Fujifilm GFX100S Size Reduction Explained by Fujifilm Engineers – Fujifilm X Lab

Share

Fujifilm has uploaded its latest Fujifilm X lab episode. As usual the episode is in Japanese and we rely on the automatic translation tool.

But I don’t want my readers to go through this pain, so I have summed it up for you below, as well as shared all close up images of the internals of the Fujifilm GFX100S.

Most of the size reduction was achieved thanks to the new shutter mechanism. But also the IBIS got smaller and even the Fujifilm X-T4 battery played a role in this.

Everything is nicely summarized for you down below ;).

Does Fujifilm Need Full Frame? Fujifilm GFX100S vs Sony A1 vs Canon R5 vs Nikon Z7II Specs Comparison

Share

In the launch video of the Fujifilm GFX100S, Fuji Guy Francis literally said: “is the GFX100S the reason why Fujifilm has not made a mirrorless full frame camera?” ;) – full live coverage here.

So I thought we take a look at the specs of the Fujifilm GFX100S compared to other high resolution full frame cameras.

We used the BH comparison tool to compare:

You can see the specs of all four cameras compared here.

Sure, all these cameras serve a different purpose. There is not one camera for all.

But while the Fujifilm APS-C system was so far putting a nice pressure on the full frame systems coming from the bottom, we still lacked of a real GFX camera able to put pressure from the top.

But the GFX100S changed this. Now Fujifilm’s full frame attack strategy is much stronger thanks to the pressure coming from both sides, the X and GFX system.

Fujifilm GFX100S has 16 Bit RAW and GF80mmF1.7 costs $2,299… or Setting Wrong Rumors Right (not Mine)

Share

FujiRumors always said that the Fujinon GF80mmF1.7 would cost $2,299. But when nokishita leaked the price of $2,499, some joyfully pointed the finger at me and said I was wrong. But I just checked the price at BHphoto, and I see it actually costs $2,299.

Also, Nokishita said the GFX100S would have 14 bit RAW only. But the official Fujifilm site says it is 16 bit RAW.

I thought it was time to correct these rumors, as somehow they still keep circulating, despite the fact that Fujifilm has acutally annoucned the new gear ;).

But you know… here on FujiRumors we like to be accurate, and we read the official Fujifilm specs list ;)

You can get the full launch coverage here.

Oh… and you know what… more breaking rumors are just around the corner…. really around the corner ;)
