Photographer's Guide to the Fujifilm X100S: Getting the Most from Fujifilm's Advanced Digital Camera

This book is a complete guide to the operations, features, menus, and controls of the Fujifilm X100S camera, providing guidance not only about how to accomplish things with the camera, but when and why to use certain features. The book covers topics such as autofocus, manual focus, depth of field, aperture priority, shutter priority, HDR (high dynamic range) photography, and macro photography. It also includes discussions of the camera's special features, including its "hybrid" optical and electronic viewfinder system. The book's more than 300 color photographs provide illustrations of the camera's controls and menus, and include examples of the photographs that can be taken using the many creative settings of the camera, including the Film Simulation settings; various menu options such as Dynamic Range, Shadow Tone, and Highlight Tone; the Advanced Filter settings, with effects such as Toy Camera, Dynamic Tone, and Miniature; and the camera's features for continuous shooting, including a special capability for taking multiple exposures of a single scene. In addition, the book provides introductions to topics such as infrared photography, street photography, and astrophotography. The book also includes a full discussion of the video recording abilities of the X100S, which can record high-definition (HD) video with stereo sound. In three appendices, the book provides details about accessories available for the camera, sets forth a list of web sites and other resources for further information, and includes a section with helpful "quick tips" that give insights into how to take advantage of the camera's features in the most efficient ways possible. The book includes a complete table of contents and full index.
