<\/a>So Fujifilm unloaded about seven hundred and forty-two cameras tonight, and the point-and-shoots are pretty universally stacked for the price. Case in point: The AV100 is a 12MP shooter with 720p video capture, priced at $100.<\/p>

The skinny:<\/p>

The AV100 is the lowest of the low-end, with 12MP sensor, 720p video and 3x optical zoom. It's also the cheapest at $100, $10 cheaper than the AX200, which gives you a 5x wide-angle optical zoom for your Hamilton.<\/p>

Then there's the F700EXR, Fuji's new 12MP touchscreen model, with one of them fancy internal 5x periscopic zoom lenses. That EXR lens gives surprisingly good low-light performance, and the 3.5-inch touchscreen lets you tag faces for Facebook, navigate menus, tap on your friend's (or dog's) face to focus, all that kind of stuff. It'll run $280 this March.<\/p>

Ready for more? I hope so, because we are nowhere near finished. Go grab another drink and relax a spell! The J series point and shoot is a step up from the A series I already outlined (this'll all be on the test, you slackers). They're too similar to explain in much detail so here's the rub: Four cameras, priced between $130 and $250, all with metal bodies and rechargeable batteries (the A series is plasticky and AA-run). The best is the JV500, a 14MP shooter with a 10x optical zoom, 2.7-inch LCD, 720p video, and pet detection, because Fuji correctly assumes that you'll be taking lots of pictures of your dog. The JV500 is the most expensive at $250, available in March.<\/p>

Oh, you thought we were done? Sorry, friend, because this camera is pink<\/em> and sassy and has a periscopic lens and altogether looks more expensive than it is. It's got the same lens as that touchscreen F700EXR, but this F70 is only 0.7-inches thick and also features one-touch upload to Facebook or YouTube. It'll run you $150 in February. Now everyone, take a breath. [Fuji<\/a> via CNET<\/a>]<\/p>
