Description — Fujifilm X20
The Fujifilm X20 is a compact point-and-shoot camera designed for enthusiasts who want meaningful control in a portable package. At its core is a 12MP sensor with a 1/2-inch format, processed by the EXR Processor II engine. The ISO range spans 100 to 12800, and the camera's Hybrid (Phase + Contrast) autofocus system — complemented by a manual focus ring — keeps shooting responsive and flexible.
A 12fps burst mode makes it well-suited to capturing fast-moving subjects. The lens-based image stabilization helps ensure sharper results when shooting handheld. Three film simulation profiles — Provia, Velvia, and Astia — let you shape the look of your images in-camera.
The optical viewfinder with digital overlay refreshes at 60Hz and covers 85% of the frame, while the 2.8-inch, 460k-dot LCD provides a clear rear display option. Video records at up to 1080p at 60fps or 30fps. The metal body measures 117 x 69.6 x 56.8 mm and weighs 353g, with storage via SD, SDHC, and SDXC cards.
