Face Detection 2.0 - Full of New Features!

With the expanded range of Face Detection 2.0, every face is clear and bright! It finds faces even if tilted or in full profile, and optimizes focus and brightness. You just frame the shot, press the shutter and enjoy the beautiful results.

Image Intelligence™ - the distillation of the vast image processing technology and know-how of FUJIFILM into a database for application in diverse domains from the printing industry to the medical field. High-accuracy face analysis and detection technology has been integrated in a custom IC chip that can analyze a captured image in an instant and simultaneously detect up to 10 faces. It is a powerful new solution to meet the high quality demands of portrait photography.
Other cameras with face detection can't 'lock on' if the subject has turned sideways or is lying down. The F50fd's Face Detection 2.0 finds a face at almost any angle, leaving you to concentrate on what you're good at - capturing enduring memories of beauty and expression.

Expanded detection of faces up to full profile!

Wider range of detection of tilted faces!
New Face Detection 2.0 does all the work in an instant, leaving you free to frame and snap those fleeting family moments. This next-generation technology not only finds and focuses the faces with precision, but it also optimizes exposure for bright natural faces and even enhances tonal quality by setting the ideal white balance.

Red eye is one of biggest reasons why one's best pictures are ruined. The F50fd employs impressive technology to instantly and automatically correct ugly red eye either as the shot is taken or in playback. Your precious little devils will be turned into darling little angels!


With Face detection, group photos are not only easier to shoot but also more fun when you play them back. You just frame the shot, and Face Detection does the work, simultaneously and accurately finding up to 10 faces for bright, clear results. During playback of group portraits, you can “Zoom Up” on detected faces and check them one by one. If you find a priceless expression, Face Detection and high resolution are ready to automatically “Crop” and save a “portrait” of the detected face.
Automatically correct red eye in playback as well.
