Fujifilm’s big 8K cinema camera has a very tall sensor

A big week for cameras has just gotten bigger, after Fujifilm announced the GFX Eterna 55 cinema camera.

It follows Canon’s recent unveiling of its compact video-centric EOS C50 camera, although Fuji’s camera aims for a different audience. Geared towards professionals, the US$16,499.95 GFX Eterna 55 is a serious bit of kit.

Built around a large 43.8mm x 32.9mm 4:3 sensor, Fujifilm’s new camera has one of the tallest sensors in a digital cinema camera. This 102MP sensor can shoot in 8K at 30fps, supporting 4:2:2 10-bit colour depth.

Despite being a digital camera, the GFX Eterna 55 includes 20 different film simulation modes aimed at producing a cinematic look and feel. It also has plenty of editing flexibility, supporting F-Log2 and F-Log2 C formats.

Fujifilm hasn’t confirmed the Australian pricing yet; expect more info closer to its October release window.
