Pre-record mode
Do you want to film the past?
Pre-record can do just that! If you do not press the shutter release on time in important moments, the past 5 seconds will already have been saved!
How does Pre-record work? In this mode, the camera is constantly making recordings - and when you press the shutter release, the last 5 seconds are added to your current recording.
10.1 megapixels (effective)
Outstanding top performance
The new High-sensitivity CMOS sensor in the 10.1 megapixel EX-FH100 allows you to take sharp, detailed photos in full brilliant colour. The maximum image size is 3456 x 2592 pixels, and the excellent quality enables you to print high-resolution photos on A3 paper or larger.
Extremely bright, large 7.6-cm TFT colour display (super clear LCD)
Total clarity
The EX-FH100 features a large, bright 7.6-cm (3.0-inch) TFT colour display (super clear LCD) that permits viewing from almost any angle. In addition to the large viewing angle and a high resolution of 230,400 pixels, the TFT colour display provides above-average contrast, thus assuring an especially clear and sharp image of your subject. The display offers above-average brightness to simplify viewing of your images, even in sunlight. You can select from 5 presets to match the brightness to the ambient lighting conditions: 0/+1/+2/Auto1/Auto2
Various flash functions
A flash for every situation
You can adapt the flash on the EXILIM EX-FH100 for various situations. The following pre-settings are available:
- Red eye reduction: reduces the effect of "red eye"
- Auto: Flash is automatically activated when required
- On: Flash always on
- Off: Flash always off.
Memory card slot
However you want
The EX-FH100 can save your photos and movies on SD/SDHC, MMC/MMCplus or Eye-Fi Wireless cards as desired. You can now decide which of these optional cards to use spontaneously and flexibly.
Advanced Auto Tracking AF Function
Everything in view
Dogs running, kids jumping around, moving cars - there are countless examples of moving subjects, which can try the patience of even professional photographers. Thanks to the Auto Tracking AF function with motion analysis, you can relax and concentrate on the overall subject. Press the release button half way down, to fix the focus for saving – as soon as you see the picture you want, simply press release!
24 mm wide-angle lens
So far, so good!
The combination of 24 mm wide-angle lens* and 10x optical zoom makes the EX-FH100 the perfect companion for every occasion, providing great scope to capture your loved ones, the most beautiful sights or a romantic sunset. With the 24-mm focal length, you can capture a larger area and, for example, include more friends in a group photo at a shorter distance, or photograph a complete landscape or skyline.
*equivalent to 35 mm film
10x optical zoom with mechanical image stabiliser
Powerful zoom function
It's easy to zoom in on those special moments: the 10x optical zoom can bring even the most distant subjects right up close, while the mechanical image stabiliser automatically reduces blurring. The
High-speed Burst Shooting recording
Never miss that important moment!
With the ability to take up to 30 photos per second, the EX-FH100 can take high-resolution shots at up to 9 megapixels — with a recording speed of 40 fps. This way, you will always capture exactly the right moment! The number of photos per second can be varied, so that 10 photos can be stored before and 20 photos after a complete shutter cycle, for example.
High-sensitivity CMOS sensor
Excellent photos — even in poor lighting conditions
Dark rooms, twilight or poor lighting conditions? You can still take outstanding photos! The EXILIM High Speed EX-FH100 is equipped with a new High-sensitivity CMOS sensor for extraordinarily detailed shots, even in poor lighting conditions. It also processes the photos much faster. A new technology allows the sensor to capture more light and increases sensitivity while simultaneously reducing image noise considerably. The outcome is outstanding — detailed photos with excellent contrasts and rich colours.
Manual settings
Do it yourself!
Besides high-performance automatic controls, the EX-FH100 also boasts a wide range of manual options for creative shots. Set the aperture and shutter to suit your photographic requirements.
Pre-record mode
Record images before the shutter release button is pressed
With the EX-FH100, it's not only possible to take photos when the shutter release button is pressed — you can also take photos before that!
With continuous recording of up to 30 photos per second, a maximum of 25 photos can be saved in the camera's buffer memory — even before the shutter release button is pressed.
BEST SHOT motif programmes
You don't need to be an expert to create great photos
To ensure that all your photos and movies are a success from the start, the EX-FH100 comes with 18 flexible presettings for a wide range of situations. With BEST SHOT, you can also create and save your own settings, which can be selected at any time.
Almost all BEST SHOT programmes offered by the EX-FH100 are designed for both photo and movie recording.
Overview of all BEST SHOT motif programmesDifferent BEST SHOT High-speed Burst Shooting recording programs
Poor photos — no chance!
Whether they're tearing around the playground, doing tricks or taking part in sporting events, children, animals and sportspeople are still ideal subjects for photos. But what is the best setting? Five new BEST SHOT High-speed Burst Shooting recording modes now make photographing that perfect moment child's play. Simply select a BEST SHOT High-speed Burst Shooting recording mode, press the shutter release button and the optimum number of photos, speed and pre-record shots are automatically configured.
BEST SHOT High-speed Lighting
Great shots even in poor lighting conditions
Who hasn't experienced the problem of light and shade in a photo? Shaded subjects are underexposed and unrecognisable, and illuminated subjects are much too bright. The new High-speed Lighting function can help you: It provides a higher contrast range and optimised detail definition for shots with both shade and strong light. To achieve a higher dynamic range, the High-speed Lighting function combines multiple shots with different exposures into one photo with optimal exposure. Multiple shots are also possible for subjects with varying luminance.
High-speed Anti Shake
Automatically keep a steady hand
The BEST SHOT high-speed anti-shake function uses high-speed serial picture recording to the max for clearer images. The positions of consecutive photos are automatically combined to form one optimised photo. This means that even telephoto shots, which tend to be blurred due to hand movement, are clear and sharp.
High-speed night-time photos
Clarity at night-time too
The BEST SHOT high-speed night-time photos function uses high-speed serial picture recording to the max for clearer images at night. The positions of consecutive photos are automatically combined to form one optimised photo. The danger of blurred photos is reduced when taking photos at night, even without using a tripod.
High-Speed Best Selection
Ensuring you always capture the perfect moment
To ensure that you capture the perfect moment, the EX-FH100 can select the best photos from a series of shots automatically – showing a smiling face, open eyes and without blurring. The best images are saved.
More on High-Speed Best Selection in the specialBEST SHOT lag correction feature
Don't miss a second
How many times have you pressed the shutter release button too late and missed the best shot? Annoying, but avoidable. You need never again waste valuable seconds — the natural delay between identifying the subject and pressing the shutter release button is now a thing of the past: with the new lag correction function, the EX-FH100 can capture any moment, anytime. The camera selects the photo that corresponds to the configured lag from the temporary serial picture memory. If this photo is not satisfactory, you can choose the right moment from five other stored images.
More on lag correction in the specialFace detection function
Say cheese!
Whether on holiday, at a party or with the family, people are an especially popular subject for photos. It is a shame then, when their faces are blurred. Practical: The face detection function recognises individual faces or even entire groups and automatically determines the best possible setting.
Multi-motion function
Always on the move
The multi-motion function means that the camera automatically detects moving subjects against a static background and uses the high-speed serial picture recording feature to create an image sequence. The camera also selects up to five of these photos and combines them into one final photo, in which the images are shown in sequence against the static background.
Move-in series shot
Too late?
There are moments which can't be activated at the touch of a button. Nature in particular simply won't be controlled. How can we know when a bee will land on a flower or a stork will return back to its nest? With the BEST SHOT function Move-in series shot you can take photos as soon as a motif moves into an area previously defined by you. Using a tripod, multiple shots with Move-in are also particularly suited for observing animals as the camera activates automatically without you having to do a thing.
Move out series shot
On your marks, get set, go!
One of the most exciting moments in race sport is undoubtedly the start of the race. But pressing the release button at the precise moment the cars leave the starting line is more a matter of luck than anything else. With Move-out series shot, the series shot function is activated as soon as the defined object moves out of the focus area.
