Fujifilm FinePix F100fd

Performance

We were curious to see how the new version of face detection would perform, and were surprised that it did work as stated. It was quick to recognize faces that were facing the camera, and continued to track even when they were moving. Side profiles were easily detected, too, which is one huge plus point. We pointed it at kids hanging from swings at the playground and the F100fd managed to detect their faces, although it was a little slow. But still, kudos to Fujifilm for delivering what it promised.

The camera took 2.56 seconds to start up, which is a crawl compared with other shooters like Panasonic's FX36. However, the shutter lag has been vastly improved from the F50fd (0.5 second), clocking in at 0.1 second.

We found the battery life for the F100fd pretty standard. It lasted us 200 shots before the power indicator icon started blinking.
