X100VI's bigger brother?

The new GFX100RF is the brand's first digital medium-format camera with a built-in lens, and it weighs 735 grams. The body's top plate is primarily made from a precision-machined single aluminium block. 

It features a 102MP CMOS II sensor and the X-Processor 5 image-processing engine that saves photos and videos to dual SD card slots. At the back are the 3.15-inch 2.1 million-dot 2-axis tilt screen and the 0.84x 5.76 million-dot EVF.

Built into the camera is the FUJINON GF 35mm f/4.0 which is equivalent to a 28mm in 35mm format. It also comes with a 4-stop ND filter. Included in the box is the adapter ring which allows users to attach the PRF-49 protector filter which completes the weather sealing of the camera.

In front is the new Digital Tele-converter selector which allows quick and intuitive change from the native 35mm (28mm equivalent) to 45mm (36mm equivalent), 64mm (50mm equivalent) and 80mm (63mm equivalent). It has a leaf shutter instead of a focal plane shutter which allows for higher flash sync speeds and has shortened the back focus which allows for shorter minimum focus distance.

It is the first digital camera from FUJIFILM to feature an 'Aspect Ratio' dial on the back. To take advantage of its large sensor, the new dial allows users to switch between 3:2, 1:1, 3:4, 17:6, 65:24 and more.

The camera can capture up to 4K/30 4:2:2 10-bit video recording at 30fps at F-Log 2. It is compatible with Frame.io camera to cloud service. Video and still images can be uploaded directly to Frame.io.

Powering the camera is the same battery first introduced on the X-T4 but because of the lack of IBIS, the GFX100RF's battery is rated for over 820 shots.

Inside the box are the camera, the aluminium lens hood, the adapter ring, USB-C cable and a new rope strap.
