The Fujifilm GFX100 II is a medium format mirrorless camera produced by Fujifilm with Fujifilm G-mount. It is the direct successor to the 2019 GFX100.[6]
The GFX100 II was announced on 12 September 2023 at the X Summit Global 2023.[7] Sales commenced in September 2023.
Camera body / battery
[edit]The GFX100 II has a noticeably smaller and slightly lighter body than the GFX100, mainly due to the fact that the vertical grip is now an optional add-on.[6] Whereas the GFX100 supports two batteries, the GFX100 II provides space for only one NP-W235 Li-ion type battery (same type as GFX100S). The GFX100 II body thus weighs 1,030 g with its single battery, one of two memory cards and EVF attached.[2] This is approximately 370 g lighter than the GFX100 body (1,400 g with two batteries, memory card and EVF).[8]
Viewfinder
[edit]The enhanced electronic viewfinder (EVF) (9.44 MP) is detachable, as that of the GFX100, and may be supplemented with an optional tilt accessory.[9]
Sensor
[edit]The Fujifilm GFX100 II uses a newly developed high-speed 43.8 x 32.9 mm medium format sensor with 100% phase-detection autofocus coverage. The 102 MP resolution is identical to that of its predecessor, Fujifilm GFX100. In combination with the enhanced image processing engine "X-Processor 5" the camera can deliver up to double the signal readout speed compared to the sensors employed by both predecessors (Fujifilm GFX100 and GFX100S).[4]
Stabilizer
[edit]The GFX100 II contains an in-body image stabilization (IBIS) mechanism with 5-axis stabilization. The manufacturer claims a shake compensation effect of up to 8.0 stops.[2]
Rear monitor / top screen
[edit]The 3.2 inch, 2.36 M pixel, three-way tilting, colour LCD, touch screen rear monitor is very similar to the GFX 100's. The 2.09 inch high-contrast monochrome top screen enables checking camera settings at a glance, even in bright sunlight, and may be customized to display display virtual dials (aperture, shutter speed, ISO), a live histogram, or other information.[10][11]
Dust and weather resistance
[edit]The build quality is high-class[12] with the manufacturer claiming enhanced dust and weather-resistant capabilities.[13] The camera is fully operative at temperatures from a maximum 40 °C to as low as -10 °C.[2]
Storage formats
[edit]Still images may now also be stored as HEIF format (4:2:2 10bit) besides JPEG, TIFF, and Raw (Fujifilm .RAF) formats.[2]
Pixel shift / multiple exposure / bracketing
[edit]The camera is equipped with a Pixel shift multi-shot capability, which allows its sensor to move incrementally thus enabling both true-colour and ultra-high resolution images (400 MP). It enables taking multiple exposures (up to 9 frames with a variety of overlay modes) and also supports 6 different bracketing modes (AE bracketing, film simulation bracketing, dynamic range bracketing, ISO sensitivity bracketing, white balance bracketing, focus bracketing).[2]
As opposed to the other straightforward bracketing modes focus bracketing comprises two distinct variants: manual and auto.[14]
- Manual focus bracketing: set time interval between shots, step size,[n 1] number of frames, and nearest focus position.
- Auto focus bracketing: set time interval between shots, define nearest focus point and then the most distant focus point. Step size and number of frames are calculated automatically.
Video
[edit]This camera is capable of recording 4K video using the full sensor and can also natively capture 8K video, albeit with a 1.53× crop, utilising a roughly 29 mm x 16 mm sized region of the sensor.[15]
- 4K video may be set to 16:9 or 17:9 output
- 8K video may be set to 16:9, 17:9, or 2.76:1 output
- Other intermediate and lower resolution modes available
Higher-quality codecs require either fast CFexpress Type B cards[16] or that video output be directly routed via USB-C cable to an external SSD.[17]
As to be expected for a high resolution medium format sensor, rolling shutter is more pronounced in comparison to lower resolution full frame sensors.[18]
Lenses
[edit]The native Fujifilm G-mount lenses manufactured by the Fujifilm company bear the official designation Fujinon GF, as inscribed on the perimeter of the lens barrel.[19] This Fujifilm G-mount table lists not only Fujinon lenses, but also G-mount-compatible lenses presented by other manufacturers.

Notes
[edit]- ^ The step size is the increment by which the focus point of the lens advances between shots.
