 Fujifilm X10 photo quality functions : Manufactured from strong, yet lightweight, die-cast magnesium alloy, the new Fujifilm X10 is perfectly designed and adds a real sense of style and glamour to the camera. The Fujifilm X10 is a highly advanced compact camera with specifications that follow in the footsteps of the sought after multi award-winning FinePix X100. The Fujifilm FinePix X10 features a large 12 megapixel 2/3" EXR CMOS image sensor with approximately twice the sensor area, and approximately 2.5x the pixel area, compared to existing Fujifilm camera models.

Fujifilm FinePix X10 image sensor
The 12 Megapixel EXR CMOS sensor integrated in the Fujifilm X10 combines Fujifilm's proprietary EXR technology with CMOS technology to provide bright, sharp images. Thanks to the EXR technology the Fujifilm X10 camera can select the optimum shooting mode from three options:
• SN High Sensitivity and Low Noise mode - produces clear and sharp high-sensitivity images whilst keeping the noise levels low, and is an ideal choice for capturing night scenes.
• DR Wide Dynamic Range mode - delivers a much increased dynamic range (up to 1600%) delivering rich gradations and detail in both the shadows and highlights
• HR High Resolution mode - takes full advantage of the 12 megapixel resolution to reproduce the finest details in landscape and portrait scenes, perfect for use on bright clear days

In terms of ISO settings, the Fujifilm FinePix X10 can capture shots between ISO 100 for well lit conditions and top photo quality, and ultra-high ISO 12800 for the most minimal of lighting conditions. If the correct exposure cannot be obtained with the selected ISO setting, the ISO Auto Setting function adjusts it automatically between 100 and 3200. For those of you that like to experiment, the Fujifilm X10 offers the unique Film Simulation modes, reflecting the company's background in photographic films. Eight setting are available, including Velvia / PROVIA / ASTIA which allow you to reproduce the well-known tones of highly popular color reversal films, as well as Fujifilm X10 expands the scope of photo expression with Monochrome Mode that can be fine-tuned with R / Ye / G filter settings.
Fujifilm X10 white balance
In addition to Auto White Balance, the Fujifilm X10 provides a choice of 9 white balance presets to compensate for the color of different light sources. Users can also set a Custom White Balance using a grey card or other surface, or select the optimum Kelvin value.
Fujifilm X10 shooting modes
The Fujifilm X10 not only offers "EXR Auto" intelligent scene recognition (which adjusts camera settings to suit sunsets, blue skies, greenery, beaches, snow, etc.), and also detects people and identifies difficult to photograph backlight conditions, but even offers the ability to detect subject movements. The intelligent EXR CMOS Sensor automatically selects the optimum shooting mode from of a total of 99 different variations, this enables the Fujifilm X10 to capture any kind of scene perfectly in even the most difficult shooting conditions.
Fujifilm X10 photo settings
The Fujifilm X10 also features detailed photo adjustability settings with options including “Color” to adjust color strength, “Highlight Tone” / “Shadow Tone” to adjust contrast in highlight / shadow sections, and “Sharpness” to sharpen or soften pixel edges. Finally there is a Noise Reduction Adjustment function to set the strength of noise reduction at five different levels according to the users' emphasis on whether to prioritise high resolution or low noise. |
