Customer Reviews
Was not working...The effect did recieve power, but after buying a XD card not an SD card, we establish it did not work. If it had worked it would have been a perfect for our foetus who wanted his first camera.
The person we purchased from was superior though. Shipping was very fast, and he had no problems processing our repayment. He even gave us a goodwill credit for our troubles.
Fuji A340
Okay average pix taker, but dated. It fits a niche here. Is brawny enough to take mild shocks, bumps.
A Godly CAMERA
I Make HAD THIS CAMERA FOR 4 YEARS. MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH DIGITAL. THE PICTURES ARE Charming. I DID A FIRMWARE UPDATE SO I COULD USE 512 CARDS (THAT'S THE LIMIT) THAT'S Over and beyond 500 PICTURES. I RECENTLY BOUGHT A NIKON COOLPIX TO GET UPDATED, How on earth I WAS DISAPPOINTED AND NOTHING TURNED OUT GOOD. MY A340 IS SUPERIOR IN MY EYES. I AM NOT A Masterly, BUT I HAVE HAD MORE COMPLIMENTS ON THE PICTURE QUALITY OF THE FINEPIX. I TOOK THE NIKON In arrears FOR A FULL REFUND AND BOUGHT ANOTHER USED A340 Cast-off FOR $10. FROM EBAY.
Remarkable Little Camera, BUT..........
That inexperienced toggle switch on the back, which controls the zoom, glitter and programming functions is the Fuji A340's Achille's heel. Well-spring lost its ability to zoom up or down, thus robbing my camera of its functionality.
I was expert to use the flash card until it was full -- my other scintillation cards had to be programmed or the contents deleted -- and my Fuji was now ineffectual of doing so.
Made me sad, mad and frustrated. I LOVE this little camera, and its cleverness to shoot high quality photos -- I took it high with me, and now it lies ingloriously inside a plastic baggie, waiting for the day when I can get it reapaired. I unprejudiced bought a Nikon D50 -- so my budget will not allow for any Fuji repairs at furnish.
I realize that this is by far, a Disposable World -- and doesn't matter what that breaks usually gets pitched, so whatever I mightiness wish for this Fuji is probably not going to happen, but let me say it anyway -- I Have a mind Fuji would make a METAL toggle switch with Substantial inner components so I can get this camera up and running again with no worries at hand any further toggle switch woes...
I doubt that's active to happen however.
Humane not than I' ve imagine, but good
This camera is real not like i imagine, but the pictures are very good resolutions.
The instance and functionality to open and close, is so back, now day i think will be more new.
