Sensor and Processor
Since the X-T200 functions with the updated CMOS sensor. As a matter of fact, it consists of copper-wiring which delivers huge performance with the processor to deliver huge results. Although Fuji doesn’t specify the type or generation of image processor used in the camera, the X-T200’s ISO range remains the same as found in the previous model.
The benefits of the new sensor are two-fold. One, the sensor can be read-out 3.5 times faster than on the aluminum-wired model. As a result, it results in less rolling shutter when capturing video or using the electronic shutter. Secondly, it increases the maximum ISO to 25,600, up a full-stop from the X-T100.
