With this camera still very much under development since it was announced in November 2024, some of this information could be subject to change, but here is what we now know about the Fujifilm GFX Eterna following this year’s NAB Show in Las Vegas.
The Eterna is built around a large format sensor that measures 43.8 x 32.9mm, giving a huge 55mm diagonal measurement and making it taller than Arri Alexa 65. Fujifilm will be utilizing that extra space by enabling the Eterna to record in a 4K OpenGate video format. In terms of codecs, Fujifilm has only confirmed that it will be able to record in ProRes HQ, so far. One major advantage of having the larger imaging circle will be the ability to adapt the GFX mount to capture video in a multitude of aspect ratios.
