Once in a while a camera manufacturer will come up with an idea that’s so clever that you can’t help wondering why nobody thought of it before. Many people now have widescreen televisions, and the advantages of the 16:9 format are well known, so perhaps it was only a matter of time before someone put a widescreen LCD monitor on the back of a digital camera. Fujifilm has done this with the FujiFilm FinePix F810 and it works a treat.

The Fujifilm FinePix F810 is a stylishly designed compact digital camera that uses a refined version of Fujifilm’s Super CCD HR sensor. Previously seen on cameras like the FinePix F610 and FinePix S7000 Zoom, the HR sensor on the Fujifilm FinePix F810 supposedly allows you to make larger prints than conventional CCD sensors, as well as reproducing colour more accurately and improving the camera’s ability in low-light situations. In addition to the new Super CCD HR sensor, Fujifilm have added another defining feature to the FinePix F810 in the shape of a widescreen (16:9) feature that allows images and movies to be easily viewed on a widescreen television. Other standout features on the Fujifilm FinePix F810 include a 4x optical zoom lens equivalent to 32.5mm - 130mm on a 35mm camera, full range of exposure controls, ISO 80-800 settings and a RAW file format for unprocessed image saving.

There are three things that are part of the first impression made by the FujiFilm FinePix F810: its elongated shape, its wide screen LCD, and the speed at which it is ready to shoot after being turned on (around 1 second). The body of the F810, more than twice as long as it is high, is covered entirely in silver metal, giving it a solid feel and a substantial weight. The wide 2.1 inch LCD monitor occupies most of the camera’s back, is composed of 173,000 pixels and has a 16:9 aspect ratio, the same as a high-definition television.
