(Monday, September 10, 2001 - 23:15 EDT)FinePix 2800 Zoom to be announced tomorrow morning will feature point'n'shoot design with a 6x optical zoom and electronic viewfinder...
Some 5 1/2 hours or more (we're not sure how long actually, we only just saw it) before our NDA time of 3AM Eastern time tomorrow, we just spotted that the folks at the Digital Photography Review have posted details on Fuji's latest digicam... The FujiFilm FinePix 2800 Zoom features a compact chassis, 6x optical zoom, and 2.11 megapixel image sensor in a point'n'shoot design with an electronic viewfinder.
Full specifications for the FujiFilm FinePix 2800 Zoom will be published once we reach our NDA time of 3AM Eastern time tomorrow morning - this will include details not already available, such as US pricing and availability information, the full US press release, and specs details which haven't already been disclosed. In the meantime, specifications highlights which are now publically available elsewhere follow (our apologies for a somewhat messy item, but when we've already prepared our coverage and it is then posted ahead of our NDA elsewhere, we have to respect our NDA and remove anything that hasn't been disclosed):
Has exposure compensation function (range/steps unspecified). Can function as a tethered USB webcam for video conferencing. Voice annotation feature allows 30 seconds audio per image. Complies with USB 1.1.Comes bundled with 16MB SmartMedia card.
