Fuji Digital Cameras

Fuji digital cameras entered the market in the late 90’s. Started in a small Japanese in the foothills of Mt. Fuji, the Fuji Film Co. Ltd was founded in the year 1934. Today, Fuji is known for its great digital cameras and innovative technology.
It took Fuji 35 years to come to the USA. Within a span of four years, in 1969, the company had expanded itself so fast that the
Morgan Guaranty Trust Company issued American Depository Receipts (ADRs) on Fuji Photo Film stock.
In 1976, Fuji Film launched the world’s first ISO 400 color print film. Then, in 1980, Fuji launched the fastest color motion picture film - the A-250. One of the biggest launches in camera history made by Fuji was the QuickSnap in the year 1986. The QuickSnap was a one-time-use camera and it became an instant hit in the market. Improvising on the QuickSnap, Fuji introduced the world’s first one-time use 35mm camera with a flash in the year 1988.
Fuji was not a company which could be left behind as far as digital technology and digital cameras was concerned. Even though Sony overtook Fuji in the race of introducing the first digital camera, Fuji gave the world the first digital camera with removable media in the year 1988.
Today, Fuji has firmly established itself in the digital revolution. Fuji has also made forays into digital printing technology.
