Another new digital camera from Fuji for the outdoorsy types: check out the FujiFilm FinePix BIGJOB HD-3W camera with a neat waterproof/dustproof design and big 3" preview LCD. The HD-3W offers 3x optical zoom.

The HD-3W, offering all of 6 megapixels in image resolution, is equipped with a 28mm~84mm wide-angle lens for a bigger picture. High sensitivity up to ISO 1600 is supported on this baby. Geared for rough weather, the camera comes with a rubber grip.

On-board, Fuji has fit in approximately 27MB of memory - which means as many as 67 images at 1280x960 pixel resolution can be stored on the camera. As is the norm with Fuji, this camera takes in xD Picture Cards.

You can also shoot videos at VGA (640x480 pixels) resolution at 30 frames-per-second with mono-aural sound. Measuring 128.3mm x 80.5mm x 45mm, the camera weighs in at 390g excluding battery and memory card. Not exactly light-weight.

No word on pricing yet, but the Fuji BIGJOB HD-3W digital camera will be out in January 2007.
