Fujifilm S5 Pro digital SLR camera - Review
The Fujifilm S5 Pro upgrades the S3 model � there was no S4 � and is again aimed squarely at those who specialise in portraits and landscapes.
The re-designed Super CCD SR Pro sensor at the Fujifilm S5 Pro's heart boasts unique properties. The honeycomb layout is split into six million larger 'S' diodes, which capture most of the light, and a further six million 'R' diodes, which capture 'bright area' information � for example, fine detail on an all-white dress that would be in danger of 'burning out'.
You can also control dynamic range with six incremental settings, plus there are shooting modes that vividly ape the colour-rich qualities of Fuji roll film.
Among the Fujifilm S5 Pro's effective improvements is a new filter to reduce image noise in low light without flash, with light sensitivity up to ISO3200, plus an internal processor that now delivers more life-like colours. Making sure your subject is always sharp, no matter where in the frame it is, there are 11 autofocus points, and, like most DSLRs, you can shoot RAW files alongside JPEGs. It's hard to shoot a duff shot.

FUJIFILM FINEPIX F50fd DIGITAL CAMERA RECEIVES 2007 BEST OF WHAT'S NEW AWARD FROM POPULAR SCIENCE
The editors of Popular Science singled out the FinePix F50fd as "the first camera that can detect faces �to optimize focus, exposure and color� even if people are turned to the side or looking up or down." Fujifilm's proprietary Face Detection 2.0 debuted on the F50fd and includes a new Automatic Red-Eye Removal feature that automatically corrects red-eye directly after the shot is taken and then saves both the original and the corrected image file. The F50fd combines these features, along with Dual Image Stabilization and ISO settings of up to 6400, to form a compact powerhouse camera that makes "spontaneous shots look picture-perfect," according to Popular Science.
"For 20 years, Popular Science's Best of What's New awards honor the innovations that make a positive impact on life today and change our views of the future," says Mark Jannot, editor-in-chief, Popular Science. "PopSci's editors evaluate thousands of products each year to develop this thoughtful list, there's no higher accolade Popular Science can give."
Each year, the editors of Popular Science review thousands of products in search of the top 100 tech innovations of the year; breakthrough products and technologies that represent a significant leap in their categories. The winners � the Best of What's New � are awarded inclusion in the much-anticipated December issue of Popular Science, the most widely read issue of the year since the debut of Best of What's New in 1987.
"We are excited and proud to receive this honor from Popular Science," said Bill Drysdale, vice president and general manager, Electronic Imaging Products, FUJIFILM, U.S.A. "Their recognition of the technical innovations in our FinePix F50fd, further reinforces Fujifilm's culture of photography."
The Best of What's New awards are presented to 100 new products and technologies in 10 categories: Automotive, Aviation & Space, Computing, Engineering, Gadgets, Green Tech, Home Entertainment, Home Tech, Personal Health and Recreation.
