REAL PHOTO TECHNOLOGY
Fujifilm Real Photo Technology seamlessly incorporates the latest technological
improvements affecting all THREE main camera components - the lens, the sensor
and the processor. Real Photo Technology works so effectively because it makes
the overall picture a better image. The photographic result – capture life’s most
precious moments that are so true-to-life, looking at the picture is just like reliving
the moment all over again.
ANY SHOT. EVERY SHOT. PERFECT SHOT.

SUPER CCD-HR SENSOR
Super CCD image sensor combines higher sensitivity with the advanced noise
suppression capabilities of the RP (Real Photo) Processor to fully exploit the
image quality and resolutions of FinePix high MP cameras.
Even photos taken in typically noisy situations such as twilight and under other low
light conditions retain the subtle tonality and beauty you saw with your own eyes.
Fujifilm FinePix digital cameras use a proprietary CCD system that utilizes larger,
octagonal-shaped, light-gathering diodes called Picture Elements, or pixels, that
are laid out in a saw-tooth pattern. Super CCDs can capture more light information
than ordinary CCDs; the extra information is used by the camera’s image processor
to improve color accuracy and ISO speed.

RP (REAL PHOTO) PROCSOR
RP (Real Photo) Processor is an advanced signal processing developed by Fujifilm.
Two cycles of sophisticated noise reduction processing yields high quality images,
even at high ISO settings, and Contour Correction processing stands for clearer
contrast with natural resolution. In addition, ultra fast processing means Fujifilm
FinePix cameras have “no-wait” operation, with super fast shutter time and short
frame-to-frame intervals. Also, energy efficient processing means longer battery
life and more shots per charge.
ANY SHOT. EVERY SHOT. PERFECT SHOT.

FUJINON LENS
Faster Auto Focus (AF) and Auto Exposure (AE) means the camera is ready to
capture every moment, all the time. And, with the increased sensitivity of the
NEW Super CCD-HR Sensor, the lens can even adjust focus and exposure for
low-light conditions and make Face Detection possible by adjusting focal points.

i-FH
Beyond Smart Flash, there’s i-Flash, the Intelligent Flash that thinks for you. It’s all
about capturing the absolute best looking photos, even in the most challenging
situations. i-Flash delivers gorgeous pictures with true-to-life color, natural looking
skin tones and super-sharp details across the entire image.
i-Flash is a fully integrated component of Fujifilm Real Photo Technology
and takes advantage of super-fast auto exposure, dim-light auto focus and
increased sensitivity for a wide range of operation in various lighting and scene
conditions. Because i-Flash has more power ranges with more focal points than
other flashes, it can more accurately identify the subject’s distance from the
background and the location of the subject from left-to-right within the frame.
Working in combination with the NEW RP (Real Photo) Processor to set the
highest possible ISO setting (up to ISO 3200), i-Flash can easily focus on
subjects in poor lighting conditions to intelligently adjust the flash intensity.
Digital camera users get natural looking skin tones and background details,
even when the subjects aren’t in the center of the frame.
LIGHT DONE RIGHT
i-Flash gives you superb pictures
with great lighting and exquisite details,
exposing the subject without over-
powering the background.
ANY SHOT. EVERY SHOT. PERFECT SHOT.

PIURE ABILIZATION
SAY GOODBYE TO BLURRY PIUR
Picture Stabilization captures sharp,
clear pictures by reducing the blur
caused by camera shake and subject
action, even in low light conditions.
Picture Stabilization cures 3
common causes of blurry pictures
1. Subject movement
Riding a bike, jumping, dancing or racing.
FinePix cameras focus quickly on things that move fast.
2. Unsteady arm holding the camera
Even the strongest person can’t hold the camera still.
With FinePix, slight camera shake won’t affect focus.
3. Low light environments
Moonlit walks and candle light dinners.
FinePix cameras can see more, with less available light.
And that means the camera can focus in very low light conditions.
Picture Stabilization automates professional
photographic techniques to reduce or eliminate these
causes of blurry pictures. By utilizing Real Photo
Technology and the advanced capability of Fujifilm
FinePix digital cameras, a greater degree of control
is achieved which results in sharper, clearer images,
even when taken in adverse conditions.

NATURAL LIGHT MODE
Natural Light Mode is almost a dream come true. Well, that’s mostly because
it can easily capture the dreamy ambiance, mood and feel created by the ambient
lighting characteristics found in certain scenes. It could be the glimmer of a sunset,
a candlelight dinner or even the flicker of a campfire.
Natural Light Mode is powered by Fujifilm Real Photo Technology and works
exceptionally well because it disables the camera’s flash system and activates
the highest ISO setting in the NEW RP (Real Photo) Processor. With ISO 3200
sensitivity on select FinePix digital camera models, the camera can see more detail
just by using the available natural light. So, instead of capturing photos that look
overexposed by flash, overwhelming the natural ambiance, you get pictures that are
just as warm and true-to-color as the scene itself. And because Natural Light Mode
is integrated with the NEW 6th Generation Super CCD-HR Sensor, its super-high
signal-to-noise ratio maintains a clean image, free of grain.
TRUE COLORS SHINING THROUGH
Natural Light Mode preserves the true-
to-life color of the scene and captures
fine details in both the subject and the
background without ever using a flash.
ANY SHOT. EVERY SHOT. PERFECT SHOT.
