Technical drawings of the modular Fujifilm GFX have been circulating on the web since a while now, for example here at weibo.
The modular GFX is a concept first displayed at the Fujifilm X summit in Dubai and we talked about it extensively here.
Zack Arias also shared a hands on video with a prototype.
Down below are all the images shared at weibo.

I originally shared this part of Elia’s video in this article, but then quickly saw, that it actually deserves a post for its own.
Take this article as tribute to Minami-San the color guru inside Fujifilm, since he is the person, who developed the original Fujifilm film stock and is now responsible for how the film simulations in new digital cameras perfectly match the original film stock.
Here is an excerpt from episode 5 of Elias “moments in time” series. The talk with Fuji’s color guru starts at minute 8:28.
I thought it is interesting to see the guy, who makes so many Fujifilm X and GFX shooters happy, by putting his working live into the science of colors.

Elia Locardi is currently releasing a beautiful series of “moments in time” videos.
We can’t cover them all here, so we will focus only on episode 6, where he sits down with Fujifilm managers at dinner.
Check out the video down below.

HANG ON ONE MORE SENTENCE: To all other fellow FR-readers, whatever you spot that could be of interest for the Fuji community, you can send it to me via email (fujirumor@gmail.com), anonymous rumor box (on the right side of the page), or even personal message on facebook, twitter or instagram. As much effort as I put into FR, I simply can’t spot everything. Hence, your support is vital for keeping FR fast, fresh and interesting.
DPReview published their full Fujifilm GFX100 review.
It’s not a perfect camera, but from the image quality point of view, it is simply the best camera DPReview has ever tested.
Senior editor Barney Britton says:
“The GFX 100 is the first medium format camera I’ve ever used – film or digital – which doesn’t feel like a compromise. In almost all respects, the GFX 100 handles like a professional DSLR, but with all of the benefits of mirrorless, plus excellent 4K video capabilities and the unimpeachable image quality offered by a cutting-edge sensor. It’s not perfect, and it’s not cheap, but if I was a working professional photographer I’d buy a GFX 100 in a heartbeat.“
Compared to other high resolution cameras:
“Having said that the GFX 100 significantly outperforms full frame cameras, we should still consider the Panasonic Lumix DC-S1R, since it’s able to shoot and combine multiple shots in order to offer resolution and light capture (and hence tonal quality) comparable to a larger sensor. But, while it does so in a smaller, lighter body and doesn’t have any phase detection elements to limit its usable dynamic range, its multi-shot mode only gets its best results when tripod-mounted, and applied to static subjects (and its use of electronic shutter limits its use with strobes). For most high-res applications, the GFX is the simpler, stronger, and yes, more expensive option. […]
If you need the quality it brings, the Phase One will outperform the Fujifilm, but if you can put up with the (sensational) image quality of the Fujifilm, then its smaller size, image stabilization, increased battery life, attractive JPEGs and video capabilities make it a much more flexible tool for considerably less money.“
