NEW FUJINON LENS EXR TECHNOLOGY
Extensive focal length range (24mm~624mm
＊
)
and bright F-values (F2.8-F5.6) 12-Megapixel 2/3-inch EXR CMOS sensor
Featuring a 12-group, 17- element lens
configuration, the manual optical 26x zoom is a
masterpiece of FUJINON technology. The
extravagant adoption of high optical performance
glass lens elements (aspherical, high refractive index,
and ED glass lenses) make the exceptional brightness
of F2.8 at wide angle and F5.6 at telephoto possible.
Only the EXR CMOS sensor can intelligently
switch between three original technologies
depending on the scene and always capture the
moment in exquisite detail and with
impressive image quality. Featuring
FUJIFILM’s bespoke pixel array, the large
2/3-inch EXR CMOS sensor captures images
with impressive resolution.
High image quality ensured
by effective “camera shake”
correction.
ED Lenses for prevention of chromatic
aberrations and muddy colors.
In order to minimize chromatic aberration which tends to occur when
taking telephoto shots with a long zoom lens, two ED lenses made of
extra-low dispersion glass have been adopted in the lens configuration.
Adoption of one large-diameter ED lens in the first lens group reduces
axial chromatic aberration that can occur at high zoom settings.
Optimization of the
Sensor and Lens
Sufficient light quantity is
collected not only in the
center of the sensor, but all
the way to the edge by
optimization of both the
image sensor and lens.
Responding to lighting, distance and other
conditions, the EXR CMOS sensor automatically
switches to the optimum capture technology.
Super EBC for High Image Quality
with Exceptional Clarity
Faster response for
fleeting moments
Lens elements have been treated with FUJINON’s
originally developed multilayer Super EBC
(Electron Beam Coating), a process that reduces
ghosting and lens flare, and delivers superb clarity
even under severe shooting conditions.
9-blade aperture diaphragm for
an expressive “bokeh” effect
Special attention has been paid to enabling a
beautiful “bokeh” effect. The 9-blade aperture
diaphragm lets you artistically put the focus on
your subject while creating a softly defocused
near-circular background.
Fast 0.18 sec. auto focus, 0.01-sec. near-instant
shutter time lag and fast 0.6 sec. camera
startup. Every facet of operation is accelerated
so you will never miss a shot.
Explore Photographic Expression
with FUJIFILM's Film Simulation Modes
Faithfully reproducing the distinctive colours and qualities of
FUJIFILM films loved by professional photographers, Film Simulation
also lets you select from various Black & White modes.
12 Megapixel High-speed
Continuous Shooting
High-speed continuous shooting lets you
capture moving subjects and other action
scenes at 7 frames per second at the full
12-megapixel resolution (L-size). Set the
resolution 6 megapixels (M-size) for even faster
shooting at a maximum of 10 frames per second.
High quality Full HD movie
Capture all the action in full 1080p HD (30fps/H.264 High
Profile). Use the manual focus to add the professional
touch of depth-of-field shifts, blur-out fades and other
special effects to your movie. While shooting movies, you
can also use manual focus for a creative touch or capture
still photos without interrupting movie shooting.
ELECTRONIC VIEWFINDER[EVF]
Framing and composing shots while viewing the large 0.47-inch screen with
1,440,000-dot resolution in the X-S1 electronic viewfinder is a true
pleasure. The image projected by the bright LCD panel is clearly carried to
your eye with high fidelity through 2 glass lens elements and 1 aspherical lens.
The EVF boasts a wide 26° field of vision and brightness.
Large High-performance EVF displays
the scene in bright beautiful detail
Even at telephoto, what you see in the viewfinder is what you get in your photo.
The unique advantage of EVF is its ability to give you an accurate depiction of what the final image will look like. Depth of field, colour temperature,
colour mode and other desired image quality settings are reflected in the image displayed in the viewfinder without the influence of the lens F-value
so you can compose the image without guesswork. The final photo reflects exactly what you aimed to create in the viewfinder.
EXR Processor taps the full potential of the lens and sensor
Processing the vast amounts of image signal data captured by the
FUJINON lens and EXR CMOS sensor with precision at high speed,
FUJIFILM’s originally developed EXR Processor translates the highly
accurate image data into rich photographic expression.
