Fuji Film XF1 12-Megapixel Digital Camera - Black Review

Stylish design StyleMeticulous attention to ease-of-use and the best choice of materials produces a stylish high-end design for the XF1. The aluminum body is both light and durable while a synthetic leather covering reproduces the feel of genuine leather while ensuring an improved grip. The XF1 comes in a choice of three very appealing colors: Black Red and Brown. Unlike anything offered by power zoom the twisting mechanical zoom ring offers a traditional zooming style by turning ring. The camera is powered on by the turning ring like the X10. While the camera is not used the ring can be pushed off into the body to minimize camera size for aiding portability. Stunning results in low light with f/1.8 lens The XF1's fast f/1.8 lens allows poorly-lit subjects to be photographed without raising sensitivity levels keeping noise to a minimum. The slim-line lens achieves its aperture of f/1.8 with a construction that features 7 lens elements in 6 groups (four aspherical and three extra low dispersion) the first with a highly variable profile and a high refractive index and the second an aspherical element with an extremely high refractive index. All elements are subjected to FUJINON's unique Wide-band High Transmittance Electron Beam Coating process (developed for FUJINON broadcast-use lenses) reducing ghosting and flare for crisp results in even the most difficult conditions. Featuring a unique Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) mechanism that shifts one group of four lens elements to reduce blur while avoiding color shading and lost resolution at the edges of the image the XF1 will ensure that noise levels are minimized to produce clear low-light photographs. Other features include Macro photography at ranges as close as 3cm and also the opportunity to capture images using the beautiful `Bokeh` depth of field effect (for crisp subjects set against out-of-focus backgrounds) by taking advantage of the XF1's fast lens and six diaphragm blades. Premium high image quality with a larger 2/3-inch EXR CMOS sensor Everyone can take full advantage of the superb image taking potential of the XF1 by using Fujifilm's premium EXR Auto mode the technology takes charge and selects the optimum settings (from 103 patterns according to the scene's demands) making extremely high photo quality easy to achieve with almost any subject whatever your ability! Adjustable sensor controls are still on offer for the more advanced photographer. The 2/3-inch 12 million pixel EXR-CMOS sensor features Fujifilm's three switchable sensor modes (SN - high ISO and low noise DR dynamic-range and HR resolution) which can be selected according to the subject for bright sharp images. Fast AF in even dark scene with EXR processor With its EXR-CMOS sensor and EXR processor the XF1 camera offers fast Auto Focus no matter what you're shooting even in dark scene. The speedy read time of the CMOS sensor coupled with the high-speed EXR processor accelerates all operations; quick response start-up in just 0.55 seconds focus acquisition in as little as 0.16 seconds and minimum shot-to-shot time of just 0.8 seconds. Additionally the EXR processor offers high-speed processing for hassle-free HD movie recording and burst-mode photography. Manual 4X zoom lens (25mm-100mm*)Newly developed for the XF1 the wide-angle f/1.8 lens features a manual 4x optical zoom (25mm-100mm*) operated simply by twisting the zoom ring. This offers the photographer a traditional zooming style for quickly compose shots for pleasure and stress-free framing; unlike anything offered by power zoom. Manual feeling with new GUIA rich assortment of multi-function controls is available to those who prefer adjusting camera settings manually. The camera is equipped with a main command dial that simplifies the task of altering the shutter speed and aperture while up to 6 frequently-used settings can be assigned to the Expanded-function button as desired allowing the photographer to capture.
