New Fujifilm cameras


Fujifilm has been strangely quiet over the past month but today they finally announced three compact cameras, including the latest in the F-series high-sensitivity line. One thing you’ll observe here is that the two entry-level models today, the FinePix A100/A150 support only SD/SDHC cards, dropping support xD-Picture card compatibility. Could this be the start of Fujifilm dropping support for the almost-proprietary xD-card they’ve been using with Olympus for years?
