Feature-packed
The 16 megapixel AV250 boasts a 3x Fujinon zoom. The excellent resolution sensors and top quality Fujinon optics combine with the high sensitivity settings (to ISO 3200) to deliver sharp, clear images whatever the shooting conditions. The AV250 also features Fujifilm’s Digital Image Stabilisation technology to compensate for image blur caused by hand shake or subject movement, this will ensure you always get a great picture. Furthermore, with the AV250's superb Auto Flash the beginner photgrapher can let the camera decide what light is right.
Get creative
Use the Motion Panorama mode to take impressive snaps of your favourite places and fill your walls with pictures your family and friends will admire. This mode allows you to stitch three photos together to create one stunning panoramic image, perfect for wide landscapes, tall buildings or large groups of people.
Take great group pictures with Face Detection and Automatic Red-Eye removal
Face Detection and Automatic Red-eye Removal
Great group photos can be challenging to get right when you are trying to make sure everyone looks good. Fujifilm’s Face Detection feature takes the hard work out of it, by ensuring that the camera settings are optimised for focus and red-eye removal, on all faces detected.
Shoot and share
The Finepix AV250 captures stunning 1080p HD photos and 720p movies, allowing you to show off your impressive pictures and videos to your family and friends on any HD ready television* (or home PC).
*To connect to an HD-ready TV, you will need an HD Player (HDP-L1) (sold separately)
Take crisp, clear photos every time
Intuitive features
Scene Recognition Auto mode intelligently detects your scene type and shooting conditions, and is able to optimise the camera's focus, exposure and white balance to achieve perfect results. So whether you're photographing a stunning outdoor scene or the school sports day, you will get flawless photos at the press of a button. Or if you prefer you can choose one of 21 pre-programmed scene modes for extra control. What's more this season's 'A' series digital cameras also benefit from Single and Tracking Auto Focus modes, to ensure crisp, clear photos, every time.
Can't find what you're looking for?
If you have ever struggled to find the photo you are looking for on your camera, then this will be your saving grace. All FinePix cameras benefit from a Picture Search feature which allows you to find all images taken in a particular scene mode (e.g. time and date) ensuring it is much faster to navigate through the photos on your camera to find the one you are after.

Colour Name:Black
My boyfriend bought me this camera as a birthday present back in April and it arrived middle of May. Really handy little camera but it's definitely a budget one, photo quality is good though, haven't tested the HD video function yet.
My original review was whining about not being able to get the photos off it but that's because it doesn't mount as an external drive like most cameras do in Mac OSX, you have to open Image Capture and it shows up as a device - easy (once you realise it). So I humbly eat my own words about that.
Software/CD:
Had the same issue with the CD as the first review on this camera, it won't load on any computer I've tried it on (Windows, RedHat Linux and Mac OSX). Tried downloading the FinePixViewer software for Mac OSX off the FujiFilm website and the installer crashes as soon as it starts trying to install the software.
Manual:
Manual that came with the camera was useless, just a basic overview of the camera, no helpful info at all. The manual I downloaded off the FujiFilm website is better so I'd definitely recommend downloading that.
What comes with it:
Comes with a USB cable to plug into your computer, batteries, a coaster CD and a manual.
Same as the other review, no SD card came with the camera so pilfered a spare one from my other camera. No case of any kind either so had to buy one from a camera shop (but that's normal). Batteries last ages though, so far I'm still using the pair that came with the camera so that's really good.
Functions:
The panoramic feature is nice, it pieces three photos together and I've gotten some cracking shots from the top of some hills and at the zoo. Macro mode is called 'flower' mode for some ridiculous reason, and it's same with the other standard camera modes, they've got silly names that make it difficult at a glance to figure out what each mode is for. Photo quality is good though, haven't tested the HD video function yet. The focus is a bit slow sometimes but haven't fully tested all the modes yet.
Overall, I'd say it could have been a good wee budget camera but the lack of a readable CD, useful manual and an SD card make me have to give this camera four stars rather than five.

Colour Name:Black|Amazon Verified Purchase
As I already own a Fujifilm A170 this was a logical upgrade, from 10.2 to 16Mp. What I didn't realise is that there are so many new settings to play with, including a fully automatic scene recognition function!
As with most compact toys these days, the manual comes on a CD rom and online but then lets face it - a hard copy of the manual would be bigger than the camera! The internal memory is also negligible but again, as this is an upgrade to an existing unit I already have a couple of SD cards anyway. On full auto highest resolution a 4Gb card gets you over 500 shots, plenty for the average point-and-shoot photographer's day, and you can always delete shots you don't like on the spot.
As the AV250 is so similar to my previous camera I didn't bother reading any of the blurb, just got it out of the box, checked it over and got down to using it right away. Easy!
As with my previous Fuji, this is a joy to use. It's compact and lightweight but fits nicely into the hands and is quick to turn on and use if you see a photo-op - auto focus means you don't have to mess about twisting lenses to get the perfect shot. Video is also good, shooting at 720P HD you can get some very nice movie clips, length depending on the size of your memory card.
If I had to have a moan about this machine, the only thing I can think of is that the high-gloss black finish tends to show your fingerprints, so I tended to wipe it more than the old (silver) one.
All in all, a very good camera and at the price (I paid £60) an absolute bargain.
Recommended as a high quality back-up to a DSLR for the serious snapper.
