FujiFilm's FinePix A920 is designed specifically for the first-time digital camera buyer, and consumers seeking an affordable, easy-to- operate upgrade to their current digital camera. This model is loaded with features usually reserved for more advanced models. The camera incorporates Fujifilm's signature Super CCD sensor technology, a 4.0x optical zoom lens and features a 2.7" LCD.

The FinePix A920' 4.0x optical zoom lens was developed specifically for the A-Series by Fujinon, a Fujifilm sister company and leading provider of broadcast-grade television lenses and other high quality optical products across many consumer and industrial applications.

The FinePix A920 also features an intuitive icon-based Graphic User Interface (GUI). When users switch shooting modes, scene positions or control settings, a brief explanation of the setting is momentarily displayed on the LCD screen, taking much of the guess work out of digital camera operation. Additionally, the camera sports a conveniently placed mode dial that provides easy access to the most commonly used shooting modes, including Auto, Picture Stabilization and Movie mode.

Like many of FujiFilma current models, the A920 also utilizes an "xD / SD / SDHC Media Compatible slot"; a single media slot that accepts not only Fujifilm's traditional xD-Picture Cards™, but also SecureDigital (SD) and SDHC media cards. In offering these media options, Fujifilm is providing greater choice and flexibility to consumers who purchase Fujifilm digital cameras.

Two standard AA batteries (alkaline one-use or rechargeable NiMH type) power the FinePix A920. Never get caught with a dead proprietary type battery, you can buy AA batteries nearly anywhere in the world. Off the shelf alkalines will let you capture up to 100 pictures, 2500mAh NiMH cells deliver as many as 350 pictures per charge.
