The latest version of Capture One brings support for Fujifilm’s X-Trans sensors – something we noted other software struggled with, when we reviewed the X-Pro 1. Beta versions of the software have caused a lot of excitement for X-Pro1 and X-E1 users finally looking to get the most from their photos. Do the results live up to the expectation? We had a look.

CES 2013: We got a chance to get our hands on a near-to-production example of Fujifilm’s X100S, to fill-in the details we couldn’t cover in our preview. The button layout of the camera is now finalized and the camera’s focus and manual focus systems are fully working (and rather impressive), so read our hands-on article to find out how big a difference that little ‘S’ makes.

The Fujifilm X100S is the latest in a recent rush of cameras to include phase-detection elements on its imaging sensor, giving an AF system that is a hybrid of contrast and phase-detection methods. However, Fujifilm also uses this system to provide a unique and incredibly clever manual focus aid – which could finally allow digital cameras to offer the speed and convenience enjoyed by manual-focus SLR and rangefinder users. Fujifilm UK has posted a video showing ‘Digital Split Image’ focusing and Japanese camera site DCWatch has published details that allow us to show how it works.

Just posted: our hands-on preview of the Fujifilm’s updated enthusiast zoom compact, the X20. Using the same basic design as X10, including its fast 28-112mm equivalent F2-2.8 zoom lens, the X20 uses a completely new sensor, a 2/3″-type version of the X-Trans CMOS design used in the company’s X-system cameras but with adde3d on-chip phase detection AF. It also gains an ‘Advanced Optical Viewfinder’ that’s capable of displaying overlaid exposure information, and a couple of design tweaks to take best advantage of this. In our preview we take a closer look at what the X20 has to offer the enthusiast photographer.

But there’s a whole host of smaller improvements to, which promise to iron out many of the X100’s particular quirks.
