OverviewFujifilm S5 Pro

The Fujifilm FinePix S5 Pro is an APS-C DSLR camera built around a 12MP sensor powered by Fujifilm's Real Photo Processor Pro image processor. It offers a maximum photo resolution of 4256x2848 pixels and supports a burst mode of up to 3 frames per second, making it a capable choice for portrait and event photographers who need reliable, consistent output. The ISO range runs from 100 to 3200, providing flexibility across a range of lighting conditions.

Autofocus is handled by an 11-point phase detection system, giving photographers solid subject acquisition without relying on eye or subject tracking. One of the camera's standout features is its extensive selection of color profiles, including Standard, F1 Portrait, F1a Portrait Enhanced, F2 Studio Portrait, F3 Landscape, F4 Velvia, B&W, and Custom — giving shooters significant in-camera creative control over the look of their images. The body is constructed from magnesium alloy and is weather sealed, measuring 147 x 113 x 74 mm and weighing 920g.

A 2.5-inch TFT LCD with 230,000-dot resolution and an optical pentaprism viewfinder are on board. The camera stores images to CompactFlash media and is powered by a Fujifilm NP-150 Lithium-Ion battery rated for approximately 400 shots per charge. It also features a built-in pop-up flash with i-TTL compatibility, a hot shoe, sync terminal, and flash sync up to 1/250s.
