I find the Fujifilm X10 an excellent camera for trekking and mountain climbing, and this is the mode I use.Ī second EXR mode helps with lowering digital noise in dark images. Fuji X10 with DR400 mode enabled can help with these cases. Example scenarios are dark alley in a city and washed-out sky, or a high contrast landscape containing deep forest and open vistas. The effect, while subtle, should prove the advantage of using this mode sometimes. Shoot a high contrast scene with DR400 enabled and disabled. It is somewhat hard to explain, so the best way is to test it yourself. It doesn’t look like some of the HDR images on the web as the effect is more subtle. The final effect is an HDR image that offers increased dynamic range. What the X10 does is expose one half of the sensor normally and underexposes the other half. The EXR sensor in the Fujifilm X10 offers a few special modes. It can behave like a normal 12 mega pixels sensor in normal conditions (daylight, shade or interiors, not too much difference in light levels in the scene) or it can split the sensor in two 6 mega pixels sides that combine in the JPEG engine to produce better results. This is a special design developed by Fujifilm that adapts somewhat to the shooting conditions. Best way is to experiment!įujifilm X10 uses a custom EXR sensor. Everything below is easily found in the manual, but the effect on pictures is harder to understand. It is important to understand a bit the peculiarities of the X10. what is so special about the Fujifilm X10 I really love the X10 camera and think that it can deliver very good results, at least as long as one does not have expectations to behave like a full-fledged DSLR. Some of these ideas and suggestions might fit other camera in the Fuji line-up, but you have to test them. My experience is based on the Fujifilm X10 and it’s bigger brother Fujifilm X-E1. If you have just bought a Fujifilm X10 it is nice to have some good starting recipes. In truth there are no magic formulas and best thing is to learn and understand the camera. Of course you may prefer some other combinations of settings. The settings I use are related to the C1 and C2 modes, EXR DR settings, assignment for the Fn button and settings for the display.
