Electronic Variable ND Filter
GFX ETERNA 55 features a built-in electronic variable ND filter designed specifically for its large format sensor. With a range from ND0.6 to 2.1, it provides up to seven stops of light reduction with smooth, precise control in increments as fine as ND0.015.Thanks to Fujifilm’s proprietary precision engineering, this filter allows seamless and highly accurate density adjustments with minimal colour shift – even during movie recording.By instantly adapting to changing lighting conditions on set, it enables filmmakers to dial in their intended exposure swiftly, greatly enhancing efficiency.
Dual Base ISO
GFX ETERNA 55’s large format sensor, measuring 44x33mm, is approximately 1.7 times larger than a typical full-frame sensor. Its dual base ISOs of 800 and 3200 maximize performance, delivering smooth tonal gradations and exceptional low-noise capabilities.Even in challenging lighting conditions like shadows, backlighting, and night time scenarios, it minimizes the digital noise often associated with such conditions, faithfully recording the atmosphere of the scene. GFX ETERNA 55’s sensor is set to become a new well of inspiration for filmmakers.
Dynamic Range
GFX ETERNA 55’s wide range Log gamma, F-Log2 C, enables the large format sensor to achieve over 14 stops* of dynamic range.From deep shadows to bright highlights, it records the subtle nuances of light without compromise, allowing precise adjustments aligned with the creator’s vision in post-production.Combined with its wide colour gamut recording, this opens up virtually unlimited possibilities for expression in colour and contrast.
*When recorded in F-Log2 C, according to Fujifilm Internal testing.
Optical Low-Pass Filter
GFX ETERNA 55’s large format sensor is equipped with a specially designed optical low-pass filter (OLPF) that’s optimized for filmmaking. It employs a four-point separation method effectively reducing moiré and false colours. 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.
Autofocus
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 analyse 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.
PL Mount Adapter
In addition to the standard G Mount, GFX ETERNA 55 comes supplied with PL Mount Adapter G, allowing immediate use of PL Mount lenses without the need for additional accessories. The camera’s essence lies in honouring the creative aesthetic that lenses – including anamorphic ones – bring to your work.
5.0-inch Large LCD Monitor
Equipped with a 5.0-inch display, this camera boasts a high-resolution panel with 6.22 million dots, making it remarkably easy to check focus and colour accuracy – crucial for precise decisions on set.
With a 2000-nit brightness, the screen remains clear and visible even under bright outdoor lighting or harsh backlight. The display latency is reduced to an absolute minimum for smooth real-time monitoring and focus control, without lag or frustration. Moreover, the proprietary colour reproduction technology ensures faithful and consistent colour rendering, for easy calibration that helps maintain colour integrity throughout recording and post-production.
Dedicated Handle
A dedicated handle is included, designed for both ease of use and advanced functionality. On the side of the handle is a dial for focus, zoom, or iris control. When paired with electronically controlled lenses, these dials enable smooth, precise adjustments for real-time fine-tuning. Switching the dial to the ND setting allows you to smoothly adjust the density of the electronic variable ND filter on the fly. The handle base features a sliding rail system, allowing for quick and effortless repositioning of the balance point to accommodate changes in overall weight when attaching batteries or lenses.
Dual Side Monitor
To meet the practical needs of shooting environments, GFX ETERNA 55 is equipped with independent 3.0-inch LCD monitors on both sides of the body. These displays provide real-time information such as recording status, exposure, audio levels, and recording formats, allowing both the cinematographer and assistant to simultaneously monitor essential data – perfect for on-set collaboration.
Accessory Mounting Points
The top of the camera body and handle feature multiple accessory threads in two sizes (1/4in-20 and 3/8in-16) for easy attachment of accessories including monitors, microphones, and wireless transmitters.
This design eliminates the need for additional external rigs, streamlining the setup process.
Connector Ports
In addition to 12G-SDI and HDMI video output terminals, GFX ETERNA 55 is equipped with a wide range of professional-grade interfaces including GENLOCK, REMOTE, 12V DC power port, and LENS connector.
These support multi-camera setups, external control, and lens servo power supply, enabling flexible system configurations on set. Furthermore, all connectors are protected by sturdy guards designed to prevent physical damage.
Button Layout
The control buttons are thoughtfully arranged to allow seamless operation without interrupting the shoot.In addition to seven customizable buttons, there are a total of 12 buttons integrated with the GUI on both side monitors. This setup enables intuitive and efficient camera operation, even for solo operators.
Weather-Resistant Body
In addition to delivering high image quality and performance, GFX ETERNA 55 is also built to withstand harsh environments. The entire body features a dust- and water-resistant construction (except for V-Mount battery attachment terminal), making it reliable for use in challenging conditions such as dusty locations or sudden weather changes on outdoor sets.
Battery
GFX ETERNA 55 is designed to accommodate both V-Mount and Fujifilm’s NP-W235 batteries. While using a V-Mount battery as the main power source, the NP-W235 battery can be mounted simultaneously, enabling hot-swapping of the V-Mount battery without interrupting power during shooting*1. Additionally, the NP-W235 battery alone provides approximately 30 minutes*2 of continuous operation, offering flexible options for short shoots or situations requiring reduced weight, such as drone or gimbal mounting.
