Product Description
Extreme long zoom, high speed capture and unique features for the ultimate
all in one photographers camera
Serious photographers seeking the versatility and performance of a D-SLR
system without the bulk or expense now have the perfect solution in the shape of
the new Fujifilm FinePix HS10. The latest addition to Fujifilms award-winning
range of big zoom bridge cameras offers an unprecedented feature set that
combines a powerful Fujinon 30x (24-720mm equivalent) manual optical zoom lens
with sophisticated photographic controls, advanced functionality and D-SLR-like
handling in a single compact, affordable unit.
Utilizing cutting-edge Back Side Illumination CMOS capture married to
class-leading Fujinon optical design, the FinePix HS10s unique mix of advanced
technologies brings several new features designed to make achieving
professional-looking pictures easier than ever to the FinePix range, whilst
maintaining Fujifilms legendary image quality and low-light shooting
performance.
Powerful 30x Wide-Telephoto zoom Lens
With a range that would require at least two or three bulky lenses on an SLR to
capture the same zoom capabilities, the FinePix HS10s built-in Fujinon 30x
Wide-Telephoto zoom lens encompasses nearly every photographic requirement in a
single compact unit. Furthermore, because the lens and body on the FinePix HS10
are built as a closed unit, it eliminates the possibility of dust on the image
sensor.
The twist-barrel manual zoom control enables the photographer to make
precision adjustments, and zooming is faster and more accurate than comparable
powered zoom lenses in the same class of camera.
The class-leading Fujinon 30x optical zoom covers a uniquely versatile
24-720mm (equivalent on a 35mm camera) range from true wide-angle to ultra
telephoto. From sweeping landscapes, interiors and large group shots to distant
sports or wildlife action, the FinePix HS10 can handle nearly any photographic
challenge. In addition to the impressive zoom capabilities, the Fujinon lens
ensures optical quality across the entire range. Fujinon lenses are acclaimed
by photographers, broadcasters (as the worlds leading manufacturer of television
camera lenses) and industrial users across the globe. Fujinon lenses are also
used in orbital satellites to capture high-resolution photos of the surface of
the moon.
Triple Image Stabilization
Triple Image Stabilization combines a mechanically stabilized CMOS sensor with
high ISO sensitivities and advanced multi-frame digital stabilization for total
anti-blur protection. Together these technologies reduce the blurring effect of
both handshake and subject movement to provide sharp, clean and clear results
even at the longest zoom settings or in the most challenging lighting
conditions.
High Speed, High Definition
Capturing action with the FinePix HS10 is so easy it feels like cheating.
Whether you're shooting stills or movie clips, the FinePix HS10s cutting-edge
sensor and processing technologies open up a range of high speed capture modes
and unique shooting possibilities.
While shooting sports action or wildlife, or simply trying to keep up with
fast-moving children, the FinePix HS10 will give users an edge with up to 10
frames-per-second of high speed continuous shooting at the maximum 10-MegaPixel
setting. The FinePix HS10s unique Best Frame Capture Mode means users don't need
the reactions of a pro sports photographer to get professional results either;
in this mode the camera continuously records images from the moment the focus is
activated, then saves up to seven shots captured before the shutter button is
released.
The FinePix HS10 also features a full HD movie mode (1080i) with stereo
sound, and the cameras mini HDMI output allows users to easily display ultra
clear high definition photographs and movies on high definition televisions. A
new Super High Speed Movie function can freeze action and capture breathtaking
movies at up to 1000 frames per second for amazing slow-motion movies that
reveal the hidden world of events that normally occur in the blink of an eye.
Advanced modes, limitless expression
The FinePix HS10 boasts several unique features and modes designed to expand
shooting possibilities and to take the work out of creating genuinely
eye-catching images.
Motion Remover Mode
Remove moving subjects from your shots. This mode captures 5 images of a
scene in quick succession; the five images are then analyzed and combined
in-camera to produce a single image*2 where anything moving in the scene has
magically disappeared. Never before has capturing postcard-quality shots of
tourist traps " without the tourists " been so easy.
Multi-Motion Capture Mode
Previously only possible with highly specialized equipment (and more than a
dash of time, skill and luck), this mode captures up to 5 images of a moving
subject in rapid succession and combines them into a single composite image
containing multiple sharply-captured views of the subject motion.
Pro Low Light mode
Combines high and low ISO exposures of the scene being photographed to
reduce blur caused by camera shake without significantly increasing image noise.
The FinePix HS10 also sports the remarkable Pro Low Light mode, first seen on
the FinePix S200EXR, which combines several exposures into a single image for
ultra-low noise output in low light.
Motion Panorama Mode
Captures an ultra-wide panoramic view in a single sweeping shot. As you
swing the camera (left/right or up/down) the FinePix HS10 captures a series of
shots in rapid succession. The shots are then stitched in-camera to produce a
seamless panorama.
Setting new standards for low light performance
Thanks to Fujifilms award-winning sensor and processing technologies FinePix
cameras have become market leaders in low-light performance, setting the
standard for high sensitivity, low noise results in the most challenging
shooting conditions. The FinePix HS10s back side illumination CMOS sensor
continues this tradition with an innovative new design that significantly
increases the light gathering ability of every pixel, resulting in a 200%
increase in sensitivity over a conventional CMOS sensor. Combined with Fujifilms
image processing expertise the new sensor produces stunning richly detailed low
noise images, even when shooting in very low light.
The improved sensitivity isn't just for taking noise-free photographs at night:
it also allows the use of high shutter speeds in daylight required when shooting
at telephoto end of the FinePix HS10s 30x zoom, or when attempting to capture
fast-moving subjects. Photographers no longer need to worry about blurred
pictures with such a long telephoto as they can rely on the FinePix HS10 to
produce clear, sharp output even at higher ISO settings.
A true photographers camera
As well as a range of advanced automatic functions " including Fujifilms
acclaimed SR Auto mode - and scene modes designed to produce perfect point and
shoot results, the FinePix HS10 sports a full complement of sophisticated of
manual and semi-automatic shooting modes and photographic controls. The
extensive external controls give the more advanced photographer direct access to
virtually every control they will need for uninterrupted shooting, and the body
includes dedicated buttons for key functions such as ISO, white balance, focus
and metering.
The large command dial, manual focus ring, twist and zoom lens barrel, bright,
clear electronic viewfinder, high quality tilting LCD screen and deep hand grip
ensure the FinePix HS10 handles at least as well as a digital SLR, despite its
compact dimensions. AA batteries provide excellent performance (up to 700 shots
per charge when using NiMh cells) combined with the convenience of a universally
available format when shooting for extended periods away from mains power. |
