Fuji FinePix X-S1

Experience the amazingly bright and clear picture for entire shooting range, from 24mm wide to 26x 624mm zoom with high precision Fujinon lens.

F2.8-5.6 Fujinon Optical 26x Zoom Lens (24-624mm)

Extensive Focal Length Range (24mm-624mm) and Bright F-values (F2.8-F5.6): 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.

4 Aspherical Lenses: By using 4 high-performance aspherical lenses, the X-S1 delivers sharp image quality with rich resolution. These lenses also contribute to a more compact overall lens configuration and the X-S1's compact body size ensuring you can easily take it everywhere with you.

ED Lens 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.

Super EBC: All the lens elements used in the X-S1 have been treated with multilayer Super EBC (Electron Beam Coating), the same process used for Fujinon broadcasting video lenses and large-format camera lenses acclaimed by professionals. Reducing ghosting and lens flare, the treatment promises clear image quality.

Versatile Shooting Style

Optimized for exquisite detail all the way to the edge of the image.

The FUJINON Lens and the EXR CMOS Sensor are the cutting edge of original FUJIFILM high-performance technology. These key devices have not only been adopted in the new X-S1, but also thoroughly optimized for each other, resulting in a synergy that produces high-resolution photos with exceptional resolution from the center to the edge of the image with extremely few aberrations.

OIS Mechanism

Complete control of the camera, without fear of camera shake. Equipped with a newly developed image stabilization mechanism, X-S1 effectively compensates for camera shake even when you press the shutter to capture a subject at extreme zoom.

Metal Lens Barrel

Fast and precise zoom control for the wide photographic range of X-S1.

X-S1 embodies operability that lets you fine tune every shot to perfection. In the easy-to-hold slim zoom lens barrel, the metal cam-driven zoom mechanism delivers a subtle sensation of torque for smooth and precise adjustment.

Soft and Beautiful “Bokeh” Effect

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.

Sensor and Processor

12 megapixel 2/3-inch EXR CMOS Sensor: 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.

EXR Processor

Working in tandem with the 2/3-inch EXR CMOS sensor, the EXR Processor achieves a new level of performance. Tapping into the power of its two CPUs, EXR Core and a reconfigurable processor, it provides powerful and speedy processing, even Full HD Movie and high-speed continuous shooting.

Super High Quality Full HD Movies

Able to capture both photos and movies in high-definition 16:9 format, the X-S1 lets you discover the impact of full-screen HDTV image display.

Clear Full HD Movies Even in Low Lighting: This single unit is capable of capturing video in a broad focal length range from wide angle to telephoto.

You can also use manual focus or capture still images during video recording for full-fledged filming pleasure.

HD Image Viewing: Connect X-S1 directly to a high definition TV using the optional HDMI cable to view your video easily on large screen.

You can also connect the unit to an external stereo microphone to achieve stereo recording.

High Speed Auto Focus

Faster response for fleeting moments. Fast 0.18sec. auto focus, 0.01sec. near-instant shutter time lag and the fast 0.6sec*. camera startup! Every facet of operation is accelerated so you will never miss a shot.

* When using QUICK START MODE.

Electronic Viewfinder (EVF) - 100% Coverage 1.44 million Dots of High Definition Quality

Large High-performance EVF Displays the Scene in Bright Beautiful Detail: 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.

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.

Electronic Viewfinder with Eye Sensor: Put your eye to the EVF and Eye Sensor automatically switches display from the LCD to the highly responsive viewfinder.

3.0-inch Tilting LCD Screen

Compose shots at even the most difficult angles with this useful tilting 460,000 dots of resolution, LCD screen.

The monitor features the monitor sunlight mode for improved viewability even under bright sunlight outdoors.

Press and hold the "EVF/LCD" button at the back of the camera down for a few seconds to activate this mode.

Intelligent Digital Zoom

Digitally Double Your Zoom and Still Enjoy Excellent Resolution. For telephoto shots beyond the 26x optical zoom range, Intelligent Digital Zoom doubles your zoom to the equivalent of 52x zoom and delivers excellent sharpness and detail.

RAW Functions

In-camera RAW Converter: The X-S1's built-in RAW data converter lets you view and edit your results without the need for your PC. The conversion of RAW data not only takes into account exposure compensation, white balance and other in-camera image quality control settings, but also lets the user apply Film Simulation modes in the converter mode.

Special X-S1 RAW Conversion Software Included: For the management, viewing and converting of RAW image data on your PC, you will find SILKYPIX® viewer and RAW conversion software included. The special X-S1 version of this software ensures versatility and ease of use, plus movie playback functionality.
