Fujifilm’s X Half is a 850 -dollar digital camera with aesthetic movie

Fujifilm has already released one unusual camera this year in GFX100 RF Coordination average compressed, but its latest style may be the most famous yet. $ 850 X Half It is a 18 -megapixel digital compact camera, but it uses half a 1 -inch sensor for 3: 4 vertical photos. To drive home, the rear screen has a rear screen dedicated to displaying the 13 -year -old film simulation modes and can only shoot JPEG images, not raw pictures.

The name comes from popular “half -frame” cameras in the 1960s, like the famous Olympus pen andIt is used by a 35 mm film frame in half (18 mm x 24 mm). The pollinated rear sensor is on half of Fujifilm’s X Half is, half of this size in both dimensions (8.8 mm x 13.3 mm) or a quarter of the area. It is also the smallest sensor on any modern Fujifilm digital camera, where X-Series uses APS-C format and medium GFX models. In fact, the half x has the same vertical percentage 3: 4 like Fuji Instax Mini Immediate cameras – so that you can make prints with Instax Mini Printer Through the smartphone application x half dedicated

Half X naturally uses Fujifilm simulation patterns and grain effect. Among the new “light leakage” of a vast quality that occurs when the film is unintentionally exposed to light, “expired” and “haral”, a resulting effect that wears the layers of film emulsion. To really bring you to the mood of the analog movie, you can switch to the new movie camera that limits your view to the optical camera lens, and makes you withdraw the prior frame lever for each new shot and allows you to just see the images by “developing them” through the X Half app. It even produces the layout of the “connection sheet” for 36, 54 or 72 photos.

Another feature is the 2 in 1 images that allows you to combine two images or fixed films in one composition in the camera to get additional artistic possibilities (using ADVANCE movie crane again). This also means that half a half can shoot video and photos, with a vertical or square size (up to 2,160 x 2,160) which looks perfect for social media – especially with the simulation of applied movies. Also, the exudation of nostalgia is the “Seal of History” function that gives you the imprint of dates at the bottom of the images, just like Kodak movie cameras in the old school.

At the top of the 2.4 -inch LCD 3: 4 -inch rear screen, the half x contains optical camera lens, not electronic, which adds another representative touch (and accompanying mutilation errors). The camera itself is small enough to slip in the pocket and weighs only 210 grams (7.4 ounces). Other features include a built-in flash, a battery life of 880 huge frames and the SD UHS-I Speed.

It seems that Half X may aspire to social media users or anyone looking for an enjoyable party or vacation camera. However, it is charged with considering that you can only get Instax (or a regular movie camera and a lot of movies) much less. Fujifilm definitely seized the Zeitgeist photography before with models such as X100 VI, though, so I will not be surprised if it becomes a great success.
