FujiFilm FinePix 30i - Manual (Page 3)

2.0 Million Effective Pixels
The FinePix 30i assures clear, natural color image quality using 2.0 million effec-
tive pixels. Detail remains crisp throughout your images even after enlargement to
6"
× 8" print size.
2.5✕ Digital Zoom
The FinePix A30i features a 2.5✕ digital zoom function (in 640 × 480 pixel mode),
bringing you closer to your subjects.
Easy-to-Use Design
Simply sliding open the stylish lens cover readies the cam-
era to take great-looking pictures. Just point the camera
and press the shutter. The FinePix 30i automatically con-
trols all parameters for shooting quality pictures; auto expo-
sure automatically selects the optimum aperture and shut-
ter speeds, while intelligent auto white balance adjusts for
the type of lighting to give you perfect colors each time. For
extremely close-up shots, the Macro Mode lets you move
in as close as 8cm (3.1 inch).
Enjoyable Playback Functions
The FinePix 30i’s 1.8-inch color LCD makes picture-taking
easier and more enjoyable, allowing you to view pictures or
movies immediately after taking them. The FinePix 30i
offers impressive image playback options including single
frame, 9 multi-frame and 5✕ zoom (max.).
Low Power Consumption
The FinePix 30i utilizes two Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride) AA
batteries. Reflecting a thorough reassessment of power con-
sumption efficiency, the FinePix 30i is capable of taking a maximum of 300 shots in standard
usage* or approx. 5,400 shots in succession** when the provided batteries are fully charged.
* When the LCD monitor is set to “Off”, taking shots in 1M mode at 30 sec. intervals, half of them with the flash set to “Off”.
** When shooting successively for 3 hours in 640
× 480 mode with the LCD monitor and flash set to “Off”.
Easy Connection with PCs
The USB connection and the included FinePixViewer
software make it easy to download picture, movie or
audio files to your PC. Connecting the camera to the PC
causes the software to automatically
start up. The FinePix Viewer also lets you connect
to Fujifilm’s Internet services, while the included
“PictureHello*” utility software turns the FinePix
30i into a Webcam.
* PictureHello can be used between certain types of FinePix cameras
with PC camera functions.
