Camera Overview — Fujifilm DS-300

The Fujifilm DS-300 is a vintage point-and-shoot digital camera built around a 2/3-inch sensor delivering 1.3 MP resolution at a maximum output of 1280x1000 px. It operates with an ISO range of 100 to 400 and relies on contrast detection autofocus with a single focus point, alongside a manual focus option for added control. The body is constructed from magnesium alloy with an aluminum lens barrel, giving it a solid, professional feel at 620g within dimensions of 153 x 96 x 78 mm.

For storage, the DS-300 supports PCMCIA, CompactFlash, and Memory Stick media — a notably flexible set of options for its era. Image output formats include JPEG Basic, JPEG Normal, JPEG Fine, and TIFF Hi, catering to varying quality and file size needs. A built-in flash is present alongside a standard ISO hot shoe for external flash support.

The camera features an optical viewfinder and supports burst shooting at up to 3 frames per second. Power comes from a proprietary Lithium-Ion NP-510 battery. There is no image stabilization of any kind, no video capability, and no wireless connectivity.

The Fujifilm X lens mount is listed in specifications.
