Fujifilm FinePix A800 - Intelligent Flash
The FinePix A800 features Fujifilm’s “Intelligent Flash” technology, which measures the size and position of the subject and sets flash power output and exposure level accordingly. Intelligent Flash delivers natural looking images without the ‘washed out’ effect that can be the result of traditional on-camera flash. Several shooting modes will help users to take the best pictures in every situation. For example, “Baby mode” reproduces skin tones accurately and “Picture Stabilization mode” enables the camera to enhance its shutter speed for with less blur photos. The FinePix A800 features 14 scene position modes.

The Fujifilm A800 features a newly designed mode dial, enabling users to quickly select scene position modes with their thumb. Framing photographs is easy with a 2.5” LCD monitor with an anti-reflective coating to prevent glare when shooting in daylight.
