FUJIFILM has introduced the FinePix XP150 which has set a new standard for
all-weather digital compacts with its extreme Four-Way Protection and advanced functionality.
Available in Black, Silver, Orange, Green and Blue, the FinePix XP150 comes equipped with GPS and is waterproof to 10 metres, shockproof to 2 metres, freezeproof to -10°C and dustproof.
Four-Way Protection
The FinePix XP150 is ideal to take mountain biking, bush walking, skiing, surfing, climbing or on any extreme adventure activity. Users can drop them, soak them, freeze them or even cover them in dirt or mud, without damaging the camera or its ability to capture great photographs.
Complete with a metal uni-body chassis for durability, the FinePix XP150 also features a redesigned double locking heavy duty door that seals and protects the battery, memory card slots as well as the USB and micro-HD ports, keeping it watertight and free of dust and debris in adventure situations.
Great Photos Made Easy
The solidly built FinePix XP150 features a powerful and performance driven
14-megapixel CMOS sensor, faster start-up and shot-to-shot times than its predecessor model, an ISO range from 100 – 3200, up to 10 frames per second (fps) continuous shooting, a 2.7” anti-reflective high contrast bright LCD with clear viewing even in direct sunlight and a high precision Fujinon 5x wide angle optical zoom lens (28-140mm) with a reinforced hardened glass lens barrier and water repellent coating.
GPS tagging
The FinePix XP150 feature a high sensitivity GPS antenna that can quickly and easily pinpoint your location, no matter where you are in the world. The FinePix XP150 also
includes an electronic compass, Photo Navigation and GPS Geo-Tagging.
If you’re moving around and taking photos, the FinePix XP150 will track your movements and display the route on the LCD.
If you want to revisit a location but can’t remember the directions, the Photo Navigation mode allows you to find a shot of the location - the FinePix XP150 will advise how far it is from your current spot and also provide directions to get there.
HD Movie capture
For outdoor photographers keen to shoot video, the FinePix XP150 offers stunning movie capture in full 1080p HD – even underwater – with sound at 30fps using one-touch ease. Watching movies back on an HDTV is also simple using an optional micro HDMI connection. (HDMI cable not included).
Advanced Image Stabilisation
The FinePix XP150 incorporates a powerful Dual Image Stabilisation system that combines a mechanically stabilised sensor with high ISO to combat camera / hand shake and subject movement for improved low light shooting, enabling you to capture sharp, colourful scenes and portraits underwater or at night. The result is an expanded range of shooting situations where the camera can be used without the need for a tripod or other support.
Tracking Auto Focus
The Tracking Auto Function (AF) is designed to specifically capture an action shot. The AF function tracks fast moving objects so they don’t escape from the frame in a blur. Subjects will be tracked automatically for as long as they are kept in the frame and the shutter is half pressed. When users fully press the shutter button, your subject will be in the centre of the photo in perfect focus.
Other FinePix XP150 features include 360° Motion Panorama Mode, Scene Recognition Auto (SR Auto), Face Detection and Automatic Red-Eye Removal, Movie Editing Mode and Blog Mode.
FUJIFILM Senior Category Manager – Imaging, Daniel Paul, said the FinePix XP150 is perfect for active people who are keen to have a versatile and durable camera on hand that lets you capture images in extreme environments.
The FinePix XP150 includes a Li-ion rechargeable battery NP-50A, Battery Charger, Plug Adapter, Hand Strap, USB cable, CD-Rom and Owner’s Manual.
