Moiré is tackled at its root cause by the revolutionary X-Trans CMOS sensor’s color filter array.
By enhancing aperiodicity (randomness) in the array arrangement, the color filter minimizes generation of
both moiré and false colors, eliminating the necessity for an optical low-pass filter in the lens and enabling
X-Trans CMOS sensor to capture full “unfiltered” lens performance.
The EXR Processor Pro is supported by an integrated co-processor for higher speed and higher precision
image processing performance.
Inspired by the natural random
arrangement of the fine grains
of silver halide in film.

Without using an optical low-pass filter,
moire and false colors are eliminated
while realizing high resolution.
The optical low-pass filter prevents the
occurrence of moire and false colors
but results in a loss of resolution.

Next-generation Hybrid Viewfinder
optimizes magnification according to the mounted lens.
Hybrid Multi Viewf inder
Featuring the freedom to switch between an optical and electronic viewfinder, the Hybrid Viewfinder has evolved
to meet the challenge of interchangeable lenses. When an XF-series lens is mounted, lens data are communicated
to X-Pro1, and viewfinder magnification (2 types) and frame size (multiple steps) are automatically switched.
Peering through the viewfinder with all your attention focused on the subject. This simple style of shooting is the
first step back to the essential pleasure of photography. Every lens change reveals a new world of beauty to capture.

Viewfinder magnification automatically changes when an XF series lens is mounted, and because there is very little noticeable difference
in the angle of view when switching between OVF and EVF, viewing in either mode is smooth and natural. Finder magnification is 0.37x in
the WIDE view and 0.60x in the STANDARD view.
