"Paired with the right cinema lenses, the GFX100 could really shakeup the large format cinematography world that is accustomed to rigged up ARRI Alexas and REDs. Polonsky says, “The camera, although certainly not designed primarily as a motion picture device, did deliver some very interesting images, enough to make me wonder whether it would be possible to use it to make something a little more meaningful about this challenging year.”"

"There’s no shortage of full frame mirrorless cameras out there today, but a compact, affordable, large format camera for filmmakers is a relatively new concept. For productions that are accustomed to ARRI and RED packages, the Fujifilm GFX 100 is 1/10th the cost of an ARRI ALEXA LF or ALEXA 65, which is a rental-only camera. The GFX 100 retails for only $9,999, and the newly announced GFX 100S with the same sensor is priced at only $5,999. An ALEXA LF, meanwhile, is running close to $80,000"

Recorded in 4K ProRes RAW to an Atomos Ninja V from that dreadful micro HDMI port. Hopefully one day micro HDMI will have no place on cameras of this level, lol smh.
 
It is a little much to compare a proven $80,000 camera to a brand new photo camera that shoots video with a large sensor as being equal choices. Whatever. The images are nice but as often comes up these days, if this was secretly shot on another mirrorless camera, would anybody know? The micro HDMI is just too much. These camera companies or cartels are driving me crazy these days.
 
Eh, LF has 937mm2 sensor. Fuji 100/100s is 1,441. LF is more of a full frame camera (864), Fuji is medium format.

But Fuji line skips for 4K. Technically and technologically, the Sony-Fuji partnership can make a video-centric 4K/6K/8K medium format DSLR style camera and sell it at a reasonable price right now. But that's not in the cards for a few more years.
