Fuji FinePix A400 Zoom

Review of the Fuji FinePix A400 Zoom

Available from February 2006, the Fuji FinePix A400 is a new entry level point and shoot camera offering a respectable 4 megapixels with 3x optical zoom and 3.6x digital zoom. The LCD screen is a fairly modest size by today's standards (only 1.8") and movies are recorded at 10 frames per second which is slower than on some other Fuji models (see the Fuji FinePix A350.) This is a fairly standard digital camera but from a good quality manufacturer and offers reasonable features at a good price.
