The Fujifilm GFX 100S is a compact mirrorless medium format camera with a large 102 megapixel sensor .
Technologically, the FUJIFILM GFX100S builds on the FUJIFILM GFX100 and its concept of a compact, lightweight digital camera with a large-format sensor. Thanks to its compact design and uncompromising performance, the GFX100S can be used in situations previously reserved for cameras with smaller sensors.
The GFX100S weighs only 900 grams and is comparable in size to most "full-frame" cameras. Nevertheless, it has a large-format 102 megapixel sensor, integrated five-axis image stabilization over 6.0 EV steps, fast and precise autofocus and the legendary FUJIFILM colour technology. All in all, this makes the GFX100S the ultimate tool for creative photographers and videographers.
102 megapixel sensor for unprecedented image quality
The FUJIFILM GFX100S has a back-illuminated 102 megapixel image sensor with a large-format diagonal of 55 mm. It is around 1.7 times larger than a conventional 35 mm sensor ("full format"), which enables a very shallow depth of field and an exact separation of sharpness and blur. The camera also offers impressive dynamic range, accurate color reproduction and outstanding high-ISO capabilities.
For more than 86 years, the FUJIFILM name has been synonymous with unparalleled image quality. Many iconic photos and films have been created on FUJIFILM material, which is appreciated for its characteristic color reproduction by users all over the world. With the 19 film simulations of the FUJIFILM GFX100S, the legendary FUJIFILM colors are available practically at the touch of a button. For the first time, the camera can be used with the new "Nostalgic Negative" film simulation, which reproduces the look of New American Color Photography from the 1970s. The images captured with this feature are characterized by soft colours and a great wealth of detail. Warm highlights and saturated depths lend the images a lyrical mood.
Fast autofocus down to -5.5 EV
Almost the entire surface of the GFX100S's large-format image sensor is equipped with phase AF pixels. Unlike conventional medium format cameras, the GFX100S therefore has powerful automatic focusing and can focus on the subject quickly, even at a low brightness of -5.5 EV, in up to 0.18 seconds. For moving subjects, the X-Processor 4 and a new AF algorithm enable precise tracking AF with intelligent face and eye detection.
Integrated five-axis image stabilization
The GFX100S features an advanced five-axis image stabilization system (IBIS) that makes it much easier to take sharp freehand shots with ultra-high-resolution cameras. Compared to the GFX100, the IBIS unit of the GFX100S is around 20 percent smaller and 10 percent lighter, yet achieves 6 EV stops of compensation according to the CIPA standard despite its smaller size. Compared to the GFX100, this represents an improvement of 0.5 EV stops.
Compact and weatherproof camera body
The FUJIFILM GFX100S weighs only 900 grams, making it exceptionally light for a camera with a large-format sensor. With its dimensions of 15 cm x 10.4 cm x 8.7 cm, it is comparable in size to many 35 mm cameras, although its body houses a 102 megapixel sensor that is almost twice as large. The compact dimensions have been made possible by the new IBIS unit, a revised shutter mechanism and a smaller but more powerful lithium-ion battery. In direct comparison with the GFX100, the new GFX100S is around 6 cm smaller and 500 g lighter. The robust and ergonomic handle ensures optimally balanced handling and fatigue-free operation of the camera even during long periods of use
The GFX100S is protected against splash water and dust and can be used at low temperatures down to minus 10 degrees Celsius. The robust magnesium housing is additionally reinforced around the bayonet mount to guarantee the best possible stability when using larger and heavier lenses.
High-resolution 4K videos with a medium-format look
The GFX100S saves high-resolution 4K/30p moving images at 400 M/bit in 10-bit 4:2:0 F-Log format directly to the memory card or as 12-bit 4:2:2 ProRes RAW via HDMI on an external recorder. The large-format sensor not only enables an attractive cinema look with ultra-shallow depth of field, but also a wide dynamic range and impressive high-ISO performance.
videos can be recorded in the classic widescreen format (16:9) or in the DCI format (17:9) developed for digital cinema. Common compression standards, such as H.264 and H.265, as well as professional log modes, such as Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) and F-Log, are also available. With the latter, the video signal is matched to the camera sensor so that the maximum contrast range can be used during post-production, for example for color and brightness correction
If 4K/30p 12-bit video data is saved directly to an Atomos Ninja V monitor recorder via HDMI, it can be output in ProRes RAW data format, which allows maximum flexibility in post-production. Simultaneous output of raw data/log material and film simulations is also possible
