Fujifilm FinePix A610 Review

by Eric Butterfield

- The Fujifilm FinePix A610 ($120 as of 5/10/07) is an entry-level digital camera that's well constructed and offers a few worthwhile features. Its basic specs are a little more generous than those of other similarly priced point-and-shoots you may see: a 3X zoom, a 6.3-megapixel sensor, and a 2.5-inch LCD (some other models offer fewer megapixels or only a 2-inch screen).
