Using the zoom to reach virtually any of the major focal lengths, rather than having to change lenses and possibly see harmful dust enter the camera, not to mention missing the shot. Also, the mirror-free design allows you to enjoy the added functionality of a movie mode, which is something that SLRs cannot offer.

Real Photo Technology
RPT is an umbrella term for the combination of cutting edge technologies such as Face Detection, Real Photo Processor and Fujinon lens, all optimised to work together to produce the most natural, beautiful results in any conditions.
Boasting a 12 megapixel CCD sensor, with a maximum sensitivity of ISO6400 the FinePix S2000HD delivers high image quality that promises sharper, more brilliant, high-resolution pictures whatever the scene.
You'll see the benefits in every image you capture.

Never a blurred moment
The FinePix S2500HD features Fujifilm's Dual Image Stabilisation mode, which combines a mechanically stabilised Super CCD sensor with high ISO sensitivities, (up to ISO 6400), for total anti-blur protection.

The combination of these technologies reduces the blurring effect of both hand-shake and subject movement even further to provide the highest quality digital pictures yet, with sharp, clean and clear results no matter what the shooting conditions.

Face Detection
World famous Face Detection Technology has enabled a number of advanced features that will excite both novice and more experienced photographers and make getting perfect portraits easier than ever.
Face Detection operates by identifying and prioritising up to 10 faces in a frame and then adjusting the focus and exposure accordingly to ensure the sharpness and clarity of human subjects in the picture, regardless of background.

Versatile Shooting Modes
Amongst many other attributes the FinePix S2500HD features a Super Macro Mode, Instant Zoom, and High Speed Continuous Shooting.
Super Macro Mode allows you to capture impressive full frame close ups within 1cm, (0.4 inch) of your subject.

Instant Zoom allows you to follow a moving subject in wide view, bringing you an additional 1.4x or 2x digital zoom impact at the single press of a button. Each frame can be saved to your memory card.

Continuous Shooting modes allows you to capture all the action, up to 8 frames per second in a burst, effective for any photographer focusing their attention on fast moving subjects.
