Fujifilm A150 is basic, but in a good way

The 10-megapixel A150 digital camera has all the makings of a very basic ultracompact including Face Detection technology, a 3x optical zoom, and large 3-inch LCD.

The Fujifilm A150's only real hook is that it's cheap inexpensive. The 10-megapixel camera has all the basics you'd expect for a $129.95 model, though, including a 3.0x optical zoom, electronic image stabilization, and a smattering of scene-specific shooting modes with power supplied by AA batteries.

What's nice to see is a larger-than-usual 3-inch LCD (made specifically for the A150 with 230,000-pixel resolution) and face detection. The A150 is also quite compact at 3.6 inches wide by 2.4 inches high by 0.85 inch thick.

Here's a full specification sheet so you can see just how much (or little for you glass-half-empty types) this camera will offer when it's in stores later this month.
