SUPERMODEL

Designed by Fujifilm in terms of the microlens configuration and the handling of the data from the photodiodes. Sony-fabricated BSI-type CMOS with an imaging area of 32.9x43.8 mm with an effective pixel count of 102 million, giving a pixel size of 3.75 microns (the BSI design helps optimise sensitivity). No optical low-pass filter to optimise resolution, and copper wiring used to reduce impedance. Conventional Bayer RGBG filter pattern. Sensitivity range is equivalent to ISO 100 to 12,800 with extensions to ISO 50 and ISO 102,400. RAW capture gives 14 stops of dynamic range. Ultrasonic vibration for self-cleaning, but more significantly, in-body image stabilisation (IBIS) is provided via sensor shifting. Stabilisation operates over five axes to give up to 5.5 stops of correction for camera shake. For the record, this sensor size is 1.7x
