he FUJIFILM GFX ETERNA 55 redefines large-format digital cinema by combining Fujifilm’s renowned image science with a purpose-built cinema workflow that appeals to filmmakers, directors of photography, and rental houses alike. Available for rent in Thailand, Fuji ETERNA 55 is engineered from the ground up to serve high-end narrative, documentary, commercial, and music video productions — offering cinematic latitude, deep color control, and flexible lens compatibility.
At the heart of the camera is a 43.8 × 32.9 mm GFX 102MP CMOS II HS sensor — one of the largest and tallest sensors available for motion capture. Its immense surface area enables truly cinematic depth of field, expansive dynamic range, and support for multiple shooting formats, from classic 4:3 open gate to 35 mm and anamorphic modes.
With a rugged yet compact body (~2 kg), professional control surfaces, dual side displays, and a rich set of recording features, the ETERNA 55 is crafted to handle demanding production schedules without compromise.
Thailand is a high-volume production environment where efficiency, consistency, and color reliability matter. Fujifilm cameras are widely used by local and international filmmakers shooting in Thailand due to their stable performance in heat and humidity, accurate skin tones, and film-oriented color science that reduces time in post-production. From commercial and branded content to documentaries and narrative projects, Fujifilm systems integrate smoothly into fast-moving crews working across Bangkok, Phuket, Chiang Mai, and island locations. For productions operating on real locations with tight schedules, Fujifilm offers a practical, professional solution that prioritizes image quality, manageable file sizes, and predictable results on set.
For Thailand camera rental productions, the FUJI GFX ETERNA cinema camera integrates smoothly with the local rental ecosystem and supports a wide range of professional cinema lenses. The camera pairs effectively with DuLens, DZOFilm, and Blazar anamorphic or spherical lenses in 35mm mode, allowing productions to choose specific optical character while maintaining full coverage and compatibility. This flexibility makes the FUJIFILM GFX ETERNA a cost-efficient and adaptable solution for filmmakers shooting in Thailand who require reliable camera performance and diverse lens options from Bangkok-based and nationwide rental houses.
Cinematic Features Filmmakers Care About
Large-Format Sensor with Cinematic Depth and Detail
The medium-format sensor used in the ETERNA 55 isn’t just large for stills — it’s designed to capture cinematic motion with remarkable tonality and spatial richness. The sensor size (1.7× taller than a 35 mm full-frame sensor) unlocks:
-
expanded perspective and shallow depth of field
-
enhanced highlight roll-off and smooth transitions
-
truly immersive image quality with rich, nuanced textures
This makes it ideal for fashion films, narrative shorts, branded content, and anywhere you want a distinct visual signature.
Flexible Multi-Format Capture
The ETERNA 55 supports multiple motion formats from the same sensor:
-
4:3 Open Gate up to 48 fps
-
Premista
-
35 mm
-
Anamorphic (35 mm)
-
Super35
This flexibility enables directors and DPs to choose formats that best serve their visual narrative — from cinematic widescreen to anamorphic storytelling.
Professional Recording and Color Workflow
EFI Cinema production demands robust capture formats and flexibility in post:
-
F-Log2 / F-Log2 C with 14+ stops dynamic range
-
Apple ProRes 422 HQ, 422, 422 LT & H.265/HEVC
-
10-bit 4:2:2 uncompressed output and up to 8K/30 p 12-bit RAW via HDMI
-
3D-LUT support (16 LUTs stored, 20 film simulations) for in-camera looks and creative control
-
Film Simulation profiles tuned for cinematic character — including ETERNA and ETERNA Bleach Bypass — that deliver pleasing tones, smooth skin rendering, and a filmic baseline for grading.
These capabilities allow productions to deliver broadcast-quality footage, conform to studio pipelines, and preserve detail across wide exposure ranges.
Built-In Professional Tools
The ETERNA 55 is equipped for real production environments:
-
Electronic Variable ND filter for seamless exposure control without neutral density gels
-
Dual-Base ISO (800 / 3200) for quiet images in both bright and low light
-
4-point Optical Low-Pass Filter to reduce moiré and false color
-
CFexpress Type B + SD media support for flexible recording strategies
-
Dual side monitors including a bright 2000-nit 5″ display for confidence on sunny locations
-
Timecode In/Out, GenLock, SDI/HDMI outputs for multi-camera and professional rig integration
-
Comprehensive network, remote, and Frame.io Camera to Cloud workflows for modern production pipelines.
What This Means on Set
For productions shooting in Thailand — bustling cityscapes in Bangkok, beachside narratives in Phuket or Samui, or historic visuals in Chiang Mai and Pattaya — the ETERNA 55 delivers:
-
a large, expressive image quality that stands apart from traditional full-frame cinema cameras
-
wide creative latitude for both graded and natural workflows
-
professional production features that reduce setup complexity and power transitions during species workflows
Its sensor size and format flexibility make it particularly attractive for anamorphic shooting, 8K captures, and cinematic panoramas where texture and depth are priorities.
