High-Resolution images With 12.2 megapixels, you will be amazed at the clarity of the images you take: clear, sharp and packed full of colour.
Let us do all the hard work Fujifilm's Scene Recognition Auto (SR AUTO) technology makes it easy to take good pictures. It intelligently detects a scene without the need to pre-select a mode on the camera. Having identified the most commonly photographed subjects, Fujifilm has developed technology to automatically recognise different scenes; Portrait, Backlit Portrait, Night Portrait, Landscape, Night and Macro. Just point at the scene and let the camera adjust the settings to optimise the results. Easy!
Perfect Portraits For perfect people pictures Fujifilm's Face Detection technology cleverly detects faces in the frame and sets the focus and exposure for the faces rather than anything in the background, revealing sharp and in-focus portrait shots.
No More Blur The J40 is kitted out with Picture Stabilization, which minimises image blur that can so often ruin photos. Fujifilm's stabilization system works automatically and ensures that image blurring and camera shake are kept to an absolute minimum.

Make a Movie Capture more than just a picture - re-live your memories in their full glory, with sound at 30 frames per second. You can even use the zoom function during movie recording.
Good in low-light Photos taken in low light are the ones that are most likely to produce disappointing results. Limited flash range and direct light can mean the foreground is harshly lit and the background lost all together. If the flash isn't used at all, the image can suffer from digital interference called 'noise' as the sensor struggles to pick up all of the detail in the scene. Fujifilm has put 70 years of experience in imaging into fine-tuning the light sensitivity and flash systems of its cameras and you perhaps wouldn't normally expect a camera placed at such an affordable price point, to house such technology – but we can assure you - it does.
Scene it? With 17 special scene modes, the J40 is ready to shoot everything and anything, from "Sunsets" to "Flowers." Have fun trying out each scene position and the camera automatically selects the appropriate shutter speed, exposure and white balance to ensure that you get great images with the least amount of effort.
