Camera Overview — Fujifilm FinePix 40i

The Fujifilm FinePix 40i is an early-2000s point-and-shoot compact camera built around a 2.4MP sensor in a 1/2.5-inch format, housed in a slim aluminum-magnesium alloy body measuring 85.5 x 71 x 28.5 mm and weighing just 155g. It captures stills at a maximum resolution of 2400x1800 pixels in the sRGB color space, with autofocus handled by a single-point contrast detection system. The camera features a 1.8-inch D-TFT LCD display with 110,000 dots of resolution alongside an optical tunnel viewfinder, giving shooters two ways to frame their shots.

ISO is fixed at 200, meaning this camera performs best in well-lit conditions. The built-in flash covers a range of up to 2.5 m at f/2.8 and offers Auto, On, Red-eye reduction, Slow, and Off modes. Power comes from two AA NiMH batteries, rated for approximately 100 shots per charge.

A standout hardware detail for its era is the 3.5mm headphone jack, which supports MP3 playback — an unusual multimedia feature for a camera. The body connects via USB and stores images on compatible media. There is no image stabilization of any kind, no Wi-Fi, and no Bluetooth.
