Cinema 5D interviewed Fujifilm Manager Jun Watanabe where they covered the Fujifilm X-H1 camera launch (recap via FujiAddict):
- Fujifilm now says the Fujifilm X-T2 is for “high amateurs”
- The Fujifilm X-H1 is for “professionals” shooting video and photos
- X-H1 AF has been improved for Sports
- They are targeting small low budget crews for Video
- ETERNA was developed because other Simulations were “too brilliant for extended viewing” which probably means saturated for film use.
- ETERNA has less color and smoother shadow tones.
- 8-bit was used because of technology and cost concerns
- The F-Log ETERNA LUT can be used for the X-H1( and X-T2)
- F-Log is being considered for a future Fujifilm X-T2 firmware update (which will make using ETERNA easier).
