p.7 #1FR: GFX180 to have 180mp sensor
I can't wait for this camera.
I've been using the Phase 150mp for shooting ads and commercial jobs over the last few years - With that resolution I don't have to worry too much about extra extension plates. In many cases it lets me shoot a wider frame and just crop in for the required formats.
For on-location utility, the 100mp Fuji has already been a massive step up from Phase, but 180mp while benefiting from the Fuji body's superior usability, AF, and weather sealing sounds like bliss.
(EDIT: for the record my preferred format is 35mm film, but for some applications more is certainly more - in a good way)

I just wonder if lenses like the 45-100 will have enough resolving power for a 180mp sensor. With the 100mp sensor I treat the center portion of the frame as my standard full frame field of view, and then I know if they need a 9:16 or 4:5 crops I’m pretty well covered and lessens the amount of plates I need to shoot. The 9.76 million dot EVF on the GFX100ii definitely helps when shooting 20-30% wider for coverage though. Could barely see expressions on talent with the GFX100S lol. I wonder what’s next for EVF resolution…

I'd certainly be up for an updated *premium* version of the standard lens lengths - like the Phase blue ring lineup.

If it's 44x33, the pixel pitch will be insane.
If it's any bigger, you'll need new glass.
Either way, I don't think a single person that posts GFX photos on FM would benefit from this camera

That would be great. I usually shoot the 45-100 stopped down a bit, but find it a little soft wide open. An updated 32-64 that opens up to 2.8 would be sweet. Also a better constructed 100-200 that is at least f4 while they’re at it

It will be a 2.8um pixel pitch compared to 3.76um on the 100. Not exactly insane, lots of higher density small sensors exist.
The pixel uarch of this newer gen is stacked so faster AF and framerates which will benefit the vast majority on this forum.

Maybe you could be a little more Kermit and a little less Statler and Waldorf,!
