What our customer's say!

"Great Camera for General Use", Got a nice price on this camera, installed a 1 GB memory card, and am very happy with it! Helpful book explains nice-looking interface.

"Fujifilm Finepix A500 5MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom ", My granddaughter was so excited with her first camera. She immediately started taking pictures.

"Opinions a year later", I bought this camera at a grocery store a year ago as a substitute for the Olympus they had run out of and it had higher megapixels. So I used it last Xmas and the pictures in doors and out were okay but not remarkable.
Then I went to an early season Yankees game this year (they won 1-0 vs Tampa Bay) and my 35mm had a suddenly dead battery, so this was all I had. Luckily I had sprung for a bigger memory card, even though it's xd instead of sd so it can't be used i9n many other cameras.
And the pictures came out okay of monument park and the field, although I wish it had more than 3x zoom
Plus, my computer has a slot for xd cards, so no harm done and Picasa seems to make everything look better than Vista.
All that being said, it's a year later and this is a back up at best, the price is now down so if it's a $70 camera you want, this may be your baby cause I have no real complaints. BUT if you want to go to about $100 get a Nikon L18, same size, pixels seem to matter between 5 to 8, colors and zoom work well.
Final disclaimer: my reviews are always personal impressions and not based on techical knowledge, you can get that anywhere. And I'm an easy marker for the stars.
And with $$$$$$$$$$$$$ for new pitching, the Yankees will win the World Series again in 2009- Remember baseball fans go to see their team play, Yankees fans go to see their team WIN!!!!!

"A waste of hard earned dollars", This is my second Fuji Digital Camera. The first one failed with a "ZOOM ERROR" after only a few months of average use. The camera was useless. I returned it to the place of purchase, and of course the model is no longer in production. After an argument with the store manager, they allowed me to trade up to the newer model, charging only the difference.

Well After about a year of average use, I got the exact same "ZOOM ERROR" message on the newer model. I do not want to pay $250 every two years for a camera, so this will be my last FUJI purchase. When I spend money, I expect reliability, and FUJI misses the mark!

"Own it, LOVE IT!!!!! ", This is an upgrade to the last Fuji & still have & after using Fuji its no wonder I & Others Love them!!.. They are easy to use & work so well taking excellent pictures!! !

"Nice little camera and great value", Great camera for the price... pictures are sharp and clear and it is easy to use!

"Satsfied", This is a good affordable camera.
I really don't have any complaints.
Just make sure you don't buy any cheap batteries,
cause the camera wont operate or go off after a lil
while.
I personally use the lithium batteries with this
camera and they last me for a long time depending
on how often you use the camera.


"So Far, So Good", I just got this camera, and I haven't fully explored its range yet, but so far I'm happy with it. This is my first digital camera. It's a light-weight, compact camera that makes it easy to take along. It was very easy to start taking pictures and install the software on my computer. I just took it with me on vacation in New Mexico and got some great outdoor shots in a wide variety of lighting conditions, and I've also had success using it indoors.

"Great Little Camera", I love this camera in every way except the power button, which is very tiny even for 5'3" me. Also, you cannot always tell in bright lighting if the picture has taken, although it usually has.
What I love is its size and the quality of the pictures - inside and outside.
Downloading from it is a simple process.
Buy it.


"Good but not great.", I got this camera a little over a year ago and was instantly amazed by how easy it was to learn. It doesn't do anything fancy, but I didn't need anything more than a good "point and click" camera to carry around. The delay between clicking and the camera actually taking the picture was a bit off, which makes action shots difficult, but still life photos and portrait type photos are great! The only major downside is how quickly it goes through batteries. Yikes! Rechargables are a good solution, but you better NEVER forget to take an extra pair of fully charged if you're going out for an evening of picture snapping. If you're going on vacation, take a lot.

I'd give this camera a higher rating if not for the way it died on me. The day after I took some pictures, the camera developed a Focus Error and the zoom lense wouldn't retract, even after replacing the batteries. I emailed Fuji about it and they suggested some things that didn't work, or I could send it in for repair that would probably ultimately cost more than the camera itself did. Why bother?

My advice -- shell out a little extra for something better. You'll be glad you did in the long run. If you just want something cheap, this camera is decent, but remember what they say about getting what you pay for...
