Product Description
Updating the S7000 model, the advanced performance and compact design of the FinePix S20 Pro digital SLR-style camera promises to find use in a variety of professional applications--studio portrait and wedding photography to baby photos, school photos, and event photos. The camera has a 3.1-megapixel Super CCD SR sensor, which can produce a 6-megapixel image thanks to its innovative layout of paired photodiodes. It also features a 6x optical zoom, dual memory slots (for XD and CompactFlash cards), and manual focusing ring.
Optics and Resolution
The FinePix S20 Pro’s Super CCD SR sensor uses 3.1 million S-pixels and 3.1 million R-pixels (for 6.2 million effective photodiodes) to deliver 6 million recorded pixels and noticeable image improvements to that of single-pixel cameras. The SR sensor’s unique double photodiode design broadens tonal capability, from bright highlights to deep shadows. It produces the following resolution modes: 2832 x 2128, 2048 x 1536, 1600 x 1200, 1280 x 960, and 640 x 480.
It’s fitted with a Super EBC Fujinon 6x optical zoom lens (equivalent to 35-210mm on a 35mm camera), and you also have the option of smooth digital zooming of up to 2.2x. In addition to the zoom button, you can manually control focal length by turning the zoom ring on the lens barrel, just as you would with a conventional SLR camera.
Fourth-Generation Super CCD SR
FujiFilm’s Super CCD SR provides a truer representation of the actual subject being photographed, revealing highlight detail and offering a four-fold increase in dynamic range. By using an innovative layout of paired photodiodes--in a "honeycomb" pattern--the technology enables confident shooting in both bright and cloudy conditions. The Super CCD improves overall signal-to-noise ratio and offers a much wider dynamic range. It also combats the bleached-out effect created by flash photography and increases exposure latitude, a great advantage in difficult lighting conditions.
