    The Fuji FinePix 3800 expands your digital photography horizons with a range of advanced options, including manual mode with aperture control and exposure compensation. It features 3-megapixel resolution, 6x optical zoom, and movie mode. The FinePix 3800 is also one of the first digital cameras to utilize the tiny XD memory card.

    Optics and Resolution
    Featuring a CCD sensor with 3.24 million effective pixels, the FinePix 3800 delivers a wide range of detail and color (with images up to 2,048 x 1,536 pixels) and prints up to 11 by 14 inches. The FinePix 3800 features a fast f/2.8 Fujinon lens with a 6x optical zoom and a variable digital zoom: 3.2x (at the 640 x 480 setting) or 1.6x (at the 1,280 x 960 setting). Its lens focal length is equivalent to 38-114mm on a 35mm camera.

    Storage and Transfer
    The FinePix 3800 is one of the first digital cameras to be compatible with the new XD memory card. Comparable in size to a penny and weighing less than one-tenth of an ounce, the new XD memory card is not only the smallest storage medium, it also uses less power for better battery performance and has faster data transfer rates than other memory cards. The included 16 MB XD card will store approximately 12 images at fine mode and 26 images at normal mode.

    To transfer images to your computer, simply attach the included USB cable between your PC and your camera--your computer should automatically recognize the camera and let you move the pictures to your hard drive.

    Movie Mode
    In movie mode, the FinePix 3800 produces digital videos (with sound) in QVGA (320 x 240) format for movies approximately 60 seconds in length at 10 frames per second. The limited resolution of your movies guarantees that this feature won't replace your camcorder, but it's perfect for when you just want to capture a quick movie and e-mail it to a friend or relative.

    More Features

    • 1.8-inch LCD monitor
    • White balance: auto, plus six selectable positions in manual mode
    • Flash modes: auto, red-eye reduction, forced flash, suppressed flash, and slow synchro
    • Sensitivity: ISO 100 equivalent
    • Shutter speed: 3 to 1/1,500 second
    • Voice memo: up to 30 seconds

      Power
      The FinePix 3800 is powered by four AA batteries (alkalines are included). We recommend getting a set or two of rechargeable nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries and a charger. A digital camera will kill a set of alkaline batteries extremely quickly, especially if you're using the camera's LCD display, so they aren't recommended except in a pinch.

      Size
      The FinePix 3800 measures at 3.9 by 3.0 by 2.7 inches and 10 ounces.

      Contents
      This package includes the FinePix 3800 digital camera, a 16 MB XD memory card, four AA alkaline batteries, a USB cable, a shoulder strap, an adapter ring, a lens cap, and a CD-ROM with software and USB drivers for Windows and Mac.

    I researched digital cameras for a few months before choosing this model. The things that were most important to me were picture quality, grip/handling comfort, and audio/video capabilities. I felt good that Consumer Reports rated the picture quality as very good for this camera. This is our first digital camera. For me, this model was head and shoulders more comfortable to hold onto than any other camera I tried out. I found so many of the smaller cameras very uncomfortable to hold-too thin, slippery, or poorly balanced. I also liked the larger LCD screen, the matte black border around the screen (no glare), and the protective cover over the LCD screen surface. One reviewer of this camera highlighted the importance of the 6x optical zoom. I can say with experience that this is definitely something to NOT OVERLOOK when comparing other models. The zoom is indeed awesome and it will enable you to take pictures that you would otherwise miss or end up with a lousy miniture distance shot. I am so not techno savvy, but I've had no problems learning how to use this cameras many features with just skimming through the manual. The XD card is the bomb. So quick and efficient, very easy to use, and the read/write capability is amazing! The video with audio works well and will be awesome to have when I don't have our digital camcorder with us. I don't want to miss any cute kid moments. I find that in bright outdoor shooting the LCD screen looks dim, but don't fret. I was concerned about the LCD screen brightness because of other reviews, but I needn't be. The screen is plenty visible in any light to frame your shot. You will be shocked and amazed at the brightness and clarity of your actual shots regardless of the view via the LCD screen. You can still make out your subjects fine and the photos taken will have you shaking your head in utter disbelief. I even took pictures looking into our bathroom at night with just the night light (the room was very, very dark-no flash used). The pictures I took were completly focused and the coloring was very accurate. I truly had no difficulty viewing/focusing via the LCD screen in this very low light circumstance. The photos I've taken (about 250 or so) have blown me away. My pictures look three dimensional!! I am absolutely floored at the quality and the richness in every regard. I've made one 8x10 from a 3 "Normal" MG shot and the photograph was gorgeous. It looked better than shots I've taken with 35mm cameras. I take at least 24-48 photos a month on average-most of my kids. I've taken photos of my kids swinging on the playground from quite a distance using the full 6x zoom and they have come out razor sharp! I decided to give digital a try because of all the "no good" shots I was consistently paying for. It is awesome to have instant gratification of picture review and the ability to only print shots which are "keepers". I am certain this will be a cost saver in developing fees. One last note, I also had concern about the lens cap. Some people said it doesn't stay on. I have found this to be not the case whatsoever. The lens cap locks on just like my SLR. You have to depress two areas on the cap simultaneously to remove it. Once again, no problems and only the best possible experiences to report. I wasted time researching so dilegently and worrying so over a few "issues of concern" which have turned out to be no issue at all!

    I have three ditigal cameras (all Fuji), and I've owned this camera for a few months now. I can say without hesitation, that when taking pictures out of doors it's really a very good camera. If it has any fault at all it's the flash. There have been times when it doesn't fire properly, but I do mostly outdoor photography so the flash hasn't been that big of a problem. If you want to see just how good a picture it does take you can see one of my pictures in the November 2003 issue of the magazine "Digital Photographer" (page 52). I took several pictures that day and they all came out great! The camera only comes with a 16MB memory card, so you'll need to invest in a larger card. Would I recommend this camera? You bet. I even bought one for my wife. She wanted something simple to operate and yet she wanted a camera that gives good, clear photos. This camera fills the bill. If you take a lot of indoor pictures, this may not be the one you want.

    I bought this camera approximately 18 months ago and have been totally and completely satisified with its performance and picture quality. This is my first digital camera. When I was looking to dive into the digital world, I wanted a camera that would give me all of the features my SLR camera had (zoom, picture quality, etc.). I absolutely cannot say enough good things about my Fuji. It takes great pictures with little or no effort on my part. The battery life is long; consumption is at a minimum. I am able to take close to 100 pictures before I need to change batteries. I keep two sets of rechargables. One in the camera and one fully charged in the bag. So all I have to do is switch them out when necessary. I immediately bought additional XD cards. With the 128mb card, at normal resolution, you can store just over 200 pictures. I love to take pictures... My idea is take 10 pics and you'll probably get at least one really good one. My husband used to cringe at the sound of each picture, thinking about costly film developing. Now, he doesn't care. I take 10 pics, and delete nine. Only print out the one that is good. :-) The long and short of it is, I love this camera. It is a good purchase and well worth the money if you are looking to transition over from film to digital without giving up any features.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Nice photos but unreliable equipment
    Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2005

    It was a nice camera until it stopped working in the first week of my three week Paris, France trip. It was working fine, I took couple of pictures and turned it off and then it never turned back on. Also from other reviews you will see the same engineering mistake. There is a small screw coming out and shorting the circuits and power. I called Fuji, they told me to send it to a repair center, and the cost of repair is same as the camera itself now, I won't get it fixed or buy any other Fuji product again. This is a common problem that they had with their design in this particular model and they should fix it with no cost at me. If a car has such a common problem, they recall it and fix the problem for you with no cost but for cameras you pay 400 dollars (it is some money, maybe not same as cars but why do we measure respect with money) and they don't respect their customers, then ok, they won't have loyal customers either. NEVER TRUST FUJI, go buy a better camera from sony or canon.

    Very disappointed. Not in like new condition. Did come with an XD card - but no cable. Strap was so dirty I had to take it off and put on one of my own. Grime and dirt around buttons and lens - not really sure it is working correctly - seemed to be making some unusual noise. I have given it to a friend that wanted it so badly - otherwise I would have tried to send it back. I hate to leave a less than positive review - but wanted to ensure others knew of my experience.
