Fujifilm FinePix A500 - digital camera review

 

Fujifilm FinePix A500

Low price; easy operation.

No manual controls; sluggish operation; average image quality; no burst mode.

The appeal of the basic Fujifilm FinePix A500's tiny price tag is offset by its slim feature set and mediocre performance.

Fuji FinePix A500

 

Fuji's 5MP FinePix shoots very good stills and gives you solid performance for less than $200.

Very good picture quality. Solid performance. No shutter lag.

Annoying zoom switch. Poor video quality. Slow recycle time. Images were a bit noisy, even at low ISO.

Fujifilm FinePix A500

 

Fujifilm's new A500 is an entry-level camera with 5 megapixels, 3x optical zoom and a 1.8 inch LCD. Now, that isn't very exciting but wait till you hear this: behind that 3x zoom lens is Fujifilm's SuperCCD. The SuperCCD is well known for its low noise...

Good battery life ; Simple; user friendly ; Good image quality and low noise at high ISOs

LCD is not great; low resolution, small coverage and bad outdoor viewing ; Not for low-light: slow lens, weak flash, no AF-assist beam ; No continuous shooting ; Slow performance

I've not much to say about the Fujifilm FinePix A500. It's just your average entry-level camera with 5 megapixels and 3x optical zoom. The FinePix A500 has good battery life, is user friendly and good image quality. However, the FinePix A500 has a...

As a budget compact camera, the FinePix A500 is a fairly competant model. It doesn't offer the best image quality in the world, and has some noise issues, but for this price tag it is hard to complain.
