Picture Quality / Size Options (7.0)
The F40fd is the first Fujifilm F-series camera to have more than 6.3 megapixels. It has 8.3 megapixels, in fact, on a relatively large 1/1.6-inch Super CCD HR sensor. The following image sizes are selectable from the "F" menu: 3296 x 2472, 3504 x 2336 (3:2), 2304 x 1728, 1600 x 1200, and 640 x 480.
Picture Effects Mode (7.0)
Also available in the "F" menu is the lackluster set of color modes available on other Fujifilm digital cameras. It includes Black & White, Chrome, and Standard options. Competitors include more effects ranging from red, green, and blue filters to swapping colors in recording and playback modes. On the FinePix F40fd, though, these few effects can only be used in the recording mode.
