INTRIGUING: Fujifilm GFX100RF Rumored to Feature Unique Aspect Ratio Dial

The fixed-lens Fujifilm GFX is on its way, and it looks like it will introduce a fresh innovation to the Fujifilm X/GFX series that’s bound to catch the attention of manual control enthusiasts like me.

According to new information from my sources the Fujifilm GFX100RF will feature a new dedicated aspect ratio dial on the back of the camera.

Of course it is too early to judge this new feature/dial. We haven’t seen or used it yet. However, for those who appreciate a tactile experience with as many manual controls as possible, this addition has the potential to be quite intriguing.

But for now I suspend my judgment, even though you can call me intrigued by it.

But there might be even more in the pipeline. Maybe even some I could not see coming, just as it was the case of the Fujifilm GFX Eterna.

My best guess so far is that it could be the Fujifilm GFX100RF fixed lens camera or the Fujifilm GFX Eterna. But that’s just a guess. And in fact it does not really matter which codename which camera has. There will always be a codename because there will always be a camera coming.
