Fujifilm Announces Development Plans for New FinePix S5 Pro DSLR slated for early 2007 introduction Confirming the companys commitment to professional photographers, Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd. today announces the development of the much anticipated FinePix S5 Pro digital SLR camera. The new FinePix S5 Pro is further affirmation of Fujifilms goal to achieve professional D-SLR image quality consistent with Fujifilms professional film heritage. The FinePix S5 Pro carries a number of attributes that made its predecessor, the FinePix S3 Pro, so popular with wedding, portrait and studio photographers. One of them is increased dynamic range from the Super CCD SR double pixel technology (6.17 million S-pixels and 6.17 million R-pixels). The new FinePix S5 Pro continues this tradition of expanded dynamic range and goes a step further by coupling the new Super CCD SR Pro sensor with Fujifilms new RP (Real Photo) Processor Pro for even more outstanding, film-like results. Moreover, the FinePix S5 Pro will house the two technologies in a fully digital and durable metal alloy body frame. This opens the door for Fujifilms digital imaging technologies to expand into other applications such as outdoor and high endurance commercial photography. Highlight features of the FinePix S5 Pro include: Image Processing and Quality Real Photo Technology Pro, which combines the Super CCD SR Pro sensor and the RP Processor Pro, allows for the wide dynamic range with smoother tonality from brightest light to darkest shadow. The re-designed new Super CCD SR Pro features an optimized low-pass filter will reduce the noise and minimize moir. The newly developed RP Processor Pro features two cycles of noise reduction so photographers can snap pictures light sensitivities as high as ISO 3200 with less noise.
