The XP50 offers better image quality for both stills & movie capture, an Lcd screen with enhanced visibility & a body with ergonomic styling for no loss of grip, even when wet. Plus, with a 14. 4 megapixel Cmos sensor optimised for rapid response times the Fine Pix XP50 is ideal for all-action photography on land or sea. Like its predecessor, the Fine Pix XP50 is outstandingly durable. Its waterproof to a depth of 5m & can capture both movies & still images underwater. The cameras casing will withstand shocks or drops from a height of 1. 5m & cold environments, withstanding temperatures down to -10°C. Dust is also brushed aside as all of the cameras access points are specially sealed for ultimate protection. Unlike many tough products, maximum durability doesnt lead to a compromise in image quality. The Fine Pix XP50 boasts a 14 megapixel Cmos sensor & a new image processor for impressive pictures. With Iso sensitivity up to 3200 & Cmos Shift Image Stabilization users shots remain crisp & sharply focused, even when capturing pictures in low-light environments. Plus, the Fine Pix XP50 also has a micro Hdmi output to connect the camera to an Hd ready Tv to see both images & movie in High Definition. In addition to the premium image quality offered by the Fine Pix XP50s sensor & processor, the cameras lens system will support users in their pursuit of the holiday photos. A 5x wide-angle Fujinon optical zoom lens (28-140mm equivalent to a 35mm camera) gives plenty of picture taking versatility, plus the 9cm minimum focus distance lets photographers fill the frame with detail & vibrant colour. & its not just the cameras tough casing thats built to survive: the lens also has a special water repellent coating to help minimize water droplets that can obscure or blur images. In addition to high-resolution 14 megapixel stills, the Fine Pix XP50 can capture 1080p Hd movies at 30fps for super smooth playback with the new processor helping to minimize distortion.
