FUJIFILM INTRODUCES THE GFX100, A GAME CHANGER IN DIGITAL CAMERA TECHNOLOGY AND CAPABILITY
-100+ megapixel sensor in a 55mm diagonal length large format offers highest resolution in the history of mirrorless cameras -Fast, accurate autofocus with the world’s first phase detection system, 4K video capability, and in-body image stabilization in a large sensor format1.
Valhalla, New York, May 23, 2019 – FUJIFILM Holdings America Corporation today announced the upcoming release of its flagship GFX100 mirrorless digital camera, incorporating a newly-developed 102 megapixel (MP), 55mm diagonal length large format image sensor that is designed to deliver image clarity and capability previously unheard of in the photography and video industries.
The GFX100 features several ‘world firsts’ for a large format camera with an image sensor larger than the 35mm (full-frame) format: including its 102MP back-side illuminated sensor (BSI), in body image stabilization (IBIS) and on-board phase detection hybrid auto-focus (AF) with near 100% coverage. In addition to pioneering features, the GFX100 is fully equipped with Fujifilm’s unparalleled color reproduction technology and film simulations. Resulting from years of research and technological innovations, the GFX100 will provide photographers with exceedingly high-quality imagery and best-in-class camera responsiveness for filmmaking and photography in a simple-to-use large format system with a growing selection of lenses.
Offering large-format video capability, the GFX100 is the world’s first mirrorless digital camera with an image sensor of this size to offer 4K, 30p video recording capability (4:2:2 10-bit). These groundbreaking features make the GFX100 a camera of unparalleled innovation and versatility, fulfilling photography’s intrinsic mission of capturing and recording precious moments that may never be repeated with the utmost image quality.
Resolution Redefined: World’s First 100 MP BSI CMOS Sensor in a Mirrorless Camera
The GFX100 pairs a newly-developed back-illuminated 102MP CMOS imaging sensor with Fujifilm’s blazingly fast X-Processor 4 processing engine to create a combination capable of outputting 16-bit images with amazing color fidelity, rich shadow detail, and incredible dynamic range. Its back-illuminated structure promotes crisp image quality by bringing the exposure plane in extremely close proximity to the color filter array, which results in ultra-low noise levels and a native ISO of ISO 100.
1. First for a camera with image sensors larger than the 35mm full-frame format
Noteworthy Stability When It Matters: World’s First Five-axis IBIS in a Camera Featuring an Image Sensor Bigger than the 35mm Format
High-resolution image sensors require high-level stability to ensure image sharpness. With built-in 5-axis image stabilization, GFX100 users are reassured that vibrations won’t interrupt the capture process. The function offers up to 5.5-stop image stabilization (when using the GF63mmF2.8 R WR lens)2. The entire shutter unit is suspended with four springs to minimize the effect of shutter shock. This dramatically broadens the scope of situations where a user can hand-hold the camera and still enjoy the world of 100MP+ ultra-high resolution, pushing the boundaries of photographic expression.
Practical Auto-Focus for Large Format: World’s First On-Board Phase Detection Hybrid AF with approximately 100% Coverage
Compared to traditional medium format digital systems, the GFX100 raises the bar in AF performance by utilizing phase detection pixels across the sensor to help photographers obtain focus wherever they choose to position their subjects in the frame. With 3.76 million phase detection pixels, at approximately 100% coverage, near perfect auto-focus performance with speed and accuracy is now a reality for photographers needing optimum performance in subject tracking, face/eye detection and low-contrast environments. The effect is particularly notable when using fast prime lenses, achieving speed improvement of up to 210% over the conventional contrast AF system used in GFX 50R.
Pushing Creative Boundaries for Filmmakers: Large Format Camera with 4K video at 30p
With a sensor size of 43.9mm x 32.9mm, the GFX100 supports filmmakers in achieving their creative visions. The new sensor and processor combination support 4K video recording at 30p with a unique cinematic look. It’s now a breeze to explore shallow depth-of-field, wide tonal reproducibility and extra high ISO sensitivity, producing high- quality video footage with detailed textures while reproducing three-dimensional definitions and even capturing the atmosphere of the scene. With the ability to apply Fujifilm’s highly respected Film Simulations (including ETERNA cinema film simulation mode), record in F-Log Rec 2020, and capture 4:2:2 10-bit uncompressed footage through the HDMI port, GFX100 should certainly be coming soon to a screen near you.
Dust-resistant, Weather-resistant, Lightweight and Highly Robust Magnesium Alloy Body with Integrated Vertical Grip
Maximizing its use for even the toughest conditions, the GFX100 has weather sealing in 95 locations across the camera body and detachable EVF to ensure an exceptionally high level of dust and moisture resistance. Photographers will have the opportunity to capture moments in even the most remote locations as the GFX100 can maintain reliable operation even under tough natural conditions.
2. Based on CIPA standard. Pitch/yaw shake only. With GF63mmF2.8 R WR lens mounted.
Although it sports a large image sensor, the GFX100’s body is equivalent to that of a flagship 35mm full-frame DSLR camera in terms of dimensions (6.15” (W) x 6.44” (H) x 4.05” (D), measuring 1.93” at the thinnest part) and weight (approx. 3 lbs. including two batteries, memory card and EVF).
Designed for protection, the GFX100’s core imaging unit, consisting of the lens mount, image stabilization mechanism and image sensor, has been structured completely separate from the main body panels. This “double-structure” is designed to ensure a high level of precision and robustness while minimizing resolution degradation caused by external stress to the body. To maximize usability, the GFX100 incorporates a vertical grip, enabling effective use of in-body space.
Advanced Color Reproduction Technology, Delivering Astonishing Quality in Stills
The combination of the newly-developed image sensor and the fourth-generation X- Processor 4 processing engine means the camera supports the 16-bit RAW capture requested by many professional photographers seeking files that tolerate heavy post- processing. The GFX100 also features the newly-developed “Smooth Skin Effect” function, which automatically smooths the skin tone of the subjects, as is often performed in portraiture. It allows the photographer to skip a portion of post-processing work so that images captured with this function can be finished at an extremely high level of perfection, faster.
The GFX100 will be the flagship model of the GFX Series of mirrorless cameras, which have garnered strong praise from professional photographers and photo enthusiasts for their use of 55mm large format image sensor, measuring 55mm diagonally (43.8mm x 32.9mm) and providing approximately 1.7 times the area of the regular 35mm full-frame sensor.
The GFX100 digital camera body will be available on June 30, 2019 at a suggested retail price of USD $9,999.95 and CAD $13,299.99.
Fuji Registered a new FF180005 Digital Camera, and according to Japanese sources the camera is probably GFX100 camera.The camera was officially announced back on Photokina 2018. And we also know that the camera features Sony made 100MP Medium format BSI CMOS Sensor and capable to record 4K 10bit video 4:2:2 via HDMI output and 4:2:0 in in memory card, built-in image stabilization system despite of having such a big sensor setup. The camera is a perfect Hybrid Solution for professional shooters and will cost approx $10,000.
We already have a wide range of Fuji Medium format lenses available and if you don’t have that budget for a 100MP MF camera you can also get the newly announced affordable MF camera at $4,499 with 50MP CMOS sensor.
We have already seen the prototype images and major specs of the camera.
Fujifilm GFX 100 MP [prototype] more leaked images surfaced over the web, now we do have fresh set of images of the upcoming camera . And for the first time we are looking at the rear side of the camera. But, frankly speaking the rear side of the camera look bit blank / flat or you can say it contain a lot of negative space. The less un-lebelled button. If you look at the Fuji GFX50S [B&H | Amazon], its look like a very well designed Medium Format camera.
Fuji GFX100 Top Side
The top side of Fuji GFX 100 camera is very neatly designed. Although I always love to have manual controls over the camera body. I really like the GFX 50S rear and Top design compared to GFX 100 camera. Since the GFX 50 feature extensive manual control over the body.
Fuji GFX 50S Top side
The Fuji GFX50S is one of the best and very well designed Fuji MF camera. We will being more update to you soon as we get any new information.
In a Latest interview by Cameta Camera at PhotoPlus EXPO 2018 Fujifilm manager confirmed that their Fuji film GFX 100 camera will going to cost you approx $9,995 in USA. Take a look at the set rumored specification of the upcoming Fuji GFX 100

Sony and Fuji do have a long term partnership, As well know that Fuji GFX50 series camera is using Sony 50MP sensor at the same time the upcoming Fuji GFX100 camera will also use Sony 100MP BSI CMOS Sensor. Btw, building a sensor-shift image stabilization system for a 100MP Medium Format sensor is a real challenge.
The camera is set to arrive in the year of 2019 and we may see some kind of development announcement in Photokina 2019 event.
We will update you soon as we get any new information.
Take a look at the image comparison between the Panasonic LX100 II camera versus the Other popular compact cameras of the world right now.
Panasonic LX 100 II vs The Panasonic ZS 200
The Panasonic LX 100 II camera vs The Panasonic ZS 200 camera. The Panasonic ZS 200 camera features of one inch sensor inside and ability to do 15 x optical zoom, the camera also captures 4K video at 30 frames per second and features 5 Axis hybrid optical image stabilization.
Now we can’t comment on the specs of the Panasonic LX100 II to camera. However the Panasonic LX100 Ii camera features bigger sensor compared to the ZS200 camera.
We will post update, a brief specification review between both the camera and all other once we get the full set of specification of the upcoming camera.
Panasonic LX100 II vs Fuji XF10
Fuji XF 10 camera features a large apsc format sensor with 24 megapixel resolution, the camera can also shoot 4K videos but limited to 15 frames per second which is ofcourse not usable for professional purposes.
So, if you want to get better image quality from your camera of course the Fuji x XF10 with a large sensor will give you have better output compared to the micro four thirds sensor having a cropped lens.
Now, if we compare the video modes of both the camera, then even the predecessor Panasonic LX100 camera still have a better video recording mode compared to the recently announced Fujifilm XF 10 camera. The only problem associated with the video recording in Panasonic LX100 camera was the slow autofocusing due to the absence of DFD auto focusing system, I hope this time Panasonic is using fast DFD auto focusing system in the Panasonic LX 100 II camera.
Panasonic LX100 II vs Canon G1X Mark III
The only issue associated with Canon G1X Mark III is Video limitation upto Full HD only, otherwise the camera feature relatively large imagine area compared to LX100 II camera. The canon compact camera features Dual Pixel CMOS AF Sensor, so it does blazing fast AF while recording still images or creating a video. One more noticeable to feature to have with Canon G1X Mark III is Dust- and Water-Resistant Construction, so you can use it even in light rain and dust-storms.
Panasonic LX100 II vs Fuji X100F
Panasonic LX100 II camera vs Fuji X100F, As we all know that @ $1299 we are getting a 23mm F2 lens and 24 MP X-Trans sensor. Fuji X-100F is a excellent tool for still shooters, however the camera remains limited to Full HD video mode. LX100 II look more versatile with 3X optical zoom lens and ability to do 4K despite of having a smaller sensor inside.
Panasonic LX100 II vs Sony RX100 VI
The RX100 VI is a flagship compact cameras to today’s world and features high-end core specs that include 20MP EXMOR R CMOS sensor, Fast Hybrid AF System with 315 Points and does 4K at 30p. The LCD display screen of the Sony RX100 VI camera can be bent forward to create selfie / videos . But LX100 II arrived with a fixed LCD display screen same as of its predecessor. The Major advantage of Panasonic LX100 II is sensor size / image quality, and we have to wait to see what coming inside the LX100 II camera.
The page will be updated soon once the LX100 II becomes official.
Yes, all the three major test done by focus-numerique. Fujifilm X100F is one of the best camera ever announced by Fujifilm. The X100F features 24.3MP X-Trans CMOS III APS-C sensor. The camera features 91 Phase AF points and an total of 325 AF points.
Take a look at the High ISO test images of the Fujifilm X100F camera that is making rounds in the web for its performance and exceptional image quality. Now finally it’s time to see how it performs at different ISO level
As you can see we have selected images is starting from base ISO.
Here the first set of images we have three different ISO range starting from ISO 100 to 400.
Well closely looking at the images I personally feel that up to 400 the image quality is highly satisfactory And usable for professional use. You can see that detail of the images pixel to pixel level.
In next set of images we have also the starting from 800 and ends on 3200.
Up to ISO 1600 The images from Fujifilm X100F camera is absolutely stunningthe images are usable up to ISO 3200 but the ISO 6400 and 12800 isn’t look so good and details are getting lost due to the high intensity noise reduction filter working inside the camera.
Final Word: At the end I am going to say that the images from Fuji film and have camera is highly usable up to ISO 3200 and ISO 6400 or ISO 12800 can be used for test purpose but not for professional use.
Now in the video we are going to look at the auto focusing test of the Fujifilm X100F camera. The out of focusing the speed of the X100F camera doesn’t look blazing fast but it is somehow satisfactory.
Fuji X100F official images are now available for download and the large versions are also included (link below) on users request for further analysis. The camera features third generation of X-Trans sensor so we will sure see big jump in image quality when compared to the ultra popular Fuji X100F camera.
