Fujifilm FinePix F40fd/F47fd
The Fujifilm FinePix F40fd (aka Fujifilm FinePix F45fd) was the successor to the Fuji FinePix F20. Like the F20 its ISO was limited to 2000 and manual controls were limited. More often it is compared with the FinePix F31fd which it replaced in the market. In comparison, the F40fd generally has superior image quality up to ISO400, noiser but more detailed images at ISO 800, and less detailed and noiser images at ISO 1600. The F40fd employees less noise reduction than some previous F series cameras; this makes images look poor when viewed at 100% but retains more overall detail in practical usage.
