The Fuji Finepix A100 offers a high level of ease of use. It is clearly aimed at anyone who is looking for a straightforward, point and shoot digital camera. The price tag is also lower than most digital cameras on the market. In terms of features this is one of the more basic sets available. The upside of this is it helps to reduce the number of menu options you need to look through in order to find the setting you would like to change.
Despite its low cost Fuji has still managed to make the Finepix A100 into a small, slim camera. It should fit into a pocket with ease, so you can carry the camera anywhere ready for the next shot. There is also a good sized 2.7 inch LCD screen. Standard features include a 10 megapixel sensor and a 3x optical zoom lens. Face detection processing for better quality portraits is also included. Another feature to help with portraits is an automatic red eye reduction feature.
Power is supplied to the Finepix A100 by AA batteries. Less and less cameras offer this option. The main advantage is that AA batteries are widely available. The downside of this is that this type of digital camera has a reputation for using up batteries quickly. Unless you invest in some good quality rechargeable batteries, this can add to the running costs.
