When you are paying out the sort of money the makers of digital cameras are asking for, then you expect to find yourself sat with a pretty darn good piece of equipment after the exchange. With this, the FinePix 40i, Fuji fulfill that expectation admirably. This little baby does virtually everything but make coffee and sweep up after itself!

Not only does it take pictures but also video clips with mp3 playback as well, all of which is combined into the sexiest, sleek, stylish casing I have ever seen. The build quality of this camera is excellent and with its tiny dimensions (around 3.5(W) 3(H) 1(D)) and 7oz weight it is one of the more compact cameras of its kind as well.

The picture quality is also superb, although in some shots the colours can be slightly on the 'warm' side, but generally they are excellent. iewing of the images can be either through connection to a television, although most will opt for conenction to a PC through the USB port where the camera acts as an additional drive for all intents and purposes. Video images here are saved as AVI files and can be treated as such just as if you were working on your hard drive. You can also load mp3 files onto the camera using this connection, although you have to use the Fuji Audio downloading software to acheive ths, but tis is easily done and you are then able tolisten to these files using walkman style headphones.

So there you have it. Fuji have managed to bring together a digital camera, capable of taking still photos, movies and playing mp3s as well. The build quality is superb, the picture quality good and everything about this camera is easy to use. At £550 it is a little expensive, but I always say you get what you pay for - and this is certainly the case here - in a good way. Seriously consider this camera if you are in the market for this type of thing.
