Setting new standards for quality and
specification
The FinePix S2 Pro digital SLR builds upon its
predecessor’s reputation for outstanding picture colour and detail
while giving professional photographers even greater control over
the taking, editing, storing and transferring of high-resolution
images, both in the studio and on location.
The FinePix S2 Pro boasts the newly developed 3rd
Generation of Fujifilm’s Super CCD sensor. The sensor, which has
6.17 million effective pixels and is capable of producing 12.1
million (4,256 x 2,848) recorded pixels for pictures with stunning
colour and detail that are designed to please even the most
demanding professional photographer.
The FinePix S2 Pro also features a CCD Raw mode,
which delivers the image before it has been processed by the
camera’s internal algorithmic settings, thereby liberating
professional photographers to experiment with their photographs as
they see fit. |

3rd Generation Super
CCD and advanced LSI for stunning image quality
 Already
renowned for its class-leading colour reproduction, high sensitivity
and low noise, the latest incarnation of Fujifilm’s unique
technology offers a wider range of sensitivity (from 100-1600 ISO)
and, through Fujifilm’s new Noise Reduction Technology, even lower
levels of noise. From light location work to high-speed sports and
action photography the ability to shoot at up to 1600 ISO without
the worry of noise causing significant degradation to the image has
profound benefits for all professionals.
No-compromise photographic features
The FinePix S2 Pro features a host of cutting edge
camera functions and has a Nikon F mount that is fully compatible
with all Nikkor AF-D lenses, including the latest AF-S type
professional optics. For total flexibility, the S2 Pro has a variety
of high end photographic controls, including four shooting modes
(single frame, continuous, preview and multiple exposure), four
exposure modes (multi-programmed AE, shutter-priority AE,
aperture-priority AE and manual exposure control. In addition, there
are nine modes for white balance.
 The
FinePix S2 Pro can record images at four resolutions (4,256 x 2,848,
3,024 x 2,016, 2,304 x 1,536 and 1,440 x 960 pixels) and in three
file formats (TIFF-RGB, CCD-Raw and JPEG). Captured images can be
viewed on the camera’s 1.8 inch low temperature polysilicon TFT
monitor with 100% frame coverage.
A special voice annotation feature allows the
attachment of 30-second voice notes to each photo, which enables the
busy photographer to track and describe a large portfolio of images.
Despite the high specification and resolution the FinePix S2 Pro
still offers superb value for money. High end features such as
FireWire (IEEE1394) connectivity, IBM Microdrive™ compatibility,
CCD-Raw and TIFF modes mean the FinePix S2 Pro offers similar levels
of specification to competitive models costing thousands of pounds
more. Add to this the stunning high resolution, low noise and
class-leading colour reproduction produced by the Super CCD sensor
and results in a very compelling professional camera.
