Fuji X Cinema Line?


PebbleByTheSea

Recommended Posts

Hello one and all,

I'm a full time photographer and videographer Fuji XT4 user, I occasionally hire Fuji GFX cameras so have experience with Fuji GFX 100 and 50s. I however have 2 x Sony A9's where I work and came up using Canon. The Fuji system is undoubtably my favourite system for photography, as brilliant and workable as the XT4 is for video it does fall a little short in some areas, I love the lenses from Fuji  and have invested a fair bit. It is frustrating as someone that is considering stepping up my video work I would have to get a new set on Lenses when XT4 only falls short in a couple areas.

I think if Fuji focused on a Cinema camera with some of the existing tech in there XT4 but with a smaller Megapixel sensor that performs better in Low Light (perhaps a dual gain output set to 640 and 6400?) and 4:4:2 10 BIT internal or even RAW internal, 4K 120P, internal ND's Perhaps, a boxier cine cam style body, they would have a truly amazing product (Could almost look to the digital bolex for some inspo). If they kept it around the £2200 - $2500 mark and the less photographic style body, I don't think it would compete with the existing Fuji Line up.

Do you think Fuji would ever consider making a completely video centric line like the Sony A7s range or even FX line or C70 Canon Camera?

This is my first time writing on the forum, just wanted to put this out there as a thought

it will definitely look great if fujifilm start a cinema line ,with vintage design and more boxed shape like the red komodo with inbuilt fan etc... to record continuously for a few hour's ,but a miniaturized and vintage styled . a budget cinema line with ,it would be a hit ,since most of the people these day's are shifting to video and most camera's in the starting range doesn't have the design which is more video inclined and also everyone's interested in quality video , 4k 120p , 240fps 1080 etc.. is pretty much common , but most camera's due to the mini design can't record long , so shifting to box like design with cooling system ,look's like a popular line , if fujifilm does it !
