The Fujifilm FinePix A-series of digital cameras consists of the company's entry-level point and shoot models. The A-series was created in late 2001 and was expanded a few years later when Fujifilm transitioned to a fully alphanumeric system of naming their digital cameras.

The first A-series models were the 1.3-megapixel A101 and 2-megapixel A201, released in late 2001. The A-series cameras remained extremely basic until the successful FinePix 2600 and FinePix 2650 cameras evolved into the A205 and A210 in 2003. Over 20 models of A-Series cameras have been produced and they have become progressively more sophisticated and smaller while retaining a low price point. As of July 2006, current models range in street price from the base model at USD 110 to the range-topping 6.3-megapixel model at approximately USD 190.

All but the first two A-Series cameras have used the xD-Picture Card flash memory format.
