how many bit in GFX the files ?

[honsonyip]

Just want to  know  the bits rate in the GFX files ?

 

Thx !

[cosinaphile]

a whole lot

14 bit I believe.

Yes 14bit, confirmed by Fuji guys.

At this point, most sensors are 14-bit capable. While the sensors in Hasselblads are 14-bit, it has been said that they pad the files and advertise that they are 16-bit. This is marketing, not engineering.

 

12-bit image files can store up to 68 billion different colours and 14-bit image files store up to 4 trillion. As a point of reference, all JPEGs are limited to 8-bits and if produced with skill can look terrific. The human eye is only capable of distinguishing between 2.5 and 16.8 million different colors and that is covered by JPEGS. Nothing wrong with shooting 14-bit files, but don't expect to see an improvement unless the image is horribly underexposed.

The crazy thing is that apparently the new ability to generate TIFF files in camera will only generate... 8-bit TIFFs! Pentax DSLRs have been doing that for half a decade.
