FinePix S5 Pro Debuts

The FinePix S5 Pro digital SLR from Fujifilm, the successor to the company’s S3 Pro, has made its North American debut. The primary new features in the 12.3-Mpxl S5 Pro include increased dynamic range from its Super CCD SR double pixel technology, a new Real Photo Processor Pro (for noise reduction and minimized moire), and a fully digital metal alloy body frame. The new camera also includes the company’s Face Detection Technology, which detects up to 10 faces in a scene immediately after each image is captured; photographers can zoom in and confirm facial detail, whether eyes are open or closed, focus, and exposure.

Other features include: a 2.5-in. color display; RAW and JPEG dual save mode; a “Remark” function that enables the addition of comments to an image file by connecting a special bar code reader to the camera body; and more. Hyper Utility Software for precise editing control of images taken in CCD-RAW 14-bit format is optional. Fujifilm has yet to set a price.
