The Fujifilm Fotonex 400ix Zoom is a compact camera with wide-angle to portrait (25-100mm) zoom lens. The lens is has Fujifilm's special EBC coating (Electron Beam Coating). Of course the camera has a built-in flash, but with a special feature: A red LED in the zoom viewfinder indicates whether a finger accidentally covers the little flash or not. The camera shoots onto APS film, offering the whole set of APS camera extras like 3 formats, PQI and mid-roll film change, as well as the whole set of typical compact camera features like lockable infrared autofocus, fully automatic exposure and a set of flash modes.
