Description — Fujifilm X100S
The Fujifilm X100S is built around a 16MP APS-C sensor processed by the EXR Processor II, delivering stills at a maximum resolution of 4896x3264 pixels. The camera's hybrid autofocus system pairs Phase Detection and Contrast Detection across 49 focus points to lock focus quickly and accurately. Burst shooting reaches 6 frames per second, while the ISO range spans 200 to 6400 natively.
One of the most distinctive aspects of the X100S is its Hybrid (Optical + Electronic) viewfinder, which offers an electronic mode with 2.36 million dots at 60Hz — complemented by a 2.8-inch TFT LCD rear monitor with 460,000 dots. Video recording tops out at 1080p with frame rate options of 60fps, 30fps, 25fps, and 24fps in 8-bit color. Both stills and video share the same five film simulation color profiles: Provia/Standard, Velvia/Vivid, Astia/Soft, Monochrome, and Sepia.
The magnesium alloy body measures 126.5 x 74.4 x 53.9 mm and weighs 445g. A built-in Super Intelligent Flash and hot shoe offer flexible flash options, while external audio input is available via a 2.5mm microphone jack.
