Fujifilm FinePix A700 - Digital Camera

Fujifilm releases a new 7.3 megapixel camera. FinePix A700 has 3x optical zoom, 2.4 inch LCD display, and 12MB of internal storage.
Available in October for 199 dollar.

"The highlight feature of the FinePix A700 is its sophisticated 7.3 MegaPixel Super CCD sensor. Originally, Fujifilm placed its Super CCD sensor in digital cameras aimed at advanced amateur and professional photographers. This year, however, a breakthrough was made and Super CCD made its maiden, A-Series appearance in the FinePix A400 and FinePix A500 digital cameras. Those cameras carried four and five MegaPixel Super CCD sensors, respectively, and were followed later by the six MegaPixel FinePix A600."
