Fujiflm has entered the big zoom brigade with a camera designed to compete with the Olympus SP-550UZ and the new Pansaonic FZ18. With an 18x zoom, 8 MegaPpixel sensor and - for the first time in a Fujifilm bridge camera - image stabilization (CCD-shift), the new Fujifilm FinePix S8000fd is Fujifilm's most ambitious S series yet. The cameras other features of note include face detection, 15fps shooting and sensitivity settings of up to ISO 6400. Like most recent Fujifilm FinePix digital cameras the new S8000fd will take both xD and SD/SDHC memory cards.
