    FujiFilm FinePix AV200 Review

    A superb entry level camera

    Decent image and video quality, 720p HD movies recording with continuous autofocus and zoom, great price, in-camera converting and uploading videos to YouTube and Facebook

    Only digital image stabilization, macro mode requires subject to be placed at least 15 cm from lens, sound gets muted when using zoom while shooting videos

Point and shoot cameras are the bread and butter of all digicam manufacturers and there is a huge variety of them available in the market at this point of time. FujiFilm has also got one - the FinePix AV200, which has an impressive set of features for an entry level camera. This 14 MP camera has got 3X optical zoom with digital image stabilization. Features such as Smile Shutter, Face Detection and Blink Detection are also present along with eight shooting modes. This camera also supports movie recording in 720p HD resolution. We have reviewed this camera, so read on to find out how well it performs.

Bundle

  • FujiFilm FinePix AV200
  • 2x AA type Alkaline batteries
  • Hand strap
  • USB cable
  • CD-ROM
  • User manual

The bundle is fairly sparse to reduce the cost. The battery charger lets you charge the battery separately, while you can also charge it using the USB 2.0 cable.

It does not come with rechargeable batteries, but you can use a pair of rechargeable AA batteries with this camera.

Nice review. This camera is just going out of stock in Japan today (2011/7/16) and is therefore on sale, at 7000 yen. I like the fact that it uses AA batteries, because I am always finding that my camera is out of power when I want to take a photo. I keep a stock of AA batteries so with this camera I can always be prepared but... how long do they last? How many shots can I take with/without the flash? A video link to youtube would have been great as would some sort of test card with lots of detail as opposed to flowers and a rupee coin.

Iv been using this camera and have used the entry level Nikon and Canon models before. Must say that Fuji has beaten them hands down. If you are interested in a point and soot, this is a very good bet. Although higher end models are much better from Nikon or Canon esp their DSLR's.

Cannon new A800 & A1200 models are better with AA batteries.
