Fujifilm FinePix S200EXR Digital Camera Product Description
Real Photo Technology
A fused technology gained over Fujifilm's long years in photography with the newly developed Super CCD EXR sensor at its heart working in tandem with Fujinon lens and EXR Processor.
The Technology Behind Real Photo
An evolutionary leap into a fusion of technologies. With the newly developed Super CCD EXR sensor working in tandem with high-resolution Fujinon lenses and powerful Real Photo Processor EXR technology, pioneering into a new dimension in image quality for you to capture the moments as your eye sees it.
Extreme Sensor - Super CCD EXR
A new arrangement of the color filter mosaic provides more image data than conventional arrays. Combined with new 3-way Capture Technology, the result is a single sensor that can operate in three modes: high resolution, wide dynamic range, or high sensitivity and low noise.
Superb Resolution - Fujinon Lens
The 14.3x zoom lens designed for the S200EXR / S205EXR comprises 13 elements in 10 groups including aspherical and low-dispersion glass elements. The aspherical elements ensure low distortion and superior light-gathering abilities, for outstanding performance despite the relatively small number of elements.
The low-dispersion glass elements meanwhile minimize the optical aberrations that cause color smearing and fringing when shooting at longer focal lengths. The result is high resolution and outstanding overall imaging performance throughout the entire zoom range. A number of the elements also employ multi-coating technology to reduce reflections, minimizing ghosting and flare.
Image Processing for Full EXR Image Quality
To achieve true image quality, the S200EXR / S205EXR processor employs an advanced electric charge to control the output from the Super CCD EXR sensor. This simultaneously minimizes all forms of noise while allowing more natural colors, higher resolution, and quicker processing. This technology also makes possible rapid continuous shooting and the new Multi Frame technology that allows the S200EXR / S205EXR to automatically align a number of separate exposures into one image.
Super CCD EXR Sensor
Even closer to the human eye than you imagined. The award-winning switchable EXR sensor delivers optimal results for high resolution, high contrast, and low-light photography.
3-way Capture Technology
The Super CCD EXR provides superior picture quality, enabling a “3-in-1” sensor combination of Fine Capture Technology (High Resolution), Pixel Fusion Technology (High Sensitivity & Low Noise), and Dual Capture Technology (Wide Dynamic Range). With an innovative color filter array and image processing technology, the EXR ensures an advanced reproduction in imaging with exceptionally balanced quality.
EXR Priority - Extreme Creativity
With EXR Priority, you can manually switch the sensor to one of three capture modes. Just like your eye prioritizes different functions for optimal viewing of different scenes, each EXR mode uses a different approach to change how the sensor captures the image.
High Resolution
Just as your eye sees the finest detail in bright conditions, Resolution Priority uses the full 12 megapixel resolution of the unique EXR array to reproduce the smallest detail in bright beautiful color.
Wide Dynamic Range
Just as your eye sees the full range of shadows to highlights in high-contrast scenes, D-range Priority simultaneously captures two images to produce a single image with Wide Dynamic Range up to 800%, revealing subtleties in shadow and eliminating washout of the bright areas.
High Sensitivity and Low Noise
Just as your eye strives to make dark scenes as bright and detailed as possible, High ISO & Low Noise Priority takes advantage of high sensitivity and FinePix's original pixel binning technology to capture the subject with exceptional brightness and minimal noise.
EXR AUTO - Extreme Point-and-Shoot
Capture image just as your eye sees it. The EXR AUTO not only automatically recognizes the scene and selects the ideal shooting mode, but also switches the sensor to the perfect capture mode for the conditions.
Inspiration through Lens & EXR Processor
With high resolution and expressive imaging abilities, the Fujinon lenses and the next generation EXR Processor outfitted in the S200EXR will lead you to another level of imaging performance.
A Zoom in to the Lens
14.3x Optical Zoom Lens
Specifically designed to deliver maximum image quality to the Super CCD EXR sensor, the 14.3x zoom lens offers a massive range from 30.5mm wide angle to 436mm telephoto (35mm camera equivalents).
Wide Angle 14.3x Optical Zoom .1cm Super Macro
Sets an accurate focus moving in as close as approx. 1cm (0.4-inch). Impressive full-frame close-ups can be taken.
Lens-shift Image Stabilization
To minimize the effect of camera shake, especially at longer focal lengths, a lens-shift image stabilization system is incorporated. The sensor automatically detects small movements of the camera and then corrects them by shifting the lens group in the optical path. This system allows vibration-free handheld shooting at slower shutter speeds than normally possible.
Image Processing Function of Multi Frame Composition
With the new Multi Frame feature, just press the shutter once and the camera automatically takes a rapid series of exposures *1, analyzes them, and then aligns them to produce a single frame. In this camera, the Multi Frame technology plays a role in two new shooting modes.
*1 For proper operation of the new modes, the camera and the subject must remain stationary during the series of exposures.
Pro Focus Mode
This focus-bracketing mode emulates the gentle, out-of-focus background look of a DSLR when shooting portraits or macro subjects. A single press of the shutter first takes an exposure focused on the main subject, then additional exposures at different focus points *2. This produces a final image emphasizing the sharply focused subject against a soft, out-of-focus background *3.
*2 There must be sufficient distance between the subject and the background for this function to work properly.
*3 Except for subjects where focus bracketing is unable to produce sufficient defocus.
Conventional Digital Camera FinePix S200EXR / S205EXR .Pro Low-light Mode
Ideal for shooting non-moving subjects in low light, this mode automatically takes a series of four high-sensitivity & low-noise exposures and then combines them into an image with less noise than the single exposures.
The result is a new level of image clarity at high ISOs.
Unlimited Creativity of Imaging
Create your distinctive styles of high-level photography.
Manual Functions
A full range of custom manual image settings including sharpness, color, and tone that let you adjust the look of your photos in your own taste.
New Noise Reduction Control
Gives you a choice of three levels of noise reduction: Normal, for standard noise reduction; Hard, for maximum suppression of noise; and Soft, when resolution is a priority.
High-speed, High-precision AF Modes for All Situations
The AF modes offer high-speed, high-precision focusing even for subjects in low light with increased AF sensitivity. Now with four focus modes that are suitable for all conditions and intentions, you can focus accurately with your targeted framing through single AF, continuous AF, manual focus and one-push AF (for manual focus).
Shutter Speeds to 1/4000 second to 30 seconds
The S200EXR / S205EXR gives you a choice of shutter speeds from 1/4000 second to 30 seconds, all with a shutter lag of no more than approximately 0.01 seconds. You also have access to a wide range of ISO sensitivities, as well as an aperture range of f/2.8 - f/11 in 1/3EV increments.
