This book, a complete guide to the operation and features of the
Fujifilm X10 digital camera, is a follow-up to the author's earlier
guides to advanced compact digital cameras, including the Fujifilm
X100 as well as models by Leica, Panasonic, Canon, and Nikon. The
new book explains all operations, features, menus, and controls of
the Fujifilm X10 camera in clear language, providing guidance not
only about how to accomplish things with the camera, but when and
why to use certain features. The book does not assume any
specialized knowledge by the reader, but explains topics such as
shooting modes, autofocus, manual focus, depth of field, aperture
priority, shutter priority, HDR (High Dynamic Range) photography,
white balance, ISO, and macro photography. The book shows how to
take advantage of the camera's unique CMOS sensor with Fujifilm's
EXR technology. This special sensor enables the camera to be
configured for high resolution, high sensitivity in dim lighting,
or high dynamic range, depending on the lighting conditions the
photographer is faced with. The book also provides guidance about
the many the X10's many other advanced settings, including
adjustments for Color, Sharpness, Highlight Tone, Shadow Tone, and
numerous others. The guide's more than 200 photographs, almost all
in full color, provide illustrations of the camera's controls and
menus, and include examples of the various types of photographs
that can be taken using the many creative settings of the camera,
including the Film Simulation settings, which let the photographer
alter the color processing and other aspects of images; various
menu options such as Dynamic Range and Intelligent Digital Zoom;
and the camera's strong set of features for continuous shooting. In
addition, the book goes beyond everyday photography with
introductions to more advanced topics such as infrared photography,
astrophotography, digiscoping, street photography, and creating 3D
(three-dimensional) images that can be viewed with conventional red
and blue 3D glasses. The book also includes a full discussion of
the video recording abilities of the Fujifilm X10, which can
capture high-definition (HD) video with stereo sound and can take
silent slow-motion movies to enable studies of sports and other
actions. In three appendices, the book provides information about
accessories available for the camera, including cases, filter
adapters, and external flash units; sets forth a list of useful web
sites and other resources for further information; and includes a
section with helpful "quick tips" that give particular insights
into how to take advantage of the camera's features in the most
efficient ways possible. The book includes a detailed Table of
Contents and a full Index, so the reader can quickly find needed
information about any particular feature or aspect of the camera.
