The retro Fujifilm FinePix X100 is toted as a compact camera capable of shooting D-SLR quality photos. Fujifilm studied the market and decided there was a need for a compact high-quality camera as a counterweight to the SLR. The priority of the model: picture quality.
The company decided to take the highest possible quality lens and sensor combination and build from the ground up. The prime F2 lens, made by Fujinon, was made to perfectly fit the 12.3 Megapixel APS-C custom sensor. These two items are combined with newly developed EXR Processor – the latest in image processing technology.

Aside from supporting 720p movies, boasting an EXR processor and shipping with a 23mm F2 Fujinon lens, this new handheld includes a Hybrid Viewfinder that enables users to toggle between optical and electronic viewfinders and display intricate shooting information right into the OVF.
There’s also a 2.8-inch rear LCD, a hot shoe on top and a magnesium alloy top / base plate that might be the sexiest we’ve ever seen on a camera in this sector. Low-light shooters will appreciate the ISO range of 200 to 6400, and there’s also 5fps continuous shooting, a full-on manual mode, SD / SDHC / SDXC card support and dimensions of 127- x 75- x 54mm.
