FUJIFILM Digital Camera X100VI Black.
Fujifilm has just announced the highly-anticipated X100VI camera, a 40-megapixel successor to the incredibly popular Fujifilm X100V. The X100 line has long been popular with serious image makers who demand a premium compact capable of creating professional-level images they can carry everywhere. Offering 6.2K/30P video recording, 5th generation imaging technology, AI-trained autofocus, and four stops of built-in ND filter, the X100VI is sure to be popular with street, travel, and lifestyle creators. With its compact size and up to 6 stops of in-body image stabilization, photographers and filmmakers will be able to capture their vision anywhere and everywhere they go.
Fujifilm X100VI: A Premium Compact for Creative Purists
Inspiration can strike anywhere and at any time. For creators who desire the highest quality images and superior tools that deliver, Fujifilm offers the X100VI. Building on the legacy of Fujifilm premium compact cameras, the X100VI allows creators to masterfully capture 40-megapixel stills and 6.2k/30p video footage while maintaining the premium compact line's clean, classic look and interface. The X100VI will feel familiar to those who have enjoyed Fujifilm’s X100 series in the past, as the beautiful design aesthetic has been maintained. At the same time, numerous features have been refined, added, or upgraded.
As creators, we want tools that free us to create; the Fujifilm X100VI was built with creators in mind, providing us with a comfortable, accessible, and powerful partner in our creative journey.
Stable Shooting
Having a compact camera you can carry everywhere means creators will, in fact, carry their Fujifilm X100VI with them to every destination. Never fear; the camera boasts up to 6 stops of image stabilization. This, of course, is an indispensable feature for low-light photography, but let’s not forget the X100VI can also capture amazing video.
Sometimes, we choose to work with a slow shutter, perhaps to catch the motion of a whirling crowd while capturing a sharp portrait of our friends. IBIS allows the motion of the world to be captured while eliminating camera shake.
Powerful Sensor
The imaging technology of the 40MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 5 HR Sensor of the Fujifilm X100VI allows for amazingly fast capture of huge, detailed photos. With the massive resolution available, creators can capture all the fine details in their environment, whether it be a crowded city street or a rocky beach at sunset. Operating at twice the speed of the previous generation, catching fleeting expressions in portraits or the waves as they crest a sea wall is no problem for the X100VI.
For those times you need to get just a bit closer, the digital teleconverters will come in handy; 1.4x and 2.0x are available. An internal 4-stop neutral density (ND) filter is provided to give you even more control.
6.2k Video
While some may favor one over the other, it is safe to say that many creators capture both still photography and video on a regular basis. When filmmaking is on the menu, the X100VI is a capable tool that can capture up to 6.2K at 30P. For extra crisp 60-frame shooting, 4k/60p is also available. While capturing footage, the 4-stop ND and IBIS are, of course, indispensable, and Fujifilm’s legendary film simulations give you a massive range of options for color and contrast control with classic flavors. The F-Log2 capability means you can keep all your options open in post-production if the project requires it.
Film Simulation
It is a rare conversation about Fujifilm that does not involve praise for the company’s beautiful and varied film simulations. Having a cache of 20 or more film simulations means you can pick the look and feel you want for your images as you create them. Even when shooting RAW, the simulations carry with the files to Capture One, which means you can always make changes later. The Fujifilm X100VI comes with the REALA Ace film simulation first introduced with the GFX100 II. REALA Ace produces life-like colors and has quickly become a favorite of commercial and portrait shooters. Let us not forget these simulations can also be applied when creating video.
AI (Artificial Intelligence) Trained Autofocus
Innovating the way autofocus works, Fujifilm has used deep learning technology to train the X100VI, revolutionizing subject detection and tracking. Going beyond face and eye detection, the X100VI’s autofocus algorithm locks in on and tracks a host of subjects in any lighting environment. Fujifilm recognizes that creators who take their cameras everywhere need autofocus that is fast and accurate everywhere. All this is made possible with the X-Processor 5 Imaging Processor.
Camera to Cloud
Fujifilm understands that creators often collaborate and has incorporated native support for frame.io in the X100VI. This camera-to-cloud functionality means that with an active internet connection, a creator can upload their images and video as they are being captured. Not only does this provide a means of remote collaboration, but it also means that an editor can begin post-production while production is still happening! These collaborators can be anywhere in the world, including right there with you on location. No more gathering around the back of the camera to discuss session progress, the project can be viewed and edited on a computer nearby while the photographer focuses on their subject.
