Description

APS-C 16M "X-Trans CMOS"
Developed to take advantage of the exceptional resolution of the XF lens, a revolutionary new sensor inspired by film.

X-Trans CMOS
Moiré is tackled at its root cause by the innovative color filter array of the new sensor. By enhancing the aperiodicity (randomness) in the array arrangement, the color filter minimizes the generation of moire and false colors, eliminating the necessity for an optical low-pass filter in the lens and enabling the sensor to capture the full "unfiltered" resolution and descriptive quality of the XF lens.

Newly-Developed Color Filter Array
the new filter changes the rules of digital photography. Without using an optical low-pass filter, moiré and false colors are eliminated, but high resolution is maintained.

The high aperiodicity (randomness) of the arrangement of pixels in 6x6 sets reduces the occurrence of moire. Also the presence of an R, B and B pixel in every vertical and horizontal pixel series minimizes the generation of false colors and delivers higher color reproduction fidelity.

XF Lens
Designed especially for the X-Pro1, the FUJINON XF Lens series promises enhanced resolution and light volume in image edge areas as well as reduced chromatic aberration for exceptional image quality. Featuring an all-glass aspherical lens and other elements, the lens is polished to perfection and treated with Super EBC coating. Holding the high-quality metal barrel and operating the precision-machined 1/3-step aperture ring is a sensation that fires the desire to capture every scene. For photographers who seek the peak of photographic excellence, FUJIFILM raises the curtain on a new era of interchangeable lenses and unveils a premium lineup of 3 single-focal length lenses.

Hybrid Multi Viewfinder
Featuring the freedom to switch between an optical and electronic viewfinder, the Hybrid Viewfinder has evolved to meet the challenge of interchangeable lenses. When an XF series lens is mounted, lens data are communicated to X-Pro1, and viewfinder magnification (2 types) and frame size (multiple steps) are automatically switched. Peering through the viewfinder with all your attention focused on the subject. This simple style of shooting is the both the first step back to the essential pleasure of photography. Every lens change reveals a new world of beauty to capture.

High Performance LCD Monitor
Approx. 1,230,000 Dots of High Resolution. Special Coating with Surface Reflectivity Under 0.2%*
Boasting a special anti-reflective coating (surface reflectivity of under 0.2%*), the superior LCD features high water repellency, a stain-resistant acrylic film and superb anti-glare performance for comfortable composition and confirmation of shots even under bright sunlight.

Q (Quick Menu) Button for Fast Shooting Menu Settings
Skip directly to frequently used shooting menus with the Q (Quick Menu) button. ISO sensitivity setting, White Balance, Film Simulation and other frequently used shooting settings are displayed in a list. Just use the 4-way controller to select the item and the command dial to change settings for speedy operation while shooting.

Swift Menu Page Selection and Scroll-free Navigation Within Each Page
In the Shooting and Playback menu, functions are organized into tabbed single-page screens for fast selection and setting. Just select a tab and find the item in the displayed list without scrolling.

In-camera RAW Converter
The built-in RAW data converter lets you view results in the field without first transferring the data to a PC. This easy-to-use feature not only takes into account exposure compensation, white balance and other in-camera image quality settings, but also lets you apply Film Simulation modes in the converter mode.

Focusing

• Selectable AF with a 49-point Metering Matrix
  Within the screen, the auto focus area is divided into a 49-point matrix (25 points in the case of OVF). AF accurately and swiftly recognizes the primary subject and brings it into crystal clear focus, and also lets you freely select the position of the AF frame. When using the EVF and LCD, you can also change the AF frame size and pinpoint the focusing.
• 0.05-sec Shutter Time Lag Even Shooting with the EVF
  Even in Live View, shutter time lag is only 0.05 sec so you can capture that exact instant and enjoy a comfortable shooting experience.
• High-speed Auto Focus Achieved by Lens-Sensor Synergy
  XF lens focusing is driven by a fast "DC coreless motor". Accelerated by the combination of the high-speed signal readout of the X-Trans CMOS sensor and the newly developed EXR Processor, the improved contrast detection AF in X-Pro1 makes a huge leap in speed and precision, bringing your subject in to sharp focus in as little as 0.1 sec*.

• 2 Manual Focusing Methods
  In the viewfinder, the distance index bar is displayed together with the depth of field scale and aperture value, providing helpful guides for focusing. You can also adjust focus by rotating the focus ring while checking the image in Live View and using the one-touch Focus Point Zoom to confirm a sharp focus.
• AF Assist Lamp for Low-Light Scenes
  In low-light settings where even the subject is hard to see through the viewfinder, the AF Assist Lamp illuminates the subject and assists Auto Focus.

White Balance Setting

• Color Temperature (Kelvin Value) Setting
  Compensate for the color of different light sources with a choice of 9 white balance presets in addition to Auto White Balance. You can also make custom white balance settings using a gray card or other surface, or select the optimum color temperature (Kelvin value).
• Precise White Balance Setting
  Fine tune white balance by adjusting R (red) <-> Cy (cyan) and B (blue) <-> Ye (yellow) in ±9 steps while viewing the through-the-lens image. You can make adjustments and confirm their affect on the actual image while shooting. It is ideal for precise correction of white balance or exploration of the creative effects that can be achieved with filters.

Image Quality Control

• Color, Tone & Sharpness Adjustment
  Fine-tune image quality with "Color" for color saturation adjustment, "Highlight Tone" and "Shadow Tone" for tweaking contrast in highlights and shadows, and "Sharpness" to stress or soften image outlines. With this built-in detailed image quality control, you can produce an image that precisely matches your creative objective.
• 2 Color Space Types
  Select either sRGB for a standard range of color reproduction on general displays or Adobe RGB® for its broader color rendition depending on how you intend to output and use the image.
• Noise Reduction Control
  Choose from 5 different levels of noise reduction depending on whether your priority is the crispness of resolution or keeping noise reduction to a minimum, and explore the capability to tune sensitivity-related textural quality when shooting high-sensitivity scenes.

6fps High Speed Continuous Shooting
Shoot up to 6 frames per second with high-speed continuous shooting. Capture a series of exposures of moving subjects and other challenging photographic scenes and later select the best shot.

Motion Panorama - Capture Panorama Shots and Show Them in Stunning Large-size Prints
Just sweep the camera across the scene, and X-Pro1 captures multiple images and seamlessly stitches them together into a single panorama photo. Even when enlarged to an A3-size print, there is virtually no loss of resolution. Holding the camera horizontally or vertically or horizontally, Motion Panorama lets you shoot the scene with an "S" or "L" angle of view.

HD Movie - Premium Quality Movies
Capture the action in Full HD movies (1920 x 1080, 24fps, max. clip length : 29 minutes). In addition to full AUTO exposure, you can also shoot with aperture priority AE. Taking full advantage of the bright XF lenses, you can also capture movies with a beautiful defocused "bokeh" background. Later with plug-and-play ease, you can connect X-Pro1 directly to your TV with a commercially available HDMI cable and share your movies complete with stereo audio on the big screen.
