Photokina report
Fujifilm announces the development of the much anticipated follow-up to the FinePix S3 Pro DSLR, the Fujifilm FinePix S5 Pro. The new Fujifilm S5 Pro is an important step in continuing with the company’s goals for achieving professional DSLR image quality consistent with Fujifilm’s professional film heritage. The increased dynamic range from the Super CCD SR double pixel technology (6.17 million S-pixels and 6.17 million R-pixels) became popular in the FinePix S3 Pro with portrait and wedding photographers. The Fujifilm FinePix S5 Pro continues these advancements by coupling the proven Super CCD SR Pro with the companies new Real Photo Processor Pro for even more outstanding film-like results.
Fujifilm S5 Pro SLR - Super CCD SR
The two technologies will be married together in a fully digital and durable metal alloy body frame. This opens the door for Fujifilm’s technologies to expand into other venues such as outdoor and high endurance commercial photography. The Real Photo Technology Pro, which combines the Super CCD SR Pro and the RP Processor Pro, allows for the greater dynamic range with smoother tonality from highest to shadow. The re-designed new Super CCD SR Pro features an optimized low-pass filter, will reduce the noise and minimize moiré.
Fujifilm FinePix S5 Pro DSLR - Dynamic range
The newly developed RP (Real Photo) Processor Pro features two cycles of noise reduction which enables photographers to take images at even higher sensitivities (ISO 100 to ISO 3200) with clearly reduced noise. For even greater creative control over the Fujifilm FinePix S5 Pro’s dynamic range, photographers can now choose from up to six preset ranges between 100% and 400%. For improved reproduction of natural skin tones, three new variations of the original F1 film simulation mode have been added (five modes in total).
