Double honors at the 2016 EISA Awards for Fujifilm with the FUJIFILM X-Pro2 and the FUJINON XF100-400mmF4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR lens

15.08.2016

FUJIFILM Corporation (President: Kenji Sukeno) is delighted to announce its two products, the FUJIFILM X-Pro2 digital camera and the FUJINON XF100-400mm F4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR lens, have been crowned at the recent 2016 EISA (the European Imaging and Sound Association) awards. Fujifilm X series cameras have consistently triumphed at the EISA awards for the last 5 years with the FUJIFILM X100 camera winning an award in 2011, FUJIFILM X-Pro1 in 2012, FUJIFILM X100S in 2013, double honors in 2014 for the FUJIFILM X-T1 camera and FUJINON XF56mmF1.2 R lens, and double honors in 2015 for the FUJIFILM X-T10 camera and FUJINON XF16-55mm R LM WR lens.

1. EUROPEAN PROFESSIONAL COMPACT SYSTEM CAMERA 2016-2017 - The FUJIFILM X-Pro2 Mirrorless Digital camera The FUJIFILM X-Pro2 is a professional documentary and street photographers dream. With the new 24.3-million-pixel X-Trans CMOS III sensor the X-Pro2 delivers incredibly detailed pictures that can be further enhanced with Fujifilms realistic film simulations. The unique hybrid multi viewfinder combines an electronic viewfinder with an optical viewfinder that includes an electronic rangefinder, while the well-built weather sealed body promises reliable shooting under all conditions. Last, but not least, the FUJIFILM X-Pro2 is a speed demon with up to 8fps continuous shooting and electronic shutter speeds up to 1/32,000 of a second.

2. EUROPEAN COMPACT SYSTEM ZOOM LENS 2016-2017 - The FUJINON XF100-400mmF4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR X Mount Interchangeable Lens The FUJINON XF100-400mmF4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR is a super telephoto zoom that gives a 150-600mm equivalent range when used on Fujifilm APS-C sensor cameras. Its a very good complement to the new X-T2 camera, giving X system users access to sport and wildlife photography. High-end technologies including ED glass deliver excellent image quality, even when the lens is used wide open, and autofocus is silent and very fast. The lens is very light for its range, yet the quality of construction is very high and the lens is weather sealed. With effective optical stabilisation, its easy to use without a tripod.

Fujifilm will continue to work on the development of excellent products and services that address user needs, thereby contributing to the further development of photographic culture.
