Camera Review  |  January 16, 2012
Fujifilm Finepix F550EXR F600EXR

With 7 different high-end compact camera models launched in 2011, Fujifilm holds the manufacturing record for this segment for 2011. Further, 2012 seems to be starting out just like 2011, with the announcement of the F770 EXR, XS -1, and HS 30 EXR cameras.

With this review of the Fujifilm F550 EXR and F600EXR, DxOMark completes its 2011 Fujifilm “collection.”

DXOMark IS TOTALLY WRONG ON FUJI X-S1 SENSOR SIZE !!!

In commenting upon Fuji XS-1 sensor DXOMark states "[i][i] Fujifilm X-S1 gets better results than a lot of ambitious cameras, yet is not equipped with a gigantic sensor like the Olympus XZ-1, the Panasonic LX-5, or the Samsung EX-1 —cameras aimed at true photo enthusiasts[/i][/i]" : well this is an INCONCEIVABLE BLUNDER from a (supposed ??!) sensor-specialist like DXO-Mark!!
X-S1 has in fact a LARGE sensor (2/3" = 8.8 x 6.6 mm), much larger than those equipping common mega-zoom cameras, common compact cameras and even larger than those on board of most high-end compacts, including ALL those TOTALLY MIS-QUOTED by DXO-Mark: Olympus XZ-1 (1/1.63" sensor = 8.07 x 5.56 mm),Panasonic LX-5 (1/1.63"), or Samsung EX-1 (1/1.7").
DXOMark seems therefore to ignore the "inch system" expressing sensor size and completely misses the point with XS-1: by using the same sensor equipping Fuji X-10, X-S1 has the largest sensor to be found on any really compact camera until very recently. Only in June 2012 that palm passed from Fuji X-10 to Sony RX100: a true compact (213 grams) equipped with a 1" sensor (" self proclaimed compacts" such as Canon G1 X, weighing well over 500 grams, are in another league).

Re: DXOMark IS TOTALLY WRONG ON FUJI X-S1 SENSOR SIZE !!!

They are .. completely wrong!!
But the worst things is they never respond to  their mistakes..

I don't know, but their testing parameters are not clear, what Mode they have setup. They did same with Fuji X10, I requested to explain what mode they setup, and if possible can they test lower resolution but Higher DR mode, they never responded and they never did anything about it... and with this camera that got same sensor they did again a very silly, ambigous test ...  >:(

Re: DXOMark IS TOTALLY WRONG ON FUJI X-S1 SENSOR SIZE !!!

When we published our test results for the Fujifilm FinePix S1-X, part of the article was inadvertently left out. We would like to draw your attention to the following information:

“The Fujifilm FinePix X-S1 belongs to the Fuji X family of premium cameras, which are characterized by high-end specifications, high-quality optics, and an exemplary finish. The Fujifilm X-S1 offers a 26x lens that covers an ideal 24-684mm focal range. Its maximum aperture is quite generous for a bridge (f/2.8–5.6) and its optical formula incorporates four aspherical lens elements and two UD glass elements. In the field, photographers will appreciate its manual zoom ring. The Fuji X-S1 differs from all its competitors with its 2/3" CMOS sensor, slightly larger than the biggest (1/1.7") sensor for expert compacts (Olympus XZ-1, Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5, Canon PowerShot S100), and 50% bigger than the usual 1/2.3" bridge sensors.”

The Fujifilm X-S1 indeed has a larger sensor (2/3") than those of the Olympus XZ-1, the Panasonic LX-5, and the Samsung EX-1, to which it was compared in our test. This information does not affect the Fujifilm S1-X's score, which stands at 140th place in the DxOMark rankings and is better than the scores for these other cameras with smaller sensors.

We sincerely apologize for having omitted this information.

Re: DXOMark IS TOTALLY WRONG ON FUJI X-S1 SENSOR SIZE !!!

That's fine, Axel.
But the current text of X-S1 review on DXO-Mark (see first page under "Sensor") still reads:
" The Fujifilm X-S1 gets better results than a lot of ambitious cameras, yet is not equipped with a gigantic sensor like the Olympus XZ-1, the Panasonic LX-5, or the Samsung EX-1 —cameras aimed at true photo enthusiasts".
SO WHAT IS DXO-MARK WAITING FOR BEFORE AMENDING IT ?????
That BLUNDER has been there for over a week now ....

Fujifilm X-S1 - Tested on New / Old Sensor ?

Hi Iam really happy to see the results but just want to know

1.)Was this tested on an [b]Old sensor (Orb issue) or with the New/ Modified sensor[/b].

2.)In case if you have tested both sensors, [b]which one performed better[/b] old or the New /Modified sensor (Ignoring the orb issue)

These 2 questions are running around thousands of times in most of the forums.
Hope the answers from DXO - one the trusted source would may give them a huge relief and even my purchase decision is still pending on this whether to go with new /old sensor  ;)

EXR

<div id="linkdxomark">This a comment for <a href="http://www.dxomark.com/index.php/Cameras/Camera-Sensor-Database/Fujifilm/FinePix-X-S1">this page on the website</a></div>EXR DR mode is available for manual exposure but you have to set the image format RAW+JPG and select image size M and DR 400%. This works also with X10 and F-series. Please retest - the dynamic range is huge for a small sensor.
