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 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.
