6 May, 2013 – Fuji X100s Review

06 May

One of the most innovative new cameras of the past few years was the Fuji X100. Fujifilm has now updated the line with the new X100s, and Nick Devlin falls in love once again.

Leaf Shutter + ND + Flash: A Fuji X100s Daylight Primer

01 May

Right about now I feel like Alice in Wonderland, holding the "drink me" cup. Having a leaf shutter, a built-in 3-stop neutral density filter and a real chip in a compact camera is opening up a whole new world of possibilities.

But with these possibilities come some quirks, some compromises and a few technical things to be mindful of. What you need to know about leaf-shutter compacts and daylight flash, below.

Studio comparison pages added to Fujifilm X100S Preview

28 Mar

We’ve just added three pages of studio test data to our preview of the Fujifilm X100S, following the publication of a gallery of real-world samples, last week. The X100S is the successor to the popular X100, and offers a fixed 35mm (equiv.) F2 lens, and a version of Fujifilm’s APS-C format X-Trans sensor with hybrid phase-detection AF. A host of other, smaller improvements should make the X100S a considerably more appealing camera than its predecessor. Click through for a link to the updated preview to see for yourself how it compares to its peers in our studio.

In-Depth: The New Fujifilm X100s

22 Mar

Those of you who follow on other channels—Flickr, Twitter, G Plus—know I have been getting acquainted with the new Fuji X100s for the past few weeks. Seen above, I have purposely gaffed mine up and trashed the shade to make it look not worth stealing (and otherwise less noticeable) when I travel with it.

Reader's Digest Version: It's a remarkable, sync-at-any-speed camera with a no-apologies 16mp chip. I'll probably make more pictures with this camera over the next year than all of my other cameras combined.

Why, below.

Screen_Shot_2013-03-18_at_2.05.11_PM.png

We’ve just added a 39-image sample gallery to our preview of the Fujifilm X100S. The X100S is the sucessor to the X100, one of our favorite cameras of the past couple of years, but one that was not without its share of quirks. The X100S features a new 16MP X-TRANS sensor, a hybrid AF system with on-sensor phase-detection autofocus and numerous operational improvements. We previewed the new camera earlier this year and we’ll be adding more content to that as we work towards a full review but for now, click through for a link to our gallery of real-world samples.

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.

Fujifilm X100S Digital Split Image focus – how it works

11 Jan

fujifilm_x100s.png

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.

fujifilm_x100s.png

Fujifilm has announced the X100S – a significantly enhanced replacement for its X100 large sensor, fixed-lens compact camera. The X100S retains its predecessor’s classic styling but has been extensively re-worked inside, with a 16MP X-Trans sensor that includes on-chip phase-detection elements (a technology first utilized by Fujifilm), and a higher-resolution LCD in its Hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder. A faster ‘EXR II’ processor, along with the on-chip AF information help Fujifilm offer what it says is the world’s fastest AF. The X100S backs-up its rangefinder-esque looks with a digital split-image manual focus system, allowing fast manual focusing. A great many fine details of the camera have also been enhanced – we look in greater detail in our hands-on preview article.
