Creative tools in a small body:

The new X-T200 mirrorless camera supplies content creators with several creative tools in a small, effective body. The latest Fuji is designed with a new electronic viewfinder to help users find their shots and a 24.2-megapixel CMOS sensor to capture those shots in detail. The X-T200 is able to process signals much faster than its predecessor, the X-T100, and allows for burst shooting of up to 8fps, ensuring you don’t miss the crucial shot. Fuji updated the face-detection auto focus and promises quick and smooth focusing, both in photo and video.

What’s more impressive are the X-T200’s video capabilities. The mirrorless camera shoots in stunning 4K up to 30fps and full HD up to 60fps. When shooting video, the Electronic Stabilization Mode limits camera shake, ideal for any shots with excessive movement, like action narratives or sports. Also while shooting video, the HDR mode is a useful tool for handling high contrast situations. To add further style to your film, Fuji includes 11 digital film simulations and 20 advanced filters that create, or mimic, the look you want to achieve. To top it off, users are able to handle basic editing functions within the Fuji X-T200 to prep and share content instantly.

The body of the X-T200 is sleek and minimalistic. Its total weight is an easy 370g, a full 80g less than its predecessors. The mirrorless camera’s 3.5-inch LCD touch screen makes using camera functions simple and quick.
