Nine products selected for the Red Dot Design Award
Premium mirrorless camera FUJIFILM X-Pro2
The X-Pro2 is a premium mirrorless camera with classic design that has evolved from its predecessor X-Pro1s full magnesium alloy chassis and milled aluminum dials, combined with additional features for enhanced ease of use. The use of the newly developed APS-C sensor X-TransTM CMOS III *1 (24.3MP, with no optical low pass filter) and ultra-fast X-Processor Pro image processing engine delivers the highest image quality and mobility in the history of the X series. The worlds first Advanced Hybrid Multi Viewfinder allows users to switch between the optical and electronic viewfinders to suit shooting conditions. The chassis design is perfected with operability in mind, placing the shutter speed dial featuring the integrated ISO selector on the top plate, and positioning the Focus Lever for directly adjusting the focus point on the back panel.
* X-Trans is the trademark or registered trademark of FUJIFILM Corporation.
Premium compact digital camera FUJIFILM X70
The X70 is a premium compact camera featuring the APS-C sensor X-TransTM CMOS II and the newly-developed ultra-thin 18.5mm*2 wide-angle FUJINON lens on a compact metal chassis body weighing just 340g*3.

The lens barrel features milled metal aperture ring and control ring to enable full-fledged manual shooting. Other features include the 180-degree tilting touchscreen LCD monitor and operation dials.

It brings back the joy of shooting through the viewfinder in a variety of scenes both indoors and outdoors. The use of the shutter speed dial, exposure compensation dial and aperture ring on the lens barrel enables intuitive operations in the Manual mode, synonymous to the X Series. The addition of the Auto Mode Switch lever, which switches the camera into the Auto Mode with a quick lever operation, makes this model a compact yet fully-featured camera that caters to the needs of a wide range of users from beginners to professional photographers.

The Wi-Fi capability enables quick and easy transfer of image files to a smartphone or tablet device. With all the dials and operation buttons positioned on the right side of the body, users can make a quick operation with just one hand for exceptional operability.
