Two New GE Cameras Offer Low Price

Wednesday November 4, 2009

General Imaging, the digital camera division of GE, recently released a pair of new consumer-level digital cameras, the J1050 and the J1250.

The J1050 (pictured here) is a 10.1-megapixel camera and costs about $130. (Compare Prices)

Those selecting the J1250 will receive a little more resolution at 12.2 megapixels, while carrying a price tag of about $150.

Both cameras measure about 0.8 inches in thickness, offer a 2.7-inch LCD, and feature a 5X optical zoom lens. Both cameras also are available in four colors: Pink, red, black, and silver.

Don't dismiss these GE cameras because of their low prices; I had a chance to review the GE A1250 recently, and I found a very strong camera for beginning photographers at a low price. I'll be reviewing the J1250 soon, to see whether it can match the A1250.

Regarding the Fuji A220 and by the way the A150 & A170 I have been looking at these cameras and scratching my head. I just don’t understand Fuji. Why are they offering the A series and the J series simultaneously? They are both in the same price range and both seem to be a match in terms of features. I have been trying to decide which. This review partly convinces me that maybe I should chuck Fuji altogether and look somewhere else like the new Olympus FE 20 and 46. RW
