Fujifilm Launches X-S10 Camera with In-Body Stabilization

Fujifilm has just launched a new camera with the X-S10 model. This camera is known to exist for photographers who already have DSLR cameras and want to try using a mirrorless camera for the first time.

How not, Fujifilm deliberately presents a grip design similar to a DSLR camera so that it makes this camera more comfortable to use. Moreover, this camera also still uses a display like retro cameras.

Having a shape that is slightly smaller and also lighter than the X-T4 camera, Fujifilm also uses magnesium to allow the front and top plates to dissipate heat better. Unfortunately this camera has no protection against the weather.

Comes with a 26.1 MP X-Trans CMOS sensor and an X-Processor 4 processor like the X-T4 camera, Fujifilm also presents a built-in image stabilization system that is 30% smaller so that it fits perfectly in the camera body.

In addition, this camera also comes with a fairly fast autofocus system like the X-T4 with a pixel detection phase of up to 2.16 million pixels. This camera also supports capturing up to 8fps for burst mode with mechanical shutter and 30fps with electronic shutter.

Entering the video section, the camera can record 4K resolution video but only with frame-rates of up to 30fps. While videos that have 1080p resolution can be recorded at frame-rates of up to 240fps.

For the price itself, the Fujifilm X-S10 is priced starting at US $ 1,000 for body-only, US $ 1,400 with the XF18-55mm F2.8-4 R lens kit, and US $ 1,500 for the XF16-80mm F4 R OIS WR lens kit. Interested in buying this mirrorless camera?
