Versatile exposure controls

The FinePix S5000 provides a choice of six

exposure modes: Auto mode [AUTO] for the

ultimate in ease, plus Programmed AE [P],

Aperture-Priority AE [A] (a range of 13 aperture

settings, from F2.8 to F8), Shutter-Priority AE [S] (1/1000 to 2 seconds), Manual [M], and

Scene Position [SP] mode. The latter gives you instant access to four special preset program modes: Portrait, Landscape, Sports and Night Scene. To handle the widest possible variety of light conditions, the camera also offers three light metering choices: 64-TTL Multi, Spot, and Average.

Accurate, high-speed AF system

The FinePix S5000 employs a state-of-the-art AF system to make autofocus quicker and more precise than ever. An AF-Assist Illuminator* ensures accurate focus in low light or night scenes. And the AF Area Focus system lets you focus on specific areas within the frame, making composition easier and more flexible.

* Effective at 2m range

Wide range of ISO settings

With the FinePix S5000, you’re free to select an ISO-equivalent sensitivity of AUTO, 200, 400 or a very high-speed 800*, depend- ing on subject and shooting conditions. The higher ISO settings excel at fast action and non-flash shooting in low-light conditions, as well as helping to prevent camera shake.

* When ISO 800 is selected, resolution is automatically set to 1280 x 960 pixels.

High-speed continuous shooting

To capture fast-moving subjects, the FinePix S5000 offers three high-speed continuous shooting modes: “Top 5-frame” Continuous Shooting (5 frames/second when shutter button is pressed), “Final 5-frame” Continuous Shooting (5 frames/second just before shutter button is released*), and 1280 × 960-pixel “Long-period” Continuous Shooting (1.6 frames/second for up to 40 frames).

*While you can shoot up to 40 frames (5 frames/second for 8 seconds) in this continuous mode, only the five frames just before the shutter button is released are actually captured.

Manual shooting functions

For total creative freedom, the FinePix S5000 gives you a wide range of manual controls. They include manual white balance, exposure compensation (–2 to +2 EV in 1/3-EV incre- ments), ISO sensitivity setting, auto-exposure bracketing, macro shooting (as close as 10cm), slow-synchro shooting, and more.

CCD-RAW data recording

In addition to the standard JPEG format, the FinePix S5000 can save captured images in CCD-RAW file format*. This option is especially valuable when you want to preserve the uncompressed image data.

*CCD-RAW files can be converted into TIFF files with the included RAW File Converter LE software.
