Fujifilm X-S20 Mirrorless Camera, Black

Fujifilm X-S20 Mirrorless Camera, Black

Designed for both stills and video creation, X-S20 offers a powerful combination of creative features and cutting-edge technology in a lightweight body. The 26.1-megapixel X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor and X-Processor 5 imaging engine combine to deliver a blistering performance, recording video up to 6.2K and uncropped still images at up to 20 frames-per-second. A powerful in-body image stabilizer offers up to seven stops of compensation, plus battery life has been dramatically increased, managing more than double the images per charge compared to its predecessor X-S10 model. Vlog mode makes it simple to get pro-quality footage, while Fujifilm’s 19 unique Film Simulation modes complete the picture, delivering stunning colors straight out of camera.

X-S20 offers the perfect blend of power and portability to turn thoughts and ideas into reality. Weighing just 491g (1.08 lb), with a deep handgrip, X-S20 ensures a confident, comfortable hold with even the most sizable lens attached. X-S20 delivers stunning 26.1-megapixel images straight out of camera using Fujifilm's acclaimed color science, at up to 20fps in electronic shutter mode. Its 180 Vari-Angle LCD touchscreen makes selfie-style shots or wild angles a snap and intuitive layout enables creatives of any level to create as soon as their hands touch the camera.

X-S20 combines powerful sensor and processor technologies to deliver a blistering performance for stills and video allowing you to capture the moment any way you need. For the first time in an X-S Series model, the X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor is paired with an X-Processor 5 imaging engine, resulting in high-speed image and video processing alongside unparalleled autofocus speed and accuracy. A new AF algorithm offers the same subject detection functionality as Fujifilms range-topping X-H2S, so you can move as fast as the world around you. X-S20 also features Auto Subject Detection AF, perfect for hassle-free creativity.

Thoughtful ergonomics and cutting-edge technology make camera shake and blurry imagery a distant memory with X-S20. The camera's large handgrip makes for a secure, comfortable hold. At the same time, five-axis in-body image stabilization (IBIS) has been improved from that available in the predecessor X-S10 model, offering up to seven stops of compensation, ensuring that handheld videography and low-light image-making are nothing to fear. The X-S20 represents a one-stop gain over the previous IBIS system found in the X-S10.

In addition to being a competent stills machine, X-S20 excels at video creation whether vlogging, live streaming, or making full-length features. The new Vlog mode puts professional-quality footage in easy reach, enabling users to focus on the unboxing of new items or to defocus cluttered backgrounds with a tap. A 3.5mm jack makes it effortless to connect various accessories, including the optional TG-BT1 grip which can be added for hands-free wireless operation. Stream 4K/60P footage directly from USB-C*, or internally record up to 6.2K/30p video in 4:2:2 10-bit color when the story calls for it. *4K output requires a 4K-compatible monitor, a USB-C cable of USB 3.0 or greater, and supported software.

X-S20s impressive battery significantly enhances longevity, letting creatives create content on the go without battery life concerns. Its NP-W235 Li-ion battery delivers an impressive 750 frames in Normal mode more than twice the number possible with the previous, X-S10 model. Or, switch X-S20 into economy mode, and make up to 800 frames on a single charge.

Fujifilm cameras are synonymous with stunning colors. Featuring 19 Film Simulation modes, including the recently introduced Nostalgic Negative, X-S20 is no different, giving users a powerful, in-camera palette reminiscent of Fujifilms analog film stocks of the past. These modes, perfected through decades of photographic experience, are available at the touch of a button, affording users endless creativity without spending hours on a computer screen. Whether making stills or videos, choose the Film Simulation mode that suits the scene, and start creating!
