Fujifilm Fotonex 250ix Zoom APS Film Camera

With: Soft Case

Working Battery

A superb APS camera to use when you are going to the beach (or anywhere else you don't want to risk your expensive digital!)This little camera is truly pocket sized yet is packed with features:

Multi-Programmed Flash
Intelligent the Multi-Programmed Flash distinguishes Fotonex 250ix from other compact cameras by automatically providing enough flash for natural-looking pictures. It uses a sensor and the camera's autofocus system to measure the distance from your subject. A CPU processes that data to determine the optimum flash power. When there's too little light or your subject is several steps away, the Multi-Programmed Flash uses high flash power to provide a clear beautiful photo. When there's almost enough natural light, it uses softer flash power, ensuring beautifully natural skin tones of human subjects.

Zoom Lens
The 25mm - 55mm zoom range covers the most useful focal lengths, giving you access to wide angles for a better perspective

Night Portrait Mode
To capture both the subject and a lit background in detail, select Night Portrait Mode, which synchronises the flash with a slow shutter speed. The results can be sparkling.

Red-eye Reduction Mode
Red-eye Reduction Mode fires a series of light pulses to contract the subject's pupils before the main flash fires. The result: consistently natural-looking photographs.

Auto Macro
Shoot close-ups like a professional with Auto Macro, which lets you get as close as 60 cm from your subject to capture stunning detail. Changing modes is not necessary; Fotonex 250ix focuses precisely automatically and Multi-Programmed Flash provides softer flash for a natural-looking picture.

Autofocus with Autofocus Lock
Just point and shoot-Autofocus uses an infrared beam to focus instantly on your subject. It also lets you keep the subject in focus while you reframe your shot; the subject stays in focus no matter where it is in the frame.

Improved Quality through Magnetic Information Exchange
Each time you take a photo with Fotonex 250ix, it writes information, such as the lighting conditions and magnification, on the film's magnetic layer. During photofinishing, the lab uses that information to ensure the optimum colour balance and density in all prints.

Flash Off Mode
To override Multi-Programmed Flash for a photo with more subtle lighting or in places where flash photography is not permitted, Fotonex 250ix has Flash Off Mode.

Landscape Mode
Landscape Mode sets focus at infinity, enabling you to capture landscapes with astonishing clarity even through a window.

Auto Exposure
Under all normal lighting conditions, Fotonex 250ix automatically selects the optimum shutter speed and aperture

Auto Film Speed Setting
This feature automatically sets the film speed for ISO 25 - 3200 films.

Drop-In Loading
Fotonex 250ix features a better film loading system Drop-ln Loading. The automatic, failsafe way to load film, which was pioneered by Fujifilm. Loading and unloading film in Fotonex 250ix takes just a few seconds, even if you've never loaded a roll of film in your life. The film cartridge fits in only one direction and the film advances automatically, so you'll never miss a photo opportunity because film was loaded improperly. After the roll is finished, the film automatically rewinds.

Flash Obstruction Warning System
Fujifiim's Flash Obstruction Warning System prevents a common cause of ruined photos-a finger covering the flash during a shot. If your finger is covering the flash as you press the shutter, a red LED warning light blinks next to the viewfinder.

Control Panel Switches
The handy side panel gives you control over the main Information Exchange functions: the date and time for backprinting are turned on and off here; there's a Print Quantity switch for inputting the number of prints you want; and Select Title, with over 30 popular titles in 12 languages in memory, lets you backprint a description of the occasion of your picture.

3 Print Formats 
Front printing with every photo you shoot with Fotonex 250ix, you can select from 3 print formats: H format (9:16) formats. C (Classic.), the same as conventional 35mm; H (HDTV), for a new perspective; and P (Panorama), when you want to capture a scene of panoramic proportions. Each time you select the format with a switch on the back of the camera, the viewfinder changes to that format as well, so you see the scene exactly as it will appear on your print.

Index Prints
When you pick up your prints from your photo-finisher, you will also be given the cartridge and a handy index print that shows the images on your roll of film. Each image is shown in the format it was shot and its frame number is marked beside it. When you're searching for a photo, or want to reorder a print, just look at your index print to find the one you want instantly!

Digital Possibilities
Taking pictures is just the beginning of the Advanced Photo System revolution. With an interface, you can see your photos on a television, and even scan them into a digital form readable by personal computers for use in greeting cards, newsletters and other creative projects. Indeed, some of the technologies that will harness the Advanced Photo System's tremendous power are only now being invented.

Sequential Self-Timer 
This useful function lets you automatically take up to three photos in sequence-great for recording a subject in motion.

LCD Panel 
This window shows what modes the camera is in at all times.

Lithium Battery 
One 3V lithium battery provides power for up to 400 shots. .
