Camera Overview — Fujifilm FinePix A170

The Fujifilm FinePix A170 is a compact point-and-shoot camera built around a 10MP 1/2.3-inch sensor, making it a straightforward option for casual everyday photography. It features a 2.7-inch fixed LCD display for composing and reviewing shots, and uses contrast detection autofocus to lock onto subjects. The camera operates within an ISO range of 100 to 1600, giving it some flexibility across different lighting conditions.

Storage is handled via SD and SDHC cards, both widely available and affordable formats. The body is constructed from plastic and weighs just 140g, with dimensions of 93 x 60 x 21.9mm — genuinely pocketable by any measure.
