) at $US600. It’s a pretty solid lineup of low- to mid-end shooters. More »

Fuji’s 3D Point-and-Shoot Due In Sept For $US600, Features Smiley Face

8:49PM John Herrman | No, seriously, once you notice this Fuji’s lopsided, goofy grin, you just can’t unsee it. It beats the concept version’s terrifying death stare, I guess. Anyway: the dual-lensed FinePix Real 3D will land stateside in September, for $US600. Sort of. More »

Fujifilm’s New FinePix Z30 Digial Camera Looks Like Candy…

1:00PM Nick Broughall | Maybe it’s just because it’s the most striking shade of purple I’ve ever seen on a gadget, or maybe it’s just that I haven’t eaten anything yet today, but the Finepix Z30 digital camera from Fujifilm looks good enough to eat. Or at least lick. More »

Fujifilm Z33WP Waterproof Camera Is Like a Metal Jolly Rancher That Takes Pictures

6:23PM Matt Buchanan | Spec-wise, there’s nothing truly spectacular (har har) about Fujifilm’s waterproof 10-megapixel Z33WP—which doesn’t even fully climb aboard the tough-cam bandwagon by promising shock or arctic defenses—but there’s one thing about it that I love.

Fujifilm Shows Off 3D Camera For Consumers

10:00AM Nick Broughall | Apparently, next year’s going to be the year of 3D entertainment. And even though there are heaps of different technologies out there to let you see images in 3D, there seems to be a bit of a lack of consumer cameras to let you take 3D images yourself. Fortunately, Fujifilm has announced their new FinePix Real 3D consumer camera at the recent 3DX expo in Singapore. The stereoscopic camera features two optical lenses, each with its own CCD, and a processor that syncs the two images to create a 3D image. On top of that, the screen on the camera is capable of showing 3D images without the stupid glasses, while a 3D printing solution will also be offered that allows you to view printed images in 3D from multiple angles. And if the idea of still 3D images des nothing for you, the FinePix Real 3D also lets you record 3D video. Of course, there’s no word on pricing or when it will be released yet, but we’ll keep you posted when we hear more from Fujifilm. [Giz3D] More »

Fuji’s 3D Camera System

3:36PM Brian Lam | Fuji announced a 3d digital imaging system that uses modern image processors to take images with similar quality found in modern cameras. The dual lens system can also be used for future applications including instantly stiched together panoramas from two simultaneous shots, or using one CCD to shoot video while the other shoots stills. (Things regular cameras can do now, with not much difficulty.) What’s interesting is that Fuji simultaneously developed a 3D imaging ecosystem including an 8.4 inch, 3D LCD display that needs no glasses and a 3D printer.

Fujifilm’s SuperCCD EXR Unveiled: Sensor Promises High Res, High Quality Imaging

1:15AM Kit Eaton | Fujifilm’s “super ccd” technology’s been about for quite a while, but with the new Super CCD EXR it looks like the main focus is on improved image quality. It’s not going to signal an end to the stupid megapixel race, but the EXR sensor has a new mosaic colour filter arrangement, new pixel-binning method and totally new electronic charge control: these result in improved light sensitivity with lower noise as well as a wider dynamic range. These should make up for the image quality problems caused by the shrinkage of photo-diode sizes as megapixel count has gone up…but we’ll have to see some test shoots to see if the sensor lives up to its promise. Press release below. More »
