Fujifilm FinePix AX280, AV100, JV100, JV150, JZ300 and JZ500: Cheap like a budgie

By this point in the week, our information-addled synapses need new cameras to distinguish themselves from one another by either imaginative names, outlandish designs or lurid colour schemes. In launching the AX280, AV100, JV100, JV150, JZ300 and JZ500 compact cameras, Fujifilm has failed on all counts. Thanks, Fujifilm.

What Fujifilm has managed is to make these entry-level compacts super-cheap -- sorry, 'affordable'. The 14-megapixel AX280, pictured above, costs just £100. For your money you get a 5x optical zoom with a very respectable 28mm wide angle, equivalent to a 35mm camera.

Each of the new compacts shoots 720p high-definition video. Click 'Continue' for a quick browse through the new line-up, and see how much -- or rather how little -- damage they'll do to your wallet.
