FinePix AV100 Is Sub-$100 Option

Sub-$100 cameras usually don't offer many features you'd want to see, but the FinePix AV100 from Fujifilm may surprise you with its 720p HD video option.

The FinePix AV100 includes 12.2 megapixels of resolution and a 2.7-inch LCD screen, both of which are solid features in a sub-$100 camera. The AV100's 3X optical zoom lens is easily the most disappointing aspect of this camera.

The AV100 is available now at an MSRP of $99.95. (Compare Prices) Look for the AV100 (which is known as the AV105 in some parts of the world) in black and silver body colors. It's a little wider than some beginner cameras (measuring 1.1 inches in thickness) because it can run from two AA batteries, which is handy when traveling.

If you don't plan to shoot a lot of nature photos where a larger zoom lens is a necessity, the FinePix AV100 makes a nice starter camera ... and the price certainly is right.
