The GFX100 II is the logical evolution of the previous flagship model and meets the highest demands in professional photography and video production. It features superior image quality with rich tonal values and clear plasticity, as well as a remarkable increase in performance in continuous shooting, autofocus and video recording.
The camera is equipped with the newly developed GFX 102 megapixel CMOS II HS sensor and the powerful X-Processor 5, and processes sensor data twice as fast as the previous model. It also features Scene Recognition AF based on Deep Learning technology and is the first camera in the GFX series to feature an advanced AF algorithm for calculating anticipated subject movement.
The continuous shooting speed has been increased from the current five frames per second to eight frames per second. The new camera is thus particularly recommended for use in reportage and sports photography. Improved image quality is provided, among other things, by the introduction of ISO 80 as the standard sensitivity, and a new film simulation can be selected with "REALA ACE".
The new image sensor enables extended video functions. The GFX100 II films internally in 4K 10-bit 4:2:2 up to 60p and is the first GFX camera to support 8K video recording up to 30p. It also supports a range of lens types and their associated recording formats.
The GFX100 II offers improved hardware features and advanced workflow functions. The camera has a five-axis image stabiliser (IBIS) that provides a sharpness advantage of up to eight EV stops, as well as a high-resolution viewfinder with 9.44 million pixels and 1.0x magnification. The body has an Ethernet port as well as HDMI Type A and USB C ports for additional connectivity. New design features include a larger sub-display with improved graphical user interface, a slightly tilted top and a more grippy body shell. The camera also supports the Frame.io | Camera to Cloud service and timecode synchronisation with ATOMOS AirGlu BT.
