Fujifilm is pleased to announce the new FinePix S5700, a refinement of its predecessor, the FinePix S5600. The modifications to the FinePix S5700 mean it is easier to use than anything that has gone before.
It's a faithful companion for every event, from nights out, the kids' school play or sports day, right through to countryside walks and family holidays. It's the ultimate camera for every occasion and perfect for users who always want a camera to hand, but prefer to get creative, not technical, with their photography.

 

 

This specially-designed Fujinon optic gives you a zoom range of 38 mm to 380 mm, or 10 times magnification, meaning its perfect for candid shots of friends at distance, or shots of the kids playing football.

 

 

The lens is tuned to give great macro results with a closest focussing range of 1 cm. It's ideal for close-up shots of flowers, insects, coins, jewellery, or anything that needs that extra bit of magnification.

 

 

One of the problems of long zoom cameras is blur because of the poor sensitivity of the sensor and lack of light down the lens tube. The S5700 solves this with Fuji's Picture Stabilisation mode, which increases the ISO automatically up to 1600, giving crisp, sharp results every time by automatically increasing the shutter speed when light is scarce.

 

 

The S5700 delivers even higher resolution with a 7.1m pixel sensor, giving you files of 3072 x 2304 pixels that can be printed at A4 or much larger.

 

 

Probably the biggest improvement of the S5700 on previous models is the LCD, which is a sizeable 2.5" and an excellent resolution of 230,000 pixels, meaning you can playback your images to your friends in gloriously detailed Fujicolor.

 

 

The S5700 offers an excellent recording resolution of 640 x 480 at 30 frames per second, meaning it can act as a first-class camcorder as well as a camera.

Refinements of the S5700 on previous models mean that it can zoom, expose and focus as you shoot, giving you up to 35 minutes movie on a 2 GB card - at almost indistinguishable quality from expensive digital camcorders.

The S5700 is also fitted with an Electronic Image Stabiliser, which gives stable movie clips even at long zoom telephoto.

 

 

The S5700 features an xD/SD compatible slot, allowing the use of either xD or SD cards.
