It employs a four-point separation method effectively reducing moiré and false colors. With a focus on the soft and refined image quality demanded by cinematic expression, GFX ETERNA 55 achieves highly detailed footage that maintains a pleasing smoothness without excessive sharpness.
With a GF Lens attached, GFX ETERNA 55 delivers highly accurate autofocus. The autofocus algorithm leverages the same advanced technology found in FUJIFILM GFX100 II, using deep-learning-based subject detection to quickly and precisely analyze scenes. This enables the camera to maintain sharp focus, even with the large format sensor’s characteristic shallow depth-of-field. Pair it with the new FUJINON GF32-90mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR, and you get enhanced flexibility and responsiveness on set – an indispensable companion for any filmmaker.
