Popular Science Award for Fujifilm FinePix camera : Fujifilm USA, Inc. is pleased to announce that Popular Science has selected the Fujifilm FinePix F50fd digital camera as the recipient of a 2007 Best of What’s New award in the Gadget category. The editors of Popular Science singled out the FinePix F50fd as “the first camera that can detect faces -to optimize focus, exposure and color-even if people are turned to the side or looking up or down.” Fujifilm’s proprietary Face Detection 2.0 debuted on the F50fd and includes a new Automatic Red-Eye Removal feature that automatically corrects red-eye directly after the shot is taken and then saves both the original and the corrected image file.
