Fujifilm debuts classy compacts

Fuji has launched a range of tasty new compacts, set to hit the States in September. We'll probably see them soon after, and although UK prices have not yet been announced, the US prices are extremely tempting. Most of the new tranche incorporate Face Detection 2.0, which is much like face detection -- only better! Also included in some of the cameras is mechanical image stabilisation, which is officially A Good Thing.

Pictured above is the FinePix F480, an 8.2-megapixel compact. Its entry-level status is indicated by the 'Baby mode' on the mode dial. The camera comes with a 4x optical zoom and a 69mm (2.7-inch) LCD screen. There's a wide-angle zoom in there, with a focal range of 28-112mm (35mm equivalent).
