Amazon.com Product Description
Many of the features on the Fujifilm FinePix 4800 are nearly identical to those of the FinePix 4700. However, the Finepix 4800 boasts an artfully stylish body designed by F.A. Porsche. The 4800 also comes with a handy USB docking cradle that recharges the included lithium-ion battery and remains connected to your computer, similar to a USB card reader. The cradle allows you to easily transfer your images and even tilts for use as a PC cam.

According to Fuji, the 2.4-megapixel Super CCD sensor inside the FinePix 4800 is able to "produce a maximum image file size of 4.3 megapixels." This means it captures high quality shots at up to 2,400 x 1,800 resolution. With the 3x optical zoom capability (along with 4.4x digital zoom), it also provides a wide range of shooting options, from telephoto to wide angle, with coverage equivalent to a 36-108mm range in a 35mm camera.

Start-up takes only two seconds, and the pause between single-frame shots can be as brief as a second. In continuous shooting mode, you can shoot every 0.2 seconds. A motion-picture recording mode lets you record and play back 320 x 240 pixel video at 10 frames per second in JPEG format for up to 160 seconds with sound. The FinePix 4800 allows you to switch between auto and manual focus. It has a black and white mode, voice-recording modes for picture annotations or voice memos, a 2-inch LCD color monitor, supports SmartMedia cards, and offers 3 to 1/2,000 shutter speeds.

The Fuji FinePix 4800 comes with a 16 MB SmartMedia card, hand strap, rechargeable lithium-ion battery, USB HotSync cradle, USB cable, audio-video cable, and CD-ROM software.

4 out of 5 stars Over a year old and still going.......2003-02-06

PROS:
This camera has worked as anticipated. With all the buttons and the sliding lens cover, the manual does note that it is extremely sensitive to sand--not a beach camera.

The original battery is still working. I ordered a second one from [store] and it is already weaker than the original. Get original batteries, even if they cost more.

The compact size is definitely a plus. Less conspicuous and it will even fit in a shirt pocket. (a little tightly)

I think it's been dropped a few times with no noticable decrease in performance.

I have a 64Mb and 128Mb in addition to the 16Mb card that was included with the camera and haven't run out of disk space on an outing yet--even on highest resolution.

CONS:
Due to the small lens size, pictures taken at closer ranges (4 feet or less) can be very slightly bowed, or bulge in the middle, as noted when a photo has lots of horizontal lines. This can distort portraits.

Wish I could get closer to images

5 out of 5 stars Great quality pictures.......2002-10-12

I love this camera. I purchased it about a year ago, and it takes amazing high quality pictures. I get them printed out online, and nobody can tell whether they are digital pictures or not!

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Camera!.......2002-10-12

I have found the FinePix 4800 to be a great deal for the money. I think the 4.3 Megapixel mode is useful, as for certain images, it does much to make up for the fact that JPEG compression loses image fidelity. In fact, based on my tests imaging point soures of light and sharp edges, the 4.3 megapixel mode is no worse than any other mode, provided the image is not underexposed or even the slightest bit out of focus. I think the combination of the software Fuji uses, and the fact that some detail is lost in any JPEG image contribute to this. So for that occasional shot that you might want to blow up (or that you might want to enlarge a part of later, but don't want risk missing the shot with a lower megapixel, narrow field-of-view mode), 4.3 megapixel mode has its uses.
My only complaint is the shape. It is a bit akward to hold. If its length and width were inverted it would be easier.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome.......2002-10-02

Well, I purchased this camera while stationed in Kuwait, used it over there, and back in the states. Contrary to some peoples beliefs, this camera is the best camera I have had my grubby little paws on ever. Everything about this camera is great. The instruction manual is mildly lengthy, but if you want to use the camera at its fullest potential, reading it is a must. Great picture quality. I have printed out 8 x 10's and they look incredible, this also being used with a good printer. Outdoor shots, indoor shots, close up shots, backlighting; this camera does it all. It does seem to become mildly testy though when there is a low light situation and you aren't using a flash. It is very sensitive to movement then and 9 times out of 10 your picture will not come out probably as clear as you would like, which is why you are supposed to use the flash. Overall, great camera, and definitely worth the cash tossed down to acquire it.

5 out of 5 stars This is my second Fujifilm Digital camera.......2002-04-21

My first digital camera was of similar design (the Fujifilm MX 1700) and I wanted some more megapixels so I could print my better shots. I like the feeling of a heavy camera, so i once again turned to Fuji for my upgrade. They still make their camera's with a metal body, instead of cheap, flimsy plastic.

Since this camera is designed a lot like the previous one, I had no problems getting used to it. Half an hour after taking it out of the box, I was taking pictures in macro mode of flowers in my garden.

My husband now has my old FujiFilm MX 1700 because it's a more simple camera, and I have the FujiFilm 4800 Zoom with all the goodies. I'm extremely pleased with the quality and design of these cameras, and I would recommend them to anyone.
