Fujifilm has announced the addition of the “FUJIFILM X-T200” (X-T200) to the lineup of the X-Series. The X-T200 is a mirrorless digital camera that inherits the “central viewfinder style,” adopted by the popular X-T Series.
Fujifilm India Private Limited, a pioneer in imaging technologies, is pleased to announce the addition of the “FUJIFILM X-T200” (X-T200) to the lineup of the X-Series. This new variant adds another beast to the Fujifilm compact and lightweight mirrorless digital cameras that delivers outstanding image quality with Fujifilm's proprietary color reproduction technology.
The X-T200 is a mirrorless digital camera that inherits the “central viewfinder style,” adopted by the popular X-T Series such as the FUJIFILM X-T3 that boasts advanced mobility and excellent operability. The new entrant is designed in a compact body with a better grip, weighing just 370g* and comes with an APS-C sensor packing 24.24 million pixels and a high-performance image processing engine. Its 3.5 inch LCD monitor also comes with touch operation and upgraded still features with faster and more precise auto-focus. In addition, the camera offers upgraded video recording features that results in improved Full HD resolution and high-speed recording.
The use of the unique color reproduction technology, nurtured over many years, recreates “memory colors” or colors as one remembers in one's memory, such as naturally beautiful skin tones, vivid lush greens of early summer and deep blues of the sky on a bright sunny day. The camera's AF performance has been enhanced by placing on-sensor phase detection pixels across the sensor and adopting a further evolved algorithm. This enables outstanding AF tracking of a moving subject and AF on faces / eyes, as well as giving the ability to attain focus quickly and accurately even in low light conditions.
On the rear panel of the camera body is a bright and large widescreen LCD monitor that provides intuitive touchscreen operations. It has a “vari-angle” structure that allows users to adjust the monitor to any angle. It can be used in conjunction with the Face / Eye AF for easy “self-portraits,” adding to excellent operability. The camera extended the array of video functions so that users can record smooth 4K video at 30fps or HDR movie providing expanded tonal range even in situations with significant contrast in light levels.
Commenting on the launch, Mr. Haruto Iwata, Managing Director, Fujifilm India Pvt Ltd. said, “The camera industry in India is dynamic and we have witnessed a significant consumption of 4K cameras from the professional segment. Catering to the consumption patterns of the photographers, X-T200, not only offers a novel photography experience to the end users, but also brings the imaging industry to new heights in terms of product design. With this new edition’s incredible image quality, one can capture their beautiful everyday moments and make the most out of them while expressing one’s memories. We are confident that our latest offering will cater to the growing list of professional photographers in India and open up newer possibilities in the imaging space.”
Keeping in mind the changing preferences of consumers, the X-T200 puts professional-level features at the fingertips of creatives, giving them a new light-weight and compact mirrorless camera body that enables a high resolution EVF, quick and accurate face-detection AF, the power to create 24.2MP stills at 8 FPS, and even the ability to record 4K UHD video. With this technology, the videos can be shot from almost any angle with its widescreen vari-angle LCD Touch Screen.
The X-T200 is a mirrorless digital camera capable of producing not only premium-quality photos but also full-fledged video, catering to the needs of photography enthusiasts and users who want to step up from smartphone cameras, trying to capture and record precious memories with ease and in high image quality.
Fujifilm will continue to evolve the X Series including the X-T200, the GFX Series of mirrorless digital cameras incorporating with large format** sensors and their extensive lens lineups to deliver the joy of photography.
