Exactly the same problem as penny on a finepix A205. Tried resetting.Removing batteries and replacing them with fully charged ones.Using the USB cable on the computer.Fitting a new card. Problem has happened after a year without use because a finepix 410 replaced it but that is in Fuji repair shop as it is producing dark photos.Exactly the same problem as penny on a finepix A205.

I have the same problem, It will work in display mode but not in photo mode. It has gradually degraded to this problem. The only way to make it work is to apply 3.6 V to the external power input. Everything will function this way. It seems that something internal is drawing to much current and pulling the battery voltage down below what is required to operate. Does anyone have any idea what has degraded in this camera?

Wow, these cameras work the best with rechargeable type batteries the Alkaline batteries will just die before you get 50 pictures. If you are using the LCD screen all the time it's a power hungry hog and will kill the best of batteries quickly.
You should program the camera to auto shut off in 2 minutes, review time should be about 1 minute and the camera should be in sleep mode or turned off between pictures to conserve as much power as possible.
I use a Fuji S100fs camera a lot for a walk about, documentary, time laps and generally shooting and can get about an hour of continues use from one battery and about 190 frames.
Have you been in a high humidity environment? Did you use the camera in cold weather and then brought it in to a warm room so moisture condensed inside? If the problem keeps recurring, I suspect mold in the camera. If so, repair could be expensive.
I had the same questions. Eventually, after seeing sellers selling the 1GB Olympus type M card as compatible for the A210, I decided to take the chance. I've only used the 1G for a while, but I've seen no problems with it and the A210
When that problem has happen to my Fuji A210 is because the slider that cover the lense has not gone all the way to the right ! I usually move the slider strongly 2 o 3 times to the left and to the right, and then turn the camera on. Fortunately, that trick has worked for me, so I hope it also works for you !!!
Mine shuts off when I press the shutter button. I put in new batteries and I can get the lens in then. But it shuts off when I try to take a picture. These cameras are notorious for having a zoom problem. They say the Zoom error appears and the camera dies. There is a fix of gently pulling the lens out all the way till the cover open then twisting it gently clock wise till it clicks. They say this fixes this problem but I don't think that is what is wrong with mine. Do a search on Fuji E550 zoom problem fix. It should show up.
I recently had trouble with the LCD Display coming up with a black screen. So I mailed it to Fuji with a letter explaining the problem. About 3 weeks later I got it back in the mail and it seem to be working fine until a month later. I turned it on and the LCD display show a black screen only now it has white lines. I'm so incredible mad and extremely dissapointed in Fuji. Reading online I have notice many people having trouble with Fuji Products. I WILL NEVER BUY a Fuji again!!!
Ahhhhh! I have the same problem occuring!! I cleaned all of the battery terminals and replaced the batteries, and STILL have this problem, although not as frequent. It always happens when I take the best pics, the image shows on the screen for a fraction of a second, and then the whole camera shuts off. Again, I can play back images with no problem. What's the deal here?? It's become so frustrating that I just want to throw the camera in the garbage. It has been such a good camera up until this point. PLEASE, someone help us here!!!
