Introducing the finepix A600 Zoom
The FinePix A600 Zoom is for the person who does not want complexity to get in the way of quality. It spares you the excess of controls and dials that cover many other cameras, and provides automatic settings that rely on the camera's know-how to get the shot. Furthermore, the Super CCD sensor within this camera will provide pictures that have a real edge over conventional compacts that compete in this class. Fujifilm has over a decade of expertise in producing first-rate digital images, and it shows in this 6 million pixel camera.

6.3 million pixels super CCD
Fujifilm's proprietary Super CCD sensor has been used in the entry-level range. The only way to see the benefit of this feature is to savour its photos – crisp, colourful and clear, this 6 million pixel camera enhances the reputation of Super CCD for creating pictures that don't look digital – they look real.

Simple operation
Digital photography isn't everyone's specialist subject, however this camera is as accessible as they come. How often have you found that you can't work out why your pictures look wrong, only to find that you had mistakenly pressed one of the many buttons for features that you would never use? With the A600 Zoom, Fujifilm has done what most people have been hoping for: create a camera that cuts your bad shots to an absolute minimum.

2.4-inch LCD screen
The A600 competes in a market where LCD screens are usually very small, and it is difficult to see the quality of your image clearly. The A600 gives you a well-specified 2.4-inch LCD on which you and your friends can inspect and enjoy your photography.

Solid bulid
Just because it's at the beginning of our range doesn't mean that we have cut corners on the quality. Just pick up the A600 Zoom to find out how metal components have been engineered into the design to create a surprisingly rugged construction that feels reassuring to hold.

Fjinon zoom lens
We all know that the number of pixels can only be brought to life by the processor within the camera. On top of that, the lens plays a decisive role in influencing the quality of the final image. The FinePix A600 Zoom makes full use of the pedigree of professional-standard optical design.

Memory built-in
It's reassuring to know that as long as the camera has power, you can take a picture – the FinePix A600 Zoom contains a very useful 12MB of internal memory, which is enough to accommodate those emergency images that you didn't have space for on the card. With that said, the main storage for images on the A600 Zoom should be an additional xD card, which will allow you to accommodate almost as many images as you like.
