A world of shooting opportunitiesThe FinePix S8000fd's 18x zoom lens is ready for every possible photographic challenge thrown at it, from landscapes and interiors to wildlife and sports action. Covering a range equivalent to 27- 486mm on a 35mm camera, the FinePix S8000fd's zoom offers everything from true wide angle to extreme telephoto in a single compact unit. The wide angle is perfect for large group shots and sweeping holiday landscapes; the long telephoto lens is capable of picking out a single face on a distant stage or playing field, offering an unparalleled range of creative opportunities without the need for add-on lenses or adapters.
 Super sharp resultsPhotographs taken at very long telephoto settings – especially with a hand-held camera – present a real challenge and can often produce unsatisfactory results. The most common causes for lost shots are camera shake (which is magnified at longer focal lengths) and focus errors caused by the narrow depth of field. It can also be difficult to keep the camera steady enough to ensure the desired subject is in the centre of the frame when the shutter is pressed. The FinePix S8000fd uses a combination of advanced technologies to ensure perfect results even at the longest telephoto settings - no matter how challenging the shooting conditions. Compact light weightDespite it’s high-power 18x zoom lens, the FinePix S8000fd is designed to be compact and easy to carry. An ergonomic grip and rubber finger pad make it easy to hold the camera steady and operate with one hand, giving you the flexibility to point and shoot smoothly and effortlessly.  High resolution LCD screenThe bright LCD screen boasts a 230,000 pixel resolution, which has a reinforced glass coating for scratch-free durability. The Anti-glare coating on the surface also makes it easier to see the LCD screen in bright light so id ideal for outdoor shooting an viewing situation. In addition the FinePix S8000 gives you the option of framing the shots through a bright, clear 230,000-pixel viewfinder. This camera offers a refresh rate of 60 frames per second; images in the viewfinder appear smooth and natural  Flexible xD/SD compatibilityThe FinePix S8000fd features an xD/SD compatible slot, allowing the use of either xD Picture Card, SD or SDHC media to store and transfer your photos. This will give you the flexibility to buy the card you want, use cards from previous cameras, or choose the media that fits with your other desktop devices like laptops, PDAs or card readers.  Internal memoryThe FinePix S8000fd makes it possible for you to get that picture even if your memory card is full. The 58MB of internal memory built into this compact ensures that you will never have to miss that special shot. Think of it as your internal insurance policy for photo opportunities. With that said, the main storage for images on the S8000fd should be an additional xD card, which will allow you to accommodate almost as many images as you like.
 One set of batteries –up to 400 shotsAdvanced power management technology allows the FinePix S8000fd to shoot up to 400 pictures on a single set of four (optional) Ni-MH rechargeable batteries (200 shots using non-rechargeable Alkalines).

Seven, The Daily Telegraph - February 2008Can men derive comfort from the size of their optical zoom? The Fujifilm FinePix S8000fd has an 18x lens, which is a lot for a camera that might look like a SLR but isn't. It has eight megapixels of pin-point detail, wide-angle zoom lens and a maximum ISO sensitivity of 6400, which means detailed images can be taken in dimly lit places without the need for a flash." 
Computer Shopper - February 20084 stars "Fujifilm has produced a range of good SRL-styled ultra-zoom cameras over the past few years, and the FinePix S8000fd is its best yet. It's the first to include optical image stabilisation to counteract blur from camera shake." 
Computer Buyer - November 20074 stars - Top Value Buyer "Fujifilm's first superzoom with optical image stabilisation. They seem to have nailed it fist time, giving reliably blur-free photos where other cameras falter."
