Fujifilm has announced FinePix X100, Specs

Fujifilm has announced the X100, a large-sensor compact camera aimed at professional and enthusiast photographers. The camera uses an APS CMOS sensor and has the world’s first hybrid viewfinder on board. The X100 has a 12.3MP resolution and it can shoot HD movies. The ISO range for the camera is 200 to 6400 and it can be extended to 100 and 12800 as well. The camera also uses an EXR Processor to get the highest resolution, sensitivity, and dynamic range.

The lens is a Fujinon 23mm F2 unit and it uses aspherical glass molded lens. The hybrid viewfinder combines a “bright frame” optical viewfinder found in range finder style cameras with a LCD allowing the camera to show the shooting frame and electronic shooting data with 0.5x magnification. The X100 shoots RAW mode and has 49-point autofocus. The HD movies are recorded in 720p resolution, and it has a motion panorama function. It comes with a luxury case and has automatic flash. It will ship in March for $1,199.95.
