Fuzifilm’s X Half is an analog film a $ 850 digital camera with beauty

Fuzifilm has already released an unusual camera this year GFX100 RF Medium format is compact, but this is the latest model and very offby. $ 850 X half 18 megapixel digital compact camera, but it uses half of 1-inch sensor to shoot 3: 4 vertical photos. To drive the Retro Vibe home, it has a behind screen to display the 13 film simulation modes of the camera and can only shoot JPEG and not raw pictures.

This name comes from famous “Half-Frame” cameras in the 60s, famous Olympus Penn F.It uses half of the 35 mm film frame (18 mm x 24 mm in size). The top of the Fujifilm’s top-back-up sensor, in two measurements (8.8 mm x 13.3 mm) or a quarter of the area. This is the smallest sensor on the recent Fujifilm digital camera because the X-series uses the APS-C format and GFX models medium format. In fact, x has a vertical ratio of 3: 4 as if half Fuji Instax Mini Instant Cameras – So you can prints using Instax Mini Printer Through the new dedicated X Half Smartphone app.

X Half naturally uses Fuzifilm’s film simulation and grain effect modes. When the film accidentally emerges, the “Expired Film” and “Hollamation”, the effect of lighting the film emulsion layers lightly. To bring you into that analog film mood, you can switch to a new film camera mode that limits your view to the optical viewfinder, allowing you to pull the frame advance liver to each new shot and allows you to see only the X Half app. It also produces a “contact sheet” layout for 36, 54 or 72 images.

Another feature is 2 -in -1 images, which allow you to combine two still images or movies to combine the camera as a composition on the camera (re -using the Film Advance Liver). This means that you can also shoot photos along with the X Half Video, with vertical or square size (up to 2,160 x 2,160) – especially with the application of film simulations. Like the old school Kodak -style film camera, the “Date Stamp” function that allows you to print dates to the bottom right of the images is also uncovering the nostalgic vibes.

Above the main rear 2.40 Inch LCD3: 4 Monitor, the X Half has an optical rather than an electronic viewfinder, which adds another analog touch (and parallax distortion defects). The camera is small enough to slip into the pocket and weighs just 210 grams (7.4 uns). Other features include built-in flash, heavy 880 frame battery life and SD UHS-I card slot.

X seek half of social media users or someone looking for a fun party or holiday camera. However, you can get Instax (or regular film camera and very film) for very little. Fujifilm has definitely seized a photography jaitgist with models like X100 VI, but I am not surprised if it is successful.
