Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Fujifilm's 10-megapixel Finepix A150 digital camera features a 3.0x optical zoom lens that was developed specifically for the A-series by Fujinon. The A150 also offers Picture Stabilization that chooses the correct light sensitivity and compatible shutter speed, producing the highest quality digital pictures without blur and noise.

Using the 3-inch LCD screen, the A150 also utilizes Fujifilm’s acclaimed Face Detection Technology that identifies and prioritizes up to 6 faces in a framed scene and then adjusts the focus and exposure accordingly to ensure the sharpness and clarity of human subjects in the picture, regardless of background. After the shot is captured, the A150 instantly checks each detected face for red eye, and if found, corrects it automatically in the camera, avoiding the process of editing later.

Other noteworthy features found on the A150 include:

• Movie Mode: Captures movies with sound at 30 frames per second.
• New Design and Slim Body: Very slim 21.7mm body and sleek casing allows for portability and photography on-the-go.
• Internal Memory: When the SD memory card (sold separately) is filled with images, users have extra internal storage space approx. 20MB on each camera to capture additional pictures.
• AA Battery: Using AA batteries is often most convenient for on-the-go digital camera users as it eliminates the need to charge battery packs, allowing for lots of picture-taking and the ease of battery replacement.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fuji Finepix 150, June 28, 2009

This review is from: Fujifilm FinePix A150 10MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)

I had had a Fuji before and loved it and wanted an upgrade. This camera is easy to use and takes great pictures. The problems are that it needs a view finder. While taking pictures in the desert I could not see what I was "shooting". Also, the instructions came in DVD format. That is kind of hard to use when you are traveling and don't have computer access.

This review is from: Fujifilm FinePix A150 10MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)

I researched cameras quite extensively and had purchased several makes and models prior to this purchase. I have used Fuji in the past and this camera has all the features and compatibility with my devices that I desire. It works well with most Windows programs including Vista. The beauty is that the batteries are AA and easily changable and accessable as opposed to most other camera batteries. SandDisk didnt list any of their media cards as compatible so I went with Kingston as it did not come with one. It has decent video quality with audio. The LCD screen is conveniently larger. The audio is a little sketchy if there is too much noise in the room (like for musicians) but for a standard amount of sound it works fine. Included accessories were limited but affordable separately. Zoom didnt work during video mode so be sure to set it before filming. The price was affordable overall for a point and shoot and the camera is real easy to use. Manuals come in disc form which poses an issue for reading if you arent near a pc but Id suggest asking the company if one is available in paper format. There is no viewfinder but that really isnt necessary since the images are easily viewed on the LCD screen. Shipping was fairly affordable and items arrived according to the estimated arrival dates provided. Hope this helps....Thanks again Amazon!

1.0 out of 5 stars Total Piece of Garbage, September 18, 2009

By 

Carson (Athens, OH USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Fujifilm FinePix A150 10MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)

Died within a month. Died while taking pics. No drops. No damage. Just died. FujiFilm "customer service" reps were total jerks, and the process was going to be expensive and cumbersome. Saw it on Amazon last month for $119, along with the less expensive A100 model, which I can't find on Amazon anymore. That's a good thing, because this camera isn't worth a dime, and it should've been taken off the market more quickly than vegetables with E. Coli. Luckily, I'd bought it at brick-and-mortar store because I needed a camera quickly, and it died on day 29. So, I took it back within the 30-day limit for a refund after hassling with a company that obviously has no idea about creating and maintaining relationships with their customers. Too bad, 'cause it took decent pics and movies during the short time it lasted. If only Fuji could've made it last just one more day, they'd have profited well. I have never written a review on Amazon, as far as I remember, but my experience with this camera prompted me to do so. I will never buy another Fuji product again... Period.
