Having refined the retro styling and ergonomics of the rangefinder-inspired X100-series in its viral fifth iteration, FUJIFILM follows up with the tricked-out silver X100VI Mirrorless Camera, filling out the timeless, compact, touch-friendly body with the speed, power, and pixel count of its flagship APS-C sensor-and-processor combo. Featuring unsurpassed design and a wealth of upgraded tech, the X100VI is poised to be the everyday, everywhere darling of photographers who yearn to transform the mundane into the magical.
The high-resolution 40.2MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor has an enhanced image-processing algorithm that boosts resolution without compromising the signal-to-noise ratio, delivering astonishing image quality. This sensor has an improved pixel structure, allowing light to be received more efficiently. Partner to the newly designed sensor is a fresh engine-the X-Processor 5-which uses 64-bit processing to realize 3x faster speeds for both video and photo tasks. The combination of this high-resolution sensor and processor achieves remarkably fast operation, wide dynamic range, and incredible photo quality, even at higher ISO sensitivities.
The powerful video function afforded with the sensor-processor combo means movies can be recorded internally at up to 6.2K at 30p in 10-bit color, along with a 4K HQ mode which oversamples 6.2K footage for superior 4K output. Higher frame rate videos, at 4K 60p or FHD 240p, are also available.
The upgraded sensor-processor combination allows the X100VI to be the first in the series to feature in-body image stabilization. The five-axis sensor-shift IBIS helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake by up to six stops. The improved processing also benefits autofocus performance, producing a faster, more intelligent hybrid focusing system using 425 phase-detection points. Backed by deep learning, an AI adaptive algorithm means this focusing system is better suited to automatically detect and track a variety of subject types, ensuring the magic moment is never missed.
Further benefiting street photographers, the X100VI is ready for action, no matter how fast the subject is moving. A top electronic shutter speed of 1/180,000 sec and a maximum mechanical shutter speed of 1/4000 sec will stop any subject in its tracks. Keep your finger down, and the X100VI records images at up to 20 fps with the electronic shutter at a 1.29x crop, and 11 fps with the mechanical shutter.
Updated in the fifth generation, the camera's Fujinon 23mm f/2 lens features a revised optical design that includes two aspherical elements for improved sharpness and clarity through the reduction of spherical aberrations and distortion. With a 35mm full-frame equivalency, the lens' bright f/2 design handles low-light conditions and affords shallow depth of field. When it's bright, the built-in 4-stop ND filter can also be used for more control over your exposures and to better enable working with shallow depth of field. While the lens is a fixed focal length, the X100VI integrates 1.4x and 2x digital teleconverter settings to simulate the look of working with the longer focal lengths of 49mm and 70mm, respectively.
