ALPA XO Exoskeleton for Fujifilm GFX100 Unveiled

ALPA just announced the ALPA XO Exoskeleton for Fujifilm GFX100:

ALPA XO, the high-end exoskeleton for the brand new Fujifilm GFX 100 camera. ALPA introduces the extraordinary ALPA XO line, which supports the new generation of medium format cameras for still and moving images. The first series of products will include the ALPA XO exoskeleton, top handle and professional adapter for PL and LPL cine lenses. Of course, everything will be modular and flexible in ALPA style.

Filmmakers use camera cages to add various kinds of accessories to their rig. With ALPA XO, they can attach handles, matte boxes, follow- and remote focus systems, field monitors, recorders and wireless video solutions to match their creative vision. Even without the need for accessories and other lens mounts, the XO-cage will reinforce and protect your camera in every situation.

Just one week after the official launch of the Fujfifilm GFX 100, you can see the prototypes of the ALPA XO Exoskeleton for the Fujifilm GFX 100 at CineGear 2019 in Los Angeles at the booth of Fujifilm and Samy’s. On the latter also together with the ALPA Switar Cine Prime Lenses.

Fujifilm GFX100 Assembly – 860 pieces for 1 Great Camera!

Last week DRPreivew brought us inside the pre-production Fujifilm GFX100 assembly line, where the Fujifilm GFX100 is manufactured by hand.

Today, while scrolling through the very active Fujifilm GFX group, I noticed this post by Ken from Channel X, that gives us a few more interesting pictures from inside the assembly line.

Does current IBIS fit in Fujifilm X-T4? And GFX100 IBIS in GFX50R / 50S

Fujifilm IBIS

Back in March 2018, I have used Fujifilm technical X-H1 IBIS scetches and put them into the Fujfiilm X-T2. See the article here.

The result was the image you see above.

It’s my pleasure to see that over one year later, the topic is coming up again (better late than never), so I am glad to share it again with you.

The Fujfilm X-T4, if it keeps the size of the X-T3 and X-T2, will have a hard time to fit IBIS into its body. But Fujifilm has repeated many times, that they are working to make IBIS smaller.

And since we talk IBIS…

I had a personal curiosity to see how the Fujifilm GFX100 IBIS unit fits in the Fujifilm GFX 50S and Fujifilm GFX 50R.

So I took the IBIS unit displayed at the Fujifilm GFX100 live stream event, and mounted it on the Fujifilm GFX50R/S.

As you can see below, the IBIS unit is too big for both cameras, but not by a large margin. So there is hope that, with further development, the next generation IBIS will be small enough to make it fit also in the GFX R and GFX S line of cameras.

Fujifilm GFX100: No IBIS/OIS Combo, X-H1 vs GFX IBIS, Fujifilm GFX 100 Media Sheets, F-Log and More

In a recent interview, Fujifilm managers unveiled that it took them 3 years to develop the IBIS mechanism for the Fujifilm GFX100.

1.5 years were shared with the Fujifilm X-H1 IBIS mechanism development. But once the IBIS for X-H1 was ready, it took them additional 1.5 years for Fujifilm GFX100 IBIS.

At Fujikina 2019 in Toyko, Fujifilm displayed the ASP-C and MF IBIS units. You can see the difference in the image below.

Imaging-resource also shared a video and some GFX100 media slides. They say:

  • IBIS and OIS do not work together. Could change in future with firmware update, as it happened with Fujifilm X-H1
  • 4K@30p full sensor readout, but uses line skipping in vertical direction

The Fujifilm X-H1 IBIS looks small next to the Fujifilm GFX100 one. However, the X-H1 IBIS is still too big. It’s one of Fuji’s priorities to make it even smaller in order to give us a smaller Fujifilm X-H2, or maybe even fit it into a future Fujifilm X-T4 and X-T40 or any other camera that might come down the road.

Top Selling Fujifilm X/GFX Deals for May – Last Week to Save up to $1,000

These are your the top selling Fujifilm deals on FujiRumors. They are not representative for overall Fujifilm sales.

Top Software

  1. Capture One Pro 12 (save 50%)
  2. Adobe Creative Cloud
  3. Luminar

Capture One keeps up rocking and selling like hot cakes. No one comes even close to that. Adobe made it into the ranking thanks to a good deal running in May.

Top Lenses

  1. XF 55-200mm f/3.5-4.8
  2. XF 50mm f/2
  3. XF 23mm f/1.4

A revival for the good old XF 55-200mm f/3.5-4.8, a lens I own and love, and I am sure people who purchased it will be happy. However, my sample is not used that much anymore, since the XF 18-135mm joined my lens line-up.

Top Third Party Lenses

  1. Viltrox 85mm f/1.8 AF
  2. Samyang 12mm f/2
  3. Meike Neewer 35mm F1.2

The Viltrox 85mm f/1.8 autofocus lens for Fujifilm X enjoyed a positive start amongst the FujiRumors community. Second the evergreen Samyang 12mm f/2.Third is the ultra-cheap Meike Neewer 35mm f/1.2.

Top Cameras

  1. Fujifilm X-T3
  2. Fujifilm X100F
  3. Fujifilm X-Pro2

Back in March, the new low retail price on Fujifilm X-H1 pushed Fuji’s only IBIS X series camera on the top of ranking. Sadly it was just a short moment of glory. It has now fallen back. The Fujifilm X-T3 takes back the throne, followed by the Fujifilm X100F and X-Pro2.

Top GFX Gear

The price is attractive, and the Fujifilm GFX 50R sales continue better than the Fujifilm GFX 50S sales, despite the latter having a new lower retail price.
