UPDATE: These cameras are currently on sale, through this link at Amazon
The FinePix Z33WP is Fujifilm’s first waterproof digital camera. Its a great little unit that is ideal for taking out into the surf. Small enough to shove down your wetsuit, the FinePix Z33WP ensures you’ll never miss capturing that wave, your best mates tube, all the action on your surf trip, or any other or you precious surfing moments. The 10-megapixel water camera is ready for any wave, including wipeouts of up to 10 feet. (so maybe don't take it out at Teahupo)
The Z33WP employs a Fujinon 3x optical zoom lens, has Fujifilm’s ‘Automatic Scene Recognition’ SR AUTO mode technology, and you'll love the 2.7-inch, 230,000 pixel resolution LCD screen.
Intelligent Scene Recognition
The Fujifilm Z33WP has their new SR Auto (Automatic Scene Recognition) mode that means the camera can recognise between six types of scenes automatically and optimise the exposure, focus, white balance and ISO for the photo. This ensures the best quality picture is captured with ease, a very important feature as that wave is rolling in. Lets face it, you just do not have time to adjust camera settings in these scenarios. To further help you take photos while sitting on your board, Fujifilm has added their Picture Stabilization, which is powered by high sensitivity for faster shutter and operational speeds. This can help reduce camera shake, keeping those barrelling moments as true to form as possible.
In addition to these innovations, the FinePix Z33WP is loaded with the following handy features:
- 10.0-megapixel resolution. This means every picture can be a large, photo quality print
- It is waterproof for up to 10 feet
- It has a 3x optical zoom; 2.7-inch LCD screen with Micro Thumbnail View
- It has a blog mode with 12 editing functions, for easy resizing and publishing of photos
- 50 MB built-in memory; capture images to SD/SDHC memory cards (not included)
- It has Face Detection Technology, which operates in tandem with automatic red-eye removal. The FinePix Z33WP camera can identify up to 10 human faces in a picture and set the correct focus and exposure. This is regardless of where the people are located within the scene.
- A One Touch Video Button: Capture VGA quality video clips at 30 frames per second, with sound to capture all of those once-in-a-lifetime moments. This is ideal for when those perfect waves come rolling on through.
- It has an extra long battery life: The rechargeable Li-ion battery has up to 200 shots and permits extended use. So you can stop worrying about whether the camera will last for the duration of the trip.

Here Is What Another Owner Has To Say ABout It:
Shandal "Shan"
I have used this camera underwater and on top. Sunsets and sunrises. I really like the way it handles and shoots. Very easy to figure out the settings. The easiest camera I've used so far and I've been shooting for 40 years. Sometimes I just don't want to think about settings but know I can get a great photo. I can with this camera. It's fun taking a video going down a water slide!Review Paraphrased For Size: Click Through Here For Full and Original Review
