RP (REAL PHOTO) PROCESSOR Pro

Exhaustive Noise Reduction & Smoother Tonality

“Image Intelligence™”–the distillation of the vast image processing technology and know-how of FUJIFILM into a database for application in 
diverse  domains  from  printing  industry  to  the  medical  field.  In  the  case  of  the  FinePix  IS  Pro,  high-accuracy  face  analysis  and  detection 
technology has been integrated in a custom IC chip that can analyze a captured image in an instant and simultaneously detect up to 10 faces. It 
is a powerful new solution to meet the high quality demands of photography.

In many scientific applications involving alternative light source (ALS) photography, quite often there are very limited amounts of available UV or IR light 
reflecting from the subject. Therefore, higher ISO’s in combination with low noise CCD signal processing is critical.  Fujifilm has introduced “Real Photo 
Technology Pro” to overcome signal to noise limitations that plague many third party IR camera conversions.  It fuses our new wide spectrum sensitive Super 
CCD SR Pro and RP(Real Photo) Processor Pro to realize ultrahigh resolution with superb S/N ratios. The twin pixel array of Super CCD SR Pro provides a 
wider dynamic range and rich tonality for performance and image quality beyond imagination.

Emulating  the  composition  of  negative  film,  the  unique  double-photodiode  matrix  of 
Super  CCD  SR  Pro  consists  of  6.17  million  high-sensitivity  S-pixels  with  large  light 
reception  surface  area  and  6.17  million  R-pixels  for  wide  dynamic  range  with  small 
light receptor area. The large 23.0mm × 15.5mm CCD with its high resolution canvas 
of 12.3 million effective pixels also achieves a dynamic range of 400%, approaching 
that  of  negative  film. 

It’s  sensitive  to  a  spectrum  capture  range  between  380nm  and 

1000nm.  Also  its  newly  optimized  protective  glass  filter  reduces  problematic  dust 
cleaning,  yet  enables  maximum  UV  and  IR  penetration  with  limited  moiré  pattern 
effects. Achieving both high resolution and high S/N ratio.

  

The extended dynamic range setting can be precisely and optimally 
set according to subject and scene conditions. In addition to Auto 
for  automatic  range  selection,  there  is  a  Manual  mode  offering  a 
selection of 6 steps: 100% (STD), 130%, 170%, 230% (W1), 300% 
and 400% (W2). Select 400% (W2) and get maximum performance 
of both “S” and “R” pixels for an exposure level equivalent to +2EV 
and  capability  to  capture  outstanding  photos  in  high-contrast 
scenes.

IS  Pro  fully  supports  Adobe  RGB  color  space,  the  choice  and 
standard  of  graphics  professionals  and  the  printing  industry.  The 
superior  color  gamut  of  Adobe  RGB  color  space  fills  the 
photographic expression needs of today’s professional.

This newly developed processor features the very latest in digital image 
processing  technology.  Using  “Double  Noise  Reduction”  and  a  unique 
advanced 

algorithm, 

RP 

Processor  Pro  accurately 
identifies,  separates  and 
eliminates  virtually  only  noise  
from  the  image  data  signal. 

Even at the highest sensitivity

of  ISO3200,  the  clarity  is 

amazing.

New Hyper-Utility Software “HS-V3”

Hyper

-Utility Software

Easily replicate even the 

high color saturation of reversal film 

HS-V3  Hyper-Utility  Software  uses  3D-LUT 
image  processing  technology  to  convert 
CCD-RAW  14bit  data  into  image  data  files 
with  high  precision.  FUJIFILM  technology  lets 
you  replicate  color  quality  that  approaches  that 
of  film.  Use  “Velvia”  Mode  to  reproduce  blue 
skies  with  amazing  clarity  and  enhance  photos 
with  luxuriously  saturated  color.  Choose  the 
“Studio  Portrait  EX”  Mode  for  tonal  touch  and 
broad  color  reproduction  rivaling  professional 

negative film.

PC Control Mode for remote 

shutter release from the computer

With  the  IS  Pro  tethered  to  your  computer,  you 
can release the shutter with a mouse click. Right 
after  the  shot,  the  image  can  be  displayed  and 
checked  for  focus,  color  quality  and  other 
details.

Masking Function

Display  the  image  with  the  masking  size 
selected  on  the  camera.  Confirm  cropping  to 
precisely meet the various print sizes. 

RAW FILE CONVERTER

PC “Live View” function for accurate 

confirmation of focus and 

view angle on the computer display

With  the  mirror  in  the  up  position,  PC  “Live 
View” lets you use the HS-V3 window to directly 
view  the  image  seen  through  the  lens  of  the 
camera.  It  is  ideal  for  focus  and  view  angle 
settings for high-angle shots that are difficult to 
check in the viewfinder.
