A must for nature!

I know the big expert on bridges as at Fuji S100FS S200EXR and the latter being already become a myth among fans of this kind of device and I was eager to use this X-S1 whose characteristics non-standard techniques seem! And I was soon convinced of his qualities in the register interests me the pictures of nature, flora and fauna.

A day at the beautiful garden Hanbury in Italy and some 300 photos later, the results are excellent. The 26x zoom is perfectly usable without feet; I used it to the maximum to little sparrows perched on walls; and even the intelligent digital zoom that can increase the magnification by 1.4 or even 2 disservice. Wanting to make the details of an apple perched pine top of a pine Canary, I compared the results between my decision to 26x view where I can zoom in on my PC and the view taken with the 26x digital zoom x2 of the device and finally, it is this second view which proves significantly better than the first.

Of course, the macro mode has served me for details of flowers and what really convinced, is the opportunity to succeed certain macros in low luuminosité: thus, a remarkable sage flower of a variety almost black growing in a very dark corner of the garden under plant cover gave an excellent result.

For now, I am far from having tested the potential of the device but ultimately, I already know enough to be sure that in the area that interests me is a sacred instrument! Note that for one who has already had major bridges expert Fuji, no learning is required, the controls and menus are quite similar to previous ones, though in far better where there is more direct access by a few Additional buttons or dial settings. However, the format of the screw-filters (62 instead of 67 mm) and the battery is not the same as on previous models.
