Conclusion
The Fujifilm FinePix S6000fd has a solid set of components on its sturdy body. The SLR-shaped camera has a Fujinon 10.7x optical zoom lens, a cushioned electronic viewfinder, and a 2.5-inch LCD screen with perhaps the best resolution on the market. The solid body is backed up with solid technology too. A 6.3-megapixel Super CCD is paired with a second generation RP Processor that is responsible for the camera’s flagship face detection technology.

The technology is activated easily with a designated button and works surprisingly well. The camera places brackets around up to 10 faces at a time – and does so very quickly. It then tracks the faces as long as they’re facing the camera. This technology is not only very interesting to watch, but quickly ensures that faces are always in focus for portraits and such. The S6000fd comes with a full manual to automatic range of controls and retails for the same price as many less sophisticated models. The Fujifilm FinePix S6000fd has a few strange quirks like the 3-shot burst mode, the lack of image stabilization, and the awful viewfinder resolution, but the $499 price tag and the other positive aspects of the camera are enough to look past those faults.
