Surprise? Fujifilm GFX100 II Sensor Could be Even Faster than we Thought (Anonymous Source)

So guys.

I can confirm it.

The Fujifilm GFX100 II will come with a new 100 megapixel sensor.

Now, in our previous rumors we told you it would be based on the sensor architecture of the Sony A6700/FX30 sensor. Hence a BSI sensor that is faster to read out than previous generation of BSI sensor (in use on X-T4, X-S20, GFX100S, GFX100 etc).

But now an anonymous source reached out to us and told us that the Fujifilm GFX100 II will use a different design compared to the A6700/FX30 sensor.

The source said that while the A6700/FX30 offers a 10-20% speed increase over the conventional BSI sensor, this new sensor in use on the GFX100 II will offer up to 50% increase in readout speed.

And just to be clear, we are not talking about a stacked sensor, but an improved BSI sensor, hence this also fits with the rumor we shared earlier.

Now, this information comes from an anonymous sources, so it has to be taken with a grain of salt.

In any case we can be sure that it is indeed a new sensor and we can expect overall speed improvements on the Fujifilm GFX100 II.

Then, how much faster it is to read out, we will find out on September 12.

Fujifilm GFX100 II has no D-Pad

According to our trusted sources, the Fujifilm GFX100 II has no D-Pad.

Now, I was one of guys who most annoyed by Fujifilm’s move to remove the D-Pad on several of its cameras (my X-E3 and GFX100S have no D-Pad). But over time I got used to it (the joystick works wondefully to move around in the menu) and I am fine having no D-Pad.

But sure, I am also not that kind of photographer who needs to set 15 custom FN-buttons. I totally understand if the lack of D-Pad is more annoying for other photographers than it is for me.

LEAKED: Fujifilm GFX100 II Price – Surprised?

Despite having an all new sensor (never used on any X or GFX camera before).

Despite having the new X Processor 5

Despite having many of new features and some of them not even available on the most modern X series camera (see leaked specs below).

Despite inflation and parts shortage.

Despite all that, the Fujifilm GFX100 II will come with a price tag lower than the one of the orginial Fujifilm GFX100.

Much lower.

In fact, according to our sources, the price of the Fujifilm GFX100II will be of $7,499.

I think that’s a good price for this camera.

And if I look at the recent GFX100 II price survey we did, we can say that this price surprises 90%, because:

  • 47% of you thought the camera would cost more
  • 10% guessed the right price
  • 43% expected it to be more affordable

I am definitely in the camp of those people, who thought it would cost a bit more than $7,500.

Sunday Speculation: How Much do You Think the Fujifilm GFX100 II will Cost? – VOTE NOW

Do you have time this Sunday to speculate a bit around?

Yes?

Nice… so the question is this one:

How much do YOU think the Fujifilm GFX100 II will cost?

I recommend to take a look at the rumored specs below, and then let us know how much you think it will cost by voting the survey.

Why the range from $4,000 to $10,000?

Well, I’ve simply looked the price of all GFX cameras that are still available on the market and decided to start the survey at the price of the most affordable one, the GFX50SII at $4,000 and end it with the most expensive one, the GFX100 at $10,000.

If you want to go beyond that range, you can still vote for “less than $4,000” or “more than $10,000”.

BUT KEEP IN MIND:

This is a survey on how much YOU THINK it will cost based on the leaked specs, and not on how much YOU HOPE it will cost.

My Best and Most Realistic Guess as far as the Fujifilm GFX100 II Price Goes (Body Only) is...
