Fujifilm announce the XF10 - a small wide-angle compact
Fujifilm has announced the XF10, an APS-C sensor compact camera descended from the X70. Featuring a fast prime lens, the camera keeps the same 28mm equivalent F2.8 lens as the X70 but uses a 24MP Bayer color filter (rather than X-Trans.)
Unlike the X70, the XF10 loses the flip out screen, but does weigh considerably less, coming in at a relatively light 280g. the XF10 has an AF joystick on the back. To scroll through menus users swipe on the rear screen, and the XF10 comes with a “SQUARE MODE” which allows users to quickly and easily switch to a 1:1 format.
The XF10 offers 11 Film Simulation modes unique to FUJIFILM, as well as 19 advanced filters. The XF10 includes two new advanced filters: “Rich & Fine” and “Monochrome [NIR]", which simulates a monochrome effect like that of near-infrared cameras.
Despite offering 4K video, this is only at 15fps, however Full HD video can be shot at 50p/24P and 23.98P.
In another nod to smartphone users, the XF10 has enhanced its Bluetooth connectivity letting users automatically transfer images directly to a smartphone.
Pricing & Availability
The XF10 will be available in Australia in August 2018, for $799 (RRP). You can find out more at Fujifilm.
