FUJIFILM has launched its second X Series interchangeable-lens camera, X-E1. It offers 16 megapixel APS-C X-Trans CMOS Sensor with OLED electronic viewfinder, a smaller body with built-in flash and the X mount for the Fujinon XF lens range.
In addition, FUJIFILM has expanded the lens line-up for its interchangeable cameras from three single focal length lenses in the first series to five with an addition of two lenses, a bright F2.8 super wide 14mm (21mm in 35mm equivalent) single focal length lens and a bright F2.8-4 zoom lens that covers the shooting range of 18mm to 55mm (27-83mm in 35mm equivalent). Another line of five unique lenses will be added to the XF lens series in early 2013, making the total to 10 lenses.
K Tanaka, MD, FUJIFILM India said, “The response we received for X-Pro 1 is overwhelming and it was the true inspiration behind X-E1. The X-E1 features the fast, high-precision “EXR Processor Pro” for quick responses whatever you’re shooting. The EXR Processor Pro receives image signals from the complex X-Trans CMOS Sensor and processes the information swiftly ensuring you can move on to your next shot without delay.”
Rohit Pandit, Executive Vice President, FUJIFILM India, “The option of ‘multiple exposure’ will be a take the photographers to a new level. After selecting the Multiple Exposure mode, take the first shot, and display the image on either the EVF or LCD monitor as reference when taking the second shot. This system facilitates more accurate positioning and focusing. The ability to take two shots while visually checking the finished image allows users to produce unique photographic expressions.”
