Incredibly reliable--i love this thing! [Posted on 2002-11-30]
i've had this camera for little over half a year now, and i love it! i've been an on-and-off amateur photographer for about 5 years now, and this is my third camera, first digital. To those who complain about the "flimsy" chassis, i suggest you walk around with a solid, magnesium-cased samsung in your backpack for an afternoon. i guarantee that you and your lower back will appreciate the light plastic shell. and to those who complain about the battery life, BUY A PAIR OF RECHARGABLE BATTERIES! or better yet, buy two pairs; you'll still save money! overall, when paired with photoshop, this camera makes for one heck of a camera. i should know--it's picture quality and convience is the envy of all my friends who're stuck with 35mms!
::By the way, i forgot to mention the price, which is bargain-basement for such picture quality!::
Very satisfied [Posted on 2003-03-10]
This is my first digital camra. I use it specifically to photograph 2- dimensional and 3- dimensional art work. I have been very pleased with the quality of the photos. I also use it to photograph landscapes, although that is not the primary purpose of the camera for me. I have also been satisfied with it in that way. Sometimes I have had "spots" when photographing outside, but I think this is related to the light source. I am very pleased.
A great Camera [Posted on 2003-04-02]
The A201 is very Good camera and I bought it with my own money( I am eight years old). It has satisfied me very well with its price. I am impressed with the quality and I would recomend it to anyone shopping for an entry-level good-quality bash-around camera. I have sent many e-mails using the easy-to-use FinePix Software that comes in the box with the USB (universal serial bus) connector. The software comes with automatic procedures such as saving in the "My Pictures" Folder that comes with every computer. The software comes with the Update and delteable folder called "100_fugi". The only dis is that the camera for some reason makes the target father than the Human eyebut other than that the camera is very good and toped my expectations. At first I thought of buying the Canon Powershot but the store manager at [a local store] gave me a better deal, the A201.

I bought this camera in march and by day 2 while turning it broke.... I had a whole problem with it.I dont recommend it when you have children because its really flimsy..... DONT BUY IT.
good, basic, but dated [Posted on 2006-12-21]
Nice, basic camera for a newbie or kid to get started with. These are no longer made, but there are still some new ones & plenty of used ones floating around out there.
BEWARE: Uses obsolete SmartMedia memory cards, which are difficult to find (unless you order online). Yet for all these cards' obsolesence,their prices haven't come down.
Don't pay more than $50 for a new A201, and make sure its memory card contains at least 16 MB of memory. That should allow one to get about 50 pictures out of it when it's @ default settings.
Disadvantages: no zoom function; steep learning curve if one has never used a digital camera before; must use rechargable batteries unless you want to spend a fortune on regular AA batteries; time it takes to green-light between shots is long -- not good if you're taking action shots.
