Pixel-Shift Multi-Shot

The camera takes a series of 20 shots, using in-body image stabilization to move the image sensor by half a pixel with each shot and recording each frame in RAW format. Using specialized computer software, the frames can then be combined to create a high-resolution RAW picture.

  1. Press the [DRIVE] button to display the drive mode options and select [PIXEL SHIFT MULTI SHOT].

  2. Choose a value for [INTERVAL].

    • We recommend setting [INTERVAL] to [SHORTEST].
    • If you intend to use the flash with every shot, choose a value for [INTERVAL] long enough to allow the flash to charge between shots.

  3. Press the shutter button to start shooting.

    • The shots are recorded to the memory card in RAW format.
    • To minimize vibration, use the self-timer or a remote release.

  4. Combine the shots on a computer.

    • The shots can be combined using FUJIFILM Pixel Shift Combiner.
    • To save high-resolution RAW pictures in other formats, use Capture One Express for Fujifilm, Capture One for Fujifilm, or Capture One Pro, available from Capture One A/S. FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO and RAW FILE CONVERTER EX powered by SILKYPIX cannot be used for this purpose.

Pixel-shift multi-shot photography can be performed via tethered shooting. For this purpose, use FUJIFILM Pixel Shift Combiner.

The flash will synchronize with the shutter at shutter speeds of 1/25 s or slower.

The following limitations apply to the use of the pixel-shift multi-shot option:

  • Pixel-shift multi-shot photography can only be performed using the electronic shutter.
  • Sensitivity is restricted to a maximum of ISO 1600. Choosing higher values or a setting of [AUTO] results in a sensitivity of ISO 1600, while lower values remain unchanged.
  • The only option available for [RAW RECORDING] is [LOSSLESS COMPRESSED].
  • Pictures taken with [CONTINUOUS AF] selected for focus mode will be shot using [SINGLE AF]. Pictures taken with [SINGLE AF] or [MANUAL FOCUS] selected are shot in the chosen focus mode.
  • If the subject or camera moves during shooting, the desired results may not be achieved when the shots are combined.
  • A[SHOOTING SETTING] > [FLICKER REDUCTION] is automatically set to [OFF].
  • The value selected for exposure compensation applies to all 20 shots.
