Description

Offering the perfect mix of accessibility and flexibility, the GFX 50S II from FUJIFILM is a unique medium format mirrorless camera that is wonderfully compact and portable. Featuring a 51.4MP CMOS sensor paired with an improved X-Processor 4 image processor, this camera produces files with extremely wide dynamic range and high resolution, as well as having an extended sensitivity range of ISO 50-102400 for working in difficult lighting conditions. The sensor’s large form factor also achieves a unique three-dimensional look with especially smooth tonal and color transitions.

The GFX 50S II has also been updated with a five-axis in-body image stabilization system that negates up to 6.5 stops of camera shake for improved handheld shooting, providing dramatically broad creative possibilities for image makers wanting to work more freely with slower shutter speeds. For composing images a 3.69m-dot electronic viewfinder can be used for high-resolution eye-level viewing, and a rear 3.2″ 2.36m-dot touchscreen LCD features a three-way tilting design that supports working from high and low angles. Additionally, the GFX 50S II offers a magnesium alloy build that is both lightweight and durable and is also dust- and weather-sealed, as well as freezeproof down to 14°F, for working in harsh environmental conditions.

51.4MP CMOS Sensor and X-Processor 4
Utilizing a large, 43.8 x 32.9mm 51.4MP CMOS sensor and an improved X-Processor 4, the GFX 50S II is capable of delivering high-resolution, 14-bit stills with a broad sensitivity range of ISO 100-12800, which can be extended to ISO 50-102400. The large size of each pixel allows for more efficient light gathering, too, for smoother tonal and color transitions to produce a characteristic three-dimensional “medium format look.” Also contributing to several medium format looks, a variety of traditional medium and large format aspect ratios can be used in addition to the standard 4:3, including 1:1, 65:24, 5:4, 7:6, 3:2, and 16:9. The image processor and sensor also permit shooting continuously up to 3 fps or for recording Full HD 1080p video at 29.97, 25, 24, and 23.98 fps frame rates.

Sensor-Shift Image Stabilization
Standing out from its predecessor, the GFX 50S II features an in-body image stabilization system that provides up to an impressive 6.5 stops of five-axis stabilization. This provides dramatically broad possibilities for image makers wanting to work more freely with slow shutter speeds.

117-Point Autofocus System
Complimenting the updated image processor is a 117-point autofocus system enabling razor-sharp responses, whether subject tracking or picking out a face in a crowd. An improved autofocusing algorithm boosts focusing performance in all modes, including face and eye detection.

Additional Camera Features
The FUJIFILM G lens mount features a short focal flange distance of just 26.7mm to better facilitate adapting lenses and to allow for reduced back focusing distances to better prevent vignetting and promote edge-to-edge sharpness with the GF series of lenses.
Film Simulation modes allow you to reproduce the look and feel of 19 of FUJIFILM’s film types, including Provia, Velvia, Astia, Eterna, Classic Chrome, Classic Neg., Pro Neg. Hi, Pro Neg. Standard, Acros, Monochrome, and Sepia. Additionally, Grain Effect can be adjusted as well as Classic Chrome effect to fine-tune the look of imagery.

Key Features and Benefits:

  • FUJINON GF lenses
    Fujifilm developed the FUJINON GF lenses as a system for photographers, that require even higher image quality, than can be covered by the current lineup.
  • Image quality
    The high level of photographic image quality is produced by the integration of a large CMOS sensor and image design technology, cultivated by Fujifilm’s history.
  • Small, lightweight body
    Fujifilm GFX 50S overturns common perceptions of traditional medium-format digital cameras with a small, lightweight body, made of magnesium alloy and equipped with an ultra-high definition detachable EVF, adopting a 3.69M-dot organic EL panel.
  • Improved focal plane shutter
    The focal plane shutter has been developed specifically for the mirrorless camera. While achieving a maximum shutter speed, a flash synchronization speed and high performance and durability with a shutter endurance, supporting multiple shots, the camera also achieves low vibration and a quiet shutter noise.
  • Shoot high-quality movies
    Users can shoot high-quality movies, making use of the excellent color reproduction thanks to the shallow depth of field, that is unique to large sensors and Film Simulation modes.
  • High resolving power and rich tone reproduction
    Dedicated G mount FUJINON GF lenses inherit the design philosophy of reputable XF lenses, achieving extremely high resolving power and rich tone reproduction. In addition to the A (auto) Position setting, a C (command dial) Position has been added, allowing for the aperture value to be changed even from the camera body.
