Amazon.com Product Description

Speed is mostly what sets the A340 apart from previous cameras. Slide the camera cover open and you'll be ready to start taking photos in about three seconds. The camera also has a quick refresh between images--less than a second. Images come out of the A340 quickly, too, since it is compatible with the much-faster transfer speeds of USB 2.0 when uploading to computers that are likewise equipped.

Optics and resolution
Featuring a 4-megapixel CCD sensor, the A340 can create images up to 2016 x 1512 pixels, which is enough information to create photo-quality prints up to 10 by 13 inches. The camera features a 3x Fujinon zoom lens. Also, the camera has a 1.7x digital zoom feature, but only when shooting in 2 MP mode. To get those close-up shots full of detail, the A340's macro mode can focus the camera on subjects just 3.6 inches from the lens.

Movie mode
Shoot up to one minute of AVI video without sound at resolutions up to 320 x 240 pixels; up to four minutes at lower resolutions. The movies aren't camcorder quality, but they're fun and convenient, and they're perfect as e-mail attachments. The camera includes cables that allow you to view your movies on NTSC (North American) and PAL (other regions) televisions and, of course, you can upload the files to your computer via the camera's USB interface.

Storage and transfer
Images and video are stored on xD memory cards (16MB included). Files can be downloaded to either a Mac or PC via USB connectivity, which means it can be connected to any USB-based Windows 98/Me/2000/XP and Mac OS 8.6 or later computer without installing any software. This camera can transfer images at a faster USB 2.0 rate to computers installed with a USB 2.0 card.

Printing
This camera is compatible with the PictBridge direct-printing standard. That means that it can connect and print directly to a number of printers by different manufacturers without additional software or even a computer. Learn more about PictBridge.

Power and Size
The camera is powered by two AA-size batteries (alkaline included, rechargeable NiMH recommended). It measures 4.09 by 2.42 by 1.23 inches and weighs 5.1 ounces without batteries and memory card.

CP-FXA10 Picture Cradle
The CP-FXA10 Picture Cradle faciliates easy image downloads, power recharging, PC-Cam mode, and also acts as a video platform when connected to a television set. It allows users to quickly download images through USB port connections, making it easy to store and share digital images electronically. The cradle's smart power system offers a two-hour recharge time for the FinePix A-series cameras' optional NH-10 Ni-MH battery pack. The cradle recognizes alkaline batteries and shuts off the recharger mode, protecting the camera and safeguarding the consumer.

In addition, the cradle may be used in PC-Cam conferencing mode, and can be connected to other FinePix users through the FinePix Viewer 4.0 software package included with all new Fujifilm FinePix digital cameras. In addition, by using the CP-FXA10's Picture Cradle's video out port to connect to a television set, movies shot with the FujiFilm A340 can be enjoyed on a full screen and easily recorded with a VCR.

Go for something a little better........2007-05-27

I found the fujifilm camera takes mediocre pictures. The flash always seemed too bright, which always made the subject too light and the background too dark. Outside was the only time I got a good picture and that was rare. Inside, without the flash, you get a blurry picture. I honestly got better pictures from a disposable camera than with this digital camera.

It might've just been my luck, but I also lost 5 memory cards to this camera. Every once in awhile, I'd turn my camera on and the screen would read "card error". All my pictures were erased and the card became useless.

At least I didn't pay for it.......2007-05-10

I got this camera as a gift. At first I was really happy to finally have a digital camera. Then I found the power mechanism to be inconvenient. Even if I put it in a case it can open by itself, which drowns the batteries. Also, when taking pictures at night or a dimly lit room, the picture comes out looking like "someone on acid" I don't like it at all. I've missed so many photo opportunities because of this fault. I am currently looking for a new camera with NIGHT vision being on the top of the list.

Overall, it's ok. Battery life is fine and it takes decent pics.

Fuji Camera.......2007-02-07

Thank you , I was very satified with my camera , It is easy to work and the promptness of delivery made my day.I will continue to shop Amazon .

Reliable and cheap.......2006-04-27

I have had my camera for 1.5 years. It's proven to be very reliable. I breed and keep siamese fighting fish and I need a camera to be able to capture detail of the fish through aquarium glass which are 6cm. It's been very reliable concidering the rough and tumble treatment it's had, including melting it slightly on a hallogen lightglobe!!!

The down side is there is a need to be patient and take multiple pictures before you end up with a good quality photo. It doesn't work well in the dark and doesn't handle motion pictures well.

However you definately get good value for basic photographs and realiability, it's a great, handy little camera to have.
