fujifilmfinepixj20 Fujifilm has had a reputation of launching economical, yet feature packed cameras for the budget conscious customer. More often than not, you will find many cameras in the market with more features than the Fujifilm devices, but you will find heir price tags to be way too high.

Fujifilm has launched yet another cheaply priced camera in the market. The company has launched the Fujifilm FinePix J20 that is priced at a mere $130. The aspects that make this camera worth going for, in addition to an economical price tag, are its excellent image quality, good design, user friendliness, and style quotient.

The Fujifilm FinePix J20 is a slim 10 megapixels device. In terms of design, the camera is a mere 0.7 inches in terms of thickness and its body is made metallic. You will find a 3X optical zoom lens in the camera. The camera also features a very effective ‘digital image stabilization’ mode.

This mode lets you click clear and sharp images even when you move the camera around fiercely in between the shots. This is the first time that the ‘digital image stabilization’ mode has been incorporated in an entry level camera by any company. The camera features a 2.7-inch big LCD screen. You will find the essential shutter, off/on buttons on the top of the camera.

You will find controls like playback button, settings button, zoom button, and menu button at the back side of the camera. These controls give company to the LCD screen. The camera sports SD/SDHC card slot and the mini-USB connector at the bottom of the body.

The camera features about 17 scene modes in addition to the basic modes like Auto mode, Manual mode, Automated Scene Recognition mode, and Movie mode. The camera records 640 by 480 resolution AVI clips at a rate of 30 frames per second. The image quality from this camera is very good.

The images come out to be very less distorted and boast of natural, vibrant, yet bright colors. The battery life of the camera is good in such a way that you can take about 221 shots on a single full charge of the battery. If you are looking for an exciting entry level camera with a decent price, the FinePix J20 is an excellent option to go for.

Just bought the Fujifilm J20 yesterday. Went to a family reunion and took several pics outside and inside the house. The display appeared dark, so I brightened the LCD. When I got home and loaded the pics on computer. I saw how the pictures were poor, grainy like they were out of focus. I returned to the store where I bought it. They got another out and found the same poor quality in the focus of the pics. Returned the camera and now purchasing the J10 online I had that got stolen on vacation. The J10 has excellent detail in the quality of the pics on the LCD screen and pictures.
