FUJIFILM X100V Mirrorless Digital Camera with 23mm f/2 Lens (Silver)

FUJIFILM X100V Overview

Versatile, volant, and viable, the silver FUJIFILM X100V is the fifth generation of the X100 series, blending impressive imaging capabilities, a distinct design with an apt prime wide-angle lens, and a flexible feature-set to suit an array of shooting needs. Utilizing a proven and well-regarded APS-C-format 26.1MP X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor, the X100V is capable of high-resolution recording along with support for DCI/UHD 4K video, sensitivity from ISO 160-12800, and continuous shooting up to 11 fps with the mechanical shutter. The BSI design of the sensor affords reduced noise and greater overall clarity, and is paired with the X-Processor 4 to achieve fast performance and improved responsiveness. The sensor's design also enables a hybrid autofocus system that combines 425 phase-detection points with a contrast-detection system for quick and accurate AF performance.

26.1MP APS-C X-Trans BSI CMOS 4 Sensor and X-Processor 4

Revolving around a highly versatile sensor, the X100V features an APS-C-format 26.1MP X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor, which has a back-illuminated design to afford smooth tonal rendering, improved low-light performance, and a wide native sensitivity range of ISO 160-12800. As an X-Trans sensor, it utilizes a randomized pixel array, too, which provides a high degree of image quality and sharpness due to the omission of an optical low-pass filter. Versus conventional pixel patterns, the X-Trans design more closely mimics the organic nature of film in order to produce nuanced colors and tonal transitions, while also reducing moiré and aliasing.

 Body Design

• Tilting 3.0" 1.62m-dot LCD has a touchscreen design for intuitive operation and playback, and the tilting design greatly benefits working from high and low shooting angles.
• Durable design can be made weather-resistant when paired with the optional AR-X100 Adapter Ring and optional weather-sealing protection ring.
• The top plate incorporates a series of locking dials and levers for fast, intuitive control over exposure settings, including a shutter speed dial that offers direct shutter speed adjustment. An ISO dial is also incorporated into the shutter speed dial, for confirming the sensitivity setting without having to turn the camera on and the exposure compensation dial lets you choose +/- 3 EV in 1/3 steps. This dial also has a C position to afford an expanded +/- 5 EV range when working with the command dials.
• Front and rear command dials integrate a push function for easier use and settings selection.

Film Simulation Modes

• Taking advantage of FUJIFILM's vast history in traditional film-based photography, the X100V integrates several Film Simulation modes, which mimic the look and feel of some of FUJIFILM's classic film types:
• Provia—The standard contrast and normal saturation color transparency film
• Velvia—High contrast, high color saturation, and vivid color transparency film
• Astia—Subdued contrast and color saturation with a look that is ideal for portraits
• Classic Chrome—Delivers muted tones and deep color reproduction, similar to a dated slide film
• Classic Neg—Muted contrast but vibrant colors with a vintage filmic feel
• PRO Neg—Available with both Hi and Std. contrast options, this mimics the punchy-but-natural feeling of their professional-grade color negative film
• Eterna—For a cinematic look, this provides a flat color, low saturation look well-suited to post-production color grading
• Acros—Based on the popular B&W film, this monochrome mode has a distinct tonality and graininess and can be used along with yellow, red, and green contrast filter effects
• B&W—Straightforward and classic black and white effect with yellow, red, and green contrast filter options
• Sepia—Everyone's favorite old-timey look mimicking the popular alternative process
